    In-Ear Hearing Protection

    I have Walkers and ProEars HTBT. THE Pro Ears are much better. I bought them to hunt with. I think they will work for that.

    Best Scope for Western Rookie

    I would look for a ffp 3-9x like https://swfa.com/collections/swfa-ss/products/swfa-3-9x42-ss-hd-mil-quad-reticle-30mm-tube-1-mil-clicks-ffp. ….or maybe a Vortex Strike Eagle at your price range ….or maybe a Meopta To be honest, I have owned none of those scopes. The scopes I have in that...

    Share your "Hunting Items I've overspent on with no advantage"

    The stuff I’ve bought due to pressure/advice from web forums! Everything I’ve bought because what I have bothers me, usually results in an effective solution. Everything I’ve bought because the forum guys said it was the one and only usually resulted in spending too much for too little. My dad...

    UM Tikka Rings vs….

    Thanks for the link to the field evaluation. This form approved thing really seems to sell stuff. I hope he’s getting a cut of everything he’s bumping.

    UM Tikka Rings vs….

    Now this is a good point. Why on rockslide is the maven considered like gold? I must’ve missed where the maven is top of the heap now.

    Tell me why I shouldn't move to wyoming...

    Here is the plan for success. Move into a family ranch community. Buy up a big ranch. Cover it with no hunting signs. Complain to the state that you need all kinds of concessions…..public roads closed, etc. complain that the elk and deer are eating all your crops. Sell off to an out of state...

    UM Tikka Rings vs….

    So, just got a Tikka T3X lite veil wideland. 6.5 Creedmoor because I don’t need more recoil to take a deer. Looking to hunt to 600ish and shoot to 1000ish. Optic had plenty of travel. Optic is a Viper PST Gen 2 3-15x. Just trying to decide UM Rings vs MT Pic Rail and Warne/Vortex rings. Semi...

    Savage model 10 upgrade questions (Stock, trigger, etc…)

    IMHO, the best stock for a shooter is the KRG Bravo. Very adjustable. The Jard Centerfire “cassette”trigger has the best pull I’ve seen but it can be a bit light like 1lb or less. The bad thing is the Jard trigger doesn’t fit in the KRG inlet. Any tips on a 1-1.5lb savage trigger that fits a...

    7-30 Waters

    No answer in here, but my experience is that forming is best done using the COW method. I just did this with double annealed once fired Winchester with 5.5gr of titegroup. I would use 4.5 or 5.0 next time due to losing 6 of 80 cases. I think 6 is not bad. I read where a guy did this with bullets...

    Tract optics Toric UHD 30 mm MRAD scope 2.5-15x44 ***Updated 4/9/23***

    Nice review. You mention this scope and the 4-20x being rugged or durable…what is that based on? Did they see some aggressive use?

    Truck stolen from dealership

    That may not be a bad idea. They have more room to “deal” on product vs cash!

    Need a new truck- no clue what direction

    I don’t know if this helps or not. This is kind of my take. Ford, Chevy, Toyota and maybe Ram all seem to make a good truck…..or maybe not Ram…..not sure. 3/4 and 1 ton trucks are cool, but that is a huge price and operational cost increase. Do you really need that tow capacity or payload? I...

    Primal Rights Competition Primer Seater Review

    I see that! Just as I’m coming around, I see that these have gone up a bit and there are none available! Can a person get on a list?

    Primal Rights Competition Primer Seater Review

    The K&M hand tool for $60 and the Holland bench tool for $340. I’m really surprised that there is still no data to support the use on this tool. The RCBS tool puts them in the hole with great leverage for $120. The K&M does bolt, but leverage is worse. This seems to result in +/- 0.001 seating...

    NX8 vs NXS - glass quality

    I would be interested in a list of what that means specifically. Often that means their “checkout” process is the same. Specs are adjusted within the design to make the design hit its requirements, then the processes get built from the control points dictated by the design. Then exclusive...

    FFP hunting scopes

    These are ones I want to recommend, but haven’t test driven myself….I did put the 3-18x50 on back order for 9 months, but just dropped it and bought the PST Gen 2 without remorse.

    FFP hunting scopes

    How many of those have you owned? Personally, I’d be looking at the TT 4-20X or the PST Gen 2 3-15x or the SWFA 3-15x. I own each of those and while I’ve never made a shot with the most expensive that the cheapest wouldn’t make, each represents a level in good, better, best. There are others...
