    WTS Stockys Carbon for Savage long action.

    I bought this from Stocky's bargain barn with some paint chips. Nothing wrong with the carbon, just a few flakey paint spots. I tried to replicate the pattern but didn't do great. Sold the gun to my brother before using the stock. $299 shipped. Paypal f&f, postal money order, or cash. Thanks...

    Winchester model 70 "Coyote" version worth building on?

    Biggest issue I've run into is weight. Hard to get a Winchester to be a light gun. I own a Tikka T3X, a Sako 85, and 2 newer model 70 CRF. The smoothness and feeding is better on my Winchesters, but they just look beefy and bulky compared to the other 2. One of my Wins is a custom 6.5x55 and it...

    Help me choose fast twist Tikka 22 center-fire

    I went with a 22-250 and bought 1000 77gr tmk for my boys to learn with, and I'll probably use it a bit before they're ready for it. I was between a 22-250 and 223 as well, but decided on 22-250 in case we ever want to swap the barrel. Having the standard bolt face opens up a lot more options...

    I need help, what's wrong with my chamber?

    The 4 rifles I've reloaded for with Winchester or Nosler/Norma brass have done this. My one with Lapua brass did not. I wouldn't be worried if it were mine if I didn't notice any issues with case head sep.

    Stocky stocks and tipsy tuesday

    Back in November I was told end of the year. In January I was told end of the month. I've been checking every day. I'll be excited when I can finally get one. Or two.

    How light is too light?

    About 9.5 lbs is where I shoot better. 7lbs all in, I can't shoot 2 MOA. 9.5 lbs and up I can do .5-1 depending on the rifle, but the guns are still better than I am. Some of my friends can shoot smaller groups with the same guns. I have poor form and fundamentals that I'm trying to straighten...

    How does one become a poacher?

    My grandfather poached deer and fish for food to feed his family. My dad mostly plays by the rules but doesn't take much issue with poaching. He grew up with it, but also grew up with more money than my grandpa did. My brother's first deer was shot out of the truck window, before legal light, on...

    Options with my Tikka 30-06

    I haven't hunted with them. I wasn't able to squeeze out much more velocity than the 160 in my gun with the powders I had, so I just stuck with the 160.

    Suppressor wait times getting faster

    As of now it'll be getting switched around between a short 300 WSM, a 6.5x55, and a 22-250. I plan to get more as the budget allows so I don't have to switch.

    Suppressor wait times getting faster

    I was bracing for 6-9 months. I was reading the other suppressor wait times thread last week and saw all these people with 80 day waits and started to get my hopes up. Talked myself back down to reality and lowered my expectations. I got an email Tuesday morning saying my wait is up. It was like...

    Options with my Tikka 30-06

    I have a Sako 85 30-06, same barrels as Tikkas. It shoots all Barnes TTSX bullets that I've tried up to 168's well and I have also used Hammer Hunter 160's and Hammer Absolute 151's with excellent accuracy. Bull in my thumbnail pic was taken with the Hammer Hunter 160 last season.

    20” Long Action Talk

    My 20" 270 was a little louder. I didn't think it was crazy but that was just me going "yeah that seems a little louder than the other day with the 22" barrel." I also only shot it with ear pro, so it never really bothered me.

    Suppressor wait times

    Ordered my Scythe TI on 12/9 Didn't get my eform 4 certified and sent in until 1/17. I live over an hour from the store I ordered at and I've got a pretty busy life so there wasn't a lot of room to just make a trip to sign. The first time I did make a special trip there was an issue with...

    Leupold zero retention poll

    I don't think I ever really lost zero, but I like to tinker and take my scopes/bases off on occasion. So when I'd put things back together and go shoot, I'd need to zero all over again. I did not dial then, but I always found it odd when I'd dial my Leupolds 4 moa to get back to zero at 100...
