    15x Binos vs Spotting scope

    I find that a 10x42 on a tripod can pick off animals further than I'm willing to walk many times. The tripod is the secret sauce for great visibility. I watched a herd of elk last week feeding 2 plus miles away. It's been posted here before by many. A 10x42 will do what you need it to do 95%...

    What's on the smoker today?

    I cured some country style ribs then smoked them. My version of Canadian bacon.

    Rimfire Rifle Recommendations

    I had a vortex diamondback lying around so that's what is getting used for now. Goes up to 13x I believe, more than I need right now. For field use it's actually perfect. I will keep an eye out for a scope I can dial but won't break the bank. Then it will truly function like my hunting rifle.

    I just got a tikka t1x over the weekend. And picked up my silencer for it this afternoon. Went straight to the fields for some gophers. Out to 75 yards shots were deadly. Just ordered a limbsaver recoil pad so it will feel exactly like my t3x. This 22 is a sweet little shooter.

    Spend my money on a chronograph

    I've been using it for load development for 10mm for the past few days. Attached it to my tripod I use with my spotter and just started shooting. It's small size makes it so versatile.

    Suppressor

    How the heck you do you pull apart the baffles? Talk about a tight fit. I can't budge them and I don't want to use anything sharp to wedge them apart.

    Suppressor

    I just put one on my 22 bolt action. With subsonic ammo it's James Bond quiet. Gopher hunting in stealth mode is insanely fun.

    Northern lights tonight

    What the heck. Might as well add my pics. I think it's cool that people took the time to go out and enjoy this rare occurrence.

    Bozeman: is it really that bad anymore?

    The system is screwed up. Not just here, but throughout the nation. All of us eventually will be taxed or if our homes. We are retired. We purposely bought a small home in the poorest part of town because we were planning for the long haul. We are praying that 20 years from now we can...

    My wife's bergara carbon bmr is deadly. And that's with cheap ammo. I just shot a gopher at 110 yards this afternoon with it. Cz 457 is a no brainer. Like you. My hunting rifle is a tikka. I'm thinking of getting the t1x. Tikka is supposed to be a great gun as well.

    Bozeman: is it really that bad anymore?

    In the past year I have noticed Bozeman residents are spilling over into Livingston. Lots of number 6 plates here all of a sudden. It will be interesting to see if they last. The pass can be rough in the winter. Also the number of people shore fishing along 89 heading south is incredible. I...
