    Rock River Mock12 20" - Hands-down the most accurate rifle I own across all categories. Had a handful of scopes on it over the years. Main squeeze at the moment. Not quite as accurate, but still nearly sub moa with Hornady 75 Black and 69 FGMM. Slowly getting it cline correct, NF rings are...

    Short light suppressed whitetail hunting rifle

    Tried a few different setups this past year to fill this role for me, and with what I had in the stable I couldn't check all of the boxes. Light and Short - Check No can, and it had a loud bark. Tried this setup, did ok. Added a different stock and it feels MUCH better, but I'm still...

    Precision Rifles.....show em!!

    Thanks! I got after it with some Rusto and a sponge. Wasn't too much of a challenge. I'm going to try and do a 3 color gap type camo on the other canvas here soon.

    Precision Rifles.....show em!!

    Finally got around to messing with the Tikka .223 by adding a KRG Bravo on home done camo, and a PST 2 3-15 FFP from another rifle. Can't wait to get it out to the range! Recently picked up this 6.5 PRC bergara and after swapping stock/chassis with my .308 700, it's having an identity...

    Precision Rifles.....show em!!

    I just have a CO-X MG from Armasight. Before that I had a PS28 WP from ATN. The CO-X gets used 99% of the time on my AR because of ease in mounting. In the past I would have used a badger EFR or a coupler from scope to NV. CO-X on Sig Cross 6.5. ATN on EFR from a few years ago.

    Hunting & Fishing Best mount for predator light

    I used a weaver thumbnut ring to mount my lights for a while. It worked well enough for sub 200 pig hunting.

    Hunting & Fishing Another scope decision...

    I recently picked up a sig 3x9x40 with duplex reticle for an "inbetweener" scope for a hunt next week. It's going to get replaced with a PST gen 2 in January. My plan was to stick it on my tikka varmint in 22-250, and when I get the PST, throw it on a .22. My issue now is that today I was...

    Hunting & Fishing How much is too much?

    I see no reason against it. I've had to use 300 win mag and a 270 wsm on some deer around Austin when I had nothing else available. Granted, I stuck with neck shots, but I didn't waste any serious meat, or lose one.

    Hinged Plate vs Detachable Magazines on your Hunting Rifles

    I've used both, I'd say I have a preference towards dbms, but that's just because most of my rifles are set up that way. With that in mind, I think that a dbm would work better for me in most scenarios if I had to completely unload the rifle. If I had to unload momentarily for driving or...
