I didn't read through the entire post, so forgive me if this has already been stated. I have installed 6 Timmney Triggers on Mod700 Remingtons. The Trigger guard housing needs to be milled out slightly to allow for clearance. The safety binds if this is not done. Don't know if this is also an...

IMR Enduron 7977. Just a step faster than H1000

Is it worth the risk of both you and the "borrower" being charged with a Felony and loosing many of your rights? The laws on suppressors are pretty clear as previously stated. You are the only one who is licensed to possess it. "Loose lips sink ships". The Federal Govt. works on a different...

I have aVX6 mounted on my hunting rifle. Have had it four years now with no touble or issues. I have a MK5 on my LR competition rifle and love it. It is very clear and again ive had no issues. Other guys at the shoots have tried it, compared it with their NightForce and US Optic scopes and can't...

Over the last 35 years, I have loaded the Nosler Partition for myself, Brother and my two boys. 40+ Elk kills from 20 to 450 yards. Countless deer kills, the furthest at 829 yards. Throw in a few Bears, Antelope and Coyotes. Nope, they don't have the highest BC, and aren't the newest greatest...

.018" Working for me.

Depends on the terrain. If we can, we use a wheeled cart. Chain saw winch is another tool we use and can also tow the cart up steep hills with it. I've got a spool with 1400' of line on it, if the animal is down a draw or canyon that is close to an accessible road, we set a snatch block on the...

They make a great product. I have a 12x14. They are great supporters of hunting groups and rights. Every year they donate a 14x16 to our OHA Chapter (Oregon Hunters Association)

Yes, it is a statistical "window" of how close the shots will fall within the group. Here's a simple explanation from TechBookReport.com: Standard Deviation In 30 Seconds (Or standard deviation for dummies...) What is it? The standard deviation is a measure of statistical dispersion. In...

Extream spred is the difference between the highest velocity and the lowest. Standard deviation is a mathematical formula that measures / averages the spred between the number of velocities that are measured.

I have a MK5 w/o the illumination, great scope. I have a MK6 on my hunting rifle that has the illumination. Can't say that it ever helped me. I think the only time it would be of value in low light or fog where it would be quick to pull your eye to the dot. For longer ranges or across a draw, I...

I find myself hardly using 100y at all anymore. I shoot my ladder tests at 300 as well as my tuning loads. If you have a good shooter, there may not be enough variations at 100 to really decide. It's easier to see at longer distances. All mentioned above applies, looking for low ES/SD. If...

Yes, confirming with them would be my first step. I have a MK 4 and a MK 5. Both work flawlessly. Their customer service is excellent should you have a problem.

And don't forget the new blind and ATV and camo........ Have her watch this with you, it will explain a lot! Hilarious! Jeff Foxworthy - "Are you going Huntin' again?"

I have a Wildlife Technologies call and have been using it for 6 years. It's built like a tank and has a high quality speaker. I have friends that have Foxpros and they are all amazed how much louder and clearer this is. This may not be an issue for you in PA calling on a farm, but in the...
