    Best gasoline stabilizer

    Check out K100. It worked the best by far in Snowmobiles. I now use it in everything.

    Is a 6.5 PRC enough? Do I need a 7mm?

    Off a bench, I am not recoil sensitive. Off of sticks, on a tripod, or even in any odd position in a blind, I do not enjoy shooting the 30-06 or a bigger gun. The gun flys off the sticks or bounces around. I like shooting a 6 Creedmoor the best and having drunk the Rokslide Koolaid, I am moving...

    Is a 6.5 PRC enough? Do I need a 7mm?

    I love small and fast. I have a 6 UM on order. I am just confused by my Elk guide and the PH for next year in Africa is dead set against a 6.5 PRC or the 6 UM. I guess I will show him Ryan's Giraffe story. Always looking for an excuse to get another rifle. In fact I have a base Tikka 7 rem mag...

    Is a 6.5 PRC enough? Do I need a 7mm?

    I recently shot my first Elk. The guide insisted I use a .30 cal instead of my 6.5 PRC. I obliged with my 30-06 Tikka. The big bull went 3 steps. Great day. It started me thinking about cartridges. My 6.5 PRC is a Proof Elevation MTR 24" bbl. For me, It is the most accurate rifle I own. It...

    Is a 5" suppressor perfect for the 22CM?

    Silencerco sells Titanium front caps that eliminate the front ports make it slightly shorter and supposedly make the Scythe even quieter. They sell the front cap in a .223 bore size as well as a .30 cal. Has anyone tried this? Since the Scythe is shorter and lighter, albeit larger in diameter...

    TIKKA Stainless - Phasing it out?

    Unknown Munitions has high quality machining and will do cut and thread for $135. Their price on return freight is a little high but they are an excellent value. If you are shipping a barreled action, get a small 4"x 4" box less than 30" long and you can ship it very cheaply using...

    TIKKA Stainless - Phasing it out?

    The T3x Lite is carbon steel with blueing. The Roughtech is a carbon steel action and carbon steel D18 barrel with Cerakote. The Veil series and the D18 series from Bass Pro are all stainless with Cerakote. The Roughtech is not a bad value if you consider the cost of the cerakote job, fluted D18...

    RokStok

    Backfire just tested a Howa 1500 Superlite. The used it to design a Backstop recoil pad that fits the Stocky's Stock that comes with the rifle. I had a hunch and called Stockys to verify. The limbsaver 5/8" recoil pad is exactly the same as it is on the Rokstok. If anyone wants a really high...

    Which Bullets to use? ELD-m "Murder bullets" for everything?

    It was my fault for bringing up Ryan and his desire to shoot a giraffe. You are at the core of my question and what I was really trying to ask. I always have ELD-m around for my 6 and 6.5 Creed as well as my 6.5 PRC, 308, 30-06, and 300PRC. They shoot great in all my rifles. Inside 200 yards I...

    Are the UM Tikka action lightening cuts a good idea for a 6 UM or 6.5 PRC?

    There is a nice 1/2" - 5/8" adapter listed on their site. I assume Red loctite makes it essentially permanent.

    Best caliber and bullet for African Hunt

    Florida allows harvesting Turkey with a rifle. I have a rifle range on the cattle ranch my friend and I own. I was out with my favorite rifle, a 6 mm Creedmoor, shooting from a bench. I noticed a nice gobbler in the pasture. Ranged him at 267 yards. Made a good shot taking out the undercarriage...

    Are the UM Tikka action lightening cuts a good idea for a 6 UM or 6.5 PRC?

    I got it for fun on the last 2 and to support UM in their unique endeavors. Good idea on the barrel size but I think the Ace #3 is the smallest you can get and still get the 5/8" 24 thread for a suppressor.

    Are the UM Tikka action lightening cuts a good idea for a 6 UM or 6.5 PRC?

    True enough. Generally just looking for comments about the Tikka action cuts.
