    6mm arc build Howa Mini or buy complete

    Mine is cut to 17.75" from the crown to the interface of the action. 37" overall. Here is my chart from the Shooter app for 3500ft and 50 degrees for factory 108 ELDM that is verified with hits to 600 yards. If I change to 8000ft DA and 50F I get 1834FPS at 600 yards. I built this for exactly...

    Pic Rail on VG2 fore end suggestions?

    I have a VG2 on a Howa Mini barreled action. I would like to put a pic rail in the place of the fore end sling swivel to use pic mounted bipod. The adapter type rails I have tried won't work well due to the extreme curve the VG2 fore end has. Has anyone mounted a pic rail there in a manner that...

    6mm arc build Howa Mini or buy complete

    Reporting back on this. Archery got in the way but antelope rifle is in two weeks so.... It worked. twisted the elevation down the Mil equivalent of 20 MOA and I was within 1" of center at 100 yards. Rezero'd the rifle and took it out to 550 and 600. Easily got the 4.7 Mil needed to hit 600...

    How much does elevation change POI

    BDC holds...first time shooting at elevation...first time shooting elk...600 yards... What could possibly go wrong? Keep your shots to well under 400 yards. Just get closer. It's not that hard with elk.

    Reticle Movement when Shooting

    Zoom way out. Like...wayyy out. Try 4-800 at 6-8x. Try 100y at 4-6. As said above, stop shooting at small spot targets. Shoot at a big square or circle and let your brain do the work to find center. Your brain will subconsciously put the center of the reticle in the center of the larger target...

    The Rokslide Stock Traders Thread

    The market trends up because of a few great companies. A ton of companies (all of these penny stocks) are dogs.

    Or stop trading junk. Penny stocks are cheap for a reason.

    Are lightweight baselayer bottoms a waste?

    I don't wear liners if it's warm. Why would I want MORE material on my body when it's warm? I don't start the day in liners if the morning is over mid 30s. I might not wear them if the morning is 30 if I know the sun is coming out and it's getting into the 60s and I have a decent hike to start...

    SWFA 6x failure

    Ukraine will definitely win the war if they have SWFA 6x42s on their rifles. Zero question. :ROFLMAO:

    SWFA 6x failure

    Again. Hilarious. This has been two years at this point. How long does it take to make some scopes? Not 2 years for sure. Actions speak louder than rumors.

    SWFA 6x failure

    SWFA looks to be out of every scope but the Ultralights. The fact that people still think they are coming out with new scopes or that you will be able to replace your 6x that breaks is hilarious. They are just selling stock on hand with zero intention of replacing anything.

    Are lightweight baselayer bottoms a waste?

    I use light bottoms so I can leave them on most of the day. As western hunters I find we are either moving or sitting and either will be for a while. So when moving, I need the sweat to wick, like you are saying. When still, like for glassing, I will just throw on my zip around puffy pants...

    Camper shell buildout

    I use my Roll-a-cot with the older version of this pad. Talk about comfy. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09WB6J98W/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1

    Camper shell buildout

    Roll-a-cot since it only has two legs and will clear the wheel well. Then just use clear bins. Building something heavy that is a PITA to remove makes no sense for occasional use. Also, Bedrug. 100% Bedrug. I use the one without sides now. I will never have another truck with a topper without...

    Would you buy this scope?

    But can we not call it the RokScope. The fanboy crap is lame.

    Would you buy this scope?

    Is this a joke? This exact list is what a lot of us ask for ALL the time. A Leupy Mark4 that works. So, yes. Yes I would be a buyer and yes I would recommend it to everyone that would listen.

    Why?

    Another day of working from the phone. A little computer work right after dropping my kids at school taking advantage of the massive drop the market had off the open. Then ran to the unit where my son has a bull tag to more our canvas tent to a different area before the weekend. Just doing dad...
