    Refurbished Vortex PMR ?

    I can get refurbished vortex precision matched rings, which are made by Seekins I think, and carry a full no questions warranty for only $90. That's to my door. What is the downside? Seekins rings are $130 and Vortex are $149.

    Whole Muscle Jerky Thickness - Brine?

    Putting my daughter's elk in the freezer last week I found a bunch of 1.5 year old beef roasts that I forgot about. I pulled them and plan to cut up for jerky. I've made jerky a few times over the years and it has always been okay, but not great. I have a cookshack electric smoker with the...
