    Bushnell Fusion X bino/rangefinder

    My first pair of them had the blue tint to the glass, like the old versions. The replacement pair that I received did not have that same tint. The glass in them is pretty good, I don't think it's too far behind the forge that you'd be disappointed.

    Bergara BMR Micro Rimfire .22 LR

    I played with the BMR at the GAP Grind match a couple weeks ago. I thought it was fantastic! On par with the tikka and 457. It's a great little squirrel killer, but I don't love the stock for nrl/prs matches. Very light and nimble rifle, much like the ranger, but hopefully more reliable. The rep...

    Springfield 2020 Waypoint?

    I've only handled one in the shop. Priced at $1,899 for the non adjustable/carbon barrel, it's more than reasonable to me. Fit and finish looked fine, action felt good. IF I needed a lightweight prc, I'd have no problem buying this.

    Budget 6-24x scope options: Bushnell Match Pro vs. Arken SH-4

    I'm on the arken boat, but I'm not blind to their downsides. I'm also a bushnell guy, I love the tactical line but the match pro and forge scopes aren't on the same level as the arken. I also own a 5-25 strike eagle, not impressed. Arken pros- 1- tracking, as just about everyone says is...

    New Bushnell LRFs | Fusion X 10x42 | Prime 1800

    To me, the 15x forge glass is better. This glass still has a blue'ish hue like my old fusions did. Not a deal breaker, and the glass is still very useable.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex LHT 4.5-22x50

    Ordered from Euro optics. Thank you vortex for listening to your customers! I'll be comparing this to the 4-32nx8 and 4.5-18lrhs as soon as it gets here.

    Anyone ever have an issue with Mountain Tactical?

    order date: 10/23/017 ship date: 4/25/2018 when I called them about it (I don't remember when I placed the call) I basically got the same attitude and 'why didn't you call sooner' type answer.

    Anyone ever have an issue with Mountain Tactical?

    I ordered a mag from them for my tikka. Took 6 months for it to show up and never worked as well as a factory mag. Communications were poor, product was poor. I just chalked it up as a lesson learned. Sounds like you've learned the same lesson.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex LHT 4.5-22x50

    I'm excited about this one. I played with the 3-15 but was holding out for a little more mag- I guess it's almost time to get one of these ordered. If street price is sub $1,300, I'd be happy.

    Anyone grow flowers for dove?

    We do Sunflowers, Millet, Field Corn, Grain Sorghum, and Wheat on our dove field. I have had good luck planting the peredovik sunflowers, if I can keep the deer off of them. Millet is super easy, if you're putting it in a low spot that may hold water from time to time, use Japanese, if no...

    To dry fire or not to dry fire?

    DO NOT USE steelworx snap caps from amazon. Chalk it up to a learning experience, but it ruined my b14r firing pin.

    Shooting your own match?

    Shoot it, No points, No prizes- but shoot each stage first so the other guys that aren't top competitors have something to go on.

    Could use some Alaska vacation advice

    Man, I just got back home on Wednesday from a week up there. I wish I could move back up there!

    Could use some Alaska vacation advice

    I'm a big fan of the Kenai Peninsula. I don't know much about hunting opportunities, but the fishing on the Russian, Kenai, Kasilof rivers are great, as well as ocean fishing from Ninilchik to Homer.

    Bushnell LRTS vs. ?

    The meopta optika6 3-18x56 is a good comparison. I currently use both. The bushnell sits on my 6.5prc hunting gun and the meopta is on a b14r 22 since it will focus below 25yds.

    Who’s your preferred custom rifle builder?

    I've had Mac's Gunworks out of Gillette, WY do several as well as MS Precision in North Mississippi. I plan on having Manzella Precision out of Montana do my next one.
