I have owned the scope for one year. I'm the original owner. I'm only selling the scope because I haven't used the scope in the field since I bought it. I've decided to part ways and use the money for my kids hunting gear. Perfect condition. Ocular and objective lenses have no defects. Tiny...

Starting to research dogs for upland game hunting (Blue Grouse, Ruffed Grouse, stocked Pheasants, possible Quail, possible Chucker). May do do some waterfowl hunting (ducks) but likely not a lot. Looking at GSP vs. Lab. I plan on putting the dog in formal gun/hunting training. I tried to...

When still hunting Mule deer how slow do you go? I usually walk 7 steps or so, stop, give a really good look all around before moving again. I was never taught so I'm interested in how others approach this hunting method.

I've been looking at getting a bino harness. Getting tired of my binos bouncing around when I'm in the woods. Based on research, I have it narrowed down to FHF, Kuiu, and AGC. Vortex for 2016 has their version of the FHF and AGC bino harness backed by their VIP warranty. For all practical...

I'm having a difficult time finding good data on case head expansion for the 300 Win Mag. I'm using Nosler brass with Winchester magnum primers. I'm slowing working up my load in 0.5 grain increments. I have a micrometer (0.0001). After one firing, the case head expansion average is 0.0015...
