    Stuff overheard at the range or local gun shop

    I like mine :) with that said I am on my second bolt shroud, second firing pin spring, third ejector spring and plunger… it is so much fun when I find out I brought a paperweight to a 60 rounds plus sighters match that’s 3 hours away…. Hurray for being a lefty that didn’t want to get another...

    How to Print Larger Format from OnX?

    Dedicated not really, interested because I currently have waypoints/camp spots/ scouting info saved on my OnX profile. I was looking for a way to superimpose them without moving them (off limits/restricted areas). Having the ability to have a hard copy map for multi day trips is a calming backup...

    Mid tier to premium level optics is the price worth it?

    There is a maven b6 currently in classifieds that I might be anble to reply too in time and I whole heartedly agree about not looking through anything I can’t afford :). Last year I made the mistake of seeing what a custom action and chassis under a leupold mark 5 feels like at PRS practice...

    Mid tier to premium level optics is the price worth it?

    Processing Diminishing returns is fun- I have had a blast shooting midrange( 600 yards) against people with f class rigs that cost more then the car I arrived in with a ruger american rifle. Was I competitive- no and I understood I would not win/be competitive in that group. But the point was...

    Mid tier to premium level optics is the price worth it?

    I know aware Swarovski el 10x50 exist, but offering a optic that is 3k when I know buying a 1k bino will leave my family without isn’t super helpful- if money wasn’t an issue I would not be asking this question

    Mid tier to premium level optics is the price worth it?

    Working on getting PM ability but my question probably applies across several brands. How much extra money is worth the jump from a mid range option the same brand premium option? I’m looking into maven binoculars so I will use their pricing 10x50 mid level MSRP is $475 top level 10x50 is...

    Cheap Stuff that Works

    Got lost in the starting pages of this but any of the Dexter-Russel knifes hold up to the abuse of commercial work, light enough to backpack in/actually have with you and are possible to resharpen

    Gaiters? What do you feel is the main purpose

    Probably should have mentioned this- I have either an older set of either expedition or crocodile gators from Outdoor research- I’m 6’5 and they almost reach my knees, after 3-4 visits to a seamstress to have the bottom strap repaired I’m about ready to retire my gaiters after several years and...

    Gaiters? What do you feel is the main purpose

    I hate hiking with wet feet- and the even worse putting on wet or frozen boots the next morning when trying to get out of the tent. I used to feel gaiters are just to keep most of the snow on a trail to not enter shoes/boots. However 2 and a half tubs of water proofing and several pairs of...

    Hello from Alaska 4x4 Rentals!

    I was not aware or or involved in the above mentioned incident- nor am I an employee. But living in Anchorage I have recommended (and probably will continue to do so) Alaska 4x4 rentals when family comes up mid winters, a larger chain rental company tried to send a car out without proper winter...

    Using tech to help you plan a spring bear trip.

    Thanks for the ideas- seems much less costly then investing in cellular based trail cameras( that may be on the wrong side of what a state considers fair pursuit of game) and you don’t risk gear going missing… I’ve gone out twice this spring thinking there would be less snow and dens opening up...

    Getting Into Hunting, Want A Proper Pack (and other gear)

    I know I’m late to the party (also working toward the classified requirements) I have had a few zamberlan boots-overall they are great boots unless you have an awkward gait. I paid to have one pair resoled and the boots became too heavy for hiking or hunting use and I gladly bought another...
