We weren't expecting our twin boys to show up in 2013 but since they did we are getting an unexpected refund. Might be able to squeeze in a nomad for my duplex frame after all!

Amen brother!
apparently the federal government did not steal enough from me throughout the year, since i owe 188.00 bucks.

I love footing the bill for all the welfare trash, financial aid to countries that despise us, ect, ect,

I put mine in excel format. I haven't done the comparison yet from old gear to new gear. Some of the gear I'll be adding and some I am exchanging. None the less I'm excited to get all of it here and test it out.

Casio SGW400H-1BV Twin Sensor Altimeter Barometer Thermometer Watch
Mountain Hardwear UltraLamina 0 Degree Sleeping Bag
Vortex Optics Diamondback Angled Spotting Scope
Shangri-La 5 Tent
Westclox 47508 LCD Display Compact Folding Travel Alarm Clock
Thermarest Neo-Air Xtherm Sleeping Pad
Mountain HardwearHeavyweight Wool Stretch Glove - Men's
Nesco Snackmaster Pro Food Dehydrator
Kitchener #32 Meat Grinder with V-Belt Pulley
Velbon*DF-40 Tripod W/2-Way Panhead
Velbon*QHD-41Q Ballhead with Quick Release - Supports 5 lb (2.2 kg)
MSR Lightning Ascent Snow Shoes
MSR Lightning Flotation Tail - 5 inch
Sea To Summit Reactor Sleeping Bag Liner

Again, I will not be going with the latest and greatest. I want to make sure everything is functional first, before dropping large amounts of money on a single item.

In recent years, there was a bit of controversy over refund anticipation loans, also called tax refund loans. Even though everyone thought they were gone, tax refund loans have limped on in slightly different configurations. Resource for this article: Tax Refund Loans.


Sorry guys, we do our best but they do occasionally get thru. I deleted the spam and banned the spammer....ramirT will no longer be a problem :)

This is exactly what I'm getting. Planning to top it off with a zeiss conquest 3-9. Have you shot yours yet? Im curious about the recoil. Looking for something that won't thump me quite as hard as my .338 win mag. Getting soft in my old age.

Check your local Sportsman's Warehouse. I just picked up a Vortex Viper spotter for less than what the Diamondback retails for. It was a clearance item due to the fact that the Viper line has been upgraded to HD glass. I looked through both and honestly couldnt tell the difference. Seems like I got a smokin' deal.

Nope. I took I straight to the gun smith for a brake. He said this gun has a lot of recoil without one.

I'm not a real "technical" guy, but I have the same gun in a 300WSM, and the kick isn't that bad...is there that big of a difference between the 7 and the 300 WSM?

I don't know if there would be a big difference in the recoil in the 2 guns. I'm not that knowledgeable on subject myself. I want this gun to have minimal recoil. So a brake was the first thing that I wanted to do. I have guns that have a recoil of "not that bad" but after 10-15 shots, "not that bad" starts to get to me and I don't want to shoot anymore. I don't want that with this gun.

Do you have Mike in Covington doing your muzzle brake? He just did one on my t3 light in 300wm and it shoots as soft as a 243 now

No, Brett Evans in Puyallup is doing it. That's good that you're happy with it. I'm looking forward to shooting mine.
