    Gas gun or bolt gun

    I have always run bolt guns when hunting. I understand your reasoning for wanting a gas gun. If you're fine with carrying an AR-10 all day, good on you. If you are looking to split hairs and get a large caliber rifle but also want a gas gun, have you looked at the Noreen BN36XE or the Falkor...

    Suppressor Question

    I have used my Dead Air Sandman TI (direct thread) on a handful of rifles and I have noticed POI shifts when I am not running the can, its predictable and repeatable though. Just know where you're hitting at known distance both suppressed and unsuppressed. Attaching and re-attaching the can has...

    Chrono numbers higher than expected

    That was my course of action but wanted to check the Rokslide knowledge to see if these numbers sounded too outrageous. I don't have access to another chrono

    Chrono numbers higher than expected

    I tried out my new Caldwell chrono today. Yes, I know it's not a magneto and it's not high end. It functioned with no problems but the readings it was giving with several loads was considerably higher than anticipated. Examples: A 16" AR with basic 55gr FMJ factory ammo was shooting 2880fps. A...

    Colorado Elk 1st Rifle Unit 18 / 181

    I *had* that tag last year and CPW allowed me to swap to an OTC bull tag, just had to pay the difference. I scouted the unit a couple weeks before the fire kicked off. In my experience, 181 is full of hunters. I would say scout hard in both units and see what you find. I read somewhere that deer...

    I am new to pellet grills, which is the best one?

    I bought a Camp Chef Smoke Pro SG Wifi 24" last year. I have always had trouble with the WIFI working. The grill does the job but I don't love it. I can say Camp Chef customer service has been great, I just wish I didn't need the customer service. I am a little concerned about the amount of rust...

    $1,500-2,500 budget for a 300 win mag, what would you pick?

    Its not the $1500-$2500 rifle you mentioned but I have been really satisfied with my Browning X-Bolt Max Long Range. All I have done to it is add a Mcarbo trigger spring, 20 MOA rail, and glass. I think it was $1100 OTD before extras. The 1:8 twist is kind of unique, the mag box allows for...

    North/west Denver area handgun sight install?

    I lost my connection for sight sales/install due to them retiring. I am looking for someone or a business who can sell or install night sights on a Glock 9mm. Does anyone have someone they suggest or go to for this?

    Glock Night Sight Help

    I have always ordered through Optics Planet and Brownells for Glock night sights. The specific sights you're looking at are great, I have a similar set (green on green) on my G34. Try a quick search on gun.deals, maybe a smaller retailer has a deal available.

    Is ammo availability gonna affect your hunting season?

    @Rich M there is a guy in NW Denver who is selling cases of target 12ga ammo for $100/case. I linked it below. I am in the area if you need a local intermediary. DM me if this helps you. https://www.armslist.com/posts/13050661/denver-colorado-ammo-for-sale--12-gauge-target-ammo

    What length barrel are you running suppressed?

    I hunted last year with a 26" 300WM X-bolt and a Sandman TI direct thread. It was entirely too long and heavy.

    WTB ISO Zhukov Yugo Mounting Hardware

    Hey all! I managed to lose my mounting hardware for my Magpul Zhukov stock for my Yugo AK. Does anyone have a set they would be willing to part with or know where to get the screw/wedge piece(s)? I have tried contacting Magpul for replacement parts and haven't had much luck. Now all I have is...

    Christensen Arms or Browning Xbolt?

    I have an X-Bolt Max Long Range in 300WM. The factory magazine length allows me to seat my 212 ELD-X to 3.595" which is the longest I can seat and it feeds reliably. Unknown Munitions advertises their 215 Berger to 3.600" Can't speak to the CA but I can say that the X-bolt is a shooter. It is...

    300 Blkout Expansion / Hogs

    I hunt hogs with a 16" 300BO. My hog round is a 110gr Barnes TAC-TX pushed by 19.5gr Win 296. I have also run the 125gr Sierra Pro Hunter but tend to stick to the Barnes. They are pricey but I only shoot a couple mags of this load a year. I have stretched out to 250yds with it and wouldn't go...

    Favorite 300 Win round

    My X-bolt Max Long Range has a 1:8 twist and shoots 212 ELD-X well. 76.1gr H1000, 215M Primer, 3.595" COAL. Ammo scarcity makes reloading attractive

    Ccw belt

    I have been through a few. I tried a couple of the 5.11 leather belts but they each wore out in a year or so. It pains me to say that as a 5.11 fanboy. Ares makes good stuff. My current is a Bravo Concealment and its a solid belt- over two years of regular use and it is still as stiff (no sag)...

    2020 Load Development

    I have been working on a load for my 300WM Browning X-bolt Max Long Range. Recipe looks like.... Hornady Brass (I am not going to break out the ADG brass til I run out of this batch) Fed 215M primers 74.0-78.0gr H1000 (no pressure signs at 78.0 even though its listed as a max load) 212gr ELD-X...
