    Who uses a Kestrel (meter) when hunting?

    +1 for the Kestrel paired with the Sig Kilo 3000. It pairs up extremely fast as long as your phone's Bluetooth isn't on. Of course I bought my sig binos and a couple months later the Sig 10k came out. Having a kestrel is probably the best learning tool you can have as far as learning to read...

    142 SMK Performance on Game?

    I have a 6.5 PRC that shoots... Ok. At least for my standards. I am running a 143 ELDX and the groups started opening up. Velocity sped up a touch but not a significant amount, I will need to do some tuning as my pet load I had for this rifle was something I settled on. I recently discovered...

    Sold Leupold Mark 5 5-25x56 MOA

    SOLD. I sent a scope back to the factory for warranty repair and they sent me a brand new scope. While I appreciate the great warranty service I think I am going another direction. The scope is brand new. I took the film off the box for the pictures and that is the only time this optic has left...

    Idaho/Frank Church Outfitter Questions

    Hunt high. Does and small bucks will be down low, the mature deer are up high on the ridges where they are hard to get to and there is limited/no water.

    Must have equipment for Montana Mule deer hunt

    Hunt from the truck and leave the backpacking the prairie to Gritty. Good boots, OnX, a RANGEFINDER, Binos and good dope on your rifle will go a long ways. I'd recommend some kind of shooting sticks or a bipod as well, not many trees to throw your rifle against. I hunted 3 states last year...

    Sage Rat Shooting

    There are a couple guys running outfits around Burns, not sure what they charge, it used to be $250/day. We are fortunate enough to have access to a big ranch near Crane so we never had to go that route but it would be worth it to me me to go a couple days even for that. I have seen large...

    DIY gun stock finish

    I painted this gun about 7 years ago with a mixed bag of paints to match the camo. When I finished the camo I put several clear coats on and it has held up very well. I enjoyed painting it so much though I went ahead and bought and airbrush and have done several with duracoat and it is much...

    Zeiss Question

    A friend of mine has the V4 4-16 on a 300 Win Mag that I did a load development for and It seemed like a great scope. Great Glass, Tracked well and I loved the ZMOA 30 reticle. He's only had it for a year so I don't know how robust it is but I definitely considered picking one up for myself...

    Nighforce on Expertvoice Question

    Just wondering if there is anyone out there that has recently made a Nightforce order on Expertvoice. How long it took for them to ship your optic? I just ordered a scope about a week ago and am hoping it gets here by April.

    Bi pod selection

    I have a Spartan and its ok. I gave it a couple seasons and will still use it for backpack hunts when I am cutting ounces but it's not as stable as even a Harris and I ultimately ended up getting an Atlas and like it much more than either one. I have the a BT47-17 PSR Long and it's about perfect...

    New Year, New Scope?

    Well to give an update I ended up going with the NX8 4-32. I was able to play with a couple and I felt that it was better than my Mark 5 as far as turrets and feel go and the eye box issue wasnt near what some people have made it out to be. Never owned a NF before but I am excited to see how it...
