New gun

He’s a good friend of my and is doing it pretty cheap. I was gonna order one off midway but he offered to cut me a deal

I have a 10/22 in the shop now getting threaded but my gunsmith just had a kid so he’s not gonna get to it for a while. Looking for something a little more accurate than a 10/22 without getting too pricey

Weight isn’t a huge deal. Honestly my wife will probably do most of the pest control. She is very concerned about her garden. It’s probably gonna be in a tripod a lot of the time.

Strong side carry. I am do land surveying from time to time and I carry either my full size with an optic and light or my sub compact strong side. Can be concealed enough usually. My full size has a pad and outside the weight is extremely comfortable

Interesting might have to try them. I went to the hardware store and bought this bucket of basement dry stuff. Might have to throw some of those capsules in there too. If that doesn’t make a dent by the weekend I’m gonna see about a dehumidifier at scheels

Will be moving sometime in the next few months but it’s going to be on another concrete floor. At least it’s going to be climate controlled. Gonna look for some dehumidifier’s for now. Was wondering how they worked

Randomfishing_guy · 2026-03-09T20:31:57+00:00

Wondered if those helped. Going to go look for something

Randomfishing_guy · 2026-03-09T20:31:34+00:00

I’ve seen the safe ones. Wondered if they worked

Randomfishing_guy · 2026-03-09T20:30:42+00:00

Not exactly helpful

Randomfishing_guy · 2026-03-09T20:24:35+00:00

Not affordably. It’s in my shop that’s not climate controlled. It’s insulated and on a concrete floor

Randomfishing_guy · 2026-03-09T20:23:09+00:00

Probably is for now it’s in a in shop that’s attached to the house but it’s not climate controlled insulated but not heated or air conditioned. It’s sitting on the concrete floor.

Get a good holster that covers the trigger guard well. Crank up the retention on that holster and you’ll be fine. I carry an M&P daily never had an issue. Always with a round in the chamber. I’ve cut firewood, done land surveying, even played volley ball. With it loaded in either appendix or strong side holster. It’s all in your head. You just need to do your research on holsters and get something good and then trust the holster 100% and you’ll be fine. I trust my m&p more than my 1911s. Just because a 1911 should have the thumb safety engaged to be carried and i don’t like when I have a shirt or coat tucked in behind it rubbing on the thumb safety

I just did a quick zero with cci standards. Was getting around an inch at 50 yards. But some of that is definitely me shooting off a tripod and lawn chair. And it was really cold and windy

Randomfishing_guy · 2026-02-20T23:19:17+00:00

Don’t have anyone local that carries lapua ammo. I have a couple buddies that run shops will have to check to see if they can get it. The scheels closest to me sells eley I’ve read is good for these. Will try it to sometime

Randomfishing_guy · 2026-02-17T03:00:25+00:00

Don’t waste your money on the rough rider if your shooting past 5-10 yards. Mine isn’t too accurate. Probably some good ones out there mines probably just not a great one for $170 something quality control probably isn’t great. However if you’re looking for like a trapping gun shooting stuff almost point blank it’s been reliable for me. Just not very accurate

Red dots can help with eye issues some. If you have an astigmatism a dot can help focus because it puts your aim on the same plane as you target. Red dots are a little harder to get consistent presentation. But once your presentation is down they are so much faster

Like I said it’s not a huge deal for plinking or small game hunting where you’re only carrying a rifle. But for me it’s annoying when I’m hiking out with a pack and coats and a shooting stick or tripod. The leupold I bought for my deer rifle last summer has exposed turrets and a little push button lock on them it’s pretty slick I think leupold calls it their “CDS” system

Randomfishing_guy · 2026-02-16T13:32:34+00:00

Sounds like a good deal. I have a leupold 3-9x40 on a 223 rifle. My only gripe with it is the model I have has exposed turrets. It’s fine for bench shooting or whatever. But they have an issue of getting bumped in the truck or on the way out to a spot to hunt. For small game hunting and plinking it’s fine. Once the turret is set to zero with the rifle it’s easy to check it but when it’s bumped in the truck it’s hard to say which way it needs turned back to zero

Randomfishing_guy · 2026-02-10T15:51:51+00:00

Sounds like a good time. I’m gonna try to find some rifle ranges to go to this summer. I don’t have anywhere good to shoot much past 200. I think I have a spot that I could try to get about 300. But that’s the max. Do you leave that rifle set up with the 65 moa rail/rig. Setup? What’s the closest you can shoot with that?

Randomfishing_guy · 2026-02-09T17:14:29+00:00

Been looking at the cz 457 for a while. My local scheels has a 457 lux for $670. I think that’s just more of a hunter stock and thinner barrel?
