    Hunting & Fishing First Kill with the 6.5x284

    Re: First Kill with the 6.5x284 Great bear and good pics. I have so many hunting calibers that I really like, but it's my 6.5x284 that comes out the most for hunting North America. I've been using the 130 grain Swift Sirocco II and Nosler Accubonds for game from pronghorn to big northern...

    Hunting & Fishing Bullet Suggestion for 300WM

    Re: Bullet Suggestion for 300WM The Partition is tried and true old timer. I'd say any is ok, pick the one that shoots in your rifle the best and go spot and stalk!

    Rifle Scopes Side focus on hunting rifle optic? Or go simple?

    Tikka T3 Varmint Project

    Re: Tikka T3 Varmint Project Very nice. I would love to find a NF 2.5-10 with the straight tube like that for my rifle. I've been eye balling on here on the Hide for sale, but it has a LV reticle. I'd prefer the NPR2. Mine is a work in progress which I'll have done soon. I hope!

    Rifle Scopes NF 2.5X10 Compact ?

    Re: NF 2.5X10 Compact ? I have both the 2.5-10x32 (2 of them) and the 3.5-15x50 on rifles here. For a hunting rifle can't beat the 2.5-10. I have the NP-R2 reticle and it's all you can ask for in its low light performance and field friendly use. I bought the 3.5-15 for a semi-dedicated...

    Custom Tikka----which caliber??????

    Re: Custom Tikka----which caliber?????? I'm actually looking for a lefty T3 in .308 right now. I'd like to do a few things to it before making it into my "truck" rifle. The detachable magazine is a big plus in that role since they changed the laws here to allow carrying an uncased rifle in...
