Subsonic hunting

Guys, let's talk generally about subsonic deer hunting under 100 yards. So far the cartridges on my radar are (limited to .35 cal):

6.8 spc?
300 blk
308 win
8.6 blk
338 fed*
358 win*
350 leg
Others?

Which would you choose as most terminally effective and why?

Also I've heard 308 is inconsistent subsonic. What does that really mean? So would you never try to hunt with it? Sometimes it just doesn't go bang? Or accuracy is terrible? Could you elaborate?

I voted today.

Got there pretty early, line wasn't too long. A guy behind me had on a Trump t shirt. I told him 'Lets try this again. Maybe they won't steal this one.' I also told him I doubt they would let him in wearing that shirt. He seemed ready with his answer and said it's protected under free speech. Yeah I know but they still will probably make you change it or turn it inside out.

Just then this liberal looking fucker with a Sierra Club cap, they have that look, came up and told him he couldn't wear that shirt. Shirt wearer recited the same line he told me, it's protected under free speech and he wasn't going to take it off. The Liberal looking hall monitor said well then he'd just call 911 and pulled his phone up. Lady behind him told him 'just go turn it inside out and vote.' The guy went in the bathroom and turned his shirt inside out and came back.

I asked the Liberal looking turd, 'So you think that t shirt was going to change Kamala voter's minds to vote for Trump at the last minute?'

Lot of old boomers wearing maga hats.

SOLD Like New Vortex Razor G3 6-36x56 MRAD w/ Non-Locking Elevation (Black)

I am selling a like-new black Vortex R3 6-36x56 MRAD scope which has been converted by Vortex to non-locking elevation. The windage is still locking. It has never been to the range or anything. The bubble level will go with it unless you prefer otherwise. It has the sun shade, throw lever, scope caps, and zerostop tool that come with it and will ship in its original box as well.

Payment ideally would be done via cashiers check or money order. If you have a decent amount of positive feedback on here I can do Venmo/Paypal. The scope will ship out via UPS the day the payment arrives if it's still within UPS business hours and I will text updates along the way, including with the tracking number.

I am not looking for any trades. Let me know if there's information or pictures I left out.

Price: $2,150

Will NF design a wide angle lens?

I keep wondering why tangent theta, Nightforce and zco are falling behind in the FOV department and no advertising or teasing that they have something in the works...
I'd be super interested in that zco 8-40 if it could have the super large fov like kahles, S&B or March.
also I wonder how much the extra FOV actually is on 25 power which is where I shoot a lot.

Learn from my brain fart…

If you’re in the market for a LB 1911, whelp 1911 Heaven’s website is a pretty good bet. I reached out to them the other week and still haven’t seen a response.

I checked their website and guess what was outlined in bold… no phone number/no response.

Guess what’s the one thing I didn’t include in my email? I feel like such the dumbass but I’ve since corrected my previous email. Now we’ll wait for a quote after following the clearly stated directions, ugh. Just don’t be me.

Why are all scope reticles black?

Does any scope manufacture make a white reticle? If not, why not? I get that many scopes have the ability to turn the reticle to green or red, but why not just a plain white crosshair reticle. Educate me. I shoot BPCR silhouette and my reticle blends into the silhouette and leaves me with no point of hold. I need a white reticle for ref on the black silhouettes.

Just some pretty pictures!!

Thanks to RTH1800 I got the right Unertl bases and finally had some time to fit the scope!

Bore sighted it at about 200 and hopefully will fire this week to dial in.

It’s a .220 Swift. So not a big caliber. But barrel is like new. And pretty sure it will shoot bugholes with a bit of dialing in Some handloads.

Got to find a way to display this with my ‘52.

They are like peas and carrots!!!!

Firearms SCAMMER alert. MOzak

A fellow with the user name Sparky1985 is selling some dasher does and I responded on his thread. I got a response from an apparent Scammer, (user name MOzak) who had zero history and joined only weeks ago. I just thought I’d missed noticing the zero feedback for the seller so I didn’t send funds.
As it turns out the actual seller Sparky1985 touched base to let me die was still available. Thats when I noticed he has actual history and the whole deal clicked.
Mozak has been reported and 5e moderators can sort him out.
Keep you eyes on who you’re working with!!
Cheers,
Layne Zuelke

223 Rem and other 224 Cal Variations

Hi All,
I started to load and shoot .223 Remington groups for accuracy. My build is a Zermatt TL3 action with a 26" Shilen select match barrel mounted on an MDT ACC Premier Chassis. My barrel twist is 1:9, I want to order another barrel with a 1:8 twist to use with heavier bullets.
Looking through the choices, I see all these other options in .224 Caliber:
  • 224 Valkyrie
  • 22 ARC
  • 223 Rem
  • 223 Rem Match
  • 223 Wylde
  • 223 A.I.
  • 22-250
  • 22-250 A.I.
  • 22 Creedmoor
  • 220 Swift
  • I want to shoot groups for accuracy from 100 to 600 yards. What is my best chambering for .224 bullets, should I simply stay with 223 Remington or also consider other chamberings? I would love to find a comparison article that analyses the options available today.
  • Please give me any input I should consider before moving forward. Thanks
