    Tripod for glassing and shooting

    I use the RRS Ascend with the ascend head. Probably the best tripod on the market for a mix of glassing and shooting. The arca attacthment is a quick detach and the center column can be shortened to 4 inches for prone shots. At $1600 retail it ain’t cheap I did a payment plan for mine, the way I...

    Long range shooting challenge from Backfire

    I trust razors but he had either a venom, diamondback, or strike eagle not 100% which one but those are all known unreliable scopes.

    “Backfire” hunting challenge fail

    That video was so incredibly painful to watch. When he showed up with a lower end vortex scope and then scoped himself first shot it told me everything I need to know. Kinda pissed me off at the end when he said he was a wildlife biologist and thought his ethical hunting abilities were still 400...

    Suppressor wait times getting faster

    I work at a gun store and this past fall it seemed like most people were getting approved in that 5-6 month time frame but we still had lots of people waiting from the prior january or december. Had a few much faster then that as well. My ultra 5 took 5.5 months my sparrow took 81 days. I...

    Tripod recommendation

    The worst product Vortex makes is their glassing tripods and its not even close. I cant beleive they even sell any of them. Id look for a tripod in the 3-4 pound range, especially if you're wanting to shoot off of it. Doesnt matter how good your glass is if your tripod wont keep your glass...

    Backstop Recoil Pad

    why not change stock ergonomics AND get a different recoil pad?? You can have both you know. I dont see a problem with the concept of the pad, innovation or competition is always a good thing. Im spending over $90 on bullets atm so im not to worried about the price of the recoil pad. Might have...

    American Rifle Company discontinuing The Nucleus? What should I get instead

    I agree if this rifle was going to be used primarily for hunting dangerous game but honestly this will be used for Whitetail in Iowa more then anything. No plans anytime soon to hunt DG in africa and Ive got a different rifle ill probably use for bears in Alaska. The build was kinda just a cool...

    American Rifle Company discontinuing The Nucleus? What should I get instead

    Hasn’t realized till after I made this thread the the CDG has an integral rail and recoil lug?? I just assumed it wasn’t like the mausingfeild and nucleus. How the hell did they get the price so low with that? Usually other manufactures charge 60+% for those features because of machining. I...

    American Rifle Company discontinuing The Nucleus? What should I get instead

    I guess it’s suppose to be a “modern day DG gun” wanted to build a rifle for when I move to Alaska in the next few years but could also use in iowa when I’m back home for deer season. We can only use 35 cal or larger for rifles during shotgun season.

    American Rifle Company discontinuing The Nucleus? What should I get instead

    I have been looking at getting an ARC Nucleus for a little while now and online always says out of stock and back order is unavailable. I called them earlier today asking how I go about ordering one and was told they aren’t making them at the moment and don’t plan to for a “very long time.”...

    Muzzle Break or Suppressor?

    There are plenty of supressors you can buy for under $700 that’s the same price as a decent scope but obviously you can spend way more then that (on a suppressor or scope). A decent pair of boots are at minimum $300 and that is a consumable so I don’t really see the complaint that they are to...

    My gear/pack layout from base layers to binos

    Big fan of the Wakayamas. Only glove I’ve found that can still keep my hands warm but allow enough dexterity to take my gun of safety (more applicable with shotguns). I use them mostly for bird hunting. You mentioned you were a fan of the de havilands waist closer/belt mechanism and that it’s...
