    Arrowhead Brux prefit 45 cal for Encore.

    You'll be extremely happy. The Encore .45 Brux I own shot three touching the first group and still will repeatedly at 100, with 2-300 routinely under MOA just off bags. I have many very nice weapons / rifles with excellent hunting scopes (none over 12X power) and the ASG Brux Encore combo I...

    Scope deals i will update as i find them

    I've had the S2 Bluesky binos for years now along with a s2 big sky scope I have always liked. The binos are quite clear and crisp, lighter and more compact than others I have so I still use them often.

    Knight UL Scopes

    A simple 3x9x40 scope won't look awkward on a Knight UL set up. It is a pretty standard stock/barrel option. I use a similar but higher quality recommended 2x10x44 on mine and it looks great size wise. Get what you like they'll all look nice on that gun.

    What company makes the best snack stick recipes?

    22 looks nice, and bigger should be better but "sticky meat" when grinding can be a problem no matter the size. Should be partially frozen and ice cold even going into second grind and your meat will move though much more efficiently. Your new Waltons stuffer will be a blessing for that part...

    What company makes the best snack stick recipes?

    I follow Waltons Inc recipes and their Willies snack stick seasoning has been a big hit. Usually a mix of deer and pork butt, sometimes with added high temp cheese.

    Range finder....

    I got the Leica 2400 a year or so ago and passed on the ballistic model for the basic version. I don't need all that range extent for me but clarity low light capability, and function are superb.

    Given a Bowtec Assassin

    You have a decent bow that will get you back into the joy of shooting. The shop should be configuring the bow to fit you while you are present. They can measure and adjust your proper draw length, determine comfortable draw weight, cut correct arrows to size and add a new peep properly...

    Arrowhead nsr

    In my Brux Encore they fit about the same as yours with small going down fairly easy. They both shot great, the 300 grain larger size were all touching and covered a dime at 100 yards

    Muzzleloader Blow Up

    Not new to muzzleloaders been shooting them 20 years I guess. I thought I was good, then bulged my very new smokeless brux barrel. After shooting maybe 12 rounds of very tight three shot groups, It appeared I missed the target altogether. I was confused and walked down range to look and saw...

    VA SB 886

    The "I've hunted here for years" mentality and the manner with which they carry on regardless of whom they encroach on is frustrating, and difficult to deal with sanely. They usually come in numbers physically, not mentally.

    Scope used

    Met Carlos Hathcock here in eastern VA in 95. He often filled a chair in a local sporting goods store hanging out and shooting the breeze. I was young, he helped me choose a compound bow back then. Didn't really know who he was the first few times, they simply called him Gunnie.
