    Scope Upgrades…

    I would advise anyone wanting a VX-3/VX-III to go up another level. I had a VX-3i and it was junk. It was supposed to replace a VX-II and after shooting it at 250 yards, sold it and put the VX-II back on there. VX-II would hold 1 inch, VX-3i was holding about 3 inches. Same mounts. Same...

    Investments - what has served you well?

    I want to agree with you - bought my place in 2000 and watched it quadruple in value up til this year. Funny thing is that it was 8% interest we bought it at, then refinanced at 6% and 3-ish% as able. Was amazing to see the interest rates fall and housing prices shoot up cause folks were...

    CVA Optima

    I should update this... The 225 gr FTX bullet performed very well on a 100#-class FL buck. It was a bad shot - think i just centered the cross hairs on the body and let it rip. Seems like got the liver and def got the stomach at about 40 yards - bullet went thru, sending out a spray of gore...

    NR Tags Could Get Huge Price Increase

    50% of the tags could go sky high and become the new normal. imo, they will sell. might shift the focus off WY only and create more state jumpers?

    Vortex Scope V-Plex or Deadhold BDC

    If you are not gonna dial, vortex is as good leupold. Sold a vx3i cause it held a group at 250 and not a point. My diamondback holds zero better. have a diamondback w bdc and its decent. My older viper is better for low light if you need the last second or more. Both hold an inch at 250 yards.

    Hurricane Ian

    Incredible what the storms can do - the one that hit Mexico Beach a couple years back erased a bunch of houses and put 30+ ft boats 1/4 to 1/2 mile inland. I love the beach but don't want to live on it.
