    On X question

    Been using the app. Is there a way to get an azimuth from one point to another? For example, from the blue dot where I am standing, I want to know the magnetic compass bearing to get to a waypoint on the map ( or some other feature like a lake, etc). Thanks!

    Day pack for elk hunt?

    I will be going on a guided elk hunt in Colorado this fall. I would like a day pack that I can carry my rifle in and is capable of carrying out an elk quarter, if necessary. Not too big and not too small. Recomendations? Thanks!

    300 Win Mag Brass

    I probably should have been more specific in my question. I prefer Lapua brass, but can't find any. I have found a supply of Norma, Winchester, and remington. Any strong preferences against any of these?

    Mildot vs MOA vs Rapid Z

    Hammerhand (and everyone else that has experience with using the Rapid Z at different elevations), I own a Zeis with a rapid Z. I live in Texas and so far have not had to deal with elevation differences where I hunt. I am planning an elk hunt this year. Max distance I will shoot will be 600...

    Comparing the Berger 210 VLD to the 215 Hybrid

    I dont mean to hijack thias great thread, but can you guys tell me how long your 210 and 215s are from the base to the tip? I'm getting ready to build a 300 win mag and am trying to figure out if the long ones will fit in a regular rem mag box or if I need to use a wyatt's box. Thanks. Sandman

    New Build .300 Win Mag Question on cartridge length

    I'm getting ready to build a .300 win mag using a rem 700 action. I want to be able to shoot the high BC VLD type bullets 190-210 grain.

    Zeiss conquest Rapid z

    I have been using a zeis conquest 4.5 x 14 rapid z 8oo this hunting season. I love it. Very fast and accurate if you know your muzzle velocity and use the zeis website to optimize the various holdover bars. The glass is very clear. I suggest testing the scope set at your optimized power to make...
