    Skull prep

    I use a "Buck Boiler" with some Dawn dish soap for all my euro/skulls. It doesn't make the bone brittle like standard over boiling can do.

    LVPO question for a DG rifle

    Trijicon Accupoint 1x6 with the green dot. I've got that LVPO on my Winchester 375 H&H and 458WM both and have taken two cape buffalo and numerous bears with this setup. I use Trijicon products daily and bet my life on them, they're bomb proof.
