    Best caliber for big game at 400 plus yards

    The thing is nothing someone is going to carry around the mountains will reliably "anchor" elk unless you hit CNS. I've only seen elk killed with 7mms, 30s, and 338s. But none of them did anything special. Put it in the lungs, they go a little ways and fall over. Pretty similar to broadheads...

    Questions for those with SilencerCo, Dead Air, and Banish suppressors

    Have a scythe ti, nomad XC, and gen 1 ultra 7. I think the XC is the Best Buy right now. No issues with my scythe yet and they seem to be doing something to make them a little tougher. It’s got over 1000 rds of mostly 18” 6 creed. Put it in a prs gun with a recoilx now so it’ll go through some...

    Suppressor Problem, Dead Air - Advice requested

    Does that breakthrough stuff come with a BJ? premium price there. Kind of tempted to get it just for the brushes and tubes and use CLR for the carbon removal after the fluid is gone. Hate to clean 4 cans at those prices.

    Suppressor Problem, Dead Air - Advice requested

    Yes, I’ve never cleaned any of my cans and that needs to happen.. was just going to plug and fill with CLR, flush, repeat (at least the ti cans) but I’m open to recommendations for cleaning products if they are notably better.

    Awesome suppressor muzzle brake front end attachment by Recoilx

    Bummer to hear about the higher price for the new model but I might grab one still even though I’ve already got a couple gen 1s.

    Awesome suppressor muzzle brake front end attachment by Recoilx

    That’d be different, with a brake in front of it already.

    Suppressor Problem, Dead Air - Advice requested

    Did the can get to a certain level of carbon fouling to where it’s dropping carbon into the action when barrel up by chance? Had a match today that I’m pretty sure I had 3 fail to feeds because there were big carbon chunks that fell down on the bolt face from the muzzle end to where I couldn’t...

    I Spy New Baby Razor G3 4-24

    I didn’t say it sucks, I just think there’s a reason that 44ish objective scopes usually top out around 18x. Maybe they can overcome..

    I Spy New Baby Razor G3 4-24

    I dont think marches sell because the 3-24x52 i had functionally sucked and i'm sure the one with a 42mm objective sucked worse. And $3k for something that functionally sucks doesn't drive sales. Turrets were great. 24x with a 44mm objective sounds like a scope that is not likely to be...

    Muzzle brake or suppressor for 300 WM?

    haha! i'm trying to picture WTF that looks like still. OP hides in the bushes with his savage sniper rifle and his buddies pretend to kick in doors off in the distance with their PCCs?

    Muzzle brake or suppressor for 300 WM?

    Agree with the general sentiment of what you're saying, 300 WM is a pretty poor option for "Sniper LARPing". But being as berger's old factory 215 ammo was near 2900 FPS in 26" barrel, i would expect a 20" salvage to be capable of 2650 without effort.

    Muzzle brake or suppressor for 300 WM?

    It wont. The ports are to the side, not down.

    Muzzle brake or suppressor for 300 WM?

    LTI XC is going to be quieter, longer, heavier, little more expensive. The regular nomad XC with a recoilX should in theory reduce recoil more than the LTI XC with a recoil X. This is because there would be more gas pressure at the brake since there is less suppressor volume reducing said pressure.

    Best caliber for big game at 400 plus yards

    I'd be hard pressed to build something bigger than a 7 mag. Have done the 300 wsm/wm/norma and I just don't think its needed nor is it ballistically beneficial over a 175+ 7mm IMO and i'm doing my damnedest to get away from aggressive muzzle brakes.

    Suppressors Abel Theorem S (braked) vs TBAC Magnus RR-K vs Maverick (short)

    So how does the Abel compare to the Maverick in recoil/muzzle rise mitigation? Does gas through those little top ports impact ability to spot impacts/trace?

    Defiance bought out

    BAT saw the prices and said hold my beer, here comes the $1900 hammerhead and $2000 Vesper.. That said, i do want a hammerhead. Hell if i'm paying $1900 for one though.
