I use 50 pound braid fishing line tied to my head with a 3/0 fishing hook on the bottom end to keep my head from lifting.

Remote range is awesome with all icotec models for sure. I have issues with the Foxpro Wildfire remotes distance. Spotty past? 30 yards

I don't use one on my .260 AR10 because the brass is so hot it melts the nylon mesh. I use Caldwell bag type and the goat on my AR15's.

Like others, I got my first can once I started running thermals. After a year I recently got my paperwork in on a 2nd one, for my wife/son to use on the 2nd thermal gun. I swap it to my day gun and back as needed. My son recently shot his first coyot

The father in law bought a couple boxes just to try. It shot but I told him he could have bought a couple hundred bullets for what he paid for it. Didn't sound any less than brass.

Poly cased ammo has been in development for a long time. Looks like maybe it has finally become a workable thing. Wonder if that ammo will be less expensive than brass cased ammo? Seems like it should be.

Any know what size Buttler Creek scope cap size will fit the Thermion 2 XP50 eye bell?

I would be interested in whether that works on your scope Mike. As I mentioned, it works well for my hunting buddy with his Thermion XP50. He doesn't have an editing program and so it also keeps me from having to edit out a bunch of useless footage

I didn't use one until AZ made night hunting legal. I got my first one to try and keep disturbances to a minimum, including law enforcement contacts at night. Now I have 3 of them and when I hunt states where they are not legal it feels odd. The b

Have you looked at Huntstand as a replacement? It doesn't have the prairie dog layer you want, but the app is free and I pay $30/year for property information for the entire lower 48 (never looked into AK/HI so not sure about those). It has a bunch

I have a C&H in my gun now, also a new Kickeez pad. My best friend is a registered NSSA skeet shooter and also an instructor. He's been coaching me. Of course I'm a hard learner and have to be told more than once. My problem is I know what to do,

International skeet is shot wit 24gram loads, which is almost exactly 7/8 oz. Birds are harder and faster and these loads loads work well. For American Skeet I'm I'm shooting 11/16 oz of 9s in my 12ga and for SC I shoot 7/8 oz of 8s. Works for me.

I don't have a large frame AR, all are smalls. I use the ones that velcro around the hand guard with zero issues, not sure if they carry over to large. Earlier this year, I stumbled across a brass catcher on the WWW for bolt guns that used a magnet

Thanks for that. Sounds like something I'll want to try. All I've got is some Sweets and #9, both of which did OK. But I have to think that after all these years they may be a bit weak from age.
