Mudhen - Check the variety stores, especially after Halloween, can find them close out and buy enough for $1 to last for years. Look for the bags of flat black ones, unless you like the neon colors,  . Another source are the specialty stores for cards, party favors, etc. I've pretty much gone to using muzzle cover all the time. Even if thinking not going to be in the brush, rose briar junk, seems like I always end up there for one reason or another. Have found too much debri in barrel from the brush junk, especially when tall and overhead. Conditioned me to use the balloon trick all the time!!! Haven't found it to affect accuracy yet, hunting shots, or shots off the bench.

Let 'er go Jeffy, let 'er go.
Why pack all that messy meat out of the bush when we can just go to the grocery store where meat is made? Hell,if they sold antlers I would save so much money I could afford to go Dolphin fishing. Maybe even a baby seal safari.

I finally understand the blue tape thing.
JOC was right. The 270 Winchester on a Model 70 is a great combination as is the 30/06 and 375 H&H

"Do you put tape over the end of your barrel?" But of course! Doesn't everyone? I prefer blue myself. The more the better. ![[Linked Image]](http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r111/handwired/bluetapemassacre.jpg)

I put tape on my barrel, never have worried about that. haven't worried about blue either. I think the older ones are color blind. ![[Linked Image]](http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f389/Rued/Hunting%20Photos/DeerHunts/006MTMuleDeer3.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f389/Rued/Hunting%20Photos/DeerHunts/05KurtsWYMuleDeer.jpg)

I don't put it on my rifle, but if the weather is that bad, I don't hunt. It isn't enjoyable to me. Am I missing a monster by hunting in dry weather? maybe, probably, I don't know, but it doesn't haunt my sleep or anything.
It won't change your point of impact though.
