    What's your choice for a bonded bullet for a 30 caliber?

    I was going to say that if you like Nosler Partitions but want a bonded bullet, the Swift A-Frames are the ones you want, but jeffpenland123 beat me to it.

    Best sub $400 scope for browning x bolt in 30-06?

    The listed eye relief on the Huron was a concern for me too. But after reading quite a few reviews on the scope, users reported that the eye relief was closer to 4 inches. Might be worth it if the reports are accurate.

    I have a Vari-X III 2.5 - 8x that I bought in 1977 to put on my .270 Win. I have never had to change the setting unless I changed ammunition. The scope has always held it's zero.

    Eurooptics.com has a great deal on the Trijicon Huron 3-9 for $299 with free 2 day shipping. It's normally a $700 scope. Not FFP, but a lot of scope for the money.

    Bacon Grease

    Chicken fried steaks were originally fried in bacon grease. Some of the best restaurants still use it and hand dip their steaks (not some frozen processed piece of whatever).

    Snowpack not looking very good :(

    I'm not joking around. I see it all the time, especially with every hurricane. Global warming gets the blame, but the Insurance companies raise our premiums or refuse to renew our policies. Lost everything in Katrina, had claims for two other storms since, last one being Ida. Insurance...

    Is there a great Gamo option?

    Old post, but anyway Gamos are decent. Biggest complaint is the crappy trigger. If you get one, look into an aftermarket trigger from "Charliedatuna.com". It costs about $35, you can install it yourself in about 10 minutes, and makes a world of difference. Accuracy is very good with lead...

    crispi

    I have the Wild Rock, the Wyomings, and the Idahos. All three fit perfect (regular shoe size 11 D). Kenetrek Mountain Extremes didn't work for my feet. Crispis are perfect, and have remained waterproof over the several years I have used them. I clean them regularly, and treat them with the...

    Alaskan Cruise

    Big thing with Alaska is the time of year. One season is too cold, one is too rainy, and one has too many bugs (blackflies and no see ums will drain you). Check with a travel agent that specializes in cruises to find the best season. We went in August (only because it was our Anniversary), and...

    Full zip midlayer

    Sitka Ambient is the most versatile piece of clothing I own. Extremely warm for the light weight, breathes well, and is full zip unless you want the hoody version.

    Picatinny rail & rings recommendation wanted.

    I just put a Murphy Precision rail and Ken Farrell rings on my .340 Weatherby. Farrell also sells rails, but I wanted a Titanium rail, so Murphy got the call. Both items are works of art, and craftsmanship is unbelievable on them. I wish I would have done it sooner.

    WTB Trijicon Huron 3-12x40

    That exact scope is on sale at Eurooptic.com for $299 with free 2 day shipping. It's regular price is $699 but is on sale. I don't think you could even find a used one for that price. Oops sorry, the one on sale is 3-9 x 40. Might want to look at it anyway. The 3-12 is $454
