My best hunting tip
Always take a spare scope. Also, after you sight in your rifle for say 200 yards, take a target (preferably a 1" grid sighting target) and shoot groups at 25 yds, 50 yds and 100 yards on the same target. Take a picture of it with your phone. If your scope gets knocked out of whack, you have a reference for your scope settings for resighting. That way you don't have to measure off 100 or 200 yards.

Bass & fly fishing
