    Fieldcraft Rifle Painting Tutorial

    Re: Rifle Painting Tutorial Manimal, I think that looks great! I would leave the green in. If you were in the desert southwest you might not need it, but you must have some green in NC.

    Re: New LR shooter Tac, Are you still around or did you start on that road trip? You will love Glacier Park. I was born and raised just south of there. A little town called Columbis Falls.

    New LR shooter

    Re: New LR shooter Sorry to hear about the finger Tac. I hope it wasn't your trigger finger. I was on vacation last week so I finally got to play with the new toy. I love the scope and rifle, but I hate the stock. I see why everyone does the upgrade. I added a double layer of mouse pad and...

    Hearing protection, Impact sport / Pro Ears Gold

    New LR shooter

    New LR shooter

    Re: New LR shooter Has anyone compared the SS 3-9x42 to the 10x42? I am starting to think the variable might be a better choice. While our range goes to 500 yards, it pretty much closes down the rest of the range when it's in use. Most of my shooting will probably be 100 to 200 yards. I wish...

    New LR shooter

    Re: New LR shooter Thanks for the thread guys. I'm right in there with you all just starting out. After weeks of research and many online reviews, I'm going to go with the SS 10X42. I know it's not the greatest, but neither is my shooting ability. I normaly shoot Bullseye so this should help...
