Sailing (other peoples boats les than I would like these days) competitivly
Hunting (several guns, artic cat 300 4x4, Dodge 2500 4x4 and 11year old son) deer, pigs, ducks, geese, quail, man I have the tags to take any legal game or ferule pest in the Great State of Texas.
Fishing (century 2290 w/yamaha150 saltwater and 11 year old son)

Nothing more fun than watching a 80lb boy fighting a 38 inch Kingfish, the fight of the century (see boat brand). May be like me fighting an 80lb fish, I have never caught a fish that size.

Go to midwayusa.com or brownells.com They will have the stuff you are looking for. I would pick Midway first. On the .308, I had the Burris 6-24 on it before I put it on my Ruger #1. The .308 will group about 3/8" at 100yds with the right load.

3/8, thats surprising because my 22-250 would put it in 1/4 at 100yards right out of the box with cheap ammo from wally world. Practically puts it in the same hole on a calm day now with the action celaned up and the trigger job. I'll give midway a shot

PWC? = Personal Wave Craft? just guessing
Yes, personal water craft. Many say "I haveSeadoos or Waverunners", but that is like saying SIlverado or F-150 or Ram. Bambardier makes Seadoo, Yamaha makes Waverunners, Kawasaki makes Jetskis, Honda makes Aquatrax, etc. So saying PWC's is like saying I have a truck.

My hobby is my 1987 Buick Grand National turbocharged V6 3.8l

Takes up allot of my time and money, but its fun as hell and its faster than the $60,000 Z06 Vette and I have no where near that kind of money in it.

A lot more than I have time or money for. Most anything with a motor - ATV's, motorcycles, boats, PWC's, snowmobiles, vehicles. I have 2 PWC's (Kawasaki Standup that I am rebuilding and a Seadoo HX.) A 52' Ford F1 that I am slowly working on, but the great thing is I can drive it in the mean time. Working on saving for a harley. Always want to do something to my truck or my wifes durango. I try to play hockey on some league during the winter.

The bummer of it all is work gets in the way of everything [:@], oh well, the wife and I are starting a business to hopefully change that.

Four wheeling in the winter/colder months, and jetskiing in the warmer months. It is amazing how much a person can spend on gas while jetskiing. What kind of PWC do you have. I have 2 Yamaha Fx High Outputs, about 160 hp. They will run about 75 on smooth water :-). So fast it will make you cry. lol. I fell off once going about 55 and i lost everything except my lifejacket, felt like i was hitting concrete. I lost shoes, hat, sunglasses, swimsuit, kill switch and bounced what seemed like forever.
