I take the easy way to avoid this problem, I use a torque screwdriver and mount it properly.when done this way I have never had a problem. Side effects of propper mounting include scope working and tracking properly.
Don't refer to residents as "us" speak about yourself, lots of residents likely dont want to be associated with you and your terrible opinions...they are not facts and frankly make you look stupid.
Good luck matt, cant wait to hear about the adventures!
Family of 3, we typically need minimum 2 elk a year and some combination of 3-6 deer and antelope. Friends benefit in years when have extra elk tags (3 is common) or draw something like bison but have the processing ability and equipment...
I have had PF for years but seldom rest, cold treatments and stretching didn't fix. Last November rupted my left foot and at moment it went it sucked! After 5 minutes it was sore but movable, slowed me down but finished season with less pain than before rupture. Doc said rest 4-5 months should...
I think its important for making purchasing decision on this topic that a manufacturers pants are not the same from the base to most expensive. 5.11 and tru-spec both have at least a dozen different models so you cant compare a $20 set of CQRs to mid set of 5.11 or high end models of truspecs...

@kansasdad Let's talk muzzy, what's the weapon and load your going to use on this adventure? I am not kansas rules familiar so not sure what's even allowed. My little experiance in that area, its pretty wide open and should be fun challenge.
I got 12x12 alaknak with vestibule, rain fly and barrel stove. If your in market, i don't use much anymore. Pm if interested, if not I don't think you can go wrong with this style if you want to roomy but mobile.
I am a huge truspec fan! I wore the 24/7 daily as uniform item until I retired. To say I (and others worked with) were hard on them is a true understatement. I evolved to the expeditions for hunting pants due to better practical design and less as a uniform appearance. The expeditions have...
One of these years you should meet me down south and try a hunt in the land with few trees. Don't worry we have a shitload of tripods, ladder stands and shooting houses...lol
i have had a ton of deer walk right next to tripod and never flinch, they don't expect danger where i am i think. 2 years ago i had a buck rubbing a sapling dinging one of the tripod legs as he did it. its all about just sitting still and waiting expecting them close. That's particularly why i...
tripod? i have had great luck in high grass/brushy areas cutting 10-12' tripods right into tall brush and when i stand up i effectively pop out of top of brush to shot, just have benefit of minor elevation to improve shooting lanes. you just have to sit REAL still at prime time as your...
