    Suppressor Timetables

    Yup, I got the last EVO Harvester at our LGS. It’s going on a new 300 WM Benelli LUPO. I’m venturing into techy country. Have the Sig Sierra 6BDX scope and compatible RF. I’ll be out at the range in a week (I Hope) to see if they all talk to each other. Break in the barrel and zero the scope.

    Suppressor Timetables

    So I went through the Silencer Shop’s kiosk. It took longer to fill out paperwork, submit fingerprints and photo than anything else. Literally Monday noon to the approval hitting my in-box at 5am Wednesday. As mentioned if you want one buy them now. No telling what the future holds and how...

    Suppressor Timetables

    So this past Monday @ noon we submitted our paperwork (form 4) to ATF. I was told there was nothing more to do, just wait. Today (Wednesday) I have an email saying my status has changed, I’m now “approved”. I’m assuming the LGS should be calling and tell me I’m good to come get my suppressor...

    Montana General Tag question

    Do you want to hunt together or separately ?? If in a group, apply as a group and all will get tags or no one will get tags. If you want to take your chances apply individually, then one, two, three or all may or may not draw a tag. With each person having two points you should all be able to...

    Ammo Suggestions

    So I went back to the range today. Continuing with their prescribed barrel break-in routine. I started with the Nosler ammo again and the 3 rounds all chambered with no problem. Still looking back they “feel” tight against the bolt. Then ran a brush and patch through the barrel and let it...

    I had already considered having to run ammo through the gun prior to going in the field. At the same time I consider that necessity unacceptable for a quality gun. Maybe old school but I consider reliability on par with accuracy. One without the other is useless.

    And that was my experience today. 12 rounds loaded no problem. Then the one. I have not checked the remaining 8, nor my second box.

    I tend to agree. Hence my reluctance to name names until I see how they handle it.

    Not sure if this is the right place for this but here goes… I have a new “high end” rifle. I was following the manufacturer‘s recommendation for breaking in the barrel. Out today and 12 shots into the procedure the bolt jams with a live round in it. Can’t close it nor open it. Safety on and...

    OnX Hunt hazy purple outlines ??

    So I’ve not noticed this before but on maps there are now irregular purple outlines randomly showing up in my screen. Anyone know what this is ?? Did I turn on a filter inadvertently ?? Or something new from a recent update ??

    Pack Covers

    I admit I don't want to put quite that much energy into something I hope not to need that often. Sounds like you have a well thought out plan.

    Pack Covers

    I have a KUIU pack. It looks like I will be getting into some rainy weather here soon. Wondering if 1) pack covers are worth it (do they do the job) and 2) is it worth it to get a brand specific cover ? I notice KUIU adds some features that would be usable (gun slot - but I'm bow hunting). This...
