    Q&A for SWFA SS 6x MQ Field Eval

    Another LRHS hoarder here. Mostly because SWFA's are impossible to get up here in Canada, especially now with the Covid shortages. The LRHS's are easier to find, so any time one comes up I try and snag it. I, too, admit that I would never touch the Bushnell if it weren't for the Rokslide...

    What kind of skinning knife do you use and why?

    I went in a weird circle. Started with a Buck 110, did a bunch of fancy-steel fixed blades ($$$), then the Havalon scalpel stuff. Wound up settling on these paring knives for a skinning knife. A whole $9, easy to sharpen, light weight, and a good tool. Did my whole elk with one last year. Rides...

    Ethics in hunting, the story of my once in a lifetime Buck....

    Well these showed up. If anyone wants one, PM your details. They are shipped from the Great White North, so who knows how long it'll take to get to Yankee Land. Wish the green wasn't butchered, certainly wasn't that colour in the original test. Oh well, adds character. Who doesn't love...

    It wasn’t Talley - it’s apparently me. Scope won’t stay fixed - Update: fixed. Added to first post

    This is the part that I learned late. How do you want to spend your time? Tinkering? Testing? Driving back and forth to the range to try a new combo? Or do you want to hunt and spend time in the field? Buy good gear, buy gear that stays zeroed, buy gear that can take a ding or two and keep...

    Ethics in hunting, the story of my once in a lifetime Buck....

    Made some adjustments last night. Figured it was worth a bit more effort. Ordered 25x this AM. Supposed to show up mid September. When they are here I'll hit up the thread again to see if anyone wants one.

    Done, give me a bit. I'm on my phone right now, so ill need go bust out my laptop for this beauty. No postage needed. I owe Rokslide and Formidilosus. This will be me paying it forward.

    SWFA is good for all things hunting. Mostly cause it doesn't break or do weird stuff. No such thing as overkill. (Just wish the jokers in Texas would ship direct to Canada...) I'm gonna leave this here again. Total cost is roughly $90. It'll solve your problem, with zero dicking around. No...

    Lightweight rear rifle rest

    I can't be the only one using my bino harness as a rear rest?

    Dude, don't give up yet. Get some bases here. Rings here. Bust out your loctite and allen key, and get it done. If it doesn't work, return the bases, and I'll buy the rings from you. Edit: Just saw your most recent post. Good luck at the range!

    Members opinions of the Winchester Mod. 70?

    I see that I failed to upload the cool pics... I'll see what I can come up with later tonight.

    Bushnell LRTSi 4.5-18x44 Drop test/mini eval

    Heck yes. I'm excited to see this become a standard thing. The hunting world will learn about these Well Known Roksliders who drop perfectly good rifles and optics in the name of Science.

    Elk .243 or 25-06

    Wait what? "Fling shots at paper"? Is that what practice is called these days? Or are you saying that firing 20 rounds is simply an unreasonable expectation of anyone? What does a range session look like for you? I'm concerned that you are taking the Fudd joke (buying a box of 20 rounds, and...

    Elk .243 or 25-06

    This is just my own anecdotal experience: -- I'm a great shot off the bench. Itty-bitty groups. Very much a stud. Yay me. -- I suck balls at this drill. You can see a few of my performances in that thread. It's savage how poorly I've done. -- For some reason I always shoot the 223 better than...

    Equipment versus practice posts and Rifle practice/shooting

    yup, try an "interval timer." Used for boxing or for air bike circuits. I usually set mine for 15 seconds count down, then 1 min to do my thing, then BEEP. (Then usually followed by swearing.)
