This is from my Berger manual. Mine is dated 2012, so not sure if there's more recent data or not.

Tried to send you a PM, but got an error message that you cannot receive messages. Maybe your inbox is full?

One is the HDX and the other one is prior to the HDX designation, (probably 10 years old). Both have been great.

Another vote for QAD. I've used them for years without issues. I personally like having the top bar above the arrow rest that contains the arrow. Some other drop away rests don't seem to have that. I've found it useful when trying to position for a shot around trees and brush when you've already nocked an arrow. Don't want the arrow getting pulled off the rest by a tree limb.

Has anybody used the Gunwerks branded brass? From what I've read on the internet it seems that ADG makes it for Gunwerks, but was just wondering if anyone has had some first hand experience with it. Looking at some for 300 Win Mag. Thanks

Bruno's website shows they have 1 pounders of Varget.

I bought a couple from amazon last week. The cheapest was Silver color for $26 each. Not sure why, but every color is priced differently on Amazon.

Anyone have suggestions on new 5 gallon gas cans? I need to replace some old gas cans (plastic has gotten brittle and about to crack), but the new gas cans I'm seeing all have some sort of cumbersome safety nozzle on them. The last 5 gal can I bought was a joke. You have to hold down a lever to make the gas flow while holding the can up, and has a vent in the nozzle that doesn't work very well so the flow was a trickle at best. It took about 10 minutes to empty a 5 gallon can. It seems like buying a gas can ought to be a simple thing, but trying to find some without the safety nozzle is proving difficult. Does anybody still make a gas can with a regular nozzle?

Thank you all for the input. Got a couple of the vp racing cans ordered.

I have a Traeger 22 that gets used on a regular basis and I'm quite happy with. Haven't used the other brands mentioned so can't comment there. I recently had to replace the hot rod ignitor on mine and while looking at replacement parts I noticed that some parts (auger motor, hot rod, air fan, etc.) were interchangeable with Traeger and some Pit Boss models. I'm sure there's exceptions out there, but it surprised me that the components are interchangeable. Makes me wonder if there's much difference between brands.

I changed mine from the 12 volt marine battery to running two 6 volt golf cart batteries connected in series. My last set of T-105 golf cart batteries went 4.5 years before needing replaced, much better lifespan than the marine batteries. I also use a small Harbor Freight solar charger when the trailer isn't in use to help keep the voltage up.

Took this picture of them last Saturday just a mile down the road from the refuse station. Grazing right along the side of the road with no care whatsoever of vehicles or people. Right after I snapped the picture another vehicle went zipping by and they didn't even flinch.

I guess I should have specified, but yes, it's just the factory head that isn't that great for glassing. The adjustments for tilt and pan are rather crude. The tripod itself is great for glassing... I've just upgraded to carbon fiber to save a little weight.

Charay, I sent you a PM. Thanks

Not a 357 Mag, but I used to hunt them with a 38 Spl. I was usually able to get within 30 yards of the herd, and at that range it was plenty to put one down. My favorite bullet was the Sierra 140 gr HP, but factory 125's and 130's did fine too at those short ranges. If you choose a holster for your belt make sure that it sits below the lumbar belt on your pack (if your pack has one). They're lots of fun with a revolver. Here's one from several years ago

Does this take the shell holder plates that are caliber specific, or is it the newer "one size fits all" style shell holder?

The boot laces on my Danner Pronghorns finally gave out after 7 years and a lot of miles. The Danner brand replacement laces I purchased are pretty wimpy feeling and small in diameter compared to what originally came with them. Does anyone have any suggestions for good replacement laces? Thanks
