Scope mounts that "fit" both Weaver and Picatinny bases.
Yes, I did clean the screws and used a little blue loc tight pushed rings towards the muzzle and then torqued to specs on instructions. Never used this type before so wanted to confirm. Sounds like I will be fine with the set up. Thanks for all the replies. Love the new scope! -

Scope mounts that "fit" both Weaver and Picatinny bases.
Hi All, I have mounted several scopes over the years but am certainly no expert. I recently bought a new Steiner scope with 30mm tube for a Remington 700 I am fixing up. In shopping for rings the packaging does not often indicate the bases they fit. The retailer told me that the Vortex rings... -

Anyone made the switch from a compound to crossbow?
I had to go to X bow a few years back due to all the issues mentioned! Miss my verticals but love to hunt so the crossbow it is. Bought the Mission Sub1 that could be de-cocked without shooting. Walking around with it is not great and no longer still hunt during bow. Stand hunting is it and... -

Vension ribs
We like ribs as well. When butchering the entire deer I make chops and short ribs. Now usually take the back straps and cut the ribs into sections. Never used a pressure cooker but these look deeeeelicious! Will definitely give it a try. Thanks for sharing.- Drewd

Pump Rifles
I had a 742 auto loader in 30-06 for years and was very fast with a Williams hunting peep BUT would jam too often and could not take to PA. Traded it for 7600 pump with plastic stock (with recoil pad). As my eyes aged out I now use a 2x7-42 on top. It is a fast accurate gun. In the woods I... -

Crossbows and trapping, again
I agree. I had to go to a crossbow last year due to injury. With a rest they shoot great but without one I much prefer to use my Matthews (if I could). I went with the Mission Sub-1 and it is great but it is not a slam dunk in the woods! -

Bankrupt Gun Maker Remington Outdoor to be Broken Up and Sold
The quality had suffered the last years but they made millions of great guns. I have an 870 that I bought in 1977 that still looks and handles great. A newer 870 Express I scoped and use as a dedicated deer gun for shotgun areas not nearly as nicely finished as the older one but functions fine... -

Never Seen Damage Like This - Warning *Graphic*
Nothing seems worse than getting your chance, nailing the shot and having more damage than you would ever expect. Had some pretty good damage on a deer a couple of years ago but nothing close to this.- Drewd
