    shot conformation

    I shoot here in texas, Rem 700 5r 300 win mag, in an AI AX chassis. 5 shot groups, but there is always a flyer, only 1 minute between shots after cold bore. I always thought it was pretty darn accurate, maybe a .8 moa if I took the flyer out. Went up to nightforce in idaho on a cabelas...

    Thieves Amongst Us

    This is exactly the cause. The meth and fentanyl are causing a huge spike in property crime. It is even happening here in TX. It's a shame this happened to this hunter. Something like this which you can find on amazon, probably would help in most cases.. Wsdcam Bike Alarm with Remote 2...

    My Sherman 6.5 max-600 yard ladder/group test

    The green might be the best if it weren't for shot 9. When I get a flyer like that I check myself first, because the others are all vertically strung

    Are the prices ever coming down on components?!

    There are too many factors to list, the bottom line is keep stacking whatever you need when you can find it. You may get less and it may take you longer to accumulate the supplies, it is better to have now than to try to buy when the real panic buying happens, and this is not only...

    Does A Can or Suppresor Increase Back Pressure and Decrease Velocity??? Well????

    I use a can on a an 6.5 grendel AR. I use a BCG that is adjustable for gas pressure, like the ones from Bootleginc.com There are 4 settings, from Unsupressed to Suppressed,.. when I shot without an adjustable BCG, the brass was ejected forward, indicating over-gassed. I haven't done chrono...

    What range finding binos is everyone liking?

    I have the vortex fury 5K ones, I have successfully glassed object (not animals) out to 4000+ yards, they claim 5K range on objects : 5 - 5,000 yds (reflective) 5 - 1,600 yds (deer) they are about 1100, and work really well and have a lifetime warranty..

    Clip on thermals

    I agree, not much info. I have a 6.5 grendel, a 308 win, and a 300 win mag, and I agree the concept of a clip on to use between the 3 would be awesome. I was always told by those who hunt hogs, coyotes..etc, that use a thermal monocular to locate a target and use night vision to positively...

    Moving from 6.5 PRC to 300 PRC

    I got a 300 PRC 2 years ago.. ammo was cheaper than 300 win mag, 35$ a box for hornady match. Now it is 129$ a box, if you can find it. That is more expensive than 338 LM.. even this summer i was able to pick up 100 rounds for 200$

    Advice on new scope purchase

    I find having a hashed reticle nice for hunting, once I get my zero, i can figure out my holds for different yardage with no need for scope adjustment in the field. When you have just a cross hair, i am just guessing the hold or need to make adjustments. The 338 rum will drop 40-50 inches at...

    Best dawn/dusk low light deer scope

    The bigger the objective (56 vs 50 vs 40) the more light it will catch.. but of course the quality of glass matters too. So if you cannot afford a good quality new scope, look for a used one that has a lifetime warranty, vortex vipers or above, leupolds, nightforce, lieca, swarovski. If any...

    What brake?

    I will say this, I took a long range training class, 200+ rounds in 2 days from a 300 WinMag, no brake, a lot from the prone position, out to 1000 yards, using the 190 grain federal GMM rounds, I am 5.9 170, not a big guy.. and I bruised my shoulder bones.. I was sore for a month.. but checking...

    What brake?

    Agree the brake w/o plugs can be really bad. My friends wife is small, I bet she weighs 105 wet.. and with a light rifle w/o a brake, she would probably not be able to hunt the larger animals. Same thing for smaller kids, like my 14 year old niece, she might be 80 lbs. You wouldn't want them...

    What brake?

    get one that has ports on the top also.. this help keeps the rifle from rising. Ports on the side will help with recoil, on top help with rise, so get a combination. I cannot remember, but i think I put this on my rem 700 300 win mag and it does a great job...

    Consistent first round flier

    Oh totally.. 10 rounds of practice/checking zero before courses/hunting/matches .. the other point that stood out in video, is that he says use the same cleaners, same methods all the time.. good info Not sure if you saw the movie Jack Reacher, but the final scene with Robert Duval perched at...
