All my scopes are either Leupold or Vortex and all are proven. I'm certainly open to a Swaro, but it would definitely have to be a demo at half price.

I definitely know your frustration. I don't know of any watch that hasn't had issues with the date being accurate. That's why all my watches have no date windows, just the watch. I bought a Longines back in 1983 and still have it. Money well spent and no date window.

Welcome to AH!

Welcome to the site Jake!

Oh man....do I love this!

I like and hunt with JKO Outfitters every time I go to Africa. Jacques Spamer is a sponsor of this site and though his website is generalized, he offers great packages and does a lot of bespoke hunts.

That was my brother's solution as well, before he passed away. He had two quads set up. One was a back up. I couldn't believe the price of his injections! He just timed his hunts between refills.

I'd leave well enough alone. You already have what you need for DG, unless the "want" takes over the decision making. The highest power I ever used in my DG hunting was 3x. But that's me and my eyes. As long as I can focus the scope for my eyes, I'm good.

Being a lefty as well, if you're considering an OTC rifle, Tikka and the Browning X-bolt are the best thing going in terms of price (I have the X-bolt in 300 WM for my own mountain backcountry kit,). Tikka would be 7Rem Mag or 28 Nosler. If you're building, I recommend a Defiance action. They...

My daughter is in Mexico City......she's safe for now, but.......

I believe re-loading will remain with the new and upcoming generation of shooters and hunters. Young hunters just starting out just want to shoot. They have enough money to buy shells/ammo as needed, but many can't afford the prices for setting up their own stations. There are some...

I have an old Remington 870 and a Browning BPS. Both 12 ga. and both nothing but utility. I've taken more deer with my 870 than I did small game and birds.
