    Suppressor and accuracy

    Thanks for your reply. Do you prefer the asr muzzle brake that can be included or do you attach the suppressor strait to your muzzle?

    Suppressor and accuracy

    Considering ordering a silencerco omega 36m. Plan on using it on a couple 6.5’s and a 300 prc. My question is if any of you have had diminished accuracy with this device? I understand there can be a shift in point of impact which is fine. More concerned about long range accuracy for my hunting...

Im sure you have already checked that but figured id bring it up. It can happen with any rifle. I use a muzzle brake and will...

    Bino Harness Selection (AGC, Kuiu, Badlands, Marsupial)

    Kuiu pro version was my favorite for my leica geovid and standard shaped binos. I recently purchased the swarovski NL Pure 12x42 with a forhead rest. Neither size of the Kuiu Pro harness work well with this new bino. The cover catches on the forehead rest. Marsupial harness, medium, is great for...

    Shoot him, or wait another year

    The way i look at this is if you have already shot a buck that size or bigger then I’d wait. If that would be the biggest deer you have ever killed then take it. Hard to kill a giant if you always shoot medium or large deer. Once a buck is a giant shoot it no matter what😉

    Preferred bullet weight for 6.5 CM

    I had the same question 2 years ago when my daughters were getting ready for their first antelope hunts. I was wanting to start my kids off with a smaller load and work them up using a 6.5 cm. I purchased some 105 grain sierra blitzking. I did load work up and what not. We were successful on two...

    6.5 PRC - Make143 ELD-X work

    I know this isn’t the answer you want. I saw the same thing with those bullets in that caliber and same gun manufacturer. Switched to Berger 140 elite hunter and problem solved.

    Are the prices ever coming down on components?!

    It’s the pipeline analogy. When the pipeline gets completely drained then it takes time to fill before it will produce again. The last year all the major bullet manufacturers like Hornady, Federal, and many others got priority for powder and components. What is frustrating for me, I’m a Berger...

    Trying to level scope

    It’s sounds like you got it figured out. I was thought that I was never supposed to us the flat surfaces on the outside of your scope to level your reticle. This is because no matter how nice the scope, there is no guarantee that the top of the scope cap or flat surface on the bottom of the...

    What to do with older 22-250

    The groups are a little over 1 moa. I’m kinda an accuracy snob. I used to think that was great as a youth but that doesn’t excite me anymore. So the gun ends up sitting in the safe. I’m into quality and not quantity of rifles anymore. I’d rather have one really nice firearm then 10 mediocre...

    What to do with older 22-250

    Yes that something I’ve really been thinking about. A 22-250 was my dream caliber as a teenager. Anymore I’m not one to save the pelt of a coyote and don’t think there is such thing as a coyote that is too dead. I think a 22-250 is a great gun out to 400 yards, for me who’s not a sharp shooter...

    What to do with older 22-250

    I have a Remington 700 22-250 that was purchased in 2003. This is one of Remington’s many mass production rifles that are so so. Sometimes they group and sometimes they don’t type of rifle. The barrel on this rifle is shot out and doesn’t group anymore. Here is my question for you all. I cant...
