Been doing this for years. I buy factory overruns from Midway or Raven Rocks or direct from factory at Sierra. Sometimes they are a 1/3 of the cost of hunting bullets.

I had one in 2.5 - 8X on a M70 in .270 Winchester back in the 80's. I loved the fine tapered crosshairs on the scope. As a young hunter I was very hard on my rifle back then hunting a lot in the mountains and I can say that I don't ever remember that scope losing zero one time. Brings back some...

My wife has the same gun in 7mm-08 and absolutely loves it. Very accurate and fits a woman perfect.

I second Jefferry404's recommendation about Richards. Here is a link. https://richardsmicrofitgunstocks.com/

Buy your wife a rifle and take her hunting.

What is this 1944 Liberation of France ??

Otherwise known in Pennsylvania as the Amish AK or the Mennonite machine gun.

It will mimic my 270 winchester with 120 grain Barnes TTSX bullets. 48 grains of Ramshot Big Game with a 120 grain TTSX gets me ~ 3100 fps, in my Tikka its a 5 shot, 1 moa to 300 yards. outside of dangerous game there isn't anything this wont kill. Mild recoil, plentiful factory ammo, easily...

I must be the anomaly on here - LOL I've had great success using the Barnes TSX in my Weatherby 7mm-08. I reload so I'm using a 120 grain TSX going 3095 FPS. To date 30+ Pennsylvania whitetails (150 # avg) one shot kills and complete pass throughs. The furthest one ran was 50 yards. My wife...

I live in Northern Illinois outside of Chicago and I am seeing ads daily for SCI in Nashville. Nothing for DSC in Atlanta.

I can't remember which exact model. The experience soured me on Kuiu and they're customer service.

I have worn them in temps from the mid 40's Farenheit to low 80's and been very comfortable. They breathe well when you are walking. I wouldn't wear them sitting on stand all day when its 40 without a merino wool underlayer though.

I wore Kuiu on a safafri to SA several years back. 7 days in the bush nothing out of the normal just the usual thorns and brush in Limpopo. The pants got absoluteley trashed, ripped, torn, holes from thorns. When I got home I sent them back to Kuiu for a warranty claim, they denied my claim...

Wow - Midway and Cabela's has the Garmin at $549 right now !

I think the "problem" we have today is finding a bullet that doesn't work well for whatever you are hunting. I remeber back in the late 70's hunting with my dad, he shot a whitetail doe on the shoulder with his 30-06 knocked it down she got up and started running, shot again but this time she...
