Ultralight is done....now Ultracheap

[Fatcamp]

I know I know, already been looking at replacing the stock on it too!!! lol

that looks like an aftermarkey barrel ya got there too

LOL. It's just a Savage Axis take-off, but I wanted to consolidate my rifles to 6.5CM. It all adds up though.

Worlds cheapest bone saw. The pencil perspective didn’t quite work, those are just jigsaw blades.

Obviously you ain’t gonna do a moose...

I don’t skimp on optics, boots or packs
Clothing and other creature comforts I buy used or Costco stuff

These pants were pretty decent this year. I put them through the ringer and they haven't let me down yet.

I wore my wrangler pants more than my sitka pants this year. Love them. The Costco trekking poles are nice too. I have also been happy with my Nikon Monarchs. They work fine and have had them for probably 10-12 years now.

Same, my diamondbacks have worked just fine through the years. Huge step up from the ones I had before, sooo....

Some of the most successful mule deer guides/hunters I know run Diamondbacks and razor spotters.
People dont realize you have to know how to use glass for it to be good. Hand a rookie a pair of swaros and a seasoned hunter a pair of tascos and see who spots more deer.

Ya, I put an expensive scope in NF ultralite rings on a NF rail on a $300 Ruger American.......and it's a shooter.

I'll take that over an expensive rifle with a cheap optic and mounting gear. Every single time. I've had way more scope failures than rifle failures.

I feel personally attacked.

I killed a bull elk last month with my Savage 110, vortex diamondback hp scope, remington yellow box brass reloads. vortex diamondback binos. Walmart camo hoody. Salomon gtx boots. Walmart wrangler nylon cargo pants. I quartered the thing out with my $15 amazon morakniv. Walmart cotton game bags. Packed it out on a $150 eberlestock frame pack.

Boiled the skull in a walmart turkey fryer and did my first euro mount that's now hanging in my office at work.

Good for you, congrats sir.. a savage 110 in .243 was my first rifle given to me by my dad, it’s not the prettiest gun I have now but it’s my most trusted and favorite to shoot.

Duluth Alaskan Hardgear Puffin jacket. Got it on sale in a solid dark green color they don’t make anymore. Really warm and packs down small enough. For the $80 I paid for it it’s hard to beat

Men's Alaskan Hardgear Puffin Jacket | Duluth Trading Company

The lightweight insulated Puffin Jacket doesn't flinch no matter the weather, with a -15°F warmth rating and water-repellent finish that sheds moisture.

And the wrangler pants are great. For $20 they outperform pants that cost 4x as much.

Another vote for the Burris Fullfield II scopes. Great value for the dollar.

 

[Newtosavage]

After how many shots of jack did this happen? Lol

The Zeiss 10x40 Classics that I believe he's referring to, leave a lot to be desired in low light. They are nowhere near the new Conquest HD's in that area.

 

[Newtosavage]

One of the best budget binoculars you can find is a used pair of original (not Ultra HD) Bushnell Legends, made in Japan. They are extremely good, and you can usually find them for about $150.

Vortex Viper 8x42. I found them to compare very well to MUCH more expensive binos.

Burris FFII 3-9 scope. Seems very dependable and it won’t limit any shooting within legal hunting hours.

Walmart $4 knife thats a kershaw knockoff
Buy 5 of those and put 1 in truck, 1 in work desk, 1 in big game pack, 1 in waterfowl bag, 1 in everyday pocket

I'm still looking for that cheap NR elk tag.

Check your local army surplus store. Ive bought lots of goodies there for cheap. Goretex parkas, Altima boots, a Granite Gear pack, wool socks, nice leather belt, etc.

I grew up putting bread sacks in my boots to keep my feet dry and hand me down stuff. Suffered and froze sitting in a ditch waiting for geese to fly my uncle didn’t leave till they flew. Then you better not miss because we have to wait till they come backif you do .Learned lots of lessons the hard way. I really value my good gear. I have spent more money on cheap garbage vs just saving and buying quality. But one thing that’s cheap and works is wool mittens with a light pair of gloves.
