    Demo how to cut foam in rifle case from Optics Planet

    Nice video, thanks. He left out the ammo though. Cut out a space for a box or two of ammo. I've never had TSA check any serial numbers in years of gun travel (domestic). Every now and then they do ask to take the firearms out and show it's unloaded, which always makes for an awkward...

    Swaro bino helpS

    Yes, that is the field of view in degrees. The 10x 42's do have a 6.4 degree field of view, or 112meters at 1000 meters/ 336 feet at 1000 yards. I had a pair of the 10x42 EL's and loved them. Fantastic binos. I heard that the swarovision version can give you a headache after a while. I've...

    Binoculars for spotting

    Why not spot with your rifle scope? Not as comfortable as a spotting scope, but still usable. Easier to hold still than a pair of binos (though I've seen guys mount their binos on tripods).

    Eye pro

    I've enjoyed all of the smith optics I've tried out. You can order most of their frames in "clear". Look under their "elite tactical" line on their website. Their tactical line also has the "boogie sport and boogie regulators", which are less expensive options that both work well.

    Ruck frame with weight for hikes/jogs

    Goruck stuff is expensive, but great! You can find used ones on ebay if you want to save a couple of bucks. Or wait a bit, they put stuff on sale periodically. I do training hikes with a 45 pound plate strapped to my bullpac. Best training I can do for my hunts out west. Any cheap frame...

    Hunting & Fishing Tried my hand at a European Mount

    The cleaner one of the left I boiled and scraped clean. Get's the job done but is smelly work. The one on the right I buried in the ground for a year. I plan on bleaching it at some point. Buddy of mine used 40 dye creme developer (hair dye from a beauty store or amazon...), so I picked up a...

    Hunting & Fishing Looking for Ideas on a Western Hunt

    Going deep into public lands will increase your odds of seeing animals, but hiking out 200+ pounds of elk meat for 20 miles over rough terrain is a bitch. The guide with horses will suddenly become worth every penny. Just make sure you have a plan if you go far into the backcountry. As...

    Hunting & Fishing DIY Hike Hunting Equiptment

    As others have mentioned, you'll need a sturdy frame pack to haul out the meat if you're successfull. Best I've found is the bullpac. I love a good day pack, where you can stash all your gear, but they're just not useful once you have something on the ground.
