    Never Spoil your Bird Dog!

    This is my 2 year old Pudelpointer. He hunts as good as any dog I have ever seen and naps just the same.

    Getting in mountain shape with no mountains around?

    Long rucks with a weighted vest pulled tight, to the point of restriction on my chest, and a back pack. I don't know if the restriction helps of if its mental but it seems to do something.

    Do you use a sun shade on your scope or not?

    No, never have. There have probably been a few occasions where it would have helped but it wasn't with me to find out.

    Dream hunt animal

    Yukon Moose. It has been on the list since I was a kid. I'm doing an Alberta Moose archery hunt next year and hope that scratches the itch enough but I'm afraid that it won't.

    Chronographs

    Mine worked better with a larger caliber and muzzle brake. Trying it with a suppressor can be a challenge.

    Sierra Matchking or Barnes TSX? Why?

    I've had good luck with the Tipped Game King. Seen some pretty devastating results inside the cavity.

    It came together but need a new Range Finder

    I have this same pair and it hasn't failed me yet. One thing I like about it is that once the Kestrel is on and you get current conditions updated, You can leave it in your pocket or chest rig, unless you need a wind reading. The Kilo will talk to the Kestrel and get you a firing solution.

    28 Gauge Choice

    I have the same 20 gauge and love it. Its not as flashy as a 686 but will out shoot them every day. I have experience with a few other CZ shotguns and several handguns and have been very impressed with them.

    THEE only gun you'd never part with

    Remington Woodsmaster 30-06. My grandfather passed it down when he quit hunting. I shot several deer with it, now it lives in the safe. Retired, if you will.

    BergaraHMR

    I had something similar happen with mine. I ended up finding the root of the problem was that the action screws were torqued in the wrong sequence. I removed the stock then tightened the front screw first, then rear and it was a shooter again. I don't know if that will fix it but it worked for mine.

    First custom rifle - What trigger weight for a 7mm mag?

    Triggertech 1.5 for me. I've used some friends guns that were 7 or more and it was almost painful trying to hold a consistent pull through the shot.
