    Lightening up a howa mini

    I have a 22" pencil barrel howa mini in 6.5G as well, but it does not shoot anywhere near as nice as the bull barrel. I would give up weight before I switched to the stock howa pencil barrel.

    Lightening up a howa mini

    I like that stockys carbon, since it closely matches the lines of the stock that I have.

    Lightening up a howa mini

    Actually, I see that bell and carlson sporter is only 2lbs so just switching to their stock will offer the largest possible change. I know the Jtac elf owl is lighter, but I am not a fan of it.

    Lightening up a howa mini

    Just thinking, not necessarily doing. My go-to hunter is a howa mini 6.5Grendel in a boyds laminate tactical/varmint stock. All dressed up she weighs 10lbs loaded and I'm wondering is there much I could actually shave off of it? My brother in law wants to do some deep country hunts this year...

    Garand Thumb - The Freezing Shotgun Test; What Shotgun Is Best When Frozen?

    I enjoy Garand Thumbs tests because they treat them as just a bunch of friends goofing off and it's fun to watch them play around. I do wish that they would have tossed a tavor 12 into the mix for funsies.

    Wind at W.A.R. Rifles / Geissele Match in Tremont, PA?

    WAR is my favorite place to shoot. I usually close out there year there with their October match and its usually been cool but wind hasn't been terrible, usually holding one far edge of the target. Max range is 1250 or so. The first time I shot there I used a stock remington 700P in 308 with a...

    TRG appreciation thread - Part III

    I had it fold once during a PRS match (thankfully during the load and make ready portion), and honestly I haven't needed to fold it otherwise. Its one of their early stocks and I think the locking latch is a little worn. So I just wish it was the fixed version because it is offering me...

    TRG appreciation thread - Part III

    I didn't have any issues with installation and no special inletting was needed. It was easier taking the action off of the chasis, though I did have to get the barrel that came on the gun professionally removed as it was on crazy tight. I'm not sure if it is as accurate as the aftermarket barrel...

    TRG appreciation thread - Part III

    I love the rifle, its been good to me including a 1st round hit on a 5inch circle at 1000yrds and a 1st round hit at 1250yrds. My skill as a shooter has gone to shit since I had my first child and never get to practice anymore, but the TRG has been there for me in all but 2 of my PRS matches...

    TRG appreciation thread - Part III

    My TRG as it sits now with KRG barrel in 6.5man bun, KRG folder (I wish it was the fixed version) and March 4.5-28 in a sphur 4701. I'm also a member of the 5 mag club :D

    Anyone try a 6br in a sako trg?

    I'm curious how they fed from the stock trg mags. My winchester m70 in 6br fed fine from aics mags, but the action was cut too sloppy for the mags and all feeding issues I ever had was because the whole mag pitched forward, not from the cartridge.

    Better valve clip on for 3k: nv vs thermal

    I think I answered my own question tonight. I had a deer in the field at 200 yards. Currently I have a sightmark wraith 2-16 on a rifle and an atm thermal spotter. They are very close in cost. The NV can clearly identify the deer as a deer, whereas the thermal spotter is just some pixel blobs...

    Better valve clip on for 3k: nv vs thermal

    I originally had intended to snag either a steiner c35 or swarovski tm35, both of which are msrp 5k but deals place them sub 3k. For 100-300 yards, at the 3k price point, what would offer the best image clarity? A clip on NV like AGM or one of the thermals above? As listed in my other thread...

    Rifle Scopes Sako TRG 22 mount question

    There is also a roll pin holding the rail to the receiver. Once you get the machine screws out the rail will still be firmly held in place. You can pull straight up on the rail to unseat it from the pin, do not try to get the rail to come off with sideways pressure.
