Hey everyone, new here from the GA/SC area (I'm constantly between the 2 for work, etc.). Not new to shooting, but new to the world of bolt actions, precision rifles, etc. I mostly dabbled in pistols and cqb rifles previously.

Selling a Grey Birch LDR (Long Distance Ready) in .22lr. This particular rifle was a custom collab with Fear Tomorrow and Astra Defense. Receiver embossed logos and woodland cerakote was applied as a part of this limited run. The rifle has under 200 flawless rounds through it and will come as shown with the folding stock, bag rider and one magazine. Optic, mount, bipod and suppressor not available.

About the LDR: As opposed to traditional 10/22 barrel installation, Grey Birch has developed their Fusion system to thread the barrel directly into the receiver resulting in a much more accurate system. They claim "We built it from the ground up on the premise that semi-auto rimfire can be as accurate and reliable as its bolt action cousins."

SOLD

Will ship to your FFL or willing to meet Texans FTF.

More pics to follow later this evening.

Anyone have first hand knowledge in running the gen 1 vs gen 2? Im wanting to get a BX4 12x50 and am curious as to if the ergonomic upgrades are worth the extra $300. The glass and coatings are the same correct?

Also, is there anything else i should be looking at around $500-800?

Thanks

Trying to make an informed decision on my next rifle for hunting. Going with the Xbolt. It seems going with the Xbolt 2 vs xbolt is a no brainer, although can save 200ish on the original xbolt.

-Im debating between the 7prc and 300winmag, I like the 7prc's numbers and the fact its marginally better then the 300 but had less recoil. However its a new round and long term availability, is a concern. I can not order ammo online where I live. I also like to get custom turrets find ammo and run it, so dont want to play the hard to find game. and have the ability to hit any gun shop and find a box of ammo if needed. Really leaning toward the 300 due to ease of ammo

-Looking at the Xbolt(2) down to the speed and the speed LR. along with the speed sporter. I really like the sporters as they come in at 40-42in overall length with the brakes, vs the others are 44 to 46 and some change, which is a long rifle to be throwing around. I am concerned about the accuracy of the sporters. I wont be getting a can for the sporters. The 7prc comes with a 20in and 24in barrel and the 300 in a 22 and 26in, understand the 4in is going cost me 200ft per second. still going to keep me at the 1800-2k ft per second in the 4-500 range.

-Some models come with the radial brake some come with the Recoil hawg, any thoughts on either, read the hawg is better but heavier, and heard the radial can come loose throwing off shots and spits back into your face

I shoot deer mainly in the 3-500 range, have taken deer out to 700. I would say I want something that is the most accurate under 1000yds, of which I think any of these would do, but is one combo better then the other.

anybody have good luck with any particular ammo in either of these rounds in these guns.

New to thermals here got them to hunt hogs so I got a TS35-384 on a 223 with a silencer have it sighted in about 80 yards when I sight it in on the range it’s dead on and then when I take it out I’m off usually over so any ideas or what yall think I should do and I also have the clip on the tc19 and I’m wondering what’s the best size of scope to run on that

Came over for the 338ARC conversation and was surprised to find that apparently I wasn't a member here. So that is resolved now.

My son had an interesting adventure over the weekend mule deer hunting. He broke the trigger guard and trigger while shooting at a mule deer (recoil slammed trigger guard into a rock he was laying over). What was fortunate for him , is that the gun still functioned after the damage shown, and he was able to put the finishing shot on a mule deer at 700 yards with the rifle. (Buddy was not hunting nor did he have a rifle).

It's not huge, but it will eat good, and any more, any deer in this State is a good deer (communist mismanaged state of WA). Department of No Fish and Wildlife, but I digress.

7mm Remington Magnum factory VSSF 162 Amax 71.4 grains Retumbo Fed 215.

It is the most tender liver I've ever eaten, and I've eaten a few in 50 + yrs of hunting.

Surprisingly, there was quite a bit of hydraulic damage, even at distance. I'll have to look at the ballistic program and see what the impact velocity was.

I'm in DFW near Lake Highlands. Just getting into PRS, was curious if there was a group who train together or anything. I've been up to Fossil Pointe a couple times but looking to join up and maybe pick up some pointers to start getting ready for next year's season.

Thanks.

I was hoping I could get some advice on a good starter optic. I am wanting to get into longer range shooting, mostly for skill development. I currently run a Vortex 1-6 LPVO on my 5.56 gas gun and grew up short range hunting (250 yard and in).

The rifle in question is an Aero Precision M5 in .308, 18", 1:10 barrel. Previously, my longest shot was 350 Meters. I'm wanting to develop my skills in the 500-850 meter range. I have looked at the Primary Arms SLx OPMOD 4-14x44 FFP so far. My budget right now tops out at $500.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Is this formula that was posted in a thread 12 years ago still valid?

g1 x .512=g7

I have some old red/green box .257 Nosler ballistic tips that I could not find a published G7 BC for, in 85 and 100 grain weights. In addition I have some 100 grain BT's with a cannelure that I would imagine that the BC will be slightly lower than the smooth ones? I also have 110 grain accubonds from the same time period, and don't know if the bullet profiles/G1 BC's have have changed as well over time. I did several searches and was unable to find a published G7 bc, but did see a post or two stating that Nosler's G1 may be inflated.

I'm working on developing a load with the 85 or 100 grain bullets that will hopefully produce shock, awe, and massive destruction on a coyote or three this winter. The 110's may be used on deer... next year

TIA

I've built a short action lightweight gun. Using a 737r right now on it (works great) but curious what other users' review have been when running an NBK.
Weight difference, lighter bolt, etc. Thanks.

So much stupid in this article I had a hard time reading it. In short Commienecticut now says hunting Rifles are not constitutionally protected.

Any of you have experience with a Armalite AR10 in 308? Seen them come on sale for about $1300 and have been looking for another hog hunting rifle. This will serve as my dedicated nighttime hog hunting rifle.
