    What's the compromise caliber?

    7mm08, 270win, 308win and 30-06. Fuddy I know but ammo availability and bullet type/weight is really good compared to most cartridges talked about on this site these days. Will kill to 300yds and beyond. Fairly mild recoil, tons of rifle options, tons of reloading options. They’ve been good...

    .308 for Elk

    If your aren’t shooting past 300yds is there even a point to go to a 7prc or similar?

    Do you hunt solo or as a group?

    90% of the time I’m alone. I like hunting with friends and family but I find hunting solo pretty peaceful.

    Did you switch cartridge when you rebarreled? Very nice rifle.

    Your first deer rifle?

    For some reason my tikka guy seems to have a hard to time getting and/or keeping a 308 in stock. That’ll be a great for most thing rifle.

    Your first deer rifle?

    7mm08 or 7 rem mag? Either way it’s a tikka so it’ll be good to you. Get a limbsaver. Your shoulder will thank you. sku #10826 I believe.

    Give me some tips on hammock camping

    I’ve have 50+ degree night in the BWCA of MN that’s were very chilly without a underquilt. I use a traditional self inflating pad with no real issues. Ps sleeping on the ground sucks!

    Give me some tips on hammock camping

    Sleep diagonally rather than inline with the trees. Causes you to lay flatter and not banana shaped.

    Give me some tips on hammock camping

    I prefer a sleep pad and a underquilt. I tie a little piece of paracord on rope going to the trees on each end so rainwater hit the tassle and drips away. If not the water travel down the whole rope and your soaked.

    Turkey choke constriction question.

    I’ve always had the shooting bug and have been reloading rifle ammunition for 3-4 years now. So know I’m playing the how to make this rifle shoot best game. I have all the equipment to reload shotgun shells so I could see myself going down the custom turkey load hole. But that after I figure out...

    Turkey choke constriction question.

    I intend to order online. I’m just coming around to the idea of TSS and this is what I can get on the way home today. Grab a box see if this choke likes TSS. Then see what I can get online. I’m coming to this conclusion. Picked up some longboard 6s I’m going to try. One gun liked the 5s the...
