    Bergara MgMicro Lite Review ***Updated 2/2/25***

    @Unckebob The scope held zero the entire season of use. It was never babied but never dropped either. Lots of truck rides in the mountains and strapped to the pack for long hikes in the dark. Not to mention all of the slips and spills I took in the blowdown. I'd prefer something with a little...

    Howa Mini Rifles, Builds, and Upgrades

    It holds 4 rounds in a 6 arc. Not sure if that would vary with a smaller diameter case like a 223.

    Howa Mini Rifles, Builds, and Upgrades

    I have not seen a photo comparison between the OR Gunsmithing and the Jefferson Outdoor hinged floorplates. For reference the JO is mounted in the stock. I don't have the individual weights but regardless I much prefer the JO.

    6mm arc build Howa Mini or buy complete

    Brownells listed specs are always a little dubious. You are correct as it is a 5/8 thread.

    Argali Yukon 8p review

    It was not bad at all. I used the clip-in half liners which were extremely effective at minimizing condensation. Firing up a stove every day helps a lot too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Argali Yukon 8p review

    Yes. This past November was really wet in my area and the precip came as rain, switching to snow and back to a gloppy mixture of the two. I was never at an elevation where it would snow a foot overnight but the wet heavy snow loads shed really well from the shelter. The steep angled sides helped...

    I’ll be down for a quick lap or two around the Salt Palace. I’m interested in seeing those new Swarovski’s as well. Hopefully we’ll bump into each other. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Argali Yukon 8p review

    This past fall I spent a lot of nights using the Argali Yukon 8p tent as a base camp at my vehicle. It was a mix of windy conditions on the prairie of eastern Montana and heavy precipitation conditions in the western half of the state. Use this thread to ask questions you may have about the...

    Bergara MgMicro Lite Review ***Updated 2/2/25***

    Yes it is. That same lot of ammunition has some spicy numbers in the longer barreled rifles too.

    Argali Selway

    Not taken personally. I appreciate your perspective and can see how it could appear that way. Keep in mind that any honest review is never black and white and there is no perfect product for all uses.

    Argali Selway

    FYI, The review I wrote on the Selway is not "sponsored" and are my independent experiences and thoughts on the shelter. I have no affiliation to Argali and am not told to have a specific outcome or to ignore problems that arise. If a product has issues I will address it in the review. People...

    New Argali Yukon 8P 2-Pole Tent **Review Added 2/9/25**

    Like Brad mentioned the liners cover the door panels and I will attest to their effectiveness with moisture. I've been using this shelter with both half liners in place and they make a huge difference with condensation. Also the fabric of the Yukon is a ripstop Silpoly and has almost zero sag...

    Suppressor wait times

    Single shot trust was just approved 2.5 weeks after certifying. Beats 7 months like the last one I bought. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Weatherby or Bergara?

    I currently own 3 Bergara's and have had zero issues with them. One of them is a Wilderness Ridge Carbon and is a great rifle. I did a quick evaluation of it here. Bergara Ridge Carbon
