    Bighorn Origin Ejector removal

    I have taken several out with no issues. I would try to get some lube in there or blow it out with compressed air.

    .223 for bear, deer, elk and moose.

    I just put a new 8 twist 700 223 together also. The rifle shoots great and I'm sure yours will too. My own personal experience trumps someone's opinion on the internet.

    What do you mean by this comment? Are you saying that a remington 700 isn't worth having?

    Let’s see your Remington 700 builds

    I already had the adl stock so I bought a new 223 with a 1-8 twist and had it cut to 20 inches. It's my new favorite rifle to shoot. Shoots 68 grain hornady bthp with varget pretty good.

    Let’s see your Remington 700 builds

    Thanks, I don't know if you will see a benefit from truing. I do recommend Greg at Southern Precision Rifles and Tooter at Meredith Rifles for any work that you need done.

    I would make sure the barrel is free floating and go hunt.

    Applied Ballistics vs Hornady BCs

    I usually pick the middle g7 that Hornady publishes and just shoot. Works pretty good across several rifles.

    Hornady BTHP for Hunting

    I killed 10+ whitetails with a 105 out of a 8 twist 243 win. Longest shot was 525 yards.

    My gun started punching primers

    Check your bolt face for damage also.

    Suppressor mounts

    I have thousands of rounds through direct thread suppressors and never had an issue. My Omega has many ten round strings through it from match shooting and the blast baffle looks great. I have never had one come loose either. I use thread adapters to go from 1/2-28 to 5/8-24 and just leave them...

    New Ti Suppressor from Silencerco

    It is 8.3 ounces including the direct thread adapter. The front brake weighed 1.1 ounce. You could replace it with a ti one and be under 8 ounces total. @Tod osier

    New Ti Suppressor from Silencerco

    That is a ti end cap but it does have the steel direct thread adapter in it. I probably need to soak it longer next time.

    New Ti Suppressor from Silencerco

    This was my Omega right after cleaning, probably still heavier than brand new.

    New Ti Suppressor from Silencerco

    My Evo weighs 13.5 ounces with the included 5/8-24 adapter vs 8.3 ounces for the scythe. I like my Evo and Omega but the scythe is half the weight of my Omega.
