    Robby's building a 6UM!

    Jesus. Go shoot out in an open field. Completely different experience.

    30-06 for everything????

    So it’s temp sensitive huh? I read what I could online and some said it’s not that bad, but 150fps swing is huge. Crap. I was shooting at 90+ degrees. I have a nice load with RE17 but I only have so much left and I can’t find any to save my life. Got another powder recommendation that’s more...

    30-06 for everything????

    Looks like it. Time to make a whole batch, zero with a 10 round group and start shooting out to 1k and fine tune the dope.

    Tikka super light 243 issue?

    Does it only feel right with a cartridge? Meaning not cycling empty.

    30-06 for everything????

    Took the chopped tikka 30-06 out today for load testing. I was doing 3 shot ladders using 178gr ELDM and Super Performance powder… this looks like a good load. 2820 fps out of the 20” suppressed, below book max:

    Need help solving Bear Creek Arsenal 350 Legend jamming

    The problem is Bear Creek Arsenal. They are junk. They are cheap for a reason. I could help diagnose any AR problem, but with BCA components, my first answer is to get rid of the BCA components, at least the barrel. Starting here eliminates the most likely variable and will save time, ammo and...

    Two Rifle Setup - What Would You Do?

    Why? The 6.5 PRC is so close that seems redundant.

    Two Rifle Setup - What Would You Do?

    Agreed. If you want to hunt other states do the 6mm. If not, the 22CM would be sweet in a light weight system.

    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44 new model

    What action is that?

    Cutting a tikka barrel

    You’ll likely have to develop a new load like others said due to harmonics. However, mine I just chopped still liked the same load, but that’s not a given at all.

    Scope mounting: Please pardon my ignorance...

    I prefer pic rail for the flexibility of ring placement on the scope body. I try to center the rings on the tube as best as possible, then use the pic rail slots to adjust for eye relief.

    Scope selection - Tikka T3X Roughtech Ember 308 20”

    For a 2nd FFP scope, I just my first Leica Amplus and it looks pretty nice. Reticle at 2.5x looks usable and the illumination works better than the Maven. I wish it wasn’t a Xmas tree reticle but with the illuminated dot and being 2ffp, it appears like it would work for jump shooting. I say...

    The Phenomenon Of Guns or Scopes Shooting Loose

    Blue locktite with the little amount of torque on rings (20ish in/lbs) shouldn’t require any heat to break loose. If there is ever a need to heat, a soldering iron placed right on the bolt works well.

    The Phenomenon Of Guns or Scopes Shooting Loose

    I’m sure I have but can’t think of a specific incident off the top of my head. What I have seen/experienced more often is scope slippage in the rings. Subtle slippage over time. A few years back there was about a 3-4 year period where myself with a group of guys shot almost every weekend and...

    Middle aged guy struggling to drop a few lbs in the belly area

    I don’t disagree, however I felt like crap and my lifts went down on keto. I’m not arguing, just sharing why I stopped keto. Plus it’s really challenging to maintain. But my goals haven’t been “weight loss”, but rather strength/hypertrophy and overall fitness level.

    WTS 7PRC Tikka Action, C6 Barrel, XLR, hand loads, Maven RS1.2, etc.

    If it doesn’t sell as is, I would buy that scope and rings combo.

    Tikka build or Seekins Havak element

    I am not saying the Seekins is bad in anyway. I simply don’t like the stock feel (the plastic feel and the palm swell is weird in my hand). Small things, but I prefer the feel of the Manners EH1, so for me tikka. I like the bolt throw and available bolt knobs for the tikka tikka too… so I guess...

    Middle aged guy struggling to drop a few lbs in the belly area

    I’m in the same boat as the OP. I work out and am in great shape but have some lower belly fat that simply doesn’t go away. I just accepted it and stay focused on my routine. I don’t want to engage in hormone therapy; contemporary medicine has made it seem like no big deal, but hormones are a...
