    Feelings vs pragmatism

    My brother(deceased) left me a few rifles One is a 700 bdl 270 with factory dbm ( no feed lips on action). I have no use for a 270 so I can send it down the road or build something more useful. Accurate has 3 round AIC mags so I could do something that would fit in a scabbard. The pragmatist...

    Lowa Tibet Care

    I seem to remember, but could be wrong, that boots treated with snow seal are hard to resolve

    Lowa Tibet Care

    Crispis get the special Crispi juice. Everything else gets the Kennetrek wax. As for the rand issue - my tibets suffer on the toe but I blamed it on hooking sharp rocks and a horse stepping on one.

    Winchester 70 Pre64 Recoil pad replacements?

    I'd use a slip on pad unless the stock is already too long. Take it off when storing to save steel from rusting. You might have a valuable rifle there. What cartridge? Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Are you sure you want to mess a classic?. Is the rifle in good shape otherwise. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Orthodics

    I'll know in a couple weeks how the things are going to look and work. No foot mold but a 3D scan of my feet. I'm curious how they can use those for a pattern. In the meantime, they sold me a 3/4 length pair that help but I haven't done any tough hikes with them. They are reaarranging my...

    Midsouth has 30-06 Lapua Brass Available

    Thanks much for the heads up. Was waiting on Peterson but I suspect these will do. I dont shoot the odd six much but I was able to score enough for my needs for the rifle. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Orthodics

    Thanks. I am getting scanned for orthodics at podiatrist's office in a couple days. These will not be full footbed length like sheep feet. They can move between footwear but was worried about them sliding around in boots when going downhill etc. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Orthodics

    These inserts are coming from a podiatrist office. My foot bone arrangement is losing its resemblance to the normal foot structure diagram on her wall. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Orthodics

    The superfeet ain't cutting it anymore and I need some better orthotics. For those that use prescribed custom molded orthodics in their boots any issues? I am thinking of things like sliding around in the boot, changes in fit, etc. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Kenetrek Break in / Boot advice

    I have a pair of mountain extremes and the break in was pretty easy. Flat ground - do some hills and side hills- beak in the ankles on side hills. I could have hunted them after a day walking around town but my feet are pretty tough. Kennetrek are not light duty boots but I find them...
