    Stock vs Chassis for Field Shooting

    I've been going back and forth between soley using a rokstock or adding a rifle in an XLR I haven't built out yet (may sell it), bumping this again for some more opinions.

    Pack/Gear Shakedown

    Haven't the replies but here's my $.02 based on your first post and the gear list. 1) Do you need the pack lid? I almost never use mine (k3 3200), but if you need the space you need the space 2) Forget the gopro unless you are already familiar with it. As someone who is pretty familiar with...

    Your first deer rifle?

    I haven’t shot it much in probably 5 or 6 years. Probably whatever 243 load was cheapest and in stock at Walmart.

    Your first deer rifle?

    Tang saftey M77 in 243 with a redfield wide field scope and the stock shortened. Still trying to figure out how to put that rifle back into the rotation.

    XLR Atom Chassis with Bipod and Backpack?

    Don’t have one but went through this as I tried to decide on a chassis. The weight difference in the atom and the element is so negligible I decided to get the element just for a bit more flexibility. Even though they are very light, a chassis is not going to be the lightest option so you may as...

    Ruger American vs Howa barreled action

    As a 6.5 Grindel owner, I would get a 6arc. You really can’t squeeze much more bullet weight into a 6.5 grendel than the 6 and you loose the BC.

    SWFA 3-15 TO84 or UM ring height

    So the sportsmatch medium is lower than the UM lows? Any idea how the sportsmatch highs line up to the UM medium?

    Lightest Rifle Possible

    for an UL rifle, unless you have a specific need for a large caliber, I think something like 6mm arc, 223, 22arc, etc is probably perfect. Great ballistics out to as much range as anyone has business shooting a super light rifle, and won't beat you to death. Counterpoint is the UL brush gun for...

    Lightest Rifle Possible

    I think there are a few sub 5lb scoped kimbers out there on the forum. I have a howa mini scoped with a supressor at 5.7lbs. You definitely loose some capability once you get below 6-7lbs (not including a supressor). A reliable scope is going to be close to a pound by itself. Use the search...

    Dear Tikka….if you’re listening.

    Shorten the barrels a few inches while you’re at it. I could totally see them just making a “supressor ready” line with 16-20” threaded barrels and charging 50-100$ more for them. Would be perfect

    Dear Tikka….if you’re listening.

    Unfortunately when tikka makes a barrel/caliber that is what the market wants, they also put it in a *painted* tupperwear stock and charge double for it.

    T1x scope mount?

    Dang. I was hoping it was the same rail- I already have extra tikka rings.

    T1x scope mount?

    Anyone with a T1x care to enlighten me on scope mount options? Does it have the same rail and taps that the t3x has or does it require different mounts? Any options on a pic rail and rings vs integrated mounts? I typically prefer integrated mounts/rings when possible.

    Money Saving Tips / Ideas

    Im no expert, but I expect you would just pay the flat rate for every line. There are no discounts at all as far as i am aware, just 25$ a line (if you pay annually) While we are on saving money, hit me up if you want a referral. Both parties get $20.

    I have not run into the roaming issue whatsoever in the US. Most years I make probably 10+ trips outside a 100 mile radius of my home and haven’t had any issues with coverages. That being said I have never tried to use my service outside of the country so I can’t speak to that.
