    Talk me into or out of buying a suppressor, please.

    You will not regret it at all. Buy 2 and start saving for a rimfire one too.

    Short barrel creedmoor loads

    I wasn't really either...until I loaded them for me, 3 kids and my dad last year and we killed a bunch or critters. Lets just say they work. You get 3 petals that break off and do additional damage and then a solid base to punch through. My dad shoots a bunch of deer and was very hesitant. Not...

    Which hammer?

    We don't get many snow days in South Carolina. I went calling right after work. 85 Hammers 6.5 Creedmoor. Bang. Flop. First kill with the hammers. Small exit, ZERO blood. 85 yards, I drug him about 5 feet to that tree and ZERO blood....but I cant argue with dead.

    Which hammer?

    Reloading skill is moderate. I’ve been doing it a few years but not a lot by most standards

    Which hammer?

    I’m wondering how fast they will be from that short barrel? Should be a factory 1-8 twist. St
