    Mid-price rifle kit thread - review and thoughts

    I will add this that while it is about 1 lb heavier than my other rifle actually when people pick it up they always exclaim how light it is because I think with that Stocky's stock it's quite well balanced so I don't really feel the pound more it weighs versus my other. And perhaps bc it's...

    Mid-price rifle kit thread - review and thoughts

    Last year with some of my tax return, I decided to put together a mid-priced (yes that is a relative number) rifle in a caliber and style I wanted rather than just buying out of the box rifle. I didn't have the money nor time for a full build so cobbling one together seemed the best option. I...

    Seekins, Bergara are both hard to beat - Bergara bang for buck may be putting out the best rifles on the market right now IMO (yes my opinion so we know what those are worth.) All that said I will state I am not a fan of Tikka - I've owned one and had two friends own them as well. All three had...

    Pants - the ultimate pain point (and 5.11 trail pant personal review)

    So far I am a fan. Wore them on my ruck last night. But yeah I am surprised they don't make slim and regular cut both for those with certain pref or needs.

    Not so long-range monolithic bullets

    Thanks, I'll take a look at the CEs. Mostly choosing a bullet that holds together better out of personal preference.

    Not so long-range monolithic bullets

    TY sir you get a gold star in my book for a clear concise post and illuminating details I wasn't aware of! :) Yes I've been looking around 150gr bullets or really whatever will work. and I agree I like keeping impact velocity to 2300 plus even with my Nos as from what research I've found online...

    Not so long-range monolithic bullets

    Thanks all def looking to start rolling my own. I have a buddy who will help. Not so keen on Hammer in part bc I have two friends that are contrary in their results and even their website wants higher twist on the .284 bullets compared to others. The Hornady CX is an interesting thought that...

    Not so long-range monolithic bullets

    BC def seems an issue in monolithics. I've also looked at Cutting Edge Bullets. I may just have to start handloading the Federals but was thinking of going full nonlead. Makers which is one of the higher BC at 160 grain lists for nonlead at least the ABLR however is Vastly higher BC Sectional...

    Not so long-range monolithic bullets

    I've been using factory ammunition out of my 28 Nosler (Nosler Mountain Carbon 1:9 twist) with good success for four years now. I have found both the Nosler ABLR and Federal Terminal Ascent shoot very well from it. Unfortunately, Federal will no longer produce a full factory cartridge for the 28...

    Pants - the ultimate pain point (and 5.11 trail pant personal review)

    Pants. Pants, pants, pants! I hate the cost of high-end hunting pants that often IMO don't live up to the hype nor cost. And no I haven't tried KUIU (yet) as I hear people say all pants are measured to them. I feel like I have a pretty dialed kit but I am always playing with pants. If you don't...

    Tarptent Stratospire 1 - taller persons

    Does anyone here use a Tarptent Stratospire with inner but who is maybe a bit taller? I don't really consider myself tall but in the UL world anything over 6' apparently is and I'm 6'2". I am super interested in this tent system but use a Nemo Tensor Alpine long-wide (76 x 25 x 3.0 inches per...
