    Toledo Bend Bass trip

    I use to live in Sheveport La and my friend brought me to Toledo Bend.At 1st glance I thought it was a swamp beacuse up here we dont have trees in our lakes.I caught sooo many bass it wasn't real.I learned how to run trot lines and got some nice catfish.Back then you could run yo yo's and we...

    Thoughts on

    Nikon Monarch I was just checking them out.Was looking at the Vortex 4x16x50 but read they are not so good in low light.I have a couple of Leupolds 3x9s and love them.But I want something with a turrent.And Leupolds more than I want to spend.

    Going rate

    Acra glass is actually better.The other stuff will break done in 3 to 5 yrs.That is unless its painted over.You can call the guys at Devcon I believed a guy I know talked to a enginer about it.They said they could make it better but in the long run would end up selling less.

    scope rail bedding front or rear of the base?

    That Devcon fiberglass will degrade with time.I have a friend who makes knifes and uses it for the handles.I think he said he gets 2 or 3 yrs before it breaks down.He now uses that gel type sold at Brownells and dont have any problems.

    Brownings Hells Canyon

    Burris Fast Fire

    Can this scope take the pounding of a turkey gun? Heck I was looking at the Aim points and Eco Techs and I relly dont want to spent that much if I dont have to. So I was wondering about the fast fire?

    300 Win mag which is the better round? I hear wat the reps are saying but I want too hear from the guys who hunt with them and not sell them.
