These Honeybadger Knives. Fits in my bino harness no worries. Opens easy as with one hand yet had a nice solid hinge and lock. We did 6 deer last night including removing the hocks without touching...

Not a huge soup fan. Prefer something a little more solid. Stew is about as far as I usually go towards soup. Must be from those days as a kid eating that horrible alphabet soup. Yuk. . . .

Absolutely. My Dad sold his TOZ at a garage sale, I would have loved to have that just to remember his stories everytime I used it. I'm only attracted to older rifles, I guess I like knowing they...

Same comments as others, very happy. Don't expect too much and it won't under deliver for the price & quality. Just use as intended as a spotter for a heat signal image & let the binos do the rest....

It gladdens the heart when I see an old hand such as Ron Spomer still fizzing at the bung and getting excited about a new rifle purchase. The Parkwest CD10 falling block in 7x57 is an absolute...

Hi just a correction, it was a 505 Gibbs that I brought at the Naki shoot. 600 gr behind 134 gr of powder , and that is the starting load. Now here is the very fun fact : I had been told that rifle...
