What do you carry your large Binoculars / Rangefinders in?
The FHF is used and loved by many.... http://fhfgear.com/hunting/bino-harness/ I personally thought it was too bulky and inconvenient for my hunting needs. But others love them. KUIU makes one as well....No experience with it. I may give it a try should I ever upgrade my binos and want to...- Fisky

Pretty quick and painless. Follow the link, scroll to "Dreams in Motion" and cast your vote. Dreams in Motion helps disabled kids participate in various sports. 15 grand would go a long ways towards some much needed gear. Contest ends tomorrow and it's neck and neck with another organization...- Fisky

I went back into your posts and saw where you commented before, 7lbs 4 oz. Is that bare rifle weight? Got any pics and specs (didn't see any)? Thanks!!- Fisky

New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM
Recoil question....... Does anybody have any insight on the recoil of this round without a brake? Would she be pretty harsh in a 7-7.5lb scoped rifle??- Fisky

New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM
I hear ya. I had a project put together before all this started. As it turns out it shares some similarities to an Extreme Hunter. Now I just need to re-chamber a 6.5 SLR to 6.5 SAUM I think. That extra energy would be appreciated!! Currently in 6.5 SLR- Fisky

What if max mag length is 2.995" (Wyatts Mag box). Would you spec the reamer different then? Thanks- Fisky

Sitka layering systems
They are doing some repairs on their website at the moment. They are having their biggest sale ever this Friday, FYI and I assume trying to get shit in order for that. They've had problems on their website quite a bit. If just after wool base layers, I like either First Lite or Smartwool for...- Fisky

Hunting & Fishing Best Way to Carry in Grizz Backcountry?
I agree with you. My experience in bear country is very limited thus far, I spent 2 weeks bow hunting the backcountry of your state in Sept. It was VERY easy to see that where the bears are, there is less hunting pressure. I am for less hunting pressure, I think I'd rather deal with bears than...- Fisky

Hunting & Fishing Best Way to Carry in Grizz Backcountry?
Thank you. Carrying on the chest would be my preference. Just didn't know how it would work (if at all) with binos on as well. I see in their gallery they have 1 picture with a guy with gun and binos on chest...Them Diamond D's sure are popular.- Fisky

Hunting & Fishing Best Way to Carry in Grizz Backcountry?
To be fair, this thread is/was about how to best carry a pistol in bear country, with a pack on and binos on the chest. I have little experience carrying a pistol, so I was looking for ideas on how best to carry it, again with a pack on and binos in a harness on my chest. Ie; drop leg, chest...- Fisky

Hunting & Fishing Best Way to Carry in Grizz Backcountry?
Gun will most likely be a Gen 4 G29. I am looking for recommendations on the best way to carry this pistol for bear defense, with a pack on, and binos on the chest via bino harness. Obviously the lighter it is, would be a plus too. I carried spray this year and all the locals (MT) thought I...- Fisky

Hunting & Fishing thermal underwear
I only have one med weight Capilene piece, and many many First Lite and Smartwool merino items...... My socks and underwear will ALWAYS be merino. Merino's natural odor killing abilities is unbeatable. Capilene or any other synthetic will stink like no other just after one or two good sweats in...- Fisky

Newer Buahnell FUSION LRF binos --> readout in sunlight
99 yards is the max true horizontal distance in bow mode. I got some more time in with them under field conditions. Sun was bright, heat waves abundant, and snow on the ground. Furthest I was able to get in those conditions, off hand, was 1200yds. I was able to pick up a deer at 1170 off hand...- Fisky

Newer Buahnell FUSION LRF binos --> readout in sunlight
I haven't tested the bullseye yet... The sun is big and bright this morning. I tested them out into the sun a few different times this morning and I have no issues reading the display. It's a little tougher to see with snow vs a dark background (as it is with EVERY LRF I've used), but still I...- Fisky
