    Survey- Please help

    I am a DIY kind of guy but I filled it out as if I would use one. Fishing guides don't post the lake and keep others out so I have no problem with them. Now if someone on here was a guide I perhaps would get a guide for four hours, not to get fish, but to just meet the guy and fish with him...

    Pissed off Farmer

    :) I'm surprised he didn't start a big enough fire to hide the evidence. What's the nearest refuge they can take over with their AR15's?

    My motto = you can't hunt all of the time, but you can think about it.

    Vortex or Leupold

    Last time I went to Montana bear hunting I took along three lens caps for my scope. I print my come ups to 1000 yards inside my lens cap. Then I took along a 5000 ft elevation, a 6000 ft elevation, and a 7000 ft elevation pre printed lens caps. Throw them in my pack and keep the closest...

    Vortex or Leupold

    Kurt that's simple off minutes of angle. If it drops .1 inch more minute of angle at 700 yards that is .7 inches. That's the same for the 140 gr Berger VLD for the temperature of 32 degrees and 52 degrees. I can see higher temperatures making more difference, but I started with 32 degrees...

    Try Shooter Kurt, I know you will like it. Few people know that at this latitude you will shoot hmmmm now I forget, but it's around six inches low when shooting 1000 yards west and six inches high when shooting east. Your also off about 3.6 inches in windage shooting north or south. Its great...

    Vortex or Leupold

    I went 32 degrees and 52 degrees. I only get 2690 fps out of my Creedmoor so I used the 6.5X284 at upper 2900's. However, I use the 140 VLD with a little lower ballistic coefficient. I'll try remember how to do a screen shot. Oh, I also used shooter. I think you need to knock out wind...

    Vortex or Leupold

    Your so full of bs. You didn't tell us what weight only 6.5 ELD-X. I run the second program that I gave data for on my 6.5 ELD-X. The 143 gr to be specific. Your still full of bs about 20 degree differences. - - - Updated - - - I have all three of them and they are stable, but so far I...

    Vortex or Leupold

    I just run the program for my 300 win mag at 700 yards. Today we are 32 degrees and my up is 12.9 inches. So I switched it to 52 degrees and my up is 12.7 inches. So that's .2 inches which is not even one click. One click would bring me closer so that's 1.75 inches at 700 yards and you...

    Smoke pole

    It's been to long my old Hawken is going to have to bite a few squirrels. I think I am going to have to get a couple of the grandkids hooked on the old charcoal burner.

    Vortex or Leupold

    SDMF you have me beat I have only had about 15. What I have noticed is most of my accuracy problems have not been rifles, but scopes. Most of my Leupolds would hold inside an inch, but I get rid of rifles that will not group under 1/2 inch. Well except for those with open sights. I have no...

    Vortex or Leupold

    The last Leupold MarkIV that I had was on my 300 Win mag. When I shot a group with it I would get two distinct groups and inch and a half apart. A group of about a quarter inch at the bottom of my one inch bull and a group about a half inch above the one inch bull. Dropped on an old Bushnell...

    Gun season during the rut?

    Same here and back when we could have a few doe license too I posted a picture of myself with four rifles. I thought only liberals got emotional. Some people said it must sound like a war when a deer goes past you. I don't know about them, but I can only shoot one gun at a time. Some people...

    There is a simple solution to those who complain about archery and black powder hunting. Buy a bow and a smoke pole. If you don't your reduced opportunities are your own fault. Along that same thought line if you think gun hunters have it made buy a rifle.

    Vortex or Leupold

    When I gave up on Leupold I went to Sightron, then to Nikon, and now I am trying to replace everything with Vortex.

    Vortex or Leupold

    I gave up on Leupold after sending a Mark IV in twice and a $27 20 year old Bushnell still outshot it when on the same rifle. Old Leupold were great and I still have two tacticals from the early 1980's without a mark on them. I see they bring a good price on snipers hide. I may have to part...

    Venison Tiger Meat

    I ate a lot of tiger meat in college. Take a class in parasitology and it doesn't taste that good anymore. I dissected a mink once that didn't look good. His kidneys were hollow except for a couple of big worms in each kidney. At one time they looked at my liver with ultrasound and there was...
