    Best scope under $1000

    For hunting, I wouldn't own anything that doesn't dial down to 3X and have a strong preference for SFP. Both of these are for fast target acquisition and a clear reticle at lower mag.

    H414 to Win760 in 7-08?

    I used the last of a can of H414 with 150 ELDX for my 7-08 Tikka. Good velocity and accuracy out of a 20" suppressed barrel. I bought Win760 on sale based upon internet lore saying it's the same as H414 but my Hornady manual says otherwise. Anybody loading the 7-08 using Win760 for 150 ELDX and...

    Bozeman area cut and thread smith

    I drove my two Tikkas to Sandpoint on my way to Seattle. Picked them up on a return trip a few weeks later. Saved me probably $100 or more in shipping.

    The good old days

    I was just in a shop in WA that had RL17...I think four 1lb cans... Anybody want to guess the price? Don't forget to add 10.25% tax for the privilege of living in Jay Inslee's utopia.

    Stuff overheard at the range or local gun shop

    Not necessarily. Just like the Harley crowd with their costumes and loud exhaust. They are going out trying to provoke a response and that attempt at intimidation doesn't always go the way they hoped it would.

    Stuff overheard at the range or local gun shop

    Reminds me of the sketchy kids driving driving around in ratty Tacomas with a giant GLOCK PERFECTION decal in the rear window. I was brought up in a culture where people would say 'If you have to advertise....?'

    Stuff overheard at the range or local gun shop

    For the record, I have owned firearms and been involved in sport shooting and hunting since I was 5...55 years. It's not so much that people choose to open carry, it's the circumstances under which they do and also, having walked this earth for 60 years, I have learned to read people for cues as...

    6mm creedmoor twist rate

    My CZ 600 Range is 1:7 and shoots up to 112gr really well. I wouldn't want anything slower.

    Considering Switching to Full Synthetic Oil

    I had the coolant and oil lines replaced when I had my 3.5 Eco manifolds done at 163k. The tubes and filters were much cleaner than I or the mechanic expected. Maybe towing or hot environment would have a different result. I loosely stick to the display OCI. Generally 2X/yr.

    Hearing protection at the range

    My son directed me to Decibulz. You mold and fit them and the inner plug with the molded flange blocks sound better than any other plug I've found. I doubled up silicon plugs with 30db muffs and still hated being hear the flash hider/brake crowd. My old range considered banning braked rifles to...

    Truck tire question for you all

    Anybody else noticing that every new AT tire that comes out (Cooper, BFG) is a direct copy of the Falken AT3w? I got 77k on my last set of Falkens and they were used on some pretty harsh cobble and basalt.

    Truck Brakes?

    I would not use drilled rotors for a truck application. Brake rotors are heat sinks and removing metal only serves to reduce the mass and surface area. Also, if a rotor is drilled and not chamfered correctly, it introduces an area for potential cracks to form. Drilled rotors on a truck are more...

    Considering Switching to Full Synthetic Oil

    When I had a Tacoma, I was surprised how small the filter was...Same part# as Tundra. I did some research on the drainback pressure valve and matched up a Wix/Napa Gold part that had over 150% more media than the Toyota spec and ran that for over 100k. Did my own oil changes at around 7500...
