    Tikka t3x stainless vs blued. Pros/Cons for each.

    I was thinking that, but wanted to confirm. People are also parting these guns out like crazy, to get the actions.

    Tikka t3x stainless vs blued. Pros/Cons for each.

    Did tikka ever make a t3x with a blued action/stainless barrel. I found a t3x hunter in a gun store that appears to have that combo, and can’t tell if the action is ceracoated stainless(black color), or blued.

    Gieselle AR triggers

    3.5 lb required? Not even close. All mine are between 1.5-2 lb. Very crisp, and no doubles ever.

    Gieselle AR triggers

    Although it’s a single stage, the best ar trigger I have used by far, is the JP enterprises that they use in their factory builds. It isn’t a jewell, but its as close to a good bolt gun trigger as it gets.

    Building 223 kimber mountain ascent

    I forgot about those, although they are $2700+ now, if you can find one. Plus the $ for rebarrel. I don’t know if a 223 in a Montana format is worth it when you might be in it $3500 without scope.

    Reduce the chance of getting scammed

    A scammer will never agree to FaceTime you with the item in hand, cause they don’t have it. A very good tool to use if you aren’t 100% sure if it’s a legitimate seller.

    Building 223 kimber mountain ascent

    The 204/223 84m action is different than the others. Not to mention that kimber won’t sell you parts. Your only option is buying a 204/223 montana, and that’s like looking for a unicorn.

    Do elk cross large boulder fields

    They will cross that like it’s nothing when pushed. Otherwise I would think they go around.

    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44mm SHR-Mil Q&A

    Probably landowner depredation cow tag. I can get them. Sucks to shoot a cow with a calf that big though.

    Planning a Mountian Lion Hunt and Have a Few Questions

    I wouldn’t consider that a failure. 150+ lb toms aren’t common, so it’s not surprising you didn’t find one. To the OP, if you are willing to shoot a smaller female(although some outfitters won’t let you shoot females), the success rate is pretty good. If you are looking for a big tom, plan on...

    Q&A Zero Tech Trace ADV 4-24x50mm Tremor 3 reticle scope

    That’s what I figured, but on the flip side, people complain their favorite scope(looking at you ZCO), is being treated unfairly, while throwing out the bias card. It takes time to do these tests, and this whining occurs while waiting for updated testing, in which the scope doesn’t slip in the...

    Q&A Zero Tech Trace ADV 4-24x50mm Tremor 3 reticle scope

    What is the purpose of testing at such a low ring cap torque(18 in/lb)? It seems like it would be a waste of ammo, since scopes sometimes slip.

    Why cant people accept the fact that some people dont need a drop tested scope?

    In the end, drop test passing scopes have a much better chance of functioning correctly, whether each one is tested, or not. That should be common sense. The scope evaluations are information only. What people decide to do should be up to each individual.

    Why cant people accept the fact that some people dont need a drop tested scope?

    Using scopes that are likely to hold zero is no better than using scopes that are likely to lose zero? Makes no sense. You are so emotionally invested in proving the people who use tested scopes wrong, you don’t think about what you post.
