    What binoculars and power are you all using for hunting and scouting in open country

    I run the vortex razor 10x42 on a Sirui tripod, with the outdoorsman quick disconnect adapter. There’s 4 of us in our group, and everyone runs the same thing. Binos alone we can spot deer a mile out, I then have a spotter for better clarity at deep distances to see if it is something we want to...

    Mid Priced Compact/Lightweight Spotting Scopes

    I run the 20-60x85 vortex razor, have had it for about 6 years and love it, 60 zoom is a lil tough for clearity, that’s usually also a very long ways away. I know that’s not what your asking about, but I bet the 11-33x is quite good. My cousin dropped Mine out of the back of a truck and it...

    Trued actions vs fancy actions

    I had my 700 SA factory, blueprinted and trued... shoots great!! And I run good groups. That being said, I wish I would’ve just waited and saved a little more for a new action like defiance, my action isn’t stainless and requires a lot of care to keep cycling smoothly and rust free.

    6.5 creedmoor Ammo

    I’ve had very good success with Hornady 143 eld-x. Have 1/4- 1/2 MOA groups, and the bullets have provided all the knock down power I can ask for.

    308 or 6.5CM

    Is this gun going to be a bolt or AR? Sorry if it’s mentioned and I missed it. I would definitely build a 6.5, .308 does have more knock down power than a 6.5 under 300. But accuracy kills, I’ve seen multiple magnum rifles wound animals that were never found because of bad shots. and the 6.5 is...

    308 or 6.5CM

    As a former .308 owner, current 6.5 owner. 6.5 hands down. I re-chambered my .308 to a 6.5, and have absolutely no complaints. Ammo is easy to find if you don’t reload, comparable in price to the .308, And ballistics are way better. As to your questions about killing animals under 300 yards...
