re: 300 PRC, anyone have one?? What glass did you mount?
Posted by Ol boy on 4/29/24 at 9:36 pm
Not a 300prc but his slower and less aerodynamic brother the 300wm.
I have a nightforce shv 5-20-56 my next scope will probably be a trijicon ten mile. If you’re only planning on shooting to 400 then 14-16 power on the top end is plenty. ...

I had the base station forget which brand but it was about 1/4-1/2 ac. It kept my 7yr old choc lab for a year or two then one day he broke out and from then on it wouldn’t keep him. I watched him walk through it taking the shock and then just walk off down my driveway. One hour later he would act li...

Not many guns that I have owned tbat I can say I hated and sold.
Beretta 92fs and rem 1187 are two that I hated and sold and do not regret one bit.
I paid ~500$ in 1994 for the 92fs I can’t imagine how much I would hate paying 14k for one. ...

re: Concealed Carry Insurance ?
Posted by Ol boy on 3/12/24 at 8:17 pm
No I do not.
I have an attorney saved on my phone who will defend me if I call him.
I pay enough for insurance as it is and the likelihood of using my gun is very slim so I have chosen to roll the dice. I have concealed carried well over 10-15yr now and not needed either so I think I’m winning. ...

Because there are hardly any turkeys left.
