Hey, everyone! I have a question. My friends moved for North Richland Hills and want to get the license. They are considering these LTC classes. Looks convenient and price is right. Just wondering if the instruction is solid. Any reviews?
-
Unlucky with the BRNO. CZ will be solid. One for one swap is straightforward but the wait is ridiculous. Shotgun reclassification would be an absolute mess.

If you're near Solway you'll need proper foreshore loads. Bismuth is another option softer on barrels but costs more . TSS is amazing but you'll go broke. For steel get the Ballistic Products loading manuals they have data for everything.

Looking for some heavy-duty, weatherproof outerwear and came across Outback Trading Company. They make waxed canvas and oilskin coats and vests. Has anyone tried their gear for stalking or rough shooting in wet/cold conditions?
-
I don’t know that source, but JoyRaining is legit for the price. Güde makes great stuff if you want something nicer.
-
Thanks for your feedback! Ok, I`ll consider it.

I haven't used the Magic Eagle. For reliability in cold weather, stick with known brands like Browning or Moultrie. They're worth the extra cost.

Has anyone used Beretta clothing for hunting? I'm considering their jackets and field gear and would like to know how it holds up in wet or cold conditions.
-
that's awesome when a 'trash fire' project just runs perfectly. A heavy .22-250 like that would be a laser beam.
-
Try Musto, Browning, or Beretta for extended sizes. Also check UK specialists like John Norris or USK. If still no luck, consider a custom vest from Alderney Shooting Gear. Good luck finding the right fit!

Evening all. I'm in the market for a new stalking rifle in 6.5 Creedmoor and have been looking at this 6.5 Creedmoor selection. I'm considering a Tikka T3x or perhaps a Bergara but would appreciate some real-world experience. Has anyone used either of these for deer? How do you find the accuracy and reliability?

For boar, they have an incredible sense of smell, so playing the wind is more important than any bait. Set up downwind from their trails or feeding areas. Using a bait like corn can work to bring them into a specific area, but your scent control and staying silent are what will really seal the deal.

The shrinkflation and quality drop in some big brands is really noticeable lately. Those supermarket own-brands have definitely stepped up their game and are often a better deal these days.

With the shorter days coming, I've been sorting out my high-vis gear for those early morning and late evening walks to the hide. I found some solid reflective vests and arm bands that are lightweight and do the job without getting in the way. It's made a big difference for safety on dark country lanes - https://rununited.com/accessories/reflective-gear/. Aaaand I also picked up some Fila trail shoes there. They've been great for long days in the field - comfortable with good grip. Definitely worth a look https://rununited.com/fila/! Has anyone else found any good high-vis or all-day

A Purdey Damascus 16 bore is a serious collector's piece. Its value depends entirely on condition, proof marks, and engraving. You absolutely need a certified appraiser who specializes in high-end English shotguns. Don't even guess at a price without one - it could be worth anywhere from thousands to tens of thousands.
