Look at a fierce reaper or mountain reaper depending on how light you want it.

Apple air tag or something similar.

Take a big case and put gear in it. It costs the same for an extra bag if it’s a Single or a 4 rifle case. Use the space for gear you want to protect on the flight. Binoculars, spotting scope, etc. Load it up as and use the spade.

Thank you. I couldn’t remember other than it was shorter than I expected when I was tinkering with one.

Tikka magazines length is too short for long magnum. I think you are limited to 3.45 or so oal. 300 wsm would be a better choice on a tikka. Maybe the chassis allows you to go longer than that is if so then have at it.

Send it back and check it when you get it back. I wouldn’t assume anything other than it was not chambered properly from the factory to start out. Don’t waste your time and money chasing anything until they have been ruled out.

I am all for innovation but wouldn’t larger quantities of a few less options be a better route In todays world? They have so many to choose from yet very little to sell. They shouldn’t stop making 140s, 180s, and 215s for very long. Tried and true. It’s a hard market to play around with anything...

My 20” proof shoots 215 Bergers at 2650 with H1000. Handy little bugger to pack around.

I skimmed through the Facebook posts. The problem is speed and not accuracy. I wouldn’t be surprised if proof got sick of the complaining over fps. Now it’s you cant fire me because I quit. I agree up above most of the time these posts get shut down really fast. It’s another thread to post to...

Great point. It automatically defaults them to be smarter than someone that bought a creedmoor if you can believe that.

I wonder where proof would be today as a company if they marketed their barrels as the fastest on the market instead of building a reputation of accuracy? Proof barrels shoot. Plain and simple. I’ve read more comments about this line of cartridges not being as fast as advertised than I will ever...

H110 for light bullets and 1680 for heavies.

That’s a nice shot!!

How does inflation make that less of a burden each month? Wages aren’t going up as fast as inflation. With the home value going up so are your taxes, repairs, water, power, etc etc. if you sell it to buy the next you can’t rent in the mean time and replacing it is even more expensive. It’s...

Because it isn’t the fastest doesn’t mean it’s dead. Its fast enough with good manufacture support and marketing. It’s far from dead.
