Lap your Rings

My equipment has worked very well for 48 years of hunting. My lady has has worked out even better for 37 years as of the 31st of this month.
. By golly when somethig works, why change it? I must do quite a few things right or must be the luckies guy on the planet because I have never seen any of the nightmare failings of equipment that I read about here. One thing for sure, its not because of a lack of oppertunity to fail because I have been and avid if not Rabid shooter and hunter since my Granpa bought me my first bb gun at age six. I was an avid sucktion cup dart gun shooter before that and a rubber band shooter before that.
Like BC, I fully understand that different folks view things different. We grew up poorer than dirt and had to make do with nothing to do everything. I take more pride in saving a hundred bucks than I do but having something fancy to look at. I did pretty well in life and thanks to a
an uncle I got to hunt almost everywhere that there are critters. I could have got nicer equipment many times but some things are hard to change. I have quite a few hunter friends who view thing more like most of you and I respect the way they do things. They often shake their heads at the way I do things but we get along fine.
They can't argue with my success hunting.
The one time I did lay out some big bucks for a rifle (Weatherby Mark Five), It was the biggest POS that I ever owned. That was about the end of my big dollar guns. My uncle left me a couple Sako rifles but they are do pretty to take outside. I have shot them but never took them out in the field. One of these days I am going to give them to his son who he didn't speak to at the time of his death. I better quit rambling.
