    Preferred sling for competition

    I much prefer the VTAC sling to the VCAS or BlueForce slings because it has a lot more adjustment length to it.

    I have had a US Peacekeeper for about a year and have been pretty impressed with it so far. cstactical At one time I think he gave a discount to Hide members but not sure if that's still good or not.

    CR123A Batteries

    I've heard that some people were having trouble with the rechargeable CR123 blowing up the bulbs in surefire lights. Something about when they were fully charged they had too much voltage for the bulbs. I don't know anyone that this happened to, just what the people at the battery store told me.

    Mexican Cartel Hit in Phoenix

    Best way to dispose of old ammo?

    Re: Best way to dispose of old ammo? How many? If it's just a few and you don't have a bullet puller, take a pair of pliers and pull the bullets out. Throw the powder in the yard. Put a little oil on the primers and discard the brass.

    Rifle Scopes Why would you want an illuminated reticle...

    Re: Why would you want an illuminated reticle... We do a lot of hunting with spotlights at night. When you are at the edge of the spotlight on a black/dark colored hog black crosshairs can be difficult to pick up. Ill reticles make it much easier.

    Gunsmithing Shot 30-06 through 300wm Accidentally

    Re: Shot 30-06 through 300wm Accidentally I've got a couple of .243 shells that I fired from a .270 years ago. My little brother and I were both shooting Remington Core-lokt ammo, and in the heat of chasing a herd of hogs I grabbed the wrong box when I reloaded. Fired twice before I noticed...

    Re: Looking for a USA made rifle case Guessing from the poll the other day, I would bet that Triad Tactical is going to come out with one. Depends on how big of a hurry you are in.

    Re: Remington 788 Stock You might check ebay, gunbroker, etc, and just be patient to find a good one. I don't know of anywhere else besides going to a stock maker.
