    Aluminum or steel rings?

    I have gone to Burris Signature and Warne Steel. I had Talley rings on my .300 RUM and the rear ring basically shattered. It was probably just one bad ring, but I won't chance it again. Could have been disaster on a hunt.

    They (the career politicians) all need to go. This strike will bring about no good...there are no good guys here.

    mountain lion stalking in on doe.

    Never hurts to give it a try. I got in the habit of carrying a sidearm right after it became legal. Hunted 27 one year (several years back) and had a cat around our camp at night. Pretty unnerving when you know it is there, and then head out in the AM at O'Dark Thirty looking for deer with only a bow, but we were there to hunt, and I figured I was armed (with the bow) so what the heck right? Third morning I was out sitting a little trail on a cut kinda half asleep at the switch, and all of a sudden had the hairs raise on the back of my neck and got the feeling I was being watched. Never saw anything, but went from feeling normal to 1000% Red Alert in a heartbeat. Sidearms became legal that year, so out of the truck and onto the hip it went. Been there when I bowhunt ever since.

    Nitto terra grapplers or Big O bigfoot A/T's

    Well ... if you hadn't already bought, I'da thrown a wrench in your works. I've run Hankook All Terrains in Load Range E on my 2500 Dodge Diesel for years. First set I got 70K out of. Second Set I got 65K out of. Current set I have 35K on and they are wearing like iron. My wife has them on her Yukon in a lighter "E" (still an E though), and she has about 45K on them ... still looking good. Anyone looking ... I'd really look at these.

    Seeking Youth Shotgun Advice

    You can't go wrong with a 500 Mossberg or an 870 Remington. 1300 Winnie is no slouch either. But I would caution you on the "take the kick" part of a 12 Gauge. You don't want him to develop a flinch. Better to go 20 Gauge if there is any doubt about a 12 Gauge. Better to buy a 20 and sell it later than develop a severe flinch.

    Optics

    Oh yeah ... and now that you got off your butt and signed up ... go over and post about yourself on Family Values. Just a short blurb about who you are and what you do and all that stuff.
  14. I used to just spray cleaner in the action, spray some lube, clean the barrel and call it good. Now I take it down to parts every time I use it. Pain in the butt, but pumps that won't cycle aren't worth a crap, so its worth a little bit of work.

    Bump for a good guy. Hey Jim ... did you end up rekeying 170 at Building 1 RST yet??? Give me a holler tomorrow. Anyone needs a great Locksmith ... or a gun safe ... Jim is your guy.

    Need to sell some rifles

    HAHAHA....I know the feeling. I hate selling stuff. Always wished I had it back. Then again ... I get buyer's remorse every time I buy something new and feel like I should get my money back out of it. Seriously ... talk to 1Shot on optics. He's selling a bunch of stuff for a neighbor who fell on some hard times so that the guy's wife will benefit from the proceeds. I know he's got some 15x Swaros and a bunch of other stuff. I don't think they are the HD's though, but I'd bet the price will reflect that.

    Bore sighting

    I've done it every which way. I have a laser that works well in my larger rifles. In the smaller ones (that are bolt) I just look down the bore at about 30-40 yards like was discussed prior. Both ways work. One costs money, the other doesn't. Laser might put you a little tighter, but not overly so.

    Need to sell some rifles

    Man ... you're selling my lower???? I'm hurt. 1Shot is a newbie, but I've known him for about 15 years. Great guy. He's got quite a bit in the way of Swaro stuff he's selling.

    Sighting in my bow, and getting frustrated...

    Hopefully you now have an idea what follow through is all about. When I get into a shooting slump, it's because I forget my follow through, which causes me to pull and shoot inconsistently. For me ... follow through is like tunnel vision. My focus never shifts from that tiny spot on the target I am looking at ... even when the bow falls away from my hand. That kind of focus prevents torqueing the bow. Aim small ... miss small.

    Binos, Good,Ok,dont bother

    Used them a lot. FOV is good ... smaller than low power glass, but good for 15x's I think. For the money its good stuff. Still wished I had Swaros, but I don't lose sleep over it.

    Yeah ... they probably did ... just didn't want to advertise it. Obama loves racism ... I'm sure the guy is getting a bump up the ladder.
  24. Always better quality glass vs higher magnification.
