    Weatherby® Introduces Model 307™ Alpine ST

    Thank you for the write up. Nice to know they offer it in 5/8x24, being the standard for 30cal cans.

    New Rifle Inbound: Barrett MRAD

    +1 switch to mils and get FFP. If you go with NF, I like their Mil xt. Tremor reticle would probably confuse you. It’s too busy for me. With mils, in 6.5cm, you’ll get past 1k yards on the first rotation.

    Feasible to rebarrel?

    I spun my first tikka prefit on recently, a proof, and it was perfect. Piece of cake

    Fighting over a baseball says much about people's life's & life goal.

    I’m disappointed he gave her the ball. Don’t reward that behavior

    Tikka T3 Thread

    Basically, don’t follow his lead. I bet that guy fucked his action threads up by cranking on the external wrench. Barely snug was plenty for me.

    A true Sportsman's Paradise up for auction

    If it’s anything like my state, public access is the high water mark…..and I see a LOT of high water marks on almost every inch of that property. So, around here, you’d never be able to keep people from hunting/fishing all that water

    Leveling a scope

    Yea, you gotta level the rifle first and have a way to keep it level. Use the wheeler level kit. Put the little level on the rail, then attach the level that clamps onto the barrel. Make both levels match The level clamped on the barrel is a constant reference to make sure your rifle is...

    What does this mean?

    Probably 200, as they’re separate charges with 2 different levels of severity, but it likely depends on that specific court and how they do it. Around here, if there are 4 separate charges they are lumping together, with $100k total bond, on the list of charges, they will have each valued at $25k

    Tikka T3 Thread

    I started ordering parts for this build last October. The barrel was by far the longest wait, but finally showed up after 9 months, just in time for my hunt in 3 weeks. I’m really happy with how it turned out. I’ll get it out this weekend. 24” 6.5prc proof Scythe Ti Nx8 f1 4-32x, NF rings LRH...

    A scope ring question.

    Are you sure it’s “.275” and not 1.275? .275” would be less than 1/3 the height of the lowest rings ive ever seen. Don’t worry about getting it as close as possible to the barrel.

    Manners Composite Stocks Estimated Lead Times

    I transport most of my rifles in a hard case with the bolt pulled, so I’m constantly taking my bolts out. That’s where it’s going to suck most. But also cleaning, etc, etc. I haven’t picked a case for this new rifle yet. maybe I’ll just use a nice soft case.

    Manners Composite Stocks Estimated Lead Times

    I am really happy with it overall. But why would Manners make a specific tikka variant (LRH tk), that doesn’t allow the tikka bolt to be removed without first removing the cheek piece? Couldn’t the recess have been made to work with the rifle the stock is designed to fit? This is just a heads...
