    Another boot selection thread

    I've tried probably 10-15 pairs of boots in the last year or so. technically I wear a size 14.5, but that isn't made in any shoes, so I have to try both 14 & 15 sizes to find something that works. I also have a narrow-ish, full sized foot... Narrows are too narrow, so I have to find a boot with...

    Can question ( Omega 30 )

    You will need to go to the range and get data without the can. I use QD muzzle devices with almost all my cans, primarily the YHM system (just trying out the area 419 system now, so not enough experience with it to give feedback). It is extremely repeatable in my experience. I use the omega 30...

    Tripod recommendations glassing/shooting

    I've used slik 733, 834, and a Sirui that is a 4 piece leg that is similar in weight to the 733 but supposed to hold more weight than both the slik models mentioned. If you're interested in the Sirui model I'll have to look when I get home... I can't remember specifically which one it was. I've...

    Boots for size 14-15

    My feet measure 14.5, so usually I wear a 15, or a large fitting 14. I have an average-to-narrowish-side sized foot. & I just went through all this about 3 or 4 months ago. I am "breaking in" kenetrek mtn extremes right now. Crispi makes 1 model that's a 15, I think it was the Nevada, but I...
