    Good, inexpensive chronograph?

    Good and cheap are mutually exclusive terms. If your not paying the highest price possible you are getting worthless junk and your groups will be worse than a hungover Fudd's who just drank a gallon of coffee and is wearing choppers. But once (at the highest possible price), cry once. Seriously...

    Tikka 595 Rifle Owners.. want a Ai cpmpatible DBM for it?.. We have it

    According to the guys at CDI the bottom metal and the AI mags work fine with the Master Sporter stock. As soon as I get done with a current project I'm ordering the bm and mags for my rifle.

    No contest. Tikka has the best barrel, trigger and stock period.

    Where to buy steel?

    I've got a bunch from Big Dog and Bobcat. Steel from both companies has held up excellent, many of the pieces are 3+ years old and some have taken well over a thousand rounds.

    All around hunting/shooting range finder.

    +2 I've ranged out to 900+ off 4x8 plywood sheets. On soft it's good to about 800 in lower light.

    Muzzle blast on the short 6.5x47, Creedmoor, and 260's??

    I have a Savage Striker .260 with a 14" barrel - it's pretty damn loud. It's getting re-barreled right now - 16" and threaded so I can run a can on it.

    Striker barrel length

    Top - thanks for the link. I've done a bit of research, but I haven't heard of that forum. I'm stoked to get this rig up and running. I cleaned up the trigger last summer and it's fun like it is, but a rifle scope, Bartlien bbl and suppressor should be pretty mind-blowing.

    Striker barrel length

    OK - so it's not a rifle, but it is bolt action so close enough. I'm finally getting around to getting this Striker project going. Got a stock Savage Striker chambered in .260 Rem and a Bartlien 6.5mm 1 in 8 5r blank. Gonna have it chambered for .260 Rem but I'm undecided as to where to cut the...

    Hunting & Fishing Gutsy Game Warden

    I don't care if that moose was 2 seconds away from keeling over, that warden is bad ass. I take off after bears because I think they're interesting animals. I wrestle bull mastiffs to vaccinate them. People are always telling me I need to be more careful - that I'm gonna get seriously hurt...

    Tikka T3 Info please

    Re: Tikka T3 Info please I'd reconsider the 24" (it's actually about 23 3/4"). I've got a Master Sporter (the T3 Sporter's ancestor) chambered in .260 with a standard target contoured Bartlien barrel (heavier contout than the stock barrel) and use a suppressor - it's really not that unwieldy...

    Recommend a good thigh holster

    Re: Recommend a good thigh holster I've got a 6004. It stays put. Granted, I have it set up so it rides pretty high - high enough that I only run the bottom leg strap.

    Suppressors Does Anyone Leave the Suppressor on ALWAYS?

    Re: Does Anyone Their Suppressor on... Always?.... I've never had any POI shifts between sessions. I never shoot the rilfes I have set up for suppressed without a suppressor, but I do have zeros and separate ballistics charts for non-suppressed just in case. This is with QD mounts, not threaded.

    Gun Safe

    Re: Gun Safe I've got a Liberty as well. And I cannot stress enough the need to buy a safe about twice as large as you think you'll need.

    wow, what a sweet Schmidt Rubin Swiss K31

    Re: wow, what a sweet Schmidt Rubin Swiss K31 I've had a K-31 for three years and still haven't come up with a load to match GP-11. K-31's are rad rifles. I used to think I sucked with irons before I got mine. Longest I've reached with mine is 600 meters, but I've found the sight to be dead...
