    Echo1 on bow

    Thanks for all the info, deltav. It sounds like both the echo1 and the night vision approach have challenges and problems. I'm starting to think maybe I would be better off just clamping on one of my green lights to my stabilizer and using it with my illuminated pins. I have already checked out...

    Echo1 on bow

    I understand that the weight of the Echo1 will change the balance of the bow, and if that proves to be a major problem I can just use the same mount with a laser while wearing my night vision monocular.

    Echo1 on bow

    Using the Echo1 will be done without using the peep(and without removing it), since the thermal sight has it's own reticle. Once the mount for the Echo1 is in place, I can attach the Echo1 to the rail for use at night, and remove it during the day so I'm not carrying the extra weight. Does...

    Echo1 on bow

    I saw the BSA Archery red dot mount and didn't like the fact that the sight ends up sitting sideways. Then I found the Messer Accu-Mount system shown here in this picture. The bullet points below are taken from the web sight for the mount - Messer Accu-Mount - messeroptics At only 4.3 oz. the...

    Need help building a night time hog killer

    Have you considered the Keltec RFB 308/7.62 ? Mine has knocked down both hog and moose. It's only 8.1 lbs, has an 18 inch barrel and because it's a bullpup it is only 26 inches overall length. It has a darn nice trigger too. Here is my RFB with an XSight mounted on it and I also have a SeeAll...

    bullet choice 454 Casull

    Thanks for the welcome...! I'm currently in Anchorage but I have lived all over the state, on and off since '68. I always seem to lean toward the hardcast myself, but I have also had good success on hogs with Barnes in other calibers. The lighter bullet will have about 1/2 the holdover at 200...

    bullet choice 454 Casull

    I'm going to be hunting pig this spring with my Rossi 454 Casull lever action rifle. My loads for bear protection up here in Alaska are 335gr hardcast at 1950 ft/sec, but i was wondering if the Barnes XPB 250gr bullet at 2000 ft/sec would be a better choice for hogs. The shots will be up to 200...
