    Training Courses First Aid for Firearms Training

    Look for a TECC (Tactical Emergency Casualty Care) class in your area. TECC is an offshoot of TCCC, but designed for the civilian world. It may be more than you are looking for, but is head and shoulders beyond the AHA class, which is just basic first aid (I teach all three of these courses)...

    Tikka T3 Thread

    In case anyone has he same question in the future, I contacted Mountain Tactical as well, and their recommendation was: "I would definitely use a rail. The rail offers strength, repeat-ability, and multiple mounting positions."

    Tikka T3 Thread

    I am contemplating getting a T3X in .223, and making sure I know exactly what I would need for it. I have an IOR 2.5-10x42 with Ken Farrel rings that I had on my Savage 10FP. In order to use that on a T3X, is it better to get a rail or use mounts?

    Recommendations on .375 H&H?

    First off, thanks to all who posted, both positive and negative recommendations, all were informational. The more I read, the more I began to agree that the .375 H&H probably isn't the most rational caliber for my circumstance. I also made the rounds of all the larger gun stores in the area to...

    Well, since you clipped my original quote, I'll reiterate. <<I have considered a 5.56/.223 (Savage Axis II) as an alternative. It might be better suited for my available distances, and I do have a decent amount of ammo. Reloading is not a whole lot of fun however>> Reloading for 5.56/.223 is...

    I have considered a 5.56/.223 (Savage Axis II) as an alternative. It might be better suited for my available distances, and I do have a decent amount of ammo. Reloading is not a whole lot of fun however. I'm not sure I've ever used ".22" and "enjoyment" in the same sentence.
