    Helmets

    No ****. One thing I will never remove from my Kit, is my IFAK. That is looped on the Molle on the back of my saddle. If I fall or get shot. I have at least something to try to save myself. Or if I run into someone else who is in need of help I have it. I also recommend everyone carry an IFAK...

    Is there an end to the "wants"?

    Just get enough stuff so your primary "want" is to get into the woods. If you spend more time here then you do hunting, your wallet and your wife will not be happy.

    New to rifles, mounting a scope

    Expensive Scope bases and rings are worth the money normally. I learned this after spending $100 on a set of hardened steel CZ rings for my 455 American. By far the best rings I have ever used. Rock-solid and it is my most consistent and most accurate rifle I own. I am thoroughly convinced if...

    Need help with a Colorado Muzzloader setup

    Thanks! I am going to order one. The Blackhorn did ignite with the stock plug, but was a very there was a very noticeable 2 second delay from trigger pull to boom. I did love how much cleaner Blackhorn 209 is compared to Pyrodex pellets.

    Need help with a Colorado Muzzloader setup

    I actually forgot about those tbh. Don't they also convert the Rem 700 action to muzzleloaders? I remember looking at them before I got my CVA Wolf.

    New to rifles, mounting a scope

    Yeah I would not stress it too much, You just get it looking nice and level to your eye and get it zeroed. It will shoot MOD (Minute of Deer) at a 100yrds all day.

    New to rifles, mounting a scope

    **** at 100 yards and in, your scope could be on a 45* tilt looking like this X All that really matters at that range is you get the center point lined up where the bullet is shooting! Everything else only matters when you have to take Wind and Bullet drop into account.

    Need help with a Colorado Muzzloader setup

    I just know that a lot of guys here are mainly if not only archery hunters so I wanted to make sure people don't do something accidentally that can kill them. I don't want to hear a story about one of our guys making a pipebomb and blowing his hand off.

    Need help with a Colorado Muzzloader setup

    I just tried Blackhorn 209 in my CVA wolf. I did notice a long delay between the primer going off and the powder igniting. I am assuming that is from not having the breach plug designed for it?

    New to rifles, mounting a scope

    I can get them from my Local Gun shop. That is Fuquay Gun in North Carolina. I have also seen them at Cabela's from time to time. They are pretty popular. If you need it for this weekend. I would just eyeball it as best as you can, then I would bore sight it, and then use 5 rounds to walk it...

    New to rifles, mounting a scope

    Get this. https://www.amazon.com/Wheeler-Engineering-Professional-Construction-Gunsmithing/dp/B004TAB7ZO This is the best "Gunsmith" tool I have ever purchased. Basically, you strap down the rifle to a lead sled or some sort of bench rest. (The clamp style level goes on the barrel and allows...
