    New from Kansas

    I did get my elk, a youngish 6x6. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to get out there during the main part of the rut and never heard a bugle so locating them was difficult. Took me almost 2 full weeks of hunting over the course of the month of October and part of November to get it done. You really...

    SOLD/EXPIRED SWFA 6x Mil

    No, I can’t justify that one. I mean I get it, I watched crazier things happen following Covid with supply and demand economics, but this is a budget rifle project I’m setting up for my son. You can buy a brand new zeiss v4 for $40 more than that listing, and veteran discounts make a lot of...

    SOLD/EXPIRED SWFA 6x Mil

    I want one but I don’t think a used one should cost more than msrp for a new one if that’s what you’re getting at

    SOLD/EXPIRED SWFA 6x Mil

    Hi all. Looking for a 6x fixed in mils. Please let me know if you have one you’re willing to sell. I have a lot of reloading brass for 7mm rem mag, 308 and 6.5cm as well if there would be interest in a trade, have some powders/primers as well if you’re local to the Kansas City area (I won’t...

    Which annealer?

    Have an annealeez, not a fan of open flame and having to go outside if I want to be safe. Annie sure looks cumbersome, need to buck up and buy the AMP. Love the idea of aztec mode figuring out the ideal setting with the amp.

    Tripods for spotting scope

    Have a slik 634 and a benro s2. Works but don’t love it, just not as solid with the spotter but I have a heavy 80mm swaro. Works great with binos but reconsidering my tripod setup to pull double duty with my rifle too and looking at options

    Best out of these three. Lapua, Peterson, or ADG

    I have almost 10 reloads on 300 win mag lapua brass and primer pockets are still tight, accuracy is great, brass integrity is great, neck tension very consistent and shoulder resizing is always within .001”. I anneal after every firing btw. Have Petersen for my 7mm mag and it has been good too...

    best cell trail camera 2023

    Bought 5 Moultrie Edge cameras this year on sale at about $50 each. Heck of a deal, hilarious thing is a month of service and 8 lithium AA batteries cost about as much as the camera. Photo/video quality is ok if you download the high res or full videos but the standard preview is like a 2006...

    Need tripod advice

    In a similar boat. Lost an older bog pod tripod recently and looking for a replacement. Started looking at options that can accommodate picatinny or arca systems - really liked this Leofoto system for an economic setup (Leofoto SA-324C+MA-30L head), and the RRS kits are top of line, but I’m...

    Some Piece of equipment you feel is overly hyped

    Wet tumbling. Used to think super clean brass would get me more consistency but have had far better results with corn cob/walnut media in a vibratory tumbler. Wet fart sits on the shelf

    Beginner gun fanatic

    When I was in the army we’d dry fire in the unsupported prone position with a coin, usually a dime or penny, on the end of the barrel and make sure you could pull the trigger without knocking the coin off. Would help with trigger control/breathing/etc but my biggest lessons were obtained simply...

    Garmin Xero - update

    How is the interface, is everything on an app like labradar? My labradar is a little wonky with the app connecting, would recognize multiple devices that were all the same one. Being garmin I would think it’s pretty refined but curious how it operates? I like the small size for sure
