    Tangent Theta vs ZCO vs Schmidt vs Kahles

    Interesting. I’ve not used the ZCO 5-27 or the March 4.5x28. Like yourself, I have only read rave reviews on the ZCO scopes and intrigued by your assessment. While different models that are more compact in size,, I do own a ZCO420 and a March 2.5x25x52, both used quite extensively for LRH...

    Questions about Remington 700 BDLs

    You might consider/investigate Permalyn finish. It is as easy to apply as an oil finish, can be applied to to taste(rubbed or gloss), and, most importantly since it is both oil and polymer based, it is very scratch, wear and water/moisture resistant. The best of both types of finish. I have...

    What extinct or endangered animal would you like to hunt and what rifke wouod you use ?

    My choices have been in the endangered category for decades. First would be a Tiger, a close second would be the Black Rino. My firearms of choice would be my Whitworth 375H&H, and 500-450 H&H.

    Did my hunt of a lifetime a few decades ago for African Lion in Botswana….tracked on foot. Would really like to do it again, but not sure it’s possible to replicate, due to cost, achieving the same hunt parameters, and…..My “Spring Chicken” days are well behind me…….But….. If I can pull it off...

    Might join the PRS / NRL22 group. Need help

    I got into PRS/NRL22 when it was first gaining popularity back in the 2016 time frame. My buddy and I had shot various long range precision shooting venues for several years(ie.vintage sniper, egg shoots, Silhouette, etc.), At the time, well over 80% of the PRS match participants were new to...

    I like my Evolution bipod. I pack a set of the short extension legs for the high brush/grass, sitting shots.

    What would you do?

    I’d keep it simple and opt for a 300WM with some weight(+12 pounds). Liight recoil with a good brake, easy to load, accurate, sufficient energy for elk at 1000 yards, and a good selection of well proven bullets( ie 210 Berger). IMO…
