    Swarovski mentions demineralized water washes and a lens pen, so Acetone does not damage the coating on the glass? That would surprise me?

    Anyone ever get nervous pulling the trigger on your first ever re-loads?

    My first box of reloads only had 1 problem ! 1 round did not get primed but it just taught me to pay more attention and how to use a bullet puller ! Shooting a 300 Wby with reloads is a lotta fun and they were not loaded to max so I had no issues shooting them but being anxious I think is normal ?

    Lotta guys here in NM just use a soft sided drag type bag and throw them in the Pelicans which I am still trying to wrap my hands around why ? Yes foam has been removed or maybe just partial foam removed but not sure?

    replacement foam

    Most Military Surplus stores here have foam for sale and at a reasonable price, you can always get it from the manufacturer as well ? Not sure which would be more economical but I would go with the easiest on me to acquire and swap out? Which for me would be local and cutting it is very straight...

    Bryan I get a 2.07 using the 150 gr 270 Weatherby at 3100 fps at 6610 ft in elevation so I see them shooting good outta the 270 Lazermark? RL 25 with max load will give me 3100 fps!

    Rifle Scopes Scope & Mount Suggestions

    These track fairly straight and a lotta scope for the money with FFP, it's better to have the extra mag and not need it than need it and not have it kinda like the rail I would go with a 30 MOA at the most ! Depending on the caliber ? Leupold Mk4 8.5-25x50mm ER/T M1 FFP MtTMR 63055 My bad they...

    Swarovski 8x30 Rangefinder Problem

    Had same problem with mine but I was on a once in a lifetime Oryx Hunt here in NM and everyone using it said they were not pushing down hard on it but as many Oryx as we were seeing it could have been pushed too hard easily?
