    Help me value some used Swarovskis?

    I have a line on some used Swarovski optics on an upcoming auction. The binos are listed as 10x42 and the spotter is listed as 20x60. I believe the binos are ELs based on the frame? By the picture can you tell me rough age, which models, and what you would feel they are worth? Would it be a...

    Point of diminishing returns

    The binoculars I have currently are okay, but far from great. They were what I could afford at the time. The lower quality is very noticeable at dawn and dusk, so basically when all the critters are moving. Thus, I am contemplating upgrading possibly this coming year, or for sure the next. I...

    Leupold Rings?

    The last set I put on where dual dove tail mounts. I initially did not lap the rings per Leupold's instructions. The scope slipped after some use so I went ahead and lapped the rings. I have had no problems since.

    Sling Keeperer - love the idea but skeptical...

    If you would like to try an option without punching a hole in your pack strap, this is what I am trying this year. I believe I saw a Jim Shockey ad for it. It wraps around your strap and velcros down. I haven't used it very extensively yet, but it worked in a quick try out when I put it on...

    Bipod vs shooting sticks

    I was thinking the same thing as you Cav! I use a Rhodesian from Andy's Leather. Quick entry (not as fast as a Ching) without the third stud. I do have some Whelan slings on some 22s and on my Mini 14. They work, but I just prefer my Rhodesian. Took this year's mule deer shooting off of my...

    ....not this again

    When I was in your shoes a couple of years ago, I went with a 30-06, so obviously you made and excellent choice! What it came down to, for me anyway, was magazine capacity and not very much real world increase in performance of a magnum vs standard cartridge. On paper, a 300 Win Mag vs 30-06/...

    2018 Nebraska Mule Deer

    Rifle season in Nebraska was a several weeks back, but I am just now getting around to writing my hunt. I had spent the first day and a half of the season hoofing it through the local sandhills and canyon country checking likely spots with no luck. I had only seen one group of does that came...
