    Light weight scope that will except a custom turret

    Just do a search... but in general Leopold's don't pass the drop tests. I still use them and haven't noticed major problems...yet. Got one on a Tikka 22-250 8t I plan on testing with some small drops and some rough road travels. I do hate the mushy clicks on the windage.

    Your favorite hunting knife?

    No... and thanks. Last few years I give away the ones I use and move on to try something else. These are my favorite styles after several years of trying different ones.

    Bear Bait

    Go to a butcher and get pork scraps. Used it all and they will scoop out dog food, sweet feed ,bead, molasses, donuts to get at a nice chunk a pork fat. Do a pork fat burn/smoke with charcoal and a steel coffee can and get ready if they are around. Had seven bears on a first day bait.
