Striking out ...Stone Glazier's aren't big enough according to the dimensions. I watched the FHF video and I can't see why their large size won't work, but maybe the top won't bend itself into shape for the larger bino's. I guess I need to make a phone call.
The Swarovski 15x56 fit if I turn the eye cups all the way in and remove the eye cup caps, but you have to work a bit to make sure the harness top closes properly and those two things suck to be honest, as I don't want to have to turn them all the out and in each time I take them out and I would...
I did some reading on pouch style harnesses, because I've rocked just the Cabelas style harnesses for years on my Leica 15x56 Geovids and 15x56 Swarovski SLC's. I ended up buying the large Eberlestock harness and just received it. So my Leica's don't fit, they are too tall and the Swaro's go in...
My usual routine is fire one shot and then let the barrel cool for 5 minutes, then shoot 2nd shot and let barrel cool for 5 minutes and repeat one more time. This was because my shooting range in CA(when I lived there had a 10 minute rule of shooting). And then I repeat this scenario for as...
I haven't searched to see if or when this has been discussed, but I was thinking 'bout how do guys sight in their guns? Do they use a sled, or bags or shooting sticks, offhand, a bench, off the truck, do you have a level on your scope, how do you hold the gun, how do you control your heartbeat...
FYI--Federal nickel plated brass and Hornaday brass weigh more than the Weatherby and Norma brass and could affect your handloads concerning the powder charge. Since this brass weighs more the wall thickness is greater and the internal capacity of the Federal and Hornaday cases are actually...
My son bought a Howa 300 win mag GameKing 2 yrs ago and we got it to shoot pretty good. I don't recall the group size, but it was better than 1" at 100 and we could ping the 6" dong at 300 yds, so all in all he's happy with it.
I've been lurking the last couple of weeks and it's been a long, long time since I've posted let alone a long time since I've been on here(a quick visit now and then over the years) and I decided to search ol' Moosie and what do I find? This thread and my eyes say "do not look" , "do not look"...
By freshly cleaned did you run a couple of dry patches down the pipe before you shot that first shot? It's usually a good idea to do so and I'd say it's mandatory if the pipe had an oil patch ran down it as the last part of "Freshly Cleaned".
#1 no range finder, but I'm guessing +450yds 4x5 rag horn .338 win mag thru the shoulder blades/spine fired 3 before I hit him because he was slightly further away than we thought(I was on one hill above him probably 100yds in elevation and he was coming down the hill opposite me, but he...
I'm sorry Kiwi, I forgot to come back and check this, well really I thought I'd get an email when someone responded. Yes I would've shipped it to you, but it did finally sell, so it's long gone now.
LandDiver--good luck and congrats with baby #5, although if baby #5 is coming in September you are either predicting the future, which will get you all sorts of attention, or you are going to be very famous for a pregnancy that lasted almost 11 months!!!
