    Rifle Scopes SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy

    Re: SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy I don't think they are bogged down at all. They are just back ordered on the 5x20. When the scopes get there they will probably ship very quickly. I called a couple days ago and ordered a SS 10xHDMQ and it went out that day. Nothing is bogged...

    Hunting & Fishing Can I get by using a fixed 10x scope for hunting?

    Re: Can I get by using a fixed 10x scope for hunting? I guess it will depend on what type of hunting you will do. I have a fixed 10x on my LTR, that I hunt with. I would swap out my fixed 10x for a 3x9x42 Burris with their ballistic plex reticle if you don't want to use the 10x and don't...

    mil to mil

    Re: mil to mil Mil/mil is the way to go. You can keep it straight once you get to the range a few times with that technique. I have mil/mil scopes on my personal rifles, and have my data books to reflect. My issue rifle is Mil/MOA, and we are taught, tested and expected to follow that...

    Anyone use a Ghillie for hunting - did it work?

    Re: Anyone use a Ghillie for hunting - did it work? One thing is for sure, there is more useless gimiky junk for sale geared towards hunting. Truth be told here in Alaska most of the gucciflage leaf camo scent block stuff that is geared to tree stand sitting for whitetails will serve no...

    Rifle Scopes Return to zero rings and mounts.

    Re: Return to zero rings and mounts. I have used Larue mounts for a few years, have swapped back and forth between Eotechs and S&B short dots with good results. They maintain zero well. I have confirmed my zero when possible, and they have been close enough for government work...

    Which of these spotting scopes would you pick?

    Re: Which of these spotting scopes would you pick? I tried, few low end scopes, the wind river, and Burris land mark were good up to about 20x but after that the eye relief goes quickly until at max power your eye lashes will be bending on the glass. I will second the Gold Ring...

    Anyone use a Ghillie for hunting - did it work?

    Re: Anyone use a Ghillie for hunting - did it work? I am not sure what type of hunting you will be doing in AK, but there is really no need to use a ghillie. Most of the hunting is mountain type terrain where you will spot and stalk. Good binos and a spotting scope are very useful here...

    Bore cleaning solvent ??

    Re: Bore cleaning solvent ?? Shooters choice, and some light oil is all I use for routine cleaning of my personal rifles. Some essentials for me are a bore guide, patches and a coated cleaning rod. I don't use brushes on my rifles. For my issue rig I use nylon brushes and boretech...

    Re: Leupy 3.5-10 or 4.5-14 M1 on 7RM? 4.5x14 all the way. I had a Vari x III 4.5x14 with target dot on my 7mm mag. That thing was surgical in the mountains. My favorite scopes on my hunting rigs are 4.5x14s and 4x16s. The perfect range for the versitility I need. There are no brushy close...

    Re: Hunting with a heavy ass rifle I hunt with my Rem 700 LTR up here in the mountains. The rifle is a tack driver with 168g Sierra match kings. During hunting season I load up my standard load of Varget and substitute the 165 g sierra game kings. Out of my rig they print very well on the...

    Re: linThe .45-70...questions about her... It is a pretty popular round here in Alaska. I have put about 1K rounds through a Marlin 1895 mostly 300g hand loads. It was fun to shoot and a very handy rifle, w the williams reciever sight. It would be a great deer/hog gun hits like a sledge...
