I'm only allergic to gold and diamonds. Obviously not a hindrance

Wow, that doesn't suck...

That Camo Gum reminds me of guys who spend alot of money on scent-killing clothing to disguise their scent while hunting. The best and cheapest way to kill human odor I've found is to just cover yourself when you start hunting with a light spray of Prop Wash. You can buy it at any autoparts store...usually next to the WD-40, etc.
If you don't see it, ask and they can order it for you.

Actually, the de-resonator does work--but often only under the exact same conditions you "tune" with it. This is because most ammunition varies somewhat at different temperatures, and some barrels even vibrate differently.

This is also the problem with any other barrel-vibration tuner. In my experience it's better to work up a load and TEST it at various temperatures with a standard "resonating" barrel to see what happens.

I may be prejudiced, as well, by one experience with the de-resonator in the field--not by me, but a guy I ended up in camp with on an elk hunt in Colorado. He was what I call a "double-number" hunter, as in "I shot a 327 bull at 486 yards."

He had de-resonators on both his rifles, and would tell anyone within hearing distance how great they were. On that hunt he missed a cow at 150 yards.

I'd guess a rifle shooting .197" groups at 200 yards wouldn't have helped him much...

I've always just thrown a buck deer tarsal gland in with my Levi Garrett. Problem is most of early November I spend most of the day poking my eye on low hanging limbs and pizzing down my leg.

well i guess i will toss it in the trash of hunting junk.just was curious if they help very much.thanks for the info..lol

One should also remember his rackulator too. The one with the most gimmicks at the end wins.

"smooth as it's name".....

does that mean a smooth bush? because I love me a smooth bush.

Oh my....TFF.....I'm rollin' here.

battue, you made me laugh so hard it hurt! TFF!

Do ya'll have better accuracy with the blue tape under the sims or does it work better if you just wrap it in the tape several times?

I was thinking about wrapping the bbl completly, then placing the sims right on the end. That keeps stuff from scratching the bbl and also gives alittle protection when propping the gun against various trees....
