    Leupold stands out again !

    I have shot Leupold almost exclusively for the last 40 years, only used customer service twice and both times they treated me way more than fairly. And while I'm on the subject Ruger has treated me the exact same way on two warranty issues over about 40 guns.

    Replacing this Old Hat

    Holy cow, if it really does all of this I think I need one too...... "Under the wide arc of African sky where heat shimmers and distant koppies rise, this wool hat stands as a quiet emblem of deliberate presence. The wool felt, dense, finely brushed, and dyed in warm, earthy tones, carries a...
