    Hunting & Fishing Pls suggest Chest rig / bino harness

    I guess it depends on what you want to do. I use a Marsupial Gear bino harness. I couple it up with a Ferox Gear Beast Adapter when I want to carry, it keeps my VP9 on my chest between the binos. I like this combo a lot, but if you want a lot of gear storage there's better options.

    6.5 CM Factory Ammo

    Hornady SD and ES has always been pretty bad. I started shooting it in 2013, and the ES and SD wasn't really any better than what's being reported here. I haven't shot FGMM 6.5 Creedmoor, but the .308 stuff is single digit SDs out of my TacOps.

    Sako vs. Weatherby

    I had to look up those brands - wow they sure charge a pretty penny for work 🤯 Maybe I need to change my career to lightweight hunting gunsmith...

    New Build - Too many questions, not enough answers!

    I love 6BRA. Fireforming is really simple, and the fireform rounds are just as accurate as 6BRA. It's an incredibly easy cartridge to shoot and load for. Stupid accurate. Decent barrel life. I don't have any strong opinions about Foundation, MDT, KRG, etc. My rifles have JAE chassis's, and my...

    New Build - Too many questions, not enough answers!

    If the goal is to place higher up in comps, that money is MUCH better spent on training. If you just want a new rifle (and nothing wrong with that), then go ahead and build one. Make it different than your first one. Nothing wrong with a Prometheus action. You already have a 6.5 CM, why not...

    Welcome to Costco! I love you.

    They sell gun safes and gun cases. Bought a kryptek AR-15 case from there a couple of months ago that's decent enough for it's intended purposes, and at a great price.

    Welcome to Costco! I love you.

    Almost anything and everything. From supplies like toilet paper and dish soap, to furniture, appliances, TVs, gun safes, sporting equipment, car batteries and tires, alcohol, meat, charcoal, etc. If I'm in the market for any decent sized purchase, I always check Costco.com first. I'm eyeing a...

    2025 Snipers hide cup

    I so wish I was going to this. No need to bring your LRF. Practice mag changes between movements. Practice with a sling. Jacob likes no squadding, so move efficiently between stages and go to the stages that aren't busy. You can be done shooting by lunch if you want to really be efficient. And...

    Trump wants Bagram back.

    How many military bases do we have around the world? 800+? Do we really need to go back to that shitty country to add another foreign military base to the tally? What neocon is putting this idea in Trump's head? If anything we need to be reducing that number, not adding to it. We are...
