SOLD Left Hand Tikka CTR Stock with ARCA Rail

I’m selling my lightly used left handed Tikka CTR stock with a Mountain Tactical ARCA rail. Nothing is wrong with it. I never hunted with it, or participated in a match. It’s only been used at the range on a bench.

I’m selling it because I no longer have the action.

Asking $sold shipped/insured.

If you have any questions or want to see more pics, please let me know.

Thanks for looking, Matt

Leica Geovid Pro 10x42 AB+

I've had the Leica Geovid Pro AB+ here since December and have been using it pretty exclusively since then.
I suspect, it will remain my primary binocular at least for this year and quite possibly beyond that.
I finally have a wrap-up video up on Youtube:
Login to view embedded media and I discussed it in a few livestreams prior to that.
I have not yet had a chance to use it for hunting, but I have used it for a good amount of scouting. I had an aoudad tag for late February, but my dayjob went berserk, so I had to pass on it.
The cliff's notes version is that I am quite impressed with it. Optically, I think it is the best LRF bino on the market today overall, although it is quite close between Leica, Swaro and Zeiss.
AB integration in the Leica is a nice touch, since it works with everything else in the AB ecosystem. I use it with AB's Quantum app quite seamlessly. It also connected to my Kestrel without any issues.
They way they've got data coming out is more hunting oriented, I think. Competition guys would probably lean toward a busier snapshot view. I am sort of ambivalent in this case. For the way, I use them, it does not make any practical difference.
My only real complaint is that I would have probably preferred a 50mm and if Leica really wants to go after the competition crowd, they should really consider a 12x50 version of the Perger prism LRF binocular design. Still, as is it has worked very nicely for me through some impressively rough treatment and of all of the LRF binoculars I have tried, this is definitely the one that produces the least amount of eye fatigue. I can use it for a substantial amount of time through the day without any issues.

Suppressor Issue

Here's the problem: custom built M700, with a 24" Shilen 1-10 , reamer a .308-M852. Rifle is a tack driver with all factory Match ammo/sub 1/2 MOA. When I put my Banish suppressor on, either a 7" or 9" .308, I can't get the bolt open with ANY factory Match ammo (the same factory ammo that shot fine W/OUT the suppressor), or my hand loads. Take the suppressor off, no problem....suppressor on...PROBLEM! Silencer Central and Banish had NO answer for the problem.

S&B MTII Users

I have a PMII 6-36 with the DT35 elevation turret and ST capped windage. Before I bought it, I knew I would want to get the windage turret changed for sure, I want an exposed locking windage. I also wasn't sure if I would like the DT35 elevation and at the time assumed I would want it swapped for the DTII+.

Now that I have in in hand, I don't hate the DT35 elevation and also don't want to further limit the available elevation travel with the DTII+ (30.5mil), which means, if I am going to swap the elevation turret, I would be going with the MTII.

My question is for those that have used the MTII turret; how do you guys like it? Do you like the .05mil clicks or do you feel it is too fine an adjustment that just slows down dialing?

Best AR-15 Bolt Carrier Group For The Money…Who Ya Got??

Was putting together a list of best BCG’s for the money for a buddy of mine. Here’s my list, I'm curious what everyone else likes.

In general for the finish/coating I try to stick with full chrome or phosphated with chrome plating

My fav: SOLGW (bolt already comes with sprinco ejector & extractor springs)

Other good ones:
  • BCM
  • Sionics
Best “budget” options:
  • AO Precision
  • Microbest / Expo Arms

50 BMG primer seating depth

Having some trouble with my 50 BMG SDs. Dunno if it's the cold weather, or that fact that I now have a 2250 yard target and a GARMIN measuring shots that makes vertical stringing more obvious, or it is a new problem that sneaked in that I'm not aware of yet.

So as to not turn this into a giant referendum on all things 50 BMG reloading, I wanna focus on one variable: Primer seating depth.

I'm using a ($450!) M2 precision primer seating tool that indexes off the base of the case, not the rim. (RWS brass so almost perfect rim uniformity, but still - there is no better way to seat a primer than M2 in RWS brass). For years I've been using 0.007" seating depth, kinda the same as that guy who will not be named recommends for large rifle.

I no longer have access to FCSA, but a buddy said he saw on there that at least one dude is using 0.0175", which is over double mine, 0.010 more in fact.

Anybody have EXPERIENCE in this domain? Obviously, I'm going to try deeper seating, and I've already changed my setup for 0.015" depth, but I'm wondering how much is too much?

Xero C1 Pro - v3.30 update

Last week we released v3.30 for the Xero C1 chronograph. While adding some new functionality to simplify gathering data downrange, we introduced a bug that caused shots to be missed.

We have resolved the issue and a new version of software, v3.32 has been released today. We apologize for the inconvenience.

