What sort of tripod/tripod head are you running?
coues7 replied to mp_moody's topic in Optics and tripods
I use Feisol carbon legs (CT-3441S)and a Manfrotto 701HDV. Very light setup. I love mine. -
I have tried everything. I personally like the one made by the guys in St. Johns or the S4. To fit the 10x50 SLC's you have to modify the S4 though. I talked with their engineers and they are going to come out with an XL that will fit the 10x50's and 15x56's. Scott

If the best a person can dois a 3" group at 200 yards (1.5 MOA)they have no business shooting beyond that distance. A 1.5 MOA carried to 300 is 4.5", 400 yards is 6", 500 yards is 7.5", etc. I personally do not believe that is adequate enough to knock off an ethical shot......that's just me though. As Doug (Redrabbit) mentioned, without turrets a person is severely handicapped. I know a gentleman who practiced out to 1000 yards doing hold overs and drop charts with no turrets. He likely went through hundreds of rounds practicing this method. Even a person doing this I would not recommend taking shots past 300 yards. Another piece of equipment a person needs to take longer shots is a good reliable range finder. Estimating yardages past a "couple" of hundreds is difficult, especially under pressure. Scott

Why load for velocity? If the thing shoots lights out at 1gr below max, go with it. Seating depth affects pressure. The more of the neck you have holding the bearing surface of the bullet the higher the velocities will be. What chronograph are you using? If you are 1 gr below max, you are definitely not on the low range of your velocity spread for that bullet/powder combo.

I purchased a new carbon tripod so I need to sell my trusty Bogen/Manfrotto 3001BD legs and 390RC2 Panhead with three (3) quick detach plates. The tripod is in pristine shape (no problems, no scratches, dents, dings, missing parts, foot pieces etc.) The package is around $215 new. I'm asking $115 shipped. First person to post "I'll take it gets it". Scott

Package has sold.

Rangecon, That buck, in my opinion, is a shooter. His G2 on the left side looks great. None of the pictures posted show his right G2. Width is outside the ears.....nice buck.

When someone gets this figured out please the "how to".

Rockslide Closes Road to Fossil Creek from Strawberry
coues7 replied to Red Rabbit's topic in The Campfire
I'm sure the USFCircus will have it closed soon....probably until 2013, because its "oh so hard to do a road repair" -
I would recommend you contact your county and local representatives.....on top of all that contact the USFCirus and demand answers. This is simply the government keeping the citizen/taxpayer out of "their forest"

Sweet. I bet that's not to often that you get two great bears on a single trip. Congrats and thanks for sharin'. Both boars? What unit? -
Congrats Mason. Don't worry about anyone's opinion but your own. If you are happy that is all that matters. Beautiful bull.
