Ammo bands that attached to the rifle stock and on a hunters forearm, I have hunters with a box of shells hanging on them. Bipods,,, while they certainly help and have their place in shooting a person almost always ends up going through some alders or thick brush in Alaska,, I have about 6 or 7 that were taken off in field and "gifted to me". Neopreme bogbuster hipboots by Cabela's,, every camp has a big pile that was left behind!
More later.
I tend to use more than enough gun

Buying one center-fire rifle and using it for everything.

Fixed power 6X rifle scopes.  Apparently me and a few others believe a good 6x scope is still just the ticket on a rifle that actually goes hunting!!!!

Not in a Contender. One of the most popular barrels for T/C shooters. Shockingly high velocities with 180's and crazy accurate.

Yep. They are just down the road from me. A friend of mine has become a dealer. They have even brought back some of their older bows that were really popular at very low prices- under $150 for some of them.

Yeah, that's a shame. Putting most of their eggs in the WSM basket didn't do them any favours.  You have to wonder why they produced fewer std chamberings. I guess they figured that WSMs would be the cartridges of the future...and were willing to push.

Just like the automotive industry - not what the customer wants, but what we want to sell him.

I think a lot of what is on the Fire these days will die off. There has got to be a lot if "nil concern aspects" that makes something endure.
I guess that is why some things are considered boring here. They simply work without fuss and drama.
Our kids will be using .30/06's for that reason.
When truth is ignored, it does not change an untruth from remaining a lie.
