T1x ACE in Hand - Review - Pictures - Info - Thoughts

I think the whole idea of a "crossover" rifle is dead. As much as we all want a nice walkabout rifle that also shoots comps, the it just doesn't work in the real world well enough. The purpose built comp rifles are now too far ahead. Maybe I'm wrong but it sure feels that way.
I think I'm going to disagree.
I think you always had to choose if you wanted it 70/30 hunting vs target shooting, or the other way around and NRL hunter has captured both of these approaches. Having a rifle that can me a 7lb mountain rifle and a 30lb competition rifle was never an achievable goal.

NRL hunter has effectively create a competition series designed for cross over rifles.
With just a barrel change (for most people) and going on a diet, many rifles PRS rifles will get under 16lb for NRL Heavy.
With a few extra weights many "modern" hunting rifles can be competitive in the light division.

How this relates to the T1x ACE (and T3x ACE Game) I think they've gone down the lightweight crossover path which is fine, for CF use you have the ACE Target if you want a heavy competition rifle.
Not having the equivalent heavy competition rifle in RF is the stupid part, and when people see my rifle and the pencil thin barrel, without exception people think it's dumb. I don't think you can say they don't understand the market, as the obviously know the NRL and PRS CF markets, I think they just made a RF version because it was easy.

I've sent my thoughts to our NZ Tikka distributor, will be interesting to see if they pass them on to Tikka or not, and what response they get.

And more Karen Read trial bullshit

you mean Ruby Ridge? that was ATF you moron. wow 2 bad ass ATF agents suffering a lethal attack by some teen and his mutt? ass holes couldn't even hit a baby at that range missed and hit mom. who started the Waco fire? aliens?

You just don’t like cops cuz you couldn’t pass the psych evaluation to be one

Next you’re gonna tell me Janet Reno wasn’t the best attorney general in the entire U.S. history.

India vs Pakistan

got to add all the disasters in ME. Syria being only the latest. my confusion is why Trump has continued aid to Ukraine. that was a big point in his campaign. he claimed he would stop it and could have ended that war in 1 day as he claimed. here i agree 100% with Macgregor. pull out every US weapon,all US personnel (including the CIA),stop all payments of any $ and yes stop any humanitarian aid. would have to fight congress to stop everything Biden already authorized,but....
personally,i care less about what happens to Ukraine. their common people have been fucked over but that is not our problem. we basically did it and can't undo it without sacrificing even more of our resources. with the biolabs and corruption of our exec branch and congress,they can fuck off.
tell the corrupt,woke Europeans to deal with Putin. fuck Europe with a cactus. we do have a seemingly growing # of neocons on here. they sing the same song. we have to stop the Russians or they will go into Europe. good for them. none of our Z sucking dorks have ever come up with a reason we should be involved and how it is in our nat'l interest. it is always some form of but,but,but we have to,we have to. same song our in the gov neocons keep singing.
actually the same applies to Israel.

Another city crawling with invaders and murderers




Houston- 422 of the worst of the worst rounded up in a few days - by feds

The local police were content to write $185,925,180 in tickets and fines and fees in fiscal year 2024 - BUT not arrest murders rapists and arsonists . No money in it I guess .
