As far as being made to last, one of my friends dads shoots a bow from the late 90’s so I don’t think that’s necessarily true. Your second and third points definitely make sense. I didn’t think about the size aspect. I also think you could say the same about the way rifles have changed since the...
I’ve thought a lot lately about how quickly bows lose their value. Just today I saw a guy selling an RX5 in great condition on Facebook for $600. After just three years, he’s selling it for 1/3 of what he paid for it.
Quality guns might lose 10-15% of their value when they’re first shot, but...
Selling my Steiner MPS red dot for pistol. It uses the Aimpoint Acro footprint so it’s compatible with most pistols. I bought this for my P90, but with the price of ammo I couldn’t get myself to shoot it so I ended up selling the P90. Now I have no use for the P90. Looking to get $400 for it...
Selling a Redding 300 Win Mag 3 Die Deluxe reloading die set. It comes with competition bullet seater with micrometer, full length sizing die, and neck sizing die. I’ve loaded about 150 rounds with these and the ammo shot really well, but I no longer have a 300 WM rifle so the dies don’t do me...

For me, all that really matters is how they fit, how flexible they are, the tread they have, and how heavy they are. I feel like you can get a pretty good idea of how they’re going to work on the mountain from a simple walk around the living room. Obviously they’ll work a bit differently once...
I had this same question earlier this year. A friend of mine used to do taxidermy for a living so I sought out his opinion on doing one myself. In fewer words, his opinion was “don’t”.
He said it’s not hard to do, but takes a lot of practice to do well. He said the first few mounts he did he...
I see you made your decision already, but in case anyone else is reading I’ll throw my vote towards ProEar Classics. They aren’t cheap but quite a bit cheaper than the Tetras and they’re pretty darn close to nothing at all as far as hearing goes. I can hear wings, my dog in the weeds, and...
I’m a few years from being able to afford a sheep hunt so take my opinion with a grain of salt. I really like your idea for pricing structure. If I go on a guided hunt, I have no issue paying out for a well prepared outfitter. I’ve heard enough horror stories from some older guys I know though...
It’ll be interesting to see how successful this is. I don’t think anyone has issues spending that kind of money on gear if they think it gives them an advantage.
I think the best justification for a suppressor came last year when a double came in upwind. One was shot at 50ish yards, expected the other to turn and run but he kept working the call like nothing happened and allowed an easy shot. I know that’s an extreme example, but that would give me...
I’m in the market for a muzzle brake for a new rifle. It’s a Seekins Havak PH2 chambered in 6.5 PRC. As it’s a hunting rifle, I’d like something a little lighter like the SRS Ti brakes, but recoil reduction is my first priority. I’ve heard good things about the Area 419 Hellfire as well. I...
