    Do Swarovski spotters ever go on sale?

    Once again Cameraland sealed the deal for me.

    K4 Nalgene Holder

    It does take a little getting used to it, but I think it works fine. I assume it will eventually stretch, but maybe not.

    Tikkas and Suppressors

    I had my 300WSM cut to 22" with a thread adapter. Used the same hand load with stock barrel and equal accuracy. I've since sold the 300, just because I no longer see the need for a 300 magnum.

    Need a coat warmer than the Kenai Hooded Jacket.

    I have taken this route before. I'm looking for something for sitting and glassing, but maybe this is still the answer.

    Need a coat warmer than the Kenai Hooded Jacket.

    Currently the Kenai is my warmest coat. What's the next step up in insulation? Doesn't have to be Kuiu, FL or Sitka, open to any brand.

    Solo Mule Deer hunting in WA

    They have figured it out. It mostly boils down to lack of winter range, which is primarily on private land. Then you throw in all the cougars and bears, and it's a receipt for massive herd decline.

    6.5 PRC Build on Sportsman 78 Action Questions

    I'm in the same boat as you, except I'm going 7mm. I have brass for the 7SAUM and 280AI. My concern is feeding a short action cartridge out of a long action. Should talk to a smith but I haven't yet. I received my 78 .270 34 years ago. Have used it on multiple deer and a couple of bear.

    6.5 Creed Deer load

    I'm not a fan of the all copper for deer. There's real no need for a deep driving bullet that does not expand wide on such a softly built animal. My son shot his first deer with a 260 using the 120 TTSX. Made a good hit just before dark and the deer took off. We didn't find her until the next...

    Swaro ATC case suggestions

    This was my concern with the Marsupial. I might just do a modified sock case that just covers the eye piece.

    Solo Mule Deer hunting in WA

    I don't know where your planning to hunt, but if I was starting from scratch, I'd focus on the North Central part of the state. At least up there you'll see deer. I've spent lots of days hunting the Blues without even seeing a deer.

    Swaro ATC case suggestions

    What are you guys using for a case for the ATC? I'd probably just go without, but the rubber cover on the eye piece wont stay on while in my backpack. I won't pay the $300 for the Swaro Stay on Case.

    Rifle Build Question - Post Form Podcast

    Just dont buy a Ruger American. They're accurate rifles, but feel cheap. I just swapped Tikka rifles with another guy for a cartridge I already own in the RA, just so I can get a nicer rifle.

    Load dev after chopping barrel

    All the powder burns up in the first several inches, this just a old wives tale. I've chopped several barrels and have not had to change loads.

    130 TMK. What to build?

    Buy a factory 6.5CM, chop it to 18" and be done.

    Wall tent. 12x15 vs 14x15 Fly or not?

    We have a 12x14. Works great for 2, 3 is ok. I have slept the family of 4 for the weekend before and it works. I also have the poly fly and porch area. This year, now that I'm by myself and have a enclosed trailer, I will not be putting up the porch. I'll do all my cooking, mostly reheating...

    I have used it with several 180's but no monos.
