    Tikka T3 & T3x lite barrel weight info - Please add!

    The counter point to your carbon barrel hate is that unlike a steel barrel you can shoot a ton more through it before it starts to walk, if it even does. So you can have both a range gun and a super light hunting rifle. So if you're buying a single barrel and hanging a can on the end, carbon...

    looking for new hunting rifle for large western game

    I guess I was asking more because if you compare a 7prc 180 to a 6 Creed 108 @ 500 yards, you get 6.5in vs 11in of wind drift at 10mph. Also get 10 less inches of drop with the PRC. So those are the benefits I can see, all those numbers get far worse with a 77TMK 223 with 16in drift. The...

    looking for new hunting rifle for large western game

    One thing I've never understood is the 223/243/6creed game talking about how well the 108 eldm is at killing anything that moves, then wouldn't the logic support moving to something like a 7PRC with a 180gr version of that same bullet? Are we just debating recoil only now? Genuine question

    Best AR caliber for hog hunting with supressor

    I've shot 5 good sized boars in the last two weeks with the standard 16" 223 with 62gr Federal Fusion. Drops them in their tracks every time for me, so no need to over complicate it. I run into coyotes a lot, so I don't want to change calibers and shed a ton of velocity for shots that could...

    Precision Rifle Gear $600 Tripods

    What's everyone looking for when buying a higher end tripod? I'm running a RT80c with a N44 ball head from amazon, and it seems to do everything I need. I use it as an AR/bolt gun platform for thermal hunting as well as for my spotting scope. It has been perfect everything I've done with...

    Night Vision 384 thermal scanners

    Nice, I was in the same thought process as you, I have a Steiner S35, and with no QD, I was planning to look for a handheld. But I think I'm going to just move on from that and buy the AGM Varmint with QD mount so I'll be using it as the spotter and main thermal. Following along.

    Mine is stuck in USPS mystery land 😡. Supposed to be here Thursday and now I have the dreaded “moving through the network” with no delivery date. Hopefully it gets back on track.
