My rifle scope saga continues…
I used to try to do this before FFP was a common thing for hunting scopes. It sucked. Would not recommend it. -

Would you buy this scope?
I’m curious what your motivation is for posting on this site since you seem to know all the answers to everything and yet don’t seem to provide any useful information for anything. It appears you just like being a shit-stirring internet troll. That seems like a pretty sad existence. But you get... -

Do you take your suppressor off?
Since I started using suppressors, all my barrels are less than 20”. -

My rifle scope saga continues…
I think we can get focused on our own areas and how we hunt. Spotting your shots is dependent on your equipment, but it’s also range dependent. It’s a lot easier in the west where much of the country is more open and ranges for shots tend to be longer. If you’re an eastern forest hunter and your... -

My rifle scope saga continues…
I have a buddy who says that and shoots a light magnum rifle with a 6-24x scope. He also says he’s never been able to see where his shots hit and doesn’t know where the critter goes after the shot unless he is way out on the flat prairie and it has no where to hide. It all works fine until it... -

Heavy Bolt lift on Tikka 6.5
I chuckle about these arguments. In general, if someone claims a group is out to get them or that there is some sort of overarching conspiracy, it’s generally because they are unable to logically support their own arguments. -

NF are durable scopes you can count on. I would be interested to hear how much you end up using the top end magnification. I tend to like it on paper at the range, but don’t ever seem to use it in field practice or hunting. My scopes usually stay on 6x and rarely get turned up above 8-10x. Lower... -

Heavy Bolt lift on Tikka 6.5
I agree that the OPs’s problem is likely related to an issue with the ammo. I haven’t cleaned a centerfire rifle bore in six years and have one suppressor with more than 2500 rounds through it that has never been cleaned. Never seen a problem chambering ammo or accuracy in a factory barrel. Only... -

GPO CENTURI - Lightweight FFP
Looked the website. Interested. Weight looks awesome and the price is very reasonable. Reticle makes me wonder why they wouldn’t make the outer part solid to see better at low magnification. Still interested. Would love to see what happens when it’s dropped like a hot rock while attached to a rifle. -

brownells howa 1500 16 inch heavy barrel
Second what @hereinaz said about weight and refinement with the Tikka, and will add that the Tikka is a much more reliable action in tough conditions. The Howa has a lot more pathways for ingress of water, ice, and debris into the action than a Tikka (although the fluted bolt Tikkas are not... -

Tikka Roughtech or Bergara Carbon Wilderness
You dislike something apparently because some undefined group of others like it, despite the fact that you have no experience with the thing. But someone you know and claim to be a respected authority but refuse to identify also dislikes the thing. Did I interpret that correctly? -

Tikka Roughtech or Bergara Carbon Wilderness
I have multiple T3x lites and run suppressors on all of them without any problems. I am not a fan of the roughtech or ember versions primarily because the fluted bolt provides an extra pathway for the ingress of dirt and debris into the action. I also don’t need or want the slightly heavier... -

A Giraffe with a 6UM
My question was intended to solicit positive feedback. If you do not like how it was documented, how should it have been done? I think that recording it and posting it the way he did substantially increased the viewership and discussion about it. You can’t ever expect all discussion to be... -

A Giraffe with a 6UM
I’m curious what you think would be a good look? Change the caliber, change the animal, ditch the camera, ditch the crocs? It’s easy to find fault, but positive feedback is always more helpful. I think Ryan was legit trying to test the dogma that we all hear about ballistics and bullet... -

A Giraffe with a 6UM
Agree wholeheartedly with this. All this stuff about, “not appropriate for African-hunting” is a red herring that distracts from the fact that this whole thing is about how effective smaller fragmenting bullets can be on large animals.
