I always find those small/fast calibers of 7600s interesting, they seem pretty common, but odd to me for a brush gun type rifle.
I have a 35 Whelen 7600 and I did get the trigger worked on, but it is a crazy creepy thing even though it is smooth and light. I can shoot it well especially given...
Those would be sweet, the green color is a great one for turkey.
I started using OR impregnated gaiters and they work well, I would think your pants would be great.
I don't think it will help with drift, but speed. The speed of the balance (taring and weighing) is way faster on a stable base, so a decrease in vibration speeds it up.
It is not uncommon to see that in science labs. I've seen it more under microscopes that need vibration dampening, though. The key, I think, is to have a heavy block, but also have some shock absorbing feet on the slab.
I've posted this before, but I have a chargemaster and it works amazingly...
I had 2 and they both did it, I can't tell you more than that. Customer service or the rangefinder tech did not suggest the battery saver. I've moved on and don't have one to fiddle with, so I can't be of much help.

In the late fall I bought a Sig KILO 3K. I've owned a fair number of range finders (couple Nikons, Bushnell, and a couple Sigs) and bought the Sig KILO 3K to replace a Sig KILO 2000 (that I really liked) that the auto brightness on the display crapped out at 5 years and a couple months.
This...
For pest control the CCI segmented rounds work very well. They have "Segmented Quiet", which are really slow, but they are quiet and hit hard. They also have "Segmented Subsonic", which are very accurate in my tikka. They do a lot of damage and kill quickly. For pest control these would be my...
The anti-predator hunting crew considers any killing of wolves as an tragedy. Are they any more offended by this than killing than typical trapping or hunting? I'm sure they are excited that their PR machine has grist for its mill.
I like how Ucsdryder put it above, but I'd edit a bit... put me...
Set up a discrete bait station and trap them. Shooting is more fun to think about, but a trap works all day every day vs occasional shooting bouts. There are good live traps that can catch multiples and they will keep coming.
A 10 day mountain hunt is too much for most adults.
I've done it, but with my wife along. I'd never recommend it unless your kid was a real special kid (and you would only know that if you had the kid in that situation already (which you haven't)).
Ideally, he should be waiting for new tags to come out to start building points on. Some that will be available in the next few years: SD pheasant tag, WY yellow-bellied marmot stamp, Montana feral pigeon tag, Colorado cottontail nonresident tag, and Nevada ground squirrel. ;)
