    I would like to see the plans or budget for that part of the wall that is costing $5.x billion. Except for classified projects, and the wall, which is common knowledge, line items are explained in the humongous budget document. I wonder if that money is just to serve as Trump's slush fund...

    Low Light Front Bead...White or FO?

    Psychologically, warm colors come to the fore, and cool colors recede. Not sure how that plays out in fiber optic sights. Red rear sight puts the colors in a natural order. Red front sight gets attention as it should.

    possible new caliber for plains game

    Yeah, take 'em both. If you don't like results from the 450, the 7mm RemMag will be reliable. If you don't hand load, i would take Hornady Precision Hunter ammo. My No. 1 loves that round.

    375 H&H a dud?
