I wish I was closer, I’d be there.

I’ve got a set. I’d take 15’s over them if weight isn’t an issue. I’d take 12’s if weight is a big issue. I’m underwhelmed

Gorgeous! If it weren’t for the short barrels I’d be all over this!! Fortunately I think most guys prefer short barrels

I got 34a. It had the early season dates this year which work better for my farming schedule. I’m sure we’ll be able to track one down.

Correction. I did get my goulds tag just wasn’t a big enough charge for a text, had to check my app. The bison charger sure as heck was though son of a beach

Welp. Didn’t expect that. No goulds tag with 29 points but drew a bull bison tag with 10 🤦🏻‍♂️

I agree. I’ve spent well over $1000 on high end bipods and I still keep coming back to the Harris S25. In the short mode it’s perfect height for me prone. It’s the only one that when extended is perfect height for me to shoot sitting down. Faster then any other bipod out there to deploy, and if you actually sit down and compare the specs, they’re lighter then the other ones that are comparable lengths. Best of all they’re 1/3-1/4 the cost of the “high end” bipods.

I think they’re two very different Binos. If I had to pick one of the two for the rest of my life I’d pick 12’s over 15’s for general use, but they aren’t really apples to apples. The 14’s are more of a direct competitor to the 15’s, and from what I could see, the only advantage the 14’s have is size and weight. The image on the 15’s was better in my eyes. Definitely more magnification (the whole 14.7 on the 14’s vs 15’s must not be true; either that or the 15’s are 15.9 because there’s definitely more noticeable magnification on the 15’s)

Yeah. Heat waves were brutal, as you know nothing is immune to that. I was hunting a particular buck Eli had found so honestly didn’t glass with them a ton on that hunt since I spent most of the two days it took to kill him wandering around the desert in the blazing sun.

I got some time to sit down side by side with them, 15’s and 12 NL’s. They are good, not earth shattering. The 15’s are better in my opinion, just heavier. I’m gonna keep em all as I feel like they all have their niche, but if someone held a gun to my head and made me sell one pair right now it would be the 14’s.

Gasssssoooooliiine. I use a cheap chest freezer. Run it about 2-3 hours a day depending on how hot it is. Keeps things nice and cold. Then when I kill, I can run it longer if needed.

80 grains by weight of BH209 is a very stout load for mose traditional (non magnum) Muzzleloaders. If it’s a Remington ultimate or one of the Paramounts you can go above that but most of them that’s a pretty heavy load.

777 will shoot fine if you can mimic the same exact sequence in the field that you do at the range. Shoot, run a patch, shoot etc. The problem is, the second you let it ride around in the truck and in and out of camper etc with humidity and temp changes it goes to heck. The fouling takes on moisture from the air and the crud ring it leaves will shred your sabots different then at the range and it’ll shoot different. Blackhorn mitigates a lot of that by being oil rather then water based

Correct me if Im wrong, but Barack couldn’t be VP since he constitutionally can’t hold the title of president again.

One and the same.

I know it wrecks the fun of ripping on the big money guy, but this says it’s the Super Raffle Bull, so the only money needed to qualify for this one was $20.

That explains it. I had one of those and the glass was garbage and the reticle had so much crap going on I couldn’t see anything myself.

Correct. He might actually bring people out to vote for Trump, which is the point. Short of my homie Doug Burgum, I think Vance is an excellent pick.

That’s what I don’t get. With drones these days, there is no way that guy should have ever been able to crawl across that whole roof without being seen.

I know no one cares about Eastern whitetails, but I’m getting this buck mounted. He lived on my farm for 9-10 years and I never saw him in real life until this day. Crafty old dude. Just thought it would be a cool mount and he was a trophy to me for sure.

Seems like it’s extra prevalent in businesses that work on a big deposit. You start giving a decent percentage of this population half of their paycheck up front and half at completion, it gets real easy to just start taking deposits and worrying about the completion end of it later. My list of taxidermists across this entire country that I trust fits on one hand. I’ve been burned by too many of them. Thousands in lost deposits to a couple in NM and and AZ where I pretty much had to show up and just take back my capes.

Oh man. Wish I lived closer. I don’t need one of these but I need one of these

Got them in the mail today. Unfortunately no tripod stud yet as outdoorsman won’t ship them till 8/1 so all I could do is hand hold them. They handle about like a 12 NL. I feel like the weight makes them a little more stable to hand hold then the 12’s and a more shaky due to the power. WAY better to hand hold then 15’s. They fit in my stone glacier medium bino harness. A little tight but fit snug. 15’s aren’t even close to fitting in there. I’ll put some pics up. They’re right between 15’s and 12’s on weight. I think they could replace my 15’s, but I won’t be sellling my 12’s for sure as these definitely aren’t a replacement for 12’s. If you can only afford one or the other, buy 12’s. They’re nearly identical dimensions to my EL range TA’s except for better in the bino harness since they’re sleeker and don’t have the big fat bass belly on them like the ranges do. Sorry, can’t speak much to optics on them as I didn’t have them on a tripod.

I thought of that but didn’t wanna get sticky icky on em!! I’ll rig something up when I get back from the holiday weekend.

You made out good on that one!
