Look at Suncoast Transmissions. They specialize in Allison transmissions. When I had my 2004 2500Hd I had it tuned and other work done. I did the transmission first and the guy doing my work recommended Suncoast. I did my research and ended up going with a Suncoast transmission and the...
I've had a 6.5PRC in a SA, XM and a LA. The Short Action was a Bergara that had major feeding issues and had been back to Bergara multiple times. Bergara ended up buying the rifle back from me. Cudos to Bergara. My next was a Alamo Precision Maverick and it came in a LA. Great rifle and...
I have 3 of these from Walmart. They work great. I use the green light mostly. I always have one in my truck, in my day pack and in the house.

I don't think there is a do all treestand, daypack multi day pack that will cover all of those areas acceptably. I deer hunt in the east mostly and carry a Badlands Superday pack. I've hunted Montana a couple of times and going back next November. Originally I bought a MR Metcalf for next year...
I've hunted with AWGS and they were top notch! Actually the deer in my avatar pic is one that I shot up there. If I were going to go back to Alberta they would be the service I'd go with.
I have a 6.5PRC, 7PRC and also a 300WM. The 7PRC will do everything the 300WM will with the same weight bullets and more. I've decided to keep the 7PRC as my all around rifle and sell the 300WM. When I look at the ballistics and compare the 7PRC to the 300WM the PRC starts surpassing the WM...
I've been using a Badlands Superday for a couple of years now. Really like it. I use it for whitetail and treestand hunting. Carries everything I need comfortably. The hip built even has a built in pistol holster. If you need something a bigger to also haul out meat then any of the MR Pop-up...
The Atlas with the non rotating legs is rock solid. It deploys as quickly as the Harris. I have 2 of them and at least for range work wouldn't use another bipod.
I was going back and forth between the MR Metcalf and Exo K4-5000. I ended up with both and promptly sold the Metcalf. The K4 fit me better and after putting about 10 miles on with both and a 50lb load there wasn't much of a comparison. I know 50lbs isn't that heavy but for me I could...
A couple of years ago I had a whole herd of squirrels all around me while I was up in a deer stand. Non stop noise. They were either barking at me or chasing each other around and sounding like a herd of deer coming my way. Now I carry a suppressed Ruger Mk 4. The little bastages are no longer...
I was having the same considerations and ended up going with the 5000. When comparing the dimensions on the Exo site there wasn't enough difference to warrant going with the 3600 instead of the 5000. One thing I say a lot is "Better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it!"
