    Always cracks me up how people boast seeing "too many" deer in their "secret spot". Plenty of new and young hunters that would be keen if somebody showed them those "secret spots" of yours.

    I carry a small trigger lock for when I'm in a hut as I use a single shot so no bolt to remove.

    Yes. Don't touch the clip on once it's sighted in. Remember though that firstly your clip on must be shooting to the same point of impact as your scope does. Any variation between the 2 will always...
