    Did this scope have a good reputation for tracking and zero retention?

    Paradox: Minimalist Winter Boots + brief reviews

    I have been looking at those. Was sizing atypical for you? Using their online picture app they're recommending a size smaller than I ever wear.

    Missing Rifle Scope Features?

    I just finished binge watching THLR's videos on the reticle too. I'd like to amend my previous statement to wanting FFP and a THLR reticle in my NXS.

    Missing Rifle Scope Features?

    The quick answer is: I want to use the scope at mag levels other than 10x, and I’m prioritizing retaining my wind holds and maintaining my sight picture through recoil over magnification. I do struggle to do this with a T3X tikka lite in 6.5CM on 10x, but I’m also a lightweight. ultimately I...

    Question about Primers....

    I've run CCI 450s in my 6.5 CM under H4350 and RL16 to great success. Send'em, dude.

    Solve my velocity ES issue please!

    Your precision in your reloading process is impressive. However I'm going to go against the precision route to some degree. The following is based off the assumption that your powder measures are precise and accurate. My experience has been that 90% of the reloading game revolves around the...

    Barrel break in, does it matter?

    Tikka 6.5 CM Got some Reloder 16 in a couple of weeks ago. Drug this gun out today after sitting in the safe for about 6 months. This one has had over 7 lbs of H4350 (over 1100 rounds) through it without cleaning. Only 5 rounds, but seems ok to me. Went on to hammer steel to 650 yards with...

    Barrel break in, does it matter?

    I for one appreciate both Form's and Frank's contributions to this subject. I also appreciate Form sharing his methods, materials and results. At least I have a way to assess the validity of what he shares. That being said, I would really like to see the performance of the test barrels that...

    Barrel break in, does it matter?

    Tikka factory 223. I’m not suggesting cleaning is out, but this is a group from a known load after well over 3k rounds without any cleaning. It’s shooting this load as good or better than when I first tried it which was within the barrel’s first 300 rounds

    Yes. It’s goofy for sure.

    Equipment versus practice posts and Rifle practice/shooting

    It’s technically not adjustable, just offset. I used an aftermarket Limbsaver air tech pad, but I’m sure you could do the same with the factory pad. I simply drilled new holes in the buttpad and used the same screws that are holding the factory pad on to make it index higher. Fun fact...

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    Not bear, deer, elk, or moose, but its still data. Handy having a light recoiling, fast cycling bolt gun this morning. All three shots were 150-170 yards which gives about 2400-2440 fps at impact with my 77 TMK load. double lung, no shoulder Through vertebrae, 7” channel length
