I shoot off the shelf. Simple, never breaks down.
I once borrowed a bow that had a spring flipper rest and I only knew the flipper was broken when I knocked an arrow to shoot a pig. I had to rest the arrow on my index finger at roughly the level the rest was at.
The pig still died.
Shipping from USA to Australia is twice the cost of shipping from Australia to the USA. It annoys the shit out of me.
With shipping and exchange rate, you can just about double the price in $US to get the price I pay in $AU
I put one of these on my bino harness. Firesteel and whistle. I have a few firestraws in my harness so now if I drop pack I still have means to light a fire.
My .22lr is most accurate with SK pistol match special. It's a LRN ammo. For hunting I turn them into hollow points with a 'waltz' die that I made on a lathe. It swages a hollow point cavity in the bullet while simultaneously expanding the bullet to .225"
Accuracy doesn't suffer and I'm free to...
Anyone ever use a small solar light that turns itself on when it gets dark to show where camp is?
I have always thought it would be good to have something you can leave on or near camp in alpine areas. Be handy when coming back to camp in the dark.
I get what you're saying however I do almost all my hunting with a recurve bow and I have no interest in shooting stuff at long range. The Whelan would be my bang flop gun.
If the .270W is the finger of God then the Whelan is the hammer of Thor.
