    Fatigue caused by prolonged staying in prone position

    Try taking Advil before/during going out to the field. I used to get super stiff/sore neck when balancing my rifle on the binoculars I'd hang off my neck when bear hunting. Maybe the weiner way to deal with the pain but it's effective.

    What's up with 88 Octane gas and why aren't we all using it?

    Don't know. It's not an overstock scenario. THey have it at that price all the time. Figured one of the hide's famous petrochemical engineers would have some insight.

    What's up with 88 Octane gas and why aren't we all using it?

    In SW Pennsylvania at convenience chain called Sheetz is selling 88 Octance gas for like .30 cents cheaper than 87. What's up with 88? Is it no good for engines or what?

    Price Check in the Gas and Diesel Aisle...

    Wednesday morning when I went past the diesel station, price was $5.19. I kid you not when I went by it at 4:30, it was $5.39. .20 cents in 8 hours. Yesterday, I stopped at another station which I had seen the day before at $5.25. So I wasn't paying attention but when I was sticking the...

    There's a lot of 6.5CM hate all of a sudden. WTF happened?

    I'm so uncool I can't even spell PRS. We always hear about the FALLACY of believing that if equipment is selected by the military it MUST BE the best equipment you can get. Could be why they went with the 6.5cm. oh, did I mention I shoot a 260?

    I'd pm you Frank but that feature doesn't seem to work anymore. "This is not a policy disagreement, this was a result of actions, your actions, that lead us, or me, to add you to discourage group vs straight up banning the account. It’s when no real rules were broken, but a member decides to...

    I can barely navigate this site - pages loading VERY slowly if at all

    The description of this particular subforum reads as such "Sniper's Hide site information, latest updates, forum errors, technical reporting." Notice that bit about "forum errors?" I have a forum error so I posted it here and instead of getting some help, I get a lot of bitching at me. How...

    I tried cleaning the cache and deleting cookies. Problems are not much better. For instance, it took me 3 or 4 attempts at opening the alerts icon to even see these messages you posted. And sometimes, if I click a link, any link, I'll get taken back to the SH homepage. While I hate doing...

    I can barely navigate this site - pages loading VERY slowly if at all

    I don't know if this has been discussed in the past but I can barely navigate the site. Whenever I click on almost any link, be it a forum name or a thread, it takes 2 to 3 minutes to load the page. I know the page is trying to load because the little thingey in left corner is moving. And...

    Any model trainers here? The Model Train Thread.

    If you need something to set up a layout on, get a ping pong table and make some mods to it. DO NOT buy a new ping pong table because they're expensive. Instead, look on craigslist to see who might be selling one that's in good condition.

    I'm trying to PM you on the 260 brass but for some reason I can't get your profile to open. So consider this interest in the 260. I'll keep trying.

    We've updated the site!

    I haven't read every post in this thread so if what I'm about to say has been said already, please excuse me. So, I see that now we have to be "supporting members" in order to post in the PX. For ultra-long timers such as myself this is a sad day. I've actually been on this site for much...

    SuperHogster & Recoil

    So I note that the SuperHogster is rated at only 308 recoil level. Does this cause any of you concern that it may be a little fragile? From what I've seen, most shooters are mounting them on 5.56s, 7.62x39s or blackouts. Not a lot of recoil on any of those. I'm considering mounting on a...
