    Thoughts on 7mm-08 with 18” barrel and tikka action

    I say go for it! My wife has killed quite a few critters with her 20" 7mm08. Very capable setup, throw a suppressor on it and really have some fun! Sent from my SM-G973U1 using Tapatalk

    What is the ideal cartridge, barrel length, and suppressor length?

    Certainly a lot of personal preference here. 24" with suppressor was too much for me too especially for elk hunting. Unfortunately there isn't a ton of great factory options with this in mind however it is catching on. My wife packed her 20" 7mm08 this past weekend with it on. She almost...

    Carbon Six

    No doubt I'd send it back. If it was off the clearance rack that'd be one thing but otherwise I'd expect better, and I'm sure they do too Sent from my SM-G973U1 using Tapatalk

    FFP vs RFP for coyotes

    follow up shots are certainly an interesting perspective, definitely a place where the ffp has some advantages. Hadn't given that much consideration

    FFP vs RFP for coyotes

    Going to be buying another 22-250 soon since I cant thread my current one and would just be silly to not use my new suppressor haha. I think i've narrowed down my scope shopping to the burris veracity 3-15x50mm. Natchez has the same scope in both FFP and RFP setups on sale. I am much more...

    25-06 factory ammo for whitetail - what I've got

    I'd be more than comfortable with any of those on whitetails honestly. I'm becoming a mono fan tho and the gmx would be my first pick. Used 100gr etip on my last whitetail out of the 25-06 and worked wonderfully Sent from my SM-G973U1 using Tapatalk

    Tikka 6.5 PRC magazine

    The simplest solution is to buy a short action magazine either factory or mountain tactical. Neither will be totally flush with the stock but will be much better than it is now. The 2nd option as others have mentioned is to change it over to a long action. Which would require changing the bolt...

    Tikka 6.5 PRC magazine

    Mountain tactical out of Bozeman sells 3 round mags and are aluminum instead of plastic. Or you should be able to find a factory 3rd somewhere esp from guys who have converted to long action Sent from my SM-G973U1 using Tapatalk

    168 vs 175 gr ABLR’s in 7mm

    I contacted federal again today, when I typed the part number in Google most retailers listed it as 165 gr so I asked about that and the availability, this is the reply I got: "We are currently not building them in any volume yet as we are trying to get caught up on our loaded rounds of...

    168 vs 175 gr ABLR’s in 7mm

    That is fantastic news I hadn't seen that. Ironically I had contacted federal a month or so ago asking for this exact thing and got told nothing in the plans but would pass it along to the development team. Would love to get my hands on some and work up a load with both them and 155 hammers. I...

    Muzzle Brake vs Flash Hider

    So my thunder best ultra 7 will be out of jail any day. It has their CB mount system so will need a muzzle device on each rifle. I plan on just using the muzzle brake style on most of my rifles as I don't plan on using them without the suppressor hardly ever. But, I am going to get my wife's...

    280ai twist rates

    I am in the same build. I changed my mind from a 280ai to the 7 saum. I ordered a 8 twist carbon six barrel, 20". I switched to the saum for a couple reasons, first was mag length leaves all the options on the table (same for the 8 twist) and also the saum seems to be less affected by the short...

    300 win mag/ PRC twist rate

    If you're buying a factory gun I wouldn't sweat a 1:10 as it can do a lot. But if if you're ordering a barrel it's a no-brainer to go with at least 1:9. Just leaves so many options on the table, especially if you ever start looking at the heavy coppers Sent from my SM-G973U1 using Tapatalk
