    Sell me a bed cover

    I put the ford branded soft tonneau cover on mine before it came home. I tried an ARE custom built topper. Talk about a waste of money. Doesn’t say much for the F150 build quality when the bed is made with so many open joints all a topper does is show you how dusty things can get.

    Looking to Relocate to SD (you lucky bast**ds).......

    Having had two serious heart attacks now… It’s a first concern I have for any locale… What is the response time? What’s it take to get to the nearest cardiac care? An air ambulance ain’t cheap.

    Versatile Riflescope Recommendations

    Last scope I bought was a Leupold VX3HD. My next one will likely be a Burris XTR III or the Meopta Optika6. The Meopta is supposed to be Schott (German) glass.

    “Traditional” First Aid vs “Wilderness” First Aid Course

    I was in a hunter ed, firearm safety class today and in observing, it’s clear there’s not a good class for “hunters first aid”. I suggested that folks would be smart to have a CAT torniquet as well as a SAM splint and medical tape to make a field expedient one way valve for a chest wound. Much...

    Trigger pull

    All I use. Matches what the gunsmiths I’ve had test my guns. Takes years of technical training and apprenticeships to use it correctly though.

    3-15 vs 4-20

    All we used out to 600 M with an M4 was the Trijocon ACOG TA01-NSN. All whopping 4X. The snipers has 10X fixed scopes on the M24 SWS.

    How to ruin a Leupold

    Leupold and countless others have made “the best scope” and in the guise of marketing and increasing sales, added more doodads and fidgets to an already functional and ideal piece of kit and now they are not longer “the best”.

    Rifle Cleaning Kit

    I’ll use an electronic bore cleaner maybe when I start seeing accuracy fall off. Otherwise my “gun cleaning habits” is now to make sure the moving parts are wiped off and operate correctly and lubed. Barrel rarely gets touched

    Best Bullett for 7mm Rem Mag

    The two I’m having great success with accuracy wise. Not a Rem Mag, but the same 7mm boolets. Past experience with corelokt has given me no reason not to use them.
