    If you got a new Remington 700 SPS Tactical what would your first changes be?

    No first hand knowledge, but have been hearing the new 700’s are relatively decent for a factory option.

    Shitty Day

    Dogs are better than most people. I’m sorry man. I ran over my neighbors dog earlier this summer, old, mostly deaf and blind corgi. He wondered in front of me, I stopped, thought he waddled off but actually was under the truck. Tried to idle away but got him. I’ve never felt like such a piece...

    Would you get into 6.5 Grendel in 2024?

    Damn! Did you guys mix up some ground unicorn horn with African black rhino horn, covered in dried Sasquatch jizz? Can’t wait to see it. Also, is whatever you guys are cooking up going to be available to us, the public?

    .300wm - .300wsm

    62.0 seems low for H4350 when Nosler calls for max loads of Hybrid 100v at 63.5 and Hunter at 65.0. H4350 burn rate is about smack in the middle of those 2. That speed though!

    Why don't you see more .300 WSM?

    I got 176 a-tips past 3100…. Never shot anything but steel with it though

    Why don't you see more .300 WSM?

    Have 2, 300 wsm’s. Great round, hangs with the win mag up to bullet weights around 200 gr., after that the win mag has the case capacity edge. Unless you run a long/med action, throat it correctly, and seat the bullet where it should be. So far, 200 eldx at 2800-2850 has killed like a switch is...

    Would you get into 6.5 Grendel in 2024?

    Just grabbed one, starting my first Grendel build. Any idea whose blanks they’re using?

    This definitely sucks. Submarine lost.

    It’s not enough to explode at the bottom of the sea. You have to explode in space to be cool.

    How many Gen X are counting on Social Security?

    With an ‘85 birth date, I’ll never see it. Pisses me off to no end, that the government forces me to pay into a benefit for my future that I’ll never see. I could invest that money in a fucking savings account and see better returns than social security. Archaic and outdated concept.

    Boeing 737 Max at it again

    Couple operators in Canada still have a few. Company I worked for had 3, one had enough cycles left to still be worth something. It went to Canada, the other 2 are now beer cans. Hopefully not bud light….

    Tikka T3 & T3x lite barrel weight info - Please add!

    I like it so far, for just a pure lightweight hunting optic. The turrets under the caps are mushy, and mismatched with moa turrets, mil reticle. I zero’d at 100, and hold over in the reticle. Having the green dot always illuminated has been really nice, at 3x, I use it like a red dot.

    Tikka T3 & T3x lite barrel weight info - Please add!

    A lot of people (fudds) don’t realize that carbon barrels are only lighter than similar contours. A #1 - 2 profile is lighter. Light weight optics, I use a trijicon accupoint 3-9x42, 13.4 oz, mildot reticle. Only a year into it, but like it so far.

    Tikka T3 & T3x lite barrel weight info - Please add!

    If you’re counting oz’s they’re heavy. Ultra light pads are 1.2 oz’s, I’ve seen hardcore sheep hunters run no pad at all. That said, I agree with you. A couple more oz’s to make the rifle more shootable is well worth it.
