    How do you carry a tripod with a pack?

    What set up are you using to carry a tripod with your pack? I have an Eberlstock Gunslinger II pack and haven't found a good way to carry my tripod. I'm using a Manfrotto 055 tripod with a Sunwayfoto DHY-90 ball mount. Pictures would be most appreciated.

    First spotting scope - please school me.

    JEC vs. ROSS muzzle brakes!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I have a JEC on my Rem AAC .308 and a Ross on my AR. Both work great. If you want a moly brake that has been blued, I would go with JEC. The Ross moly brake with be raw metal. Ross has excelent customer service and tapered my brake before shipping, all I had to do was trim to time it. I'm sure...

    Gun Room / Safe Room

    Has anyone built a safe room or gun room? I'm researching building a new house and one thing I would like to have is a secure area to store my guns and a place to ride out the occasional extreme bad weather. The room would be built in a basement. I'm looking for suggestions and ideas from...

    Question of AR500 vs AR400

    I have Targets made out of 1/2" AR400 and they hold up fine. Mild steel works ok for handgun rounds.
