    Scope leveling rabbit hole - help please.

    Being able to secure the rifle in one spot and make incremental adjustments is key for good results. The Hollands scope mounting fixture works well, but a gun vise works too. I bought a small Starrett machinists level to help in tighter spots (confirming rifle is level throughout the process)...

    1x riflescope

    If trijicon made a 1x hunting acog with an exposed elevation turret… I have experience with the leupold rds with the exposed turret. The one I shot worked great out to 600y or so. This was mounted on a paramount. If you want to dial elevation in Utah the rds is the best option imo. I wish there...

    First time suppressor buyer - best buying experience?

    I went with silencer shop purely due to the single shot trust. My form 4 got denied due to an atf error, got resubmitted in a week and approved a day after. Had to send some emails and stuff but overall I’d go with the trust and ss again

    Places to shoot near North Ogden UT

    Check out three mile creek in Perry. Never been there but looks like a good range. I usually just go to the west desert or Lee Kay in SLC (300y range)

    Would you buy this scope?

    Make a swfa 3-9 type scope with capped windage and parallax. If you can hit 20-22 oz you’ll have a winner. Also make it 12-13” in length

    Williams precision peep on accura lrx

    I read about figment issues with the Williams front peep on accuras as well. I went with a lyman 17 front peep hood, marbles sight ramp in the proper size for my barrel diameter, and Lee shaver inserts. Excellent setup. The CVA/williams rear peep that comes with these rifles has an aperture...

    New Glassing Setup

    Don’t spend a lot of money on a “hunting” tripod. Buy something made for photography or video. Leofoto tripods can be had for cheap on eBay. Sirui VA-5X Ultra Is an excellent pan head and uses a quick release arca system that’s great for switching from binos to spotter. The tricer bino stud...

    Which Muzzleloader to Buy?

    I’ve had good luck with the 50cal CVA accura shooting BH209 and 330gr ELRs. Gun is easy to clean and operate. It’s a solid 200y gun with peep sights. I’ve looked at the more expensive muzzleloaders and unless you’re going super magnum, shooting .45 projectiles fast and planning on taking...

    Tikka ejector scratching case heads

    @Tandin93 the above image was factory Norma ammo. It was super cheap ($6 per 20 from PSA) and for good reason. I chronographed this ammo, 150gr at 2500ftps out of a 22” barreled 308, so significantly under loaded. Using this brass I’ve shot eldm 168 reloads at 2700ftps and the same marks...

    Prana Zion II for $46

    Ordered these a few months ago. The material sparkled in the sunlight, I’d pass

    Suppressor help

    I appreciate the advice. I’ve essentially been in Surefire and TBAC decision purgatory, given proprietary mounting systems (SF) and general unavailability (TBAC). This has led me to considering cheaper more modular systems. Is there any downside to the “hub” adapter system? What are the...

    Suppressor help

    As someone who doesn’t own a suppressor I am having trouble buying my first. I’d like to hear your recommendations or lessons learned. I’m not looking for one to rule them all, I’m just trying to avoid a boat anchor or a suppressor that won’t be used much. Most of my use will be on bolt guns...

    90 degrees bolt Kelby actions on sale at Preferred barrels

    Picked up an atlas lite. For $200 less than a bighorn origin these are a great deal for a lightweight action.

    "Long Range" Open Sight Setup

    @Wrench when adjusting the iris are there positive clicks between settings or is it more like a scope diopter that is infinitely variable? In general does your set point stay in place during a hunt? Thanks for posting this. This is one of the better rear peep setups I’ve seen.

    Accura LR-X and Williams globe sight

    Due to the possible fit issues with the Williams front peep I went with a Lyman 17a mounted on a mables sights ramp on my CVA accura. Fit is perfect. I also bought the Lee shaver front sight inserts. The fine duplex insert can’t be beat for longer shots. Stock Williams and Lyman inserts are too...

    Bought a pair, thanks for the post. For real hiking boots that are on the lighter side these seem great
