Re: Looking to update my scope

Other than midday hunting / target shooting I'm finding that either the glass is subpar or the crosshairs are too thin (Ziess XB75, Leupold XBones both excellent glass, hair thin crosshairs.) for actual low light use. :roll: I like a Leupold VX-1 in either Turkey-Plex or Heavy Duplex.

Re: Stripped screw on my Trigger tech

Next time heat the screw heads lightly with a torch style lighter before trying to loosen them. Heat breaks the locktite bond.

Re: My meat grinder Sucks!

Get an LEM Big Bite grinder and don't look back. :twisted:
