Hadn't seen the Peterson before. Great option!

For the PRC, you won't really need to go longer than the "stock" magazines allow for long action cartridges. That said, both Hells Canyon and Mountain Tactical have mags that will fit the stock bottom metal (as well as real metal replacement bottoms) that are better, at least in the sense that...

Tony Tebbe "Den Raid". Can't use it often before they get used to it, but in a new area, be prepared with a shotgun, because they will come barreling in so fast it is hard to react. I had one dog almost run over me coming in from behind me...downwind. I could hear the growling and teeth...

I love my Omega--for everything from .223 up to my 280ai. The one time I put it on a 204, there was just too much free space. Quieter than without the can, but far louder than any other round I have put through it.

I'll take #3, pm inbound

Rifleman, I know you've already made your decision, but I wanted to throw this out in case anyone else is searching and runs across the thread. I'm a long time Ruger and Browning bolt guy, with a Tikka or CZ thrown in for good measure from time to time. Last year I started down the...
