    5.56 in a 223 Tikka T3x?

    I have hundreds of rounds through my 223 tikka. I have never put an actual 223 round in it, only 5.56 x 45. Never even close to a problem. Ryan

    Binos for my soon to be 8 year old.

    Thanks for all the advice!! I ended up getting the diamondback hd 8x32. I liked them way more than the 8x28. I ended up buying them from a local camera place that was great!!! Can’t wait for my little buddy to open them!! Ryan

    Florida keys fishing charter recommendations?

    There are several places that rent boats down there, I have rented from 5 or 6 places, I have not had a bad experience from any of them. They have all been great to deal with. I typically rent from whoever is closest to where we are staying. I always try and stay at a place with a place to keep...

    Binos for my soon to be 8 year old.

    My soon to be 8 year old informed me that he wants to see a snowy owl for his birthday, of course, in the wild and not at a zoo:-). I am looking forward to the challenge! I was already thinking of getting him a set of half-ways decent binos, as he will occasionally sit by the window and watch...

    The elk shoulder that stopped a 308

    Wow that terrible!! We got to see the actual progression of fudd’s… A few other observations. WTF is up with the scope mounting!!! Is that a ring mounted directly above the bolt??? Speaking about above, could the scope be any higher!! I can’t wait for the next episodes… Ryan

    Muzzle break Accuracy issue

    I had a break installed on an x-bolt, it greatly affected group size. First shot or two was great, after that it would start stringing vertically bad. I went round and round trying to figure it out. Long story short, the smith that installed and built the break made the bore hole too small. I...

    Vortex Viper HD 10x42 - cabela's black friday edition

    I couldn’t tell a difference between the older viper and the c.1. I ended up with the vipers because they were slightly cheaper. Ryan

    Dual Grind vs Single Grind

    I used to double grind everything. I prefer single grind with the smaller plate now. Double grinding made the meat almost too mushy. As for adding fat, we don’t.

    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44 new model

    100% agree with you. My understanding of the premise behind the drop test is that if they pass the drop test, they generally hold up to 3000 rounds of actual field use with no problems. If they fail the drop test, they will generally have problems within 3000 rounds of actual field use. Ryan

    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44 new model

    What would you need to see for them to be proven durable? If you are going to criticize the guys with the balls to drop there new (expensive) scopes to help better everyone else on this forum interested in scopes that actually work, at least offer some constructive feedback as to how they can do...
