    Christensen Ridgeline vs Bergara Premier Highlander

    Do you have a weight or feature requirement? What type of hunting? What critters? cant speak to the two products listed but for $3k you could have an incredible rifle built, just won’t have all the bells/whistles (fluting, coating)

    New 6mm Advanced Rifle Cartridge

    Not sure anyone is claiming anything magic. I just ran the numbers that are discussed/reasonable for an AR and at 1000yds it looks a lot like my 308, 9.7mils drop, and 2.4mils with a 10mph wind, 1200fps at 1000 yds. (2700fps with a 108eldm) It is not amazing, it is just better than anything...

    Best 6.5 Grendel upper

    That’s why the GH uppers caught my eye, I did a bunch of math and I could get a 18” 6.5 grendel to weigh around 7.5-8lbs with a 3-9 scope and the AR platform for kids with very short LOP

    Best 6.5 Grendel upper

    Good looking upper, I’m interested in a range report, my kids need a hunting rifle and it seems most grendels and early 6mm arc’s are on the heavier side, and I don’t want to buy a proof carbon fiber barrel for a 150yd and under deer rifle

    Thoughts On a Training Tool For Kids

    Reactive steel is great for kids, mixing up distance and size is important Clay pigeons along a hillside at 50-100 yds are great if you can’t do steel, print your own paper targets, dots, deer shapes, my 8 year old daughter enjoyed about 6 storm troopers and death Vader printed to be about 3”...

    Oh boy...med examiner claims heart attack as cause, not asphyxia!!

    That “technique” - Using a knee to apply pressure to the neck, as I was taught is a way to briefly control someone who is really trying to get up and you don’t need or want to hit them (more than you already did) not a way to secure indefinitely while you wait to move them Perhaps I was poorly...

    Thoughts On a Training Tool For Kids

    22lr, I like the ruger Precision rimfire for kids to teach accuracy and a BB gun to teach alternate positions - small kids just are not strong enough to shoot an actual firearm offhand very well the RPRimfire is adjustable enough to fit pretty small kids, the next step up for my kids will be...

    Soooo.. We blew one up

    I’ve had a three ammo related malfunctions in competitions, two I’ve stopped the stage (3gun, oversized 9mm locked up the pistol out of battery) and the other I didn’t catch until I picked up my brass - that was the one that scared me some contrived prs stage -shoot off this thing and then that...

    Best 308 projectile for accuracy and self defense

    Semi auto 308 for 2 legged critters, 155/168 ELDM. I shot a deer at 50yds with a 178 ELDM 2700 at the muzzle, it was devastating. Jacket separated and the bullet Grenaded inside the chest cavity with the lead core passing through, insides were mush, broken ribs and legs and a deer that didn’t...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Pistol red dot - Aimpoint Acro or RMR for glock

    Just picked up another glock, this one a 17 MOS. Gonna try out a dot on it, just not sure which. I might use it for road trips, some ccw and hopefully some sort of action sport as well - most likely ccw and bump in the night what would you recommend?

    What upper build for new USMC recruit?

    The qual is all with acogs and IiRC wind corrections are holds now instead of dialing irons Long range (200yd) 22 long rifle might help, but if he has shot a little growing up, he’ll be ok, if he hunted growing up, he will have an advantage
