    Krieger vs. Proof Research CF?

    FWIW, I can also add that I in the past I had a Christiensen Arms CF barrel in .223 where the POI did indeed walk as it heated up causing more than a 1 MOA shift after about 5-6 rounds. This is one of the sources of the rumors that CF barrels walk when they heat up. I can also report that...

    Krieger vs. Proof Research CF?

    I have been blessed to be able to own and shoot both (in bolt guns). There is no difference in the precision or performance between Krieger or Proof CF barrels when shooting 20+ shot strings in less than two minutes. Both barrels will heat up to the point you cannot touch them without burning...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Need advice on a fixed blade for a bug out bag.

    Well folks to report back. So I just got back from a Deer Snipe in UT. Stopped by the BladeHQ shop in Lehi UT (very dangerous) and was lucky to get out of there for less than $1,000. Purchased a Chris Reeve Pacific 6" but I agonized for a long time not leaving with the Bradford Guardian 5"...

    "GoLite" PRS Build by MileHigh - its a shooter!

    I took the gun out to 1,000 yards the other day. Little wind (2-4 mph) and made a cold-bore 1st round hit on steel at 1,000 yards standing up behind the gun on the RRS tripod. So fun - this stuff actually works!

    "GoLite" PRS Build by MileHigh - its a shooter!

    After lugging 15-17 pound rifles around PRS style steel matches I decided I would try to start a new "GoLite rifle" fad by attempting to build a PRS rifle that weighs in at under 10 pounds with optics. It is possible - but harder with an adjustable...

    "GoLite" PRS Build by MileHigh - its a shooter!

    It is hard to build a "Do-It-All" rifle. I have been trying for many years - trying to build the perfect "head for the hills" gun. This build from MileHigh is as close as I have come but I would want a barrel swap to 6.5CM or heaven help me a .308 ... The gun has great "Karma" and just...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Need advice on a fixed blade for a bug out bag.

    I have 1970's vintage 6" Randal that my father gave me with our (same name) engraved on it ... too nice to put in the BoB. That's what started this. I have a collection of SpyderCo folders and will take one of those and have one of these laying around...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Need advice on a fixed blade for a bug out bag.

    OP back to review the thread. I knew I should shout out to the SH mob before purchasing and am glad that I did. Blacksmith of Isaiah i appreciate your response on the purpose vs design and understand and agree completely - much like why you don't try to shoot a bear at 2-300 yards with a...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Need advice on a fixed blade for a bug out bag.

    This has been great and I have learned a lot ... I also learned I will probably have to start another collection ... so hard to choose. Would like to shift the topic slightly to discuss the folder + hatchet vs. fixed blade ... does it just boil down to weight? Or is there something you really...

    Yes, I am totally overthinking this but in doing so I am learning a lot. I appreciate the help folks. I think that I am one of those guys that loves the journey almost more than the destination ... Otherwise I would have just bought the SOG at Cabela's and been done with it. Again, thank...

    Thanks @Novak77. "Soldier proofing", good elusive quality to have - the m9 was not up to the task - how about the rest of the knives mentioned here?

    What are people's thoughts on the m9 bayonet. Saw some of those for sale on eBay (used but good condition) for $75-$95?
