    Hunting & Fishing Kifaru vs Kuiu

    I was in you same boat and have buddies with Kuiu packs and almost when that route. Kuiu makes great gear (in asia) at more affordable prices. Kifaru makes exceptional pack make in USA (Berry compliant). As many have said Kuiu tends be on the lighter side compared to Kifaru but this also depends...

    7mm Sherman Short Mag

    Yes. Because you are using a mild charge it doesn’t really matter how deep you jam the bullet into the lands, just that they are jammed. The idea to to make the brass pressure out. Jumping the bullet reduces initial pressure.

    I used 52gr H4350 and 180eldm to fireform my 7SS. Worked fine.

    7mm Sherman Short Mag

    3000fps is certainly achievable but remember there is a difference between max velocity and accurate nodes. Lots of people like to quote their highest velocity like their lowest SD but max velocity nodes tend to be more finicky with temperature changes and especially with wet conditions. I...

    7mm Sherman Short Mag

    To clarify for those looking for max speed, my 60.1gr load of H1000 works for me as a low pressure load with extreme low ES. By comparison, I found in my setup H1000 was compressed at 61.6. Only the slightest freedom of powder at 61.4. I went up to 62.8 without pressure signs. Only using Area...

    7mm Sherman Short Mag

    I had mine done at Patriot Valley Arms and LRI has done Shermans before. I believe Seekins Precision might be offering Sherman chamberings in the custom shop now too.

    Rifle Scopes New Meopta Scope - Optika6

    You may be disappointed if you think the Optika 6 will compare as closely as the Meostar B1’s do to Swaro’s. It is important to keep in mind, Meopta’s top tier glass compares with top tier German glass but the Optika 6 is not Meopta’s top tier glass. It will thus compare to “not top tier” glass...

    Rifle Scopes Lightweight PRS Scope Options

    Haven’t seen it mentioned yet so sorry if it has but I would steer clear of a titanium action for this type of use. Titanium actions are not intended for high round counts.

    Tips for Benchrest accuracy from PRS style rifle

    I have a hard time understanding the benefit of a traditional ladder test where nodes are defined by velocity and barrel whip vs a Satterlee Velocity test. Is the ladder test more for fixed distances? Wouldn’t a consistent velocity node be most consistent at various distances?

    Rifle Scopes Reticles for Meopta Optika 6 scopes.

    I love the reticle with the exception of the alternating numbers on either side going down. Would rather have then all on 1 side. Thank you helping get Meopta up to date.

    Rifle Scopes Reticles for Meopta Optika 6 scopes.

    I would be very interested in the 3-18x56FFP for hunting with SCR2 reticle The 4.5-27 or 5-30FFP with something like the SKMR3 or EBR-7C. Floating dot center, .2mil wind with a few mils for holdunder. .1mils section for target measuring

    Rifle Scopes Reticles for Meopta Optika 6 scopes.

    Correct me if I am wrong, but I was under the impression Meopta was one of the few in-house manufacture of reticles so it should be rather easy for them to update their lineup with detailed feedback from the community.
