      It's almost time for night Hog hunting in Alabama. What's your thermal choice?

      With so many new ones out there what's your pick and why? Please speak from hands-on experience, not something you read.

      Should your scope cost more than your rifle?

      OK, now that the thread has morphed into a high end scope review, has anybody tried the Leica PRS 5-30x56? Or the Zeiss LRP S5 5-25x56? Inquiring minds want to know. :D

      Should your scope cost more than your rifle?

      Once you get used to good glass you'll never turn back. Same for binoculars. It's a real curse!

      Should your scope cost more than your rifle?

      Don't forget about the Japanese. Some of their stuff is pretty good. But I agree, generally Germany or Austria make the best. JMO. So many folks get all wrapped up in the rifle and buy glass with whatever money they have left. I believe this is flawed logic. For the most part, rifles these days...

      Whatever happened to the Bolt Action .223 Remington?

      Love those Sakos!

      L461 Varmint, looks like. Great rifle.

      Meet the 7.62 X 51

      Now just add an SR25 and you'll shoot all the time!

      Whatever happened to the Bolt Action .223 Remington?

      Pretty sure that's the pill in the MK262, which is one of the most consistently accurate 5.56 rounds I have ever had the pleasure of shooting. Even compared to my handloads. The danged things really go into the same hole.

      Whatever happened to the Bolt Action .223 Remington?

      I have whacked literally thousands of Prairie Dogs out to about 525 yards with my bolt action .223. It's hard to shoot anything else between 200 and 500... Not sure where the mojo went in the marketplace. It's a great rig for sure.

      Question about my rifle. 308.

      The pressure increase comes when the same amount of propellant used in lighter brass is used in heavier brass. As a safety conscious reloader I always weigh my brass. Sometimes I even weigh loaded rounds just to make sure I didn't make a booboo.

      Question about my rifle. 308.

      Not always!

      Question about my rifle. 308.

      Sometimes military brass is heavier (thicker) than civilian brass which reduces the available volume for propellent inside and can create higher pressures in certain chambers. It sounds like those rounds had higher pressure, which could be caused by several variables. Bottom line: If the cases...

      What irons for a Glock 34?

      Check out Dawson Precision. I have them on my 34 and love them. Fiber optic front, wide notch black rear. Great for competition.

      Bonded Bullets for Hunting

      Just make the jump to Barnes. No bonding needed. It's 100% copper alloy in the TSX, add a plastic tip in the TTSX. Great penetration, perfect mushroom to twice caliber. They are one of my favorite hunting bullets. ABs are good, but they tend to separate in my experience. SGK flies great, but...

      0.25 MOA Mindset.

      I believe 1/4 MOA is an unrealistic expectation for the vast majority of shooters, regardless of the rig and ammo used. In my experience, to achieve that pinnacle of accuracy everything has to be near perfect, including technique, which is the last thing most shooters realize. JMO.

      Nosler partition

      The Partition is a great hunting bullet. Not the most accurate for precision shooting, but the terminal ballistics are excellent. You won't be disappointed if you use it for whitetails. I have used them from .224 up to .358 across the spectrum. Always satisfied. However... my favorite hunting...
