    Rifle Scopes Best Hunting Scope ?

    Care to expand on that thought?

    22-250 AI for Prairie Dogs... What would you shoot?

    What bullet are you using for 6.5? Runners seem to be the norm with the RDFs.

    22-250 AI for Prairie Dogs... What would you shoot?

    I’ll bet a 60gr vmax would make a nice splat. 73gr eld would have potential too, and better in the wind.

    I’d get a LRHSi from GAP. One of these days I’ll get drunk and order one.

    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    I get ~0.4 from my 110gr prairie dog load, so I think the accuracy is fine. Effectiveness? I shoot along side a 6.5 RPR, and I can hang on a calm day out to say, 1100. Any wind though and 800 is pretty much it. That said, 308 kicks a 6.5’s ass with subs, and I love subs. Trailboss is money.

    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    I lost less than 100fps going from 20” to 16”, and the rifle folds up to roughly the size of an underfolder AK. Put it in a backpack with tripod and gear, walk/ride a dirtbike in to where you want to hunt/shoot and never get a second look. Excellent if you have a motorcycle. 190 custom comp...

    16.25 threaded with TBAC 30CB puts the can just off of a 15” rail. Looks very slick, folds up very compactly.

    Parker Hale M82/84/85/87 and C3/C3A1

    I have a question for the Parker Hale enthusiasts, did some googling and didn’t turn up much. I’m doing a M82 inspired build using a beat up M82 stock I acquired. My question is, does anyone know the ring height of the RALS4 bases used with the ZF69 6x42? That scope has a 26mm tube I...

    I cut mine to 16.25, love it. Kinda want to get one in 6.5 and do it again...

    Hunting & Fishing Prairie dog thread.

    I’ve been running a 308 with 110gr nosler varmageddons over 50.8gr of TAC, shoots beautifully in my RPR. Under 200m it gets quite a few airborne but falls off pretty hard past 300. I second the mouse squeaker, I take my coyote caller out with me and just run the field mouse recording while...

    Had a good transaction with NorCal Vu as well, definitely a good guy to deal with.

    Rmas308 is solid, shipped fast and sent me tracking, great communication. Won’t hesitate to buy from him again.

    Hunting & Fishing Electronic predator calls, suggestions?

    I vote for the primos alpha dogg. My brother turned me onto it, we’ve killed a few wolves and lots of coyotes and fox between the two of us. Batteries seem to last a long time, sound doesn’t distort, lots of power but I never use it turned up very far. Lots of preloaded sounds, I’ve just used...

    Suppressors suppressor need recommendation

    Max noise reduction, I’d vote Ultra 9. Love mine, it’s very light as well. Only drawback is Ti isn’t the best if you want to run several mags through a semi quickly. If that’s going to be something you do with it, best to just get two cans, one of them being the U9/U7 in my opinion.

    High End Stainless Rifle Rusting Question (Not Abused)

    I’d look at it this way: chrome moly barrels will rust on the outside if left in the raw, but we don’t really worry about the inside of a blued or parked barrel because it gets cleaned periodically. Also, when hunting it’s the outside that gets rain, dew, etc. all over, not the bore. I’d...

    Hunting & Fishing I need the perfect predator round

    I’ve shot fox with a .22, just shoot them through the shoulders. Does a dandy job. My brother swears by a .222 with 40s for fox and he calls a ton of them. Doesn’t tear up the hides too bad.

    Hunting & Fishing I need the perfect predator round

    I call coyotes (5.56) and used to use 55gr vmax over benchmark, whacked a smaller coyote broadside at about 90 yards. Went to pick him up and the whole off side of his chest was gone and everything... just fell out. Switched to 40gr vmax, no more exits. That said, my shots are usually under...

    Best available over-the-ear hearing protection and why?

    Have to agree with this, I shoot with a can and my Sordins do great but when a heathen with a brake is next to me, I know it.
