    Wishing for a 224 Valkerie AX

    That’s the conclusion i came to, a .223 AI AT or AX isn’t going to happen. Why; In the AI series of rifles after the cartridge has left the magazine, it slides though the breach ring and into the barrel. This works on 308 class cases because the diameter of the case is large enough line the...

    Never been on Iceland Air but The stewardesses for KLM definitely make up for the crappy planes. The dutch got it figured out.

    New guy here. MN

    Just realized this has been dead since March. Oops. Only had the chance to shoot one match so far (i travel a lot) and dispite the pouring rain and freezing cold it was a blast! Don’t worry about how well you’ll shoot, just go out with the “ I want to learm” attitude. If you don’t mind...

    Yes sir, Daniele Bolelli collaborated with a few others and had a podcast on this as well as My Lia. Well worth checking out. Not something you listen to for a positive vibe, but definitely a piece of history worth knowing.

    Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn in “The Gulag Archipelago” states that the battline between good and evil cuts through the heart of every man. i just finish a series of podcast on the massacres at My lia and sand creek. Both absolute atrocities. Hard to listen to. Oridinary men were exceptionally...

    Short barrel magnum cartridge rifle?

    I’ll be honest, it seems like a strange combination of barrel length caliber and inteded use. Possibly a bit more info on the why the magnums and why that short of a barrel. White tails inside of 300 yards could easily be handled by something like a 7mm-08 with a 20” barrel. If it’s just a...

    Solution to a slow Tikka barrel

    Sounds like the OP has a higher round count, but for those with new rifles; Not a tikka but the 6.5 Creedmoor barrel for my AIAT took 600 rounds to finally speed up. It was sitting at 2735 consistently then over the course of about 40 rounds it jumped 90 fps. Velocity has been stable over a 1000...

    This has some real possibilities here in the Bear Pit

    You’re all wrong, it’s clearly a picture.

    Suppressors High heat suppressor covers ??

    I've only used the Rifles only HAD cover so I have no other products to compare it to, but I feel no need to try anything else. It's held up well 3 years of prairie dog hunts on a bolt gun and an on a 12.5" SBR that can get plenty hot. The construction is simple, light, rugged and effective and...

    Rifle Scopes Deciding on an optic $1200 budget

    The old Bushnell 3.5-21x50 ERS should be around at that price now. I have 2 and both track perfectly and hold zero very well. I take one of mine on a prairie dog hunt every year and dispite 5 days (5 days every year) of rough riding on a 4 wheeler it’s never given me an issue.

    Suppressors How long is too long?

    I have an Ultra 7 can on a 24” barreled AIAT. I’ve only shot one match so far but I do shoot a lot of positional stuff at the range and I have no complaints. I don’t find it a bother at all moving in and out of stuff or shooting off hand , in-fact i love it so much i never take it off.

    Ts customs??

    Excellent to work with and great turn around times (at least when I ordered). I had him rebarrel my Tikka T3 and it turned out amazing. Very clean work!

    Accuracy International honest accuracy

    My 6.5 Creed barrel on my AT will average .450” to .550” at 100 yards with me behind the trigger. Like every one else is saying, I find something that gets me about 1/2” consistently and let it be. What separates my AI from other rifles is that i seem to shoot it well everytime. Very rare i have...

    Remington 700 VS, VLS, SPS or Tikka Varmint (223)

    Tikka, Tikka, Tikka. I Love mine, the only factory rifle I'd buy (besides a new FN model 70) . The 1/12 in a 223 will be a big limit on shooting long range and, on top of that, Remington's quality has seemed to be hit and miss with no chance of improving. As for the stock; the plastic stocks...

    What is going on with my GAP rig?!

    I'm willing to bet the rifle isn't threaded concentric or all that extra stuff on the threads is causing problems. Even if the round does not strike the suppressor it can be affected. The easiest thing to try would be too remove the brake and washers and clean the threads up. I'd then screw the...

    Yo David Hogg, where you at?

    I’m archiving the videos of him contradicting himself incase the powers that be decide to erase it. I’m not huge on conspiracy theories but it seems very fishy on why he changed a huge part of his story. Everyone remembers where they were and what they were doing when tragedies happen.

    Suppressors Best carbon cleaner?

    I'll vouch for the CLR method that Okran primarily brought to our attention. It works wonders on stubborn carbon deposits but I would be cautious. Most suppressors use some form or another of stainless steel so most cans should be just fine, just double check component material specs. I...
