    Scope rings

    FEENIX, THANKS FOR THE VIDIO LINK. i looked into these a long rime ago. Maybe I should have tried them out. So could you use the signature rings in the same manner as a 20mm or so rail to get your zero closer to the bottom of you skope adjustments to gain more distance?

    Rok Stock

    I went in there the other day and Ryan Avery gave me a walk through. Him and I used to shoot trad. Bows together a bit back when I was still building customs. I was very impressed with that stock. If the wife and I were not in the pay everything off mode right now I would own one. I would...

    6.5mm 150g ABLR.

    Two seasons ago one of my buddy's shot a 5x5 Elk. Neck shot so the Bull did drop right there but the bullet did not exit just blew up on contact.
