    Official (DTA) SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Thread

    Probably a lot of reasons. But I would guess one of the below. 1. Meat 2. Unique 3. Maybe they are pests 4. Trophy 5. Because they can 6. Population control 7. Money generation for the local tribe/government

    CZ 457

    I’ll have to look. Maybe that’s the issue

    Uses for 17HMR

    Well similar to Idahon. We use the 17hmr when hunting ground squirrels for farmers and they only want rimfires near their pivot lines. I’ve have 300+ squirrel days (we don’t get paid but they let us hunt for free). This year if the weather cooperates (spring rains can ruin a hunt) I am...

    CZ 457

    Random question. Has anyone taken and stoned the bottom of the bolt to get rid of the engraved numbers to see if it smooths up the action? Winter time tinkering. I love the 457 and all the improvements but I still think it’s not as smooth as the 452/455 actions because of this. It doesn’t...

    Black collar arms straight pull bolt gun?

    How good is the 22lr barrel and how does the action cycle with the 22lr set up? We have one gun store locally that only deals with blaser (high end African hunts etc…). I’ve handled a few models but never shot one. Having all the barrels and what not sounds cool but how effective is it and...

    Black collar arms straight pull bolt gun?

    I’ve watched this one as well since the beginning years ago when it was announced. Haven’t seen one review video or review posting. Also “spring assist” turned me off, similar to the bushmaster “bolt” action rifle. I have shot the POF “bolt action” ar10 and while it shot very well, it was...

    Black collar arms straight pull bolt gun?

    Interesting. It’s like a sig cross had an affair with a slutty blaser straight pull rifle. Wonder how it will shoot. I love innovation but I think their butt stock needed to be more like the Cross or Fix. Or let you use ar15 butt stocks easily.

    It’s very useful. I was hoping over the past few years deserttech would have made a lighter weight version (eg. carbon fiber handguard, slim barrels/heavy fluted barrels, lightened the buttstock). I wouldn’t want to loose the capability and features chasing lighter weight though.

    270Win Precision Rifle???

    This will be a sweet. Always had a soft spot for the 270. Even so much as to consider a shorter barreled 270 tikka and load 110ttsx bullets for a soft shooting gun for the kids. Long range 270 will be cool to see.

    Official (DTA) SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Thread

    Been a while since reading this thread, but for those that hunt with them, what’s the lightest (sans scope) that you been able to get one to? Thinking this year I will try and budget for a SRS + proof 6.5 barrel and hopefully a 223 conversion. Wasn’t DT going to make a lightweight receiver a...

    Anschutz 1710 MDT ACC Now Open to Pre-Orders

    Is the Fortner action that good or a seller? The action is awesome but the price compared to other anschutz and vudoos is higher. Can’t wait to see all of the new stuff coming out this year.

    My new favorite rifle 1727f

    This is probably the best 22 I’ve ever seen and yes I comment on it every time because it’s amazing what you’ve done. Coolest action, most comfortable stock, great integral suppressor so it looks stock, amazing scope, etc… if it shoots half as good as it looks, it should be amazing

    Anschutz 1710 MDT ACC Now Open to Pre-Orders

    About time to see this. How hard is the magazine swap with this chassis? The fortner actions are going to be super cool in this chassis.

    PSA berg 14r carbon barrel.

    Wasn’t there a centerfire barrel company that promoted the benefits of “tension” CF barrels? Basically if you can tighten a nut on the end of the barrel and create enough tension with CF it will resist “whip” when the barrel is shot or starts to heat up. I might be missing some key components...

    Bergara bmr vs Christiansen ranger

    My two cents. 1st I’ve only handled the CA ranger. But after reading the reports on it, I would pass for now (and they are local to me). The bergara is nice, there is a thread on them. If it were me, I would opt tikka T1x or cz457. I have both and they are both great shooters as well as...

    223 has a 1:8 twist which is good.
