    Chinese-made roof prism binoculars

    The Nikon Monarch ATB 8x42mm binocular has received a lot of praise recently. However, it is evident that these are not the only Chinese-made optics that are worthy of consideration.

    What is Fairbanks like?

    Are there good hunting and fishing opportunities for the Fairbanks resident? Can one hunt around there by driving and hiking? Would a 16' flat bottom boat with a 25 horse be a good fishing rig on the rivers around there? Is a snowmobile a good transportation mode in winter? How long is the drive...

    Minolta Activa D WP XL binoculars

    Well, I have had some time now with the Minolta Activa D WP XL 8x42mm binoculars I bought for my wife. I am pleasantly surprised with the overall quality of these Chinese made optics. The image is clear and bright, and they appear to be well collimated, seemingly equally the view of mid-range...

    WMR

    I found a dealer who has hundreds of pounds of discontinued WMR powder. I can get it from him in 1# cans for $10 each. He hinted at a cheaper price if I buy a case of cans. I bought 4 cans to start with and will be trying it in my 280 Rem A I. Anyone have any experience with this powder?

    Russian Boar in Wisconsin?

    What are your 139/140gr bullet, H4831 loads for the .280 Remington Ackley Improved? I've been told the maximum is around 62.5 grains. Does that sound about right?
