    Q&A for Athlon Helos BTR Gen 2 2-12x42mm Field Eval

    Nice glad to see it’s holding up well as a moderately priced general use scope.

    Q&A for Athlon Helos BTR Gen 2 2-12x42mm Field Eval

    Do you know the 10+ shot cone of that load and rifle? It looks like it’s zeroed still but with all shots landing right of center it’s hard to tell with only 3

    Joseph von Benedikt vs Formidilosus

    JVB’s brother AVB shot at a BOAL and proved that large cartridges and unreliable scopes cause disasters in the field. Hopefully when he goes after his ROAL he’ll use a RSS shooting TMKs with an SWFA so he won’t be SOL. Man I spend to much time on this website

    Robby's building a 6UM!

    I’ve been on the fence about suppressors for the last few years and still haven’t been able to talk myself into or out of one. I imagine I’ll own one eventually to try out. However I refuse to have a muzzle break on my rifles.

    Bear Defense Sidearm for Small Hands

    Why not stick with the pistols you already have? You say you compete in pistol matches so I would say go with what you’re comfortable with as accuracy and confidence may trump all should you need to use it. However I have never seen a grizzly in person nor do I live in grizzly country so I don’t...

    Robby's building a 6UM!

    I don’t even own a suppressor however with just foam plugs in most muzzle breaks will still cause permanent hearing loss

    Yeah I’ve got a maven now and it’s worked very well. I keep hoping maven will come out with a version with a ballistic solver

    Vortex Razor 4000GB Initial Impression

    Would love to hear how it does in the cold. The only vortex rangefinder I’ve had was a decoration piece under about 40 degrees but it was a pretty cheap unit and years ago.

    6.5 Elk bullet

    Whenever you have a conundrum like this you have to ask yourself one question. Which one sounds cooler when you tell your buddy’s what you used?

    It’s amazing how this guy can continue to get so close, yet still not get it.

    Tikka 6.5 Creed rechambered to PRC

    This is your best option right here. I did the same thing and don’t regret it at all. A tikka in 6.5cm, a good scope, and as much ammo as you can afford. Nothing that you are going to shoot will survive a 140 eldm in the chest.

    Silencerco Harvester Evo feedback

    I believe there was a recall issued for the evo for a certain serial number range. May be worth looking into if you’re considering it.

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    In regards do Alaskans killing bears with 223 fmjs regularly how is the wound channel being created? Is the bullet tumbling? Is it traveling fast enough that it causes fragmentation despite being an fmj? It seems kind of contradictory to this thread that a 22 cal fmj could create a large enough...

    Long range scope of your choice for under $1,000?

    I have one on an xbolt and love it. It’s a little bulky but it can’t be beat for the price. I got a 3-18 tenmile when they went on sale over Christmas and the tenmile is a little sleeker which I like, however it is not worth almost double the price. Eyebox, glass, depth of field, etc all feel...

    SWFA 3-9x42 SS HD Test?

    I don’t think an official test has been posted however it has been used and abused by a dozen+ members and by all account is a very usable and reliable scope.
