    143 ELD-X blew up on the shoulder?

    @Juan_ID Shot a buck a few years ago that had a similar result. Luckily it was a follow up shot and the first one was right in the boiler room. We looked back at the video and it definitely touched a branch a few feet in front of the animal. Onside shoulder was hamburger.

    143 ELD-X blew up on the shoulder?

    I lean hard towards saying it hit a branch that the shooter wasn't aware of, but if he is sure there is absolutely no chance that happened then I don't have any good ideas how it's possible

    Adjusting MOA for elevation

    Few different ways I am aware of. - make multiple dope cards for the different elevations or DA's that you hunt - use a rangefinder that automatically compensates for it - use an app that factors it in or manually input it (lot of people screenshot the dope chart and set it as there background...

    Revic BLR10b Rangefinding Binoculars

    Do you think it is being overly picky or is it more dependent on how a guy hunts? I am not so concerned with elk as they are giant yellow school buses that seem to move all the time and are easy to spot. Mule deer on the other hand, I find myself glassing for hours at a time from a tripod. I can...

    Justify it by carrying 1 less spare bullet cuz you’re less likely to need it with the almighty rokstok??

    Revic BLR10b Rangefinding Binoculars

    Can someone please do a Revic vs vectronix vs sig gen 2 review???? I was all set on wanting the Revic for all of its positive reviews but I am sure struggling with the idea of giving up my swaro glass if I am going to be immediately disappointed in glass quality.

    Suppressor wait times

    I have had 2 different approvals in the last few months. Both were under 3 days. One was under 24 hours if you don't consider the weekend.

    180 ELDM Terminal performance.

    That’s exactly what I’m hoping for. Take some edge off but mostly recoil reduction. Not yet. I’m a 5/1/24 order so i think i have a bit still. A close friend ordered early and got one of the first .375 bores that I’m aware of. He loves it

    New Hornady products 2025

    Those aeromatch bullets interest me for competition and practice if the price is good. Any one seen what the price is going to be?? Also, watched the video on them and they kept mentioning how they had the exact same profile as the bullets we are used to..... does that mean same as an ELDM or...

    Skin on or skin off when field dressing Elk?

    I have always skinned as I quartered like most probably do. This last trip, the guy I was with went straight through the hide and cut quarters of with the hide on. We had 4 guys in total so it actually worked faster because as soon as he would hack a quarter off, the next guy would skin it. I...

    UM Tikka bolt handles

    Do you mean the handles? Handles pull up as $46 but still have to buy the ball at $60. Not quite enough to sway me

    Suppressor Opinion: Meh, It’s Ok

    It took a year for you to figure out that putting weight on the end of your barrel affects zero and it isn't practical to swap 1 muzzle device between 3 different hunters rifles while hunting? Come on..... this is almost as silly as saying it's an annoyance that you have to buy a scope for each...

    What should I know for long range match?

    Some good comments already. I think you could take either gun but neither area ideal, though that is OK. If you take the 6.5 PRC just treat it like hunting practice and don't expect to get most shots off in time just focus on building a good position and trying to get impacts. If you bring the...
