    Rifle Scopes Scope Decision: Minox vs S&B

    Roger Thanks for the info and opinions! I think the Minox’s reticles appeal to me more and because of that, thats what I’ll be going with Thanks again!

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta 5-25 v Minox 5-25 v Nightforce 7-35 v Schmidt & Bender 5-25 v Vortex 4.5-27

    Whelp this pretty much solidified my choice to go with the Minox. The TT looks amazing and I wouod love to support a Canadian company, but the price jump to a TT is just way out of my reach. Perhaps once they update their reticles I’ll consider them. Until then, I doubt I’ll be disappointed...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Decision: Minox vs S&B

    Hello all, looking for some feedback as to which optic you feel is better suited to my needs. I have spent the last 3 months narrowing down my choices from the usual suspects, and have come to the decision of either going with the S&B PMII LT/MTC/LT 5-25x56, or the Minox ZP5 5-25x56. This will...

    Water Proof Gear - Clothes & Pack

    Why on earth would anyone think that a 5.11 pack would be waterproof or even water resistant?? Cordura is a durable fabric that can be treated like crap and resist tearing or punctures, but rainproof, not likely. Do they spray on a light DWR layer? Sure, but thats meant for a light misting of...

    Movie Theater Black Watch Snipers (History Channel)

    Thank you for this, great show put on by THC. Nice to see these boys get to tell their story before passing. And damn, them seeing one another at the end of their days one last time definitely choked me up.

    Extended Winter Op Gear Advice

    Yep, I usually sit with my hand around the grip and when Im ready to shoot just pop (abduct) my trigger finger out onto the trigger and once done shooting, pop it back in. I tried specific shooting gloves with a singular trigger finger but ended up taking it out of that finger and keeping my...

    Extended Winter Op Gear Advice

    Prone Positioning: Buy a good insulated sleeping pad. If you're worried about rips/damage then pick up a cheap foamy as a sacrificial bottom to place underneath. You can tape some of that pool edge grip tape to the bottom in strips to help keep it from sliding around on ice. I personally use a...

    Which trigger should i buy (for PRS)

    Cadex 2 Stage here. Breaks clean and never had it fail me yet, even after a multi day shooting course on the windy/dusty bald a$$ prairies.

    Quality Vibratory Tumblers

    Thanks for all the input guys! I have been hesitant about the Dillon warranty when it comes to the tumblers, as it doesnt sound near as good as their presses. I’ll probably end up going the TT Ultra Vibe route. Didnt know about the industrial model though. I’ll have to do some more research...

    Quality Vibratory Tumblers

    Looking to upgrade my Frankford Arsenal vibratory tumbler this winter, and wanted to get your guys opinions on what one to go with. The two that have caught my attention are the Dillon CV-750/2001 and the Thumblers Ultra Vibe 18, but Im open to suggestions. I understand the Ultra vibe is smaller...

    Rifle Scopes Schmidt bender or kahles

    These two are my biggest competitors right now, along with the Minox ZP5. Being up in Canada, I unfortunately dont get quite the deals you guys do, so the price difference is pretty large. My question is, for me, the S&B PMII LP/MTC/LT is $3900 (no MTC/LT takes off $200), Minox is $3475, and...

    Wiebad Fortune Cookie Bag vs Gamechanger

    https://www.blackbranchshootingsports.com/product-page/charlie-ii-bag By far the best bag I have ever purchased, hands down. The fill is excellent, balancing weight and stability very well. Rubberized sections exactly where you need them. No straps or things to get in the way (If straps are...

    Depriming die for 6.5 creedmoor lapua

    Sinclair for this guy. My lee was a rust magnet and turning down the pin was a pain. If your on a budget, Lee is fine, but for an extra $15 the sinclair is stainless and the pins are changeable should you move to a different calibre that doesnt require small pins.
