    Wildcat Composites Current Shipping Policy

    Nice. They have some nice looking stocks- from Google images. They don't appear to have a website? What do their stocks cost? Do they offer Tikka inlets?

    Wildcat Composites Current Shipping Policy

    I hear what you're saying, but rifle stocks ergos are definitely subjective. Preferences will vary. I shoot a variety of platforms- from full vertical competitions rigs to very old school, traditional stocks. The Wildcat ergos don't bother me at all. And what else comes in at 20-22ozs and that...

    How many prefer high shoulder shots?

    Depends on the situation, but mostly I avoid that shot. My family loves the Rinella slow cooker blade roasts too much.

    Tikka scope mounting options?

    Pretty much exactly where I’ve settled with Tikkas. Sportsmatch, unless I absolutely have to have inclination. Then Area419 w/ XTR Sigs.

    Wildcat Composites Current Shipping Policy

    Honestly, I’m surprised he hasn’t accessed the US market again. It so much larger than ours. The red tape must be pretty bad…

    Wildcat Composites Current Shipping Policy

    Stuart makes absolutely excellent stocks. Lighter and stiffer than anything I've owned or used. If enough Americans keep calling, maybe he will look at making the changes needed.

    Seek Outside 2022 Pack Updates

    Exactly. I could live with the pockets, if there was the option to switch them side to side.

    Seek Outside 2022 Pack Updates

    The new fabric looks really good. Looking forward to the custom pack option being available again, as I’m not a fan of large side pockets. I was a early adopter of the Paradox/SO Evolution 6300 packs and have been very happy with almost everything about them. Mine is getting a little long in...

    6.5 Creedmoor Powder Recommendations?

    Yep. My fall backs if my H4350 ran out and wasn’t available.

    To lift my Tundra or not

    2-3” inches of lift sure doesn’t hurt a Tundras ground clearance and off-road capability. The departure angle is the biggest limiting factor on the them. IME.

    Shoeing

    http://easybootepic.com/ These are the only boot we have experience with. But have been pretty impressed so far. We have quite a few miles on 3 sets. They have held up well over all, but will need some parts replaced before our next trip. Parts are readily available and reasonably priced from...

    Horse wrecks and adventures

    No Sir. Please continue. It’s a great topic. Brings back good memories. Good for a few grins and belly laughs.

    Shoeing

    We’ve been using boots the last few years. Our scenario is year round trips to the mountains and foothills. Riding in our country can mean really rocky, muddy and icy terrain all in one day. The boots can be studded or have hardened bolts out the bottom. They’re quick to put on or pull off, so...

    Anyone playing with 6.5 StaBall?

    I have a bunch of the 108, but haven’t tried them in this rifle yet. Shooting the 115DTAC w/ 42 StaBall. Alpha LR brass, Tula LR primers. Can’t remember OAL off hand. Pretty sure the load is well below max, but as always... work up for your rifle. :)

    Anyone playing with 6.5 StaBall?

    I’ve been happy with it in my 6CM comp rifle. Good velocity, great accuracy and low SD. Anymore, I prefer to throw loads for my higher volume guns. StaBall works really nice for that.

    Aftermarket Tikka stock.. lighter?

    I have a Wildcat with my gunsmith right now. It’s the ultralight model. He says it’ll finish at 20 ounces, with a 1” Decelerator.

    First Focal Plane vs Second

    Hunting and competition are potentially time sensitive environments, with high value targets. I prefer to keep my systems simple, but options to dial/hold ele or wind open. So a well designed reticle, in FFP MRAD for me. Every single time. Wind also becomes a LOT less voodoo with a straight...

    Accuracy of your Tikka T3X factory Fluted Barrels

    I recently purchased a LH SL as a donor for a ‘as close to ultralight as a lefty can get build’. Aiming for 5.5 pounds bare, or lower. Time will tell. Having never owned a fluted barrel, I was a little skeptical, so wanted to shoot the donor. At least to confirm it wasn’t a complete dog...

    Missing Rifle Scope Features?

    In my circle of shooting/hunting buddies, we own around 20 Elite Tactical scopes. 15 are LRHS/LRTS. Probably half are on high volume, hard use guns. All have been solid. So far. ;)
