    How’s the new Tangent Theta 7-35?

    Wait the eyebox is actually better on the 7-35 at the same mags as teh 5-25? Well that's something. FOV isn't necessarily a deal breaker for me and it's not like that's TT's fault considering the patent rumors I've been hearing about. Makes me want this scope even more now.

    Cleaning Muzzle Brakes?

    My brakes (non-surpressed) get cleaned every time I clean the rifle (every time I shoot). And they are a PITA. I've started soaking in Boretech over night and then put in ultrasonic cleaner. Then scrape the rest off with a brass tool. It's gotten to the point where I'm thinking of just ditching...

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta 7-35

    I like the TT because while it's clearly meant for tactical applications and lends itself well to PRS-style comps, it's also great for precise shooting. Maybe not for someone shooting bench rest or who shoots 100% F-Class. But I have one rifle and one scope. And while it definitely leans toward...

    Torque Wrench Shootout: Reviews + Tests

    Just have a look at the testing results and choose one that appeals to you the most, feature-wise. I like Wiha the most because it comes with a full bit set, good warranty, it's calibrated with certificate, relatively affordable, comfortable to use, and good customer service.

    Torque Wrench Shootout: Reviews + Tests

    You're reaching dude. Imposing my perspective on him? That's exactly what you're doing here—projecting. Get over yourself and that chip you have on your shoulder. We were snowboarding together for 7 days in the back country with his dad, his brother, and some family friends and had fun talking...

    Torque Wrench Shootout: Reviews + Tests

    Yeah, they do. Which is probably why he had no clue what hand loading was or barrel harmonics. I just thought it was interesting that a pro shooter, even one shooting .22, didn't know much about firearms in general. We compared our respective disciplines and I shared a bit about long-range shooting

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta 7-35

    There's another thread that goes into more detail on this. But yes, diopter does play a role in this. By definition, parallax error is only 100% eliminated when the target and reticle are aligned onto the exact same focal plane. That means they are both 100% in focus. And the byproduct of that...

    Torque Wrench Shootout: Reviews + Tests

    Well I stand corrected haha. That's also a bit terrifying. I suppose if someone is sponsored and gets a free (new) gun every season, they probably don't care. EDIT: Your comment got me thinking about some guys I met this past winter while snowboarding in B.C. One of them was a young Olympic...

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta 7-35

    Yeah, same. Totally understandable and makes sense. I think these scopes have a nice balance. It's easy enough to get the target nicely focused. But I have seen other scopes where the out of focus area is much more blurry, so it's easier and faster to focus. I'm not really complaining. TT...

    Torque Wrench Shootout: Reviews + Tests

    It's important to note that this number is their acceptable tolerance for any tool that goes out the door. But of the ones I've tested, their accuracy and precision is actually MUCH better. That said, I don't think any manufacturer would guarantee an error % reaching down in to the tenths of a...

    Torque Wrench Shootout: Reviews + Tests

    I think the only way to really "know" if a torque wrench is within spec is to test it using a calibrated testing device.

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta 7-35

    We all like what we like, but I actually prefer a less forgiving parallax. More forgiving is good if you can't or don't want to mess with parallax in the heat of the moment. I get that. But having a shallower depth of field (less forgiving parallax) means it's easier to nail that exact sweet...

    SOLD Tactical Marlin 1895 trapper

    I spoke to Midwest. They said the early rails didn't clear the front sight but they've since redesigned them to fit. So it depends how old your rail is.

    LOL!! So, tactical lever gun is a thing now?

    haha no worries it's all good :) But you know... people play dress up with these guns in their original stock form too ya know. Put on a cowboy hat, leather chaps, boots withs spurs, plaid button down tucked into a huge belt buckle and play action pistol and cowboy gun games... Doesn't make you...

    SOLD Tactical Marlin 1895 trapper

    Is the front sight the stock one or the one that comes with the Midwest handguard? Does it touch the handguard at all?

    LOL!! So, tactical lever gun is a thing now?

    Yeah the more I look into it, the cooler it gets. What someone does to their rifle shouldn't matter to you. What are you the fucking government? Are you really trying to gate keep the hobby? It's a gun that's been around for 130+ years. If you're such a purist get off the internet and join an...

    I've already got that covered :)

    LOL!! So, tactical lever gun is a thing now?

    Actually I just found a shop that does Marlin 45-70 conversions. They spin up a new barrel chambered in 458 SOCOM and machine a new bolt. Might be something fun to do. I don't get the hate for a fun tactical toy. These are cheap rifles that have been made forever. Doesn't make sense to me to be...

    I'm reviving this thread because fuck it... I like this new trend and want one of these. So... Henry vs Marlin for a .45-70?

    Teach Me About "Tactical" Lever Guns

    I'll admit to finding these newer tactical lever guns to be pretty cool. I just found out about Mad Pigs Thumpers built on the Marlin 1894, 1895, and 336 platforms or Henry Repeaters. Are there any other companies I should look at that do these kinds of tactical conversions? Honestly, I just...
