I’m in the market for a chest rig to use with a XDM 10mm. I think that a chest rig like the Kenai would best suit my needs.
Does anyone have experience with the Scout rig vs the Kenai? I know the Kenai is a well proven system, just curious if I’d gain anything with the Scout, or just run the...
Up for discussion is a 10 year old CZ Canvasback over/under 20 ga.
The gun hasn’t been shot a ton, but shows a fair amount of wear. I mostly had this as a loaner gun for the occasional chukar hunt with my kids and friends. The wear is all cosmetic, it shoots great and goes bang every time. Comes...
What do you use for fill? Full disclosure, I just bought a Molinator bag and it’s super light, but I’m used to heavier material in bags. I have an assortment from Cole-tac, precision underground, and a few other brands.
The Molinator is the first one I’ve purchased that is extremely light, but...
I used to think that 4831 and H100 would get me better speeds over say 4350, but in my case results were as much as 75-100 fps faster using 4350 over the slower powders including 4831.
I dismissed 4350 at first thinking slower powders would be the ticket with 200 gr plus pills, but after lots...
I have a tikka action, 300 wsm, 22” benchmark barrel, running an U7 suppressor shooting 212 ELD-X’s with Norma brass and CCI 250 mag primers.
Long story short, I had UM do a +P on it and tried H4831sc running low 2700’s before pressure signs, and ultimately settled on 61 gr of H4350 pushing...
Got to admit, I’m a sweaty mofo when I hike/run. Doesn’t take much and my face is red and sweaty. Just my lot in life.
So is there any treatment you folks have tried for the exterior lenses so that my frequent pauses to glass are less friggin frustrating due to fog building up thanks to my...
I went with the medium magnetic version with rangefinder pouch and bottom pouch. Got them in August and used them on 3 hunts so far. No complaints on the size of mine. Depth and room is generous in my case. Using them on one last hunt after thanksgiving and really liking this set up. The under...
Brand new never used BA ultralight tipi 5 person. Two doors, the adjustable height pole, and stakes as it came from BA. Only blemish is some dirt on the stakes from setting it up once. Also includes a Lite Outdoors stove jack. I marked the tent with a thin sharpie line where I was going to have...
I wouldn’t say I’m a major optics snob, but I do like good glass and have had some time behind a variety of binos from Maven, Swaro, Leica, Vortex, zeiss, etc. I am picky enough that I tend to prefer the higher end binos and can notice lesser quality images with a lot of the mid and lower-priced...
1. I was a little apprehensive that 16x would be a little too much, especially in Alaska where you can go from glassing a wide expanse to looking at moose within 100 yards in the thick brush. Never felt overpowered and actually always preferred having the extra mag and image stability over the...
I bought the 16x back in late August and so far had them on successful elk and moose hunts. I’ll admit I’m not the best glasser or spotter in my group of hunting buddies, but with these I was spotting things first most of the time. The first time I tested them against my Meopta 10x, I was...
H4350 with 212 eld-x’s was the winner for me. Before I got my can (U7 Gen 1) it was shooting lights out with H4831sc at around 2740 fps. When I got the can, it bumped it up in pressure and was causing a lot of carbon build up, and stiff bolt lift. That was a stout load before the can, but I...
Just got back from a moose hunt and I have nothing but awesome experiences with the ELD-X. My 300 wsm shooting 212’s at 2800 fps took one shot flop kills on a bull moose and two black bear. Shots were 160 yds, 25 feet, and 60 yards respectively. So yeah, all close shots that made some big wound...
Well, after some research and ordering a couple to try, I think it’s going to be the Big Agnes Anvil Horn 0 degree. It’s wider and roomier than many options mentioned, and I didn’t like the quilt options I tried. I think the Anvil Horn is a really nice bag, and I was able to use a discount...
I went with a TBAC ultra 7, purchased from Mile High Shooting Supply, and I went with the Area 419 hellfire mount system.
For the A419 mount, all you have to do is buy the U7 as a CB mount version with no CB adapter, and buy the hellfire suppressor mount for the ultra 7. After that it’s $40...
