    Would you buy this scope?

    I think enough of us videoed and posted some pretty brutal (overly hard surfaces) drop tests on the Maven that it’s hard to disregard. Now how many people actually watched those, probably like 5…

    KRG Echo - Sporterish version of bravo for tikkas

    More or less. I like the ergos of the Bravo, personally would like some additional weight for the 7PRC over OEM (prob even more than the Echo), I have a number of Tikka magnum magazines, it’s $300. Not sure if the lack of a flat rear will bother me or not, but willing to try it out. The 7PRC...

    KRG Echo - Sporterish version of bravo for tikkas

    Agree, I used a few spacers on the Bravo I have, but that was more a function of raising the butt pad above bore. LOP wasn’t the thought, but I’ll need them for the Echo.

    RokStok

    Just giving you crap. I had to swap some rings and decided to pick up the short bolt handle to try. Only 50 rounds or so with it. No stock (Rokstock) contact, but for me it requires the “crap claw” grip when manipulating bolt quickly. If you are inclined to use your middle finger as trigger...

    KRG Echo - Sporterish version of bravo for tikkas

    I don’t/would’t/have never cared; except the Rokstok/Tikka/Maven combo leaves me wanting another 1” on LOP.

    You are almost Rokslide approved, I don’t see the short bolt handles. Tikka/UM rings/Maven/suppressed.

    SW Colorado Forage

    Sent mine to them, sounds like it might be a year before I have it back and am able to comment further. Qouted $185 a ft to take from field skinned to finished, local guy was $250 ft (or more).

    Bring sharpener for fixed blade or ditch it for a Havalon?

    Used a cheap Morakniv last year (4 elk and a domestic pig) and was more than pleased with it, it was/is preferred over a nice custom tool steel knife/outdoor edge replaceable/ SV30 Bugout/ multiple different buck knives/etc that I've used in the past. I did carry and use a 1.5 oz fine grit stone...

    Lyontra member account hacked!

    Was thinking that ad was too good to be true. A local GS had a used Tikka 30-06 (blued) for $450 this am, I'm plum on Tikka actions for the moment and happy to point you to them.

    Bullet recommendations for 30-06 Elk

    I’d add the 165 TMK/168elm/eldx. They seems to shoot well out out the rifles I’ve tried them in. Just say NO to copper, small wound channels and often difficult to get to shoot well.

    Bino Decision One pair of 10x42 ELs or two pairs of Meoptas

    If you range animals for shots yes I would. I use 10x binos in timber, but every thing is a compromise. It cuts a lot of time off of the shot process, plus you said bears at longer distance.

    Bino Decision One pair of 10x42 ELs or two pairs of Meoptas

    Put ranging Binos as 1st priority, they are a game changer. Geovid R ranging binoculars are a good option at around $1200. Find used pair of Meoptas 15x and still it you price mark.
