    Any drone/RPA operators on here?

    I have a couple of the cheap recreational Chinese drones. They were fun at first but it’s kinda run its course for me. They are fairly dummy proof these days, easy to operate. One of mine did a crazy Ivan full speed into the water for some reason, probably having to do with the fact that it is...

    Lapping "High end" scope rings?

    Like I’ve said before, no need to argue about lapping. It’s your bent scope. [emoji1]

    Some of the custom assemblers machine the action face and use a Remington style lug. I think it’s a solution looking for a problem but some swear by it. The steel Tikka lug seems a little hokey it works great. Some of the early ones were aluminum and would deform over time.

    Barrel installation?

    Whatever grease I have on the bench, very lightly. No need to geek out on torque values. Tight enough not to shoot loose is sufficient. You aren’t going to tighten it past the shoulder. I like to screw them in and out several times snapping them against the shoulder by hand before I tighten...

    I’ve always gotten good service from Stockys. It’s a different world these days, I cannot imagine what it must be like to effectively herd all the cats around to get out an acceptable product. Lack of labor, volatile material costs, freight, overhead, all out of control. Best thing is to be...

    18" barrel restricted or non restricted?

    It’s easy if you have a factory rifle as they have an approved list. Never considered the custom aspect. Good idea to have a paper trail. Even at that, ultimate authority lies with the border agent. I’ve found them to be reasonable over the years. Our guys could take a lesson.

    Potential Blasphemy - Modifying/Replacing Barrett Fieldcraft Stock

    Modifications would be considered blasphemy, yes, and you would most assuredly perish in flame for doing so. I’d recommend a different stock.

    Best caliber and bullet for African Hunt

    Bear in mind that you may end up having to buy or borrow ammo if yours gets lost. I wouldn’t bring a PRC anything to SA. Bring a 30-06, 300WM, etc.

    CPW officially recommends fully limiting NR Archery- OTC Resident

    Exactly. Limit all methods. Manage for a quality herd, not $$$ in the coffers over in Denver.

    I got mine used and it has a ton of miles on it. No idea when the shocks were rebuilt.
