I can't believe you would acutely shot your foot :lol: Yeah, seems pretty dumb, but i suspect it happens a lot more than one thinks and people are scared to admit to it for fear of looking foolish. Kinda like dry-firing - I can honestly say in 20 years I have never dry-fired either a vertical or ho...

Awesome set up. Why the 19" zombies and not 18"? Interesting scope, what's the price range? And final question, "HOW ARE YOU GONNA WAIT TILL JUNE TO SHOOT THAT BOW???!!!" :mrgreen: Not gonna wait until June. For the time being it is wearing a Twilight DLX that I removed from my ...

Looking good Joe! Cool reticle. Keep us in the loop on how it works! http://www.vortexoptics.com/uploads/ret_xbr_s_25-10x44_xbr-1_moa-t.jpg Thanks for your help Don, You'll be able to see it first hand in July at Boofest. Really looking forward to that scope - it looks awesome on paper. Also lookin...

Nicely Done!!

Put the string on and set brace height to 3/4 inch off of the REDS. A 3/4" is a good brace height, but it should be measured from where the riser meets the rail back to the string. That should leave 1/4" (about 2 string widths) between the string and the REDS. Your going to love your 405,...

So I picked up my bare bones Mega 405 on Sunday. Took it completely apart, cleaned every fastener and then applied Loc-tite Blue and reassembled. Put the string on and set brace height to 3/4 inch off of the REDS. Cocked the bow and left it for 24 hours. After uncocking the next day the brace height...

I see a lot of Canadians but the majority seem embarrassed by the name of their city because the just add (somewhere in Ontario, northeastern Ont, southern Ont, or make up a fake city name). I used to live in Ontario (Ottawa and Kingston) and now live in Chicoutimi Quebec....just like it says in my...

Depends on your aim, the caliber of gun you are using and how much ammo you have.

Love the Zwarovksi's

This is at my hunt camp about a month ago: http://i1363.photobucket.com/albums/r719/Joe_Miedema/Photo746_zpsd8b0ca32.jpg For context the platform is 8 feet wide and is 12 feet in the air.

It's a 35 Whelen, shooting 225 grain Accubonds at 2750 fps. It is slated to be my new moose gun and if I can convince my wife it will be used for Siberian Brown Bear this fall - long odds on this right now.

Very Nice. How well does it work with the cocking aid?

March 1st my bare bones 405 is supposed to be in. So to console myself with the delay I picked up something to ease my pain: Nosler M48 Legacy in 35 Whelen: - 3-10x by 42 Zwarovski Z3 - Match Grade PAC-NOR Hand Lapped Stainless Barrel - Free floated, glass pillar bedded - Cerakote - 3lb Custom Rifle...

I'm pretty good at hunting these guys
