    What date in Feb are you looking at. There will be 2 of us from Lexington.

    Bushnell 1 Mile ARC LRF binocular availability

    I guess I am settling for less performance according to these posts, but a sporting goods chain had the 1600's on clearance (and may still be) and I picked up the 12X version for $565! I couldn't justify the price difference just comparing them against the 1 mile in the store. I may regret it...

    I will just be returning from Mexico. I do know that there was at least one person at the last meet who didn't pay.

    I have never been to Georgetown, but it is the home of STI international. They make the majority of race pistols used today, or they at least provide frames and parts to pistolsmiths. With that many gunsmiths in the town, there should be someone who could hook you up for rifle. Have a look at...

    I picked up a dozen cans of official Steel Challenge white paint. Also known as $.96 Wally World White. See you all in the morning.

    It looks like I will indeed be making my first appearance this month. I don't have any steel targets (yet). Don't have a way to haul a mower from Lexington. I do have a pop-up shelter, bad back, good attitude, and can get a case of white spray-paint if needed. I want to contribute, I just need...

    Rifle Scopes Light weight low light tactical scope options

    Thanks for the info on the Kenton Industries turrets. I will check them out. I also forgot my Meopta K-dot which is my 3-gun competition scope. I love it as well, I just didn't think it was in the power range for this discussion (1-4).

    Rifle Scopes Light weight low light tactical scope options

    Good set of choices there. I am fairly new to what this forum considers high end scopes. I have recently bought two NF NXS with MOAR reticle (different powers for different rifles. The brightest scope I own is a Meopta Meostar 4-16 Mildot. I think if Meopta would get serious about reticle...

    Rem700 5R?

    I have that exact rifle. It was my first .300 WM and I was "making fire formed brass" by shooting the lowest cost Winchester soft point 150 grain. I was able to shoot 5 shot ragged hole groups at 100 yards. I have not had a chance to stretch it further. A friend of mine is a gunsmith for an...

    Does a Conceal Carry Permit count as a background check since we are fingerprinted and our background is checked in order to get the permit? I thought it may save time and money if you allow it.
