    6.5 PRC

    Wcarper, What did you end up choosing? I‘m in a similar situation. I need to order a barrel soon for a Tikka build I am doing and trying to decide on 7PRC vs 6.5 PRC that I will use as my one rifle for both deer and elk. I think the question for me is if I believe the 6.5 PRC is adequate...

    Carbon 6 Tikka pre-fit

    Happy Thanksgiving. I’m going to restart this thread to see how people’s experience with CarbonSix has been for people recently. My potential build hinges on holidays sales including the CarbonSix sale. I need to decide pronto if I’m going to go through with it. It would be a Tikka prefit...

    Also from the PNW. Fairly new to the site but it amazes me how much knowledge is on here and how much people are willing to help.

    Trijicon Credo® HX 2.5-15x42 user reviews requested

    Yeah, I don’t know why SFP scopes have busy reticle with lots of hash marks. I like Leupold’s Windplex reticle.

    Trijicon Credo® HX 2.5-15x42 user reviews requested

    I am in the market for a new rifle and a new scope. I thought I had decided on the Leupold VX5HD, but the Rokslide Rifle Scope Field Evaluations steered me towards the Trijicon Credo® HX 2.5-15x42. It‘s a little heavier than I wanted but I will take the extra ounces for the durability and...

    Bergara Ridge Carbon Wilderness or Browning X-Bolt Speed SR

    I’m in the market and just checked one out at the store. Yes, they still have that rubberized coating.

    Christensen Arms - bad first impression

    You’re totally right Encore. One phone call shouldn’t be a deal breaker and I’m not knocking them off the list of options yet. But when it comes time to decide on a rifle, that interaction will always come to mind. I have spoken to Hornady, Vortex and Bergara customer service for various...

    Caliber Crystal Ball - Can you predict the future?

    I said it was my Goldilocks cartridge. It doesn’t have to be yours.

    Christensen Arms - bad first impression

    I hope I’m not the only one that dorks-out this much, but I am building a spreadsheet around the potential new rifles I am in the market for. I have added all the potential rifles that fit my criteria and I am going to add rifles that are introduced at Shot Show. Mostly it is just because I...

    Caliber Crystal Ball - Can you predict the future?

    I have no affinity for the .277. I’m just looking for my Goldilocks western hunting cartridge and it would mimic the 6.8 W’s ballistics but in a short action 7mm. Similar to a 7 SAUM or 7-6.5 PRC but with all the rifle and ammo offerings of something more mainstream.

    The US Army missed that memo.

    Caliber Crystal Ball - Can you predict the future?

    I agree the .25 is more likely and a better fit for commercial success. Selfishly I just want a cartridge for hunting similar to 6.8 Western’s ballistics but with better factory rifle and ammo support and hopefully staying power.

    Caliber Crystal Ball - Can you predict the future?

    My kids play a lot of sports and there is this term, “Athletic arrogance“ that describes a kid that believes in his/her abilities so much that they try and often succeed at things on the court or field that other kids won’t attempt because of that extreme confidence. Love it or hate it, Hornady...
