Re: vortex warranty dissapointed me/corrected
Did you get an external power adjustment ring with your new glass? Just curious if they send those with each new scope.

2013 Idaho Elk Hunt
Had a great elk hunt this year in Idaho. My hunting partner scored first at 8:30 opening morning. By the time I made it to where he had dropped his animal he had it half way worked up. It was a very nice low 300 class bull. http://i329.photobucket.com/albums/l388/Rashgar1/20131101_145040.jpg Determi...

DPMS AR-10 Upper Question
I have an Oportunity to pick up an Unfired DPMS AR-10 Upper in 7.62x51 with a 1 in 10 twist 18" barrel. I have no experience with AR and was curious if anyone knows the accuracy of these barrels or any known problems.
Thanks
Thanks

First Coyote hunt.
Went out with a friend Saturday 10-16-10 just south of Boise ID. It was my first time Coyote hunting. He was running the call and had designated me as the shooter. First stand was a bust. Gravel pit was in operation that morning breaking rocks and the sound was echoing up the draw very loudly. So we...

Re: Whats your Work Up Method
I have that exact rifle, the Savage 12 VLP. I got mine for $849. Shoots very well. http://i329.photobucket.com/albums/l388/Rashgar1/Rifle%20set/Rifle006.jpg My Budget was tight and I purchased a KonusPro M30 8.5x32x52 scope, Mil dot, with 1/4 MOA target turrets. I used Leupold base and 30mm rings. T...