The new Downrange Mode in the Pro Settings can be used to verify or determine a true long range BC. By placing a second unit downrange (ex. 300 yards) and getting the velocity downrange as well as at the muzzle you can use your ballistic calculator to vary the BC until you find a match for the velocities at the distance you used. Downrange Mode will cause the display of the unit to flash black/white when it records a shot so you can more easily tell when the downrange unit has detected the shot.

Maggie’s Socially UNacceptable Humor

I was in bed with a blind girl last night and she said that I had the biggest 'member' she had ever laid her hands on.
I said "You're pulling my leg."

I saw a poor old lady fall over today on the ice!!
At least I presume she was poor – she only had $1.20 in her purse.

My girlfriend thinks that I'm a stalker.
Well, she's not exactly my girlfriend, yet.

A wife says to her husband you're always pushing me around and talking behind my back.
He says what do you expect? You're in a wheel chair.

I was explaining to my wife last night that when you die you get reincarnated but must come back as a different creature.
She said she would like to come back as a cow.
I said, "You're obviously not listening."

The wife has been missing a week now. Police said to prepare for the worst.
So, I went back to the thrift shop and got all of her clothes back.

At the Senior Citizens Center they had a contest the other day. I lost by one point:
The question was: Where do women mostly have curly hair?
Apparently the correct answer was Africa.

There's a new Muslim clothing shop opened in our shopping center, but I've been banned from it after asking to look at some of the new bomber jackets.

You can say lots of bad things about pedophiles but at least they drive slowly past schools.

Just put a deposit down on a brand new Porsche and mentioned it on Facebook.
I said, "I can't wait for the new 911 to arrive!"
Next thing I know 4,000 Muslims have added me as a friend.

The Red Cross have just knocked at my door and asked if I could help towards the floods in Pakistan.
I said I would love to, but our garden hose only reaches the driveway.

Accessories Rifle Mount your Garmin Xero - McLeod Precision

https://mcleodprecision.com/products/xero-sled-v1

$89 shipped complete ready to use.

Machined from 6061-T6 completely in my shop here in Northern Arizona. Comes complete ready to use including the ARCA clamp. Graphite Black Cerakote applied for finish. 8oz weight without the Xero installed. .350" thick and very stout. The ARCA clamp is inset to prevent shifting. The Xero can be rotated slightly on the mount if needed.

Mounting holes are provided if you decide to remove my clamp and install your own. Maybe you have a dual PIC/ARCA clamp like the RRS BTC PRO. You can verify your clamps fits by measuring the center to center hole spacing is 1.1" (ARMS-17 pattern) and the width of the clamp (center line of holes to edge opposite the lever or knob is no more than 1.280" which is an exact measurement no fudge factor). This fits a pretty large clamp. The holes are tapped 10-32. Please reach out with any questions.

V2 update - added in 3 center holes tapped 1/4"-20 so you can thread in your mini Xero Tripod or anything else interesting. Also check out the Kestrel Mount which clamps into the existing clamp on the Xero Sled and now you have a great benchrest setup or for your other non ARCA setup rifles.

Please check out our other products as well! https://mcleodprecision.com/ Thanks for supporting our small business!

Full details and available for purchase at

Kestrel Mount -
  • Designed to work with the Optics Bridge or any other universal mounting need for your Kestrel.

  • Includes a 4 sided ARCA on the bottom so it can be rotated 90 degrees if needed for your clamp orientation. Can also be hard mounted via a standard 1/4-20 camera style screw in the center or via 10-32 tapped holes in a standard ARMS17 pattern.

  • The grip fingers are designed to slide directly into the slots cut in the sides of your Kestrel with the perfect amount of tension. The rear of the Kestrel does not contact the back of the mount, preventing chafing.

  • Made from 6061-T6 aluminum in the USA. Carbon Grey Cerakote applied.

  • Includes the Kestrel Mount, (2) 10-32 screws and (1) 1/4-20 camera style screw.
Optics Bridge -
  • Clamp the Optics Bridge into your ball head and attach your optics, kestrel, range finder and wind flag.

  • Provides countersunk holes for common 1/4"-20 camera style screws to attach directly to those type of mounts on your devices.

  • 10-32 tapped holes set on a 1.1" ARMS17 standard pattern throughout, allowing attachments of clamps anywhere, top or bottom.

  • Full length, double sided ARCA rail. "Rotator" ARCA block included that allows a 90 degree presentation to your ball head. Very important for ball heads like the anvil-30 so the operating handle stays in the proper orientation.

  • The "Rotator" can be moved anywhere on the bottom of the rail for offset if you prefer all of your accessories on one side of your optics.
  • Made from 6061-T6 aluminum in the USA.

  • 11.9" Long X .4" Thick X 1.5" wide at 8.8 oz weight. Extremely rigid.
