    Maven's CRS Riflescopes Jan2022 Release

    The eye relief is short. Seems to be a universal issue with most modern scopes. I went thru a bunch of mounts and even had the LOP shortened on one rifle to get it right. Nice scope though.

    Idaho 66 7-Day War?

    We didn't see much. It was beautiful weather and beautiful country, but too nice for game to be moving. Locals all said it was the must unseasonably warm weather they've ever seen. We did see a few moose and 2 elk that were not in our unit, and 4 mule deer but nothing shootable. The camping was...

    Idaho 66 7-Day War?

    Thanks for the info. We are looking to avoid crowds the best we can, but understand the nature of the unit and the 'any bull rifle hunt' will pack a bunch of hunters into the unit over a limited time frame.

    Idaho 66 7-Day War?

    So I hear this unit rifle season is fondly, or not so fondly referred to as the "7 day war". I'm a NR with an elk b and deer tag in my pocket. This will be my first time hunting this unit and will be a soldier in the war. Just curious why they call it the 7 day war and if there's aspect of...

    Who's going to the Kifaru Grand Opening Party?

    Going on 13 weeks now for a Door Gunner with belt. Aron mentioned on a podcast they were going to start shipping last week I believe. Hope I'm not disappointed when it arrives.

    What’s your CC ?

    grfox92, You are not wrong. There may come a day where I may be kicking myself in the ass regretting not carrying. I have a ccw permit and numerous pistols and a $hit pile of holsters and carry from time to time. But after over 50 years on this planet with zero instances of threat of harm, I...

    What’s your CC ?

    God Bless America, but CCW is a royal PIA... I love guns as much or more than anyone here, but can't rationalize my personal necessity for CCW on a daily basis. I imagine if I lived in a real sketchy area I might be more inclined.. But the actual risk of a crisis event versus the PIA of...

    Who's going to the Kifaru Grand Opening Party?

    Interesting dynamic at Kifaru for sure. Aron went silent on Frank's departure while everyone else bid him well wishes. I'm waiting on a Door Gunner that I ordered at the end of May. I knew darn well shipping would be delayed for many weeks when I placed the order but still a bit soured on...

    Replacement Stock Options for Model 1500?

    Thanks for the heads up- I did get the Bell & Carlson and so far very pleased with the fit and finish although have not shot it in yet as I'm struggling with scope mounts that will provide the proper eye relief. Length of pull for the Bell & Carlson is 13 1/2" but it's not meshing up with the...

    Maven's CRS Riflescopes Jan2022 Release

    Got mine- just got it mounted on S&W (Howa/Vanguard 1500) .270 and looking forward to test shooting. So far impressed with the quality, fit and finish out of the box.

    Distance to 'Get Away Cabin' or Property?

    2-3 hrs. is ideal. If less than 2 hrs.,,, did you really leave home? If over 3hrs. you just lost a day of driving (8hrs. of total drive time and gas expense) Our cabin is 2hrs and it seems perfect. Do NOT underestimate the amount of work entailed to keep the cabin going. At least one-third to...

    LR Rookie's Race to 1000

    Which Spartan Precision Javelin Model where you using? The Lite, The Pro, or the Pro Hunt Tac? I think the latter two have extendable leg options.

    Moving from WA to PA

    Yes. It is real. Very real. Welcome to PA. As the guy above stated, if you've lived here all of your life you kind of accept it as 'normal', although it is not normal at all. Many Hunters are starting to wake up though and change is brewing. And believe it or not , there is actually fairly...

    Moving from WA to PA

    Not much to add here- PA has evolved mainly into a deer-turkey-bear state. Although the 2 week rifle season prevails as the most popular, there is a heavy emphasis on bow hunting for deer. With regard to bear, although they are common and the state holds some really nice bears, most hunters...
