LRF w/ballistics

Looking for an LRF with onboard ballistics. I will eventually get a Kestrel 5700 Elite so I'm leaning towards a compatible unit.

Curious to know if the onboard ballistics of the LRFs are worth a damn until I get the Kestrel. I currently use a combination of Strelok and GeoBallistics. As for my use case, I plan to stretch target shooting out to 1,200 yards and hunting out to 500 yards.

Beginners equipment questions

Looking to get into LR. At present I have a Remington 700 .270, 30-06, AR15 5.56 and a Ruger American Ranch 5.56. I just put a Arken scope on the Ruger and would like to start with it. My range only has 200 yard max, but have access to another range with up to 1000 yard distance. My plan is to use this Ruger up to 200 until I feel comfortable to move up. So here are the questions:

How far will this rifle take me(5.56)?
Is it unreasonable to think this 16 inch barrel will reach 1000 yards accurately?
I will have to keep you a budget, and have found a Remington 700 sps tactical in 6.5 creedmoor. Would this be an acceptable rifle to move up?
Also looking at a tikka upr. Should I shoot the Ruger for a while and save for the Tikka? I don’t want to buy twice if I can avoid it.

Thanks in advance.

Warhammer 40k

Any Warhammer nerds here? Not just the books/videos but the tabletop game also? I’m not…yet, but I can feel myself being pulled into it. I’ve read a few of the Black Library publishing books years ago but never really gave it much more of a chance. I’ve watched the Astartes clips on YouTube like a million times and the new Amazon episode is pretty awesome. I can see myself reading tons of the books and any videos they put out but I’m intrigued by the table game as well. I think painting your own pieces and reading the lore from the source could be really cool too.

This video is amazing and not just because it was done by one superfan over several years. It stands on its own. I love the whole thing but I can’t stop watching the fight scene starting at 3:50. Its some of the hardest shit ever

Suppressors SiCo Scythe review

This seemed like an interesting suppressor for the hunting and general purpose folks, so I thought id try one out for the good of the forum. This is not an exhaustive review, just some show and tell. I have no affiliation with SiCo, but I am a SOT and purchased this from Allen Arms at the dealer price.

I like light/short cans for hunting, and own a pair of Ultra 5’s for the purpose. Always been happy with them, and they do really well on medium length barrels(20”-22”). The Scythe should be a fair bit quieter, for only a small weight and length penalty.

The Scythe is a 100% titanium can which is 6.16” long, 1.76” in diameter, and weighs 7.3 oz (more on that). Its 300 Rum rated with no barrel restrictions. Thats pretty stout, and after a quick perusal of the web, there are other rum rated small ti cans, but none without barrel restrictions. It comes with a direct thread mount and a single baffle brake. It also includes the bravo tool, a spanner tool, and something they're calling the radial tool.

The Scythe looks very well made. All of the machined surfaces are perfectly finished, including the threads. The laser welds are perfect. There is a slight color variation across the can surface (see below). The advertised weight of 7.3 oz doesn’t include the DT mount. On my scale, the complete can weighed 8.3 oz, with the DT mount weighing 1 oz by itself. Definitely on the light end for Ti cans, but 7.3 oz with the mount would have been awesome. My firing tests used a Ti Area 419 suppressor adapter on their standard steel universal-adapter, which weighs 8.5 oz total.

I cut a muzzle thread in the lathe and took the opportunity to check the straightness with the included DT mount. Measuring from just inside the end cap bore(not the brake baffle), total indicated runout was just under .0035”. This is very good, and basically what you’ll find from Thunder Beast cans.

I didn't go crazy with the the firing portion. I used a U7 Gen 2 30 as the baseline since its zeroed on my 6cm. Two three shot groups with each can on steel at 525 yards, dialed for elevation with no adjustment or holding for wind. Cans were swapped between each group. It was a calm day but the first two groups were affected by some left to right breeze. Very small test, but there doesn't appear to be any meaningful degradation of accuracy or shift as compared to the U7. If you're wondering, both cans shot one .5 moa group and one .3 moa group.

There’s a downloadable manual on the website which makes mention of a radial tool. It doesnt show a picture, or talk about its use, but it must be this thing. This would allow for tightening the can onto your mount of choice. I like the idea of a soft vice insert for the purpose, but this works too and doesn't require a vice.

Regarding sound, I cant tell the difference between the Scythe and the U7. There’s just nothing between them to my ear. I didn't shoot it next to the U5 gen 2, but no doubt the Scythe is quieter. I wasn't able to shoot it on a 30 cal magnum, but I seriously doubt its the quietest 300 wm can SiCo has tested. Seems like a weird claim that could only be possible if they've never tested any medium to large cans that are known to work well on magnums. The Scythe would be a good choice on a 30 cal or other magnum hunting gun though, that I have no doubt.

I hated the anchor brake that the omega 300 came with, and I removed them and replaced with the Hansohn bros flat and caps. The Scythe brake doesn’t seem to add noise, but as best I could tell, didn’t reduce recoil with a Creedmoor sized case either. Speaking of the Hansohn flat end caps, the Scythe accepts the Omega version. The Omega 300 gets quieter with these caps, but the Scythe didn’t seem to be affected.

SiCo’s first attempt into the Ti can segment seems to be a good one. While I was playing with this one I kept thinking how expensive it was at $1174 MSRP. The configuration I was shooting it in using Area 419 Ti adapter adds about $180. I kept thinking the Diligent Enticer S, or Otter Creek Hydrogen S or K would be the better buys, with almost no tradeoffs. I just checked this morning though, and it appears that the MAP pricing for the Scythe is $996, so that makes it a little more reasonable. Still puts Otter Creek and Diligent one to two hundred bucks cheaper.

I bought this one through Allen Arms (dealer only distributor), and they had a bunch in stock. They're a big outfit so your dealer may have access to them. I’ve no affiliation with Allen Arms other than they’re my go-to for purchases. Captiol Armory has them in stock for MAP price at the moment. Silencershop shows them for the MAP price, but none in stock.

Im sure I missed something so fire away with any questions.

Precision Rifle Gear tripod lock?

got the Leofoto SO-362CX inverted tripod with the help of a cert i picked up at a regional rimfire event. As i currently have an optics setup on another tripod and i bought this with the sole intention of learning & utilizing tripod rear when the stage calls for it.

are the MPA tripod locks worth it? is there maybe a 3d printed version people are using instead? or just try to move right - left and not screw it up lol

thoughts?
