    Vivo forest tracker esc durability

    That's a very interesting video and I can personally attest to at least some of what he says. I think everyone who has taken off through their house at a sprint in their socks can at some level identify with some of that content if they stop and think about it. Thanks for sharing that. I'll...

    Vivo forest tracker esc durability

    I got my first pair of more minimal shoes (which still had some hard arch support) and went for a two mile run immediately like I did with conventional trail runners. Didn’t go well and spent a couple of months recovering from it. My feet had no strength in supporting the arches and got hurt...

    Vivo forest tracker esc durability

    I didn’t follow their guide, and went with the size I’m accustomed to which was bigger. Resulted in them being too big, but kept them and wear them in the cold with Heavy socks and they’re perfect for that role.

    I certainly didn't take it as seriously as you present it there; I realize you just intended it as a quip. I'm just advocating for more objective discussion which requires setting aside personal and emotional tendencies. Easier said than done, I admit, as I'm guilty of the same.

    Vote - MOA or MIL

    My perspective is that neither Form, myself, or anyone else advocating for one side of this current discussion is bullying anyone else. It would be one thing if most people on this forum grew up with mils and stuck to it simply because of familiarity or dogma. I suspect most like me came from...

    Vote - MOA or MIL

    I think the greater point here is that if you think in terms of angular measurement, which you can always reference by simply looking at your reticle, the units you choose become arbitrary. You can use a centimeter, 3.6 inches, or 2.3 tiddlywinks at 100 yards/meters if you want to convey linear...

    6.5 Creedmoor on Elk?

    I can attest to full penetration of groundhogs with every 77tmk, 140 ELD, and 143 ELD-X i've ever used. I knew if i watched this thread long enough I'd be able to contribute!

    Barrel break in, does it matter?

    Yep. Short Action Customs trued a Tikka T3X and put on a heavy barrel in 6.5 Creedmoor for me.

    Barrel break in, does it matter?

    250ish rounds down a new Bartlein tube. I’ll be better about progress on this one since I have a lot of components dedicated to it exclusively. No break in, no cleaning, just pushed a couple of patches down the barrel when I got it to make sure there wasn’t debris in there for what that’s...

    Q&A for SWFA SS 6x MQ Field Eval

    Thanks for trying. Think I’ll leave good enough alone with the 6Xs. If I’m not careful, I’ll take something that’s not broke and fix it until it’s broken.

    Q&A for SWFA SS 6x MQ Field Eval

    I really don't want to go down another scope rabbit trail. I'm working hard to resist the urge as well. @Castle Rock , share your gift. We know you're a man of few words.

    Let's See Your Semi-Custom Tikka Builds

    I say encase the lug with bedding in the traditional manner and be done with it. I think @Castle Rock has some good photos

    I can't believe you got rid of it. You could have won money shooting competition with it.

    I hate to be the non-conformist, but i'm questioning my purchase of a LabRadar. Don't get me wrong, if you're a tinkerer (which I am) it's fun stuff. But I can't be intellectually honest in saying that It's a game changer. If I could go back, I'd probably spend the money on a barrel or...

    Painless load development (mine)

    Listen ol'son. Thats a Tikka T3x that Short Action Customs had in house that they trued and spun a bartlein 1:7 on (thats what they had, and this was started about a year ago when they had no idea when they'd get another blank in.). 140s may show more promise. I'll try and post as I go...

    Definitely nice if you're hustling to keep up with the powder dispenser. I rock the Saturns but those corrugations sometimes trap powder depending on what I'm charging.
