    Looking at suppressors

    Need to get a different .22 with a threaded barrel.

    There’s a silencer shop affiliated dealer near me. Going to go talk to them on my way home from work. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Looking at suppressors

    Most of the ones that are being recommended are out of stock or backorder. I'm looking to get the process started now, since it could take 6mos or longer and who knows when the others will be available.

    Looking at suppressors

    The energetic armament has interchangeable caps as well, that seems to be the one I am leaning towards the most.

    Looking at suppressors

    I have two Browning X-Bolts that are suppressor ready, a .223 and .300 Win Mag. However, the .300 Win Mag has a 26" barrel and I'm thinking that barrel length is going to be way too long with the addition of a suppressor. Thinking about having it re-rebarreled later somewhere between 18-22"...

    200 yard grouping

    I'm not concerned about me, but it's a small room and don't want to be inconsiderate of others. Plus I don't mind shooting outside.

    200 yard grouping

    Rifle Gear in the Colony has one. However, shooting with a break in there will be really loud. Quail Creek is 15 minutes from me and Fossil Pointe about 45 minutes.

    If only shooting 100 yards, I go to Quail Creek. If longer Fossil Pointe or ETTS. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    6.5 or .223 for a practice rifle

    I have 3 rifles, a crappy Remington 597 .22 LR and two Browning X-Bolt's (7mm-08 and .300 win mag). To improve my shooting, I am thinking about getting another X-Bolt in either .223 or 6.5 creedmoor. The practice X-Bolt would be a dedicated practice gun and would be used if I do a little...

    200 yard grouping

    The .300 isn't going to be a frequent shooter as I also have a 7mm-08. Just trying to find the ammo that gun likes right now. I was trying to get it zeroed in but I am looking at buying a .308 or 6.5 for my practice\range gun. I would like to stay in the X-Bolt family in guns as that's what...

    200 yard grouping

    I've been out with it twice at 200 yards and found that when the barrel gets warm, the POI shifts 1-2 moa to the right. It's great with a cold bore but when warm, it's accuracy diminishes. I really need to get a practice rifle.

    200 yard grouping

    Well it’s about 95 degrees here actual temperature but feels well over 100 degrees. But I was under shade while shooting. Barrel is a sporter barrel and I was making sure I could leave a hand on it for a few seconds before firing the next string. I felt like I was doing everything the same but...

    200 yard grouping

    First 3 out of a cold bore @ 200 yards, in the red. Waited about 10 minutes and the next two hit right. The next couple strings, same process same results. It’s 90+ degrees down here in Texas and thinking I didn’t let the barrel cool down enough, thoughts or is it the shooter? Definitely happy...

    200 yard grouping

    Yes sir, moved left and then up to get it about 1.5" high at 100 yards. I'm not ready to take it out hunting yet, that was my first time ever shooting at 200 yards, so I know I need the practice. Picture number 4 was the .300 win at 200 yards and seemed to get tighter but was now hitting right...

    200 yard grouping

    When I checked my manual before taking it apart to adjust the trigger, it just said make them tight and didn't give a torque value. I've read everywhere between 35-65lbs. Watched a video on the trigger adjustment and they retorqued theirs to 45lbs, so that's what I went with. Just contacted...

    Yes sir, I will double check the torque this afternoon. I can bump up the torque rings to 20lbs as Talley recommended 17-20lbs, since the torque driver was already set at 18, and it fell within the specs I left it there.

    200 yard grouping

    I'm going to try to hit the range this week. I will take @SDHNTR 's advice and do a true 100 yard zero. Was talking with my hunting partner about the 100 yard zero and he is still a fan of the 200 yard or 1.5" at 100 for MPBR. And after reading on this forum, other forums and videos. I can...
