    2011's stacattos and others

    https://staccato2011.com/dealer-locator Looks like the Portland area is the place to go if you're looking for a Staccato, depending on what part of the state you're in it might be closer to drive to Boise, Richland, or Yakima.

    The Shoot2hunt Podcast

    The podcast was already recorded, but Jake asked about standard cases and the folks from ADG said that all of their equipment was set up for magnum, which is why those are the only cases they produce. They hinted that standard cases could be coming in the future, but I would imagine 223 is way...

    “Backfire” hunting challenge fail

    They didn’t mention it (or if they did I missed it) but he went 0/5 with the Savage and then the next round he borrowed the suppressed Tikka and went 5/5 and used that for the rest of the course of fire.

    “Backfire” hunting challenge fail

    Once again the interviews were enlightening. After going 40% from prone with no wind, 2 of the 3 said they were still comfortable out to 600 “in perfect conditions.” Jake did the best of the three (most hits AND brought a gun that survived the whole test) and said his max was 250-300 because he...

    Do bipods change POI?

    OP, I’ll clarify my earlier post a little bit. I’d borrow someone else’s bipod and see if your Tikka’s POI shifts. If it doesn’t, all your fears wash away and you’re good to go. If it does shift, a little sandpaper can help you eliminate the possibility of stock contact causing the issues...

    Do bipods change POI?

    A little sandpaper and a can-do attitude can get you enough clearance to eliminate bipod concerns on a factory Tikka stock. I believe the industry standard is enough clearance for at least one dead cat.

    The Shoot2hunt Podcast

    Ask them if/when they’re coming out with the 6.8 WST brass, it’s a point of much debate in some of the 6.8 WST threads around here.

    For everyone getting their non-fishnet underpants in a bunch over the 22 Mag recommendations/statements/discussion/whatever, do you honestly believe that the average hunter has a better chance of a CNS hit on a grizzly with a heavy 44 Mag or even a 10mm? In under 2 seconds from a holster? My...

    Tikka Not Grouping??

    Not doubting your experiences, but lots of others see improvement when they take that nub out. I also haven’t seen any aftermarket stocks that include a pressure point, so I don’t believe they’re essential for accuracy. I’ve taken them out of all mine (3 factory stocks to date) to no ill effect...

    Tikka Not Grouping??

    I’d make sure the barrel is fully free floated, then next time you head to the range with your friend, bring a set of snapcaps and have your friend load the mags for you. That’ll help diagnose whether it’s you or the rifle.

    The Shoot2hunt Podcast

    Episode 310 of the ME podcast might be the one you’re thinking of, Bear Talk starts at the 1:10 mark. Two guys out elk hunting, wander into a sow and cubs, sow responds exactly how you’d expect. Sow starts mauling Guy 1, so Guy 2 shoots it with the 300 WM and hits it high shoulder. It turns on...

    But how much penetration do you need in properly calibrated gelatin to effectively disrupt the CBSS*? Is the FBI standard of 12” sufficient? Gonna need this to be a topic on the next Form Friday. *Central Bouncy Spring System

    Definitely interested in what the African PAs carry for Tiggers, which are notoriously hard to hit because of all the bouncing.

    The Shoot2hunt Podcast

    Tuesday S2H (90 minute runtime): “There are some concerns with threading a sporter type barrel with 1/2” threads, especially in something like a 30 call…blah blah blah math and stuff.” Form Friday (30 second runtime): “Barrel makers are either cowards or idiots. You’ll be fine.”

    Are there any downsides to the “Fieldcraft” barrel profile that has the expanded shoulder at the end to support suppressor use?

    Vasectomy

    I would remember that the internet is like the world's largest customer comment box, the people with negative voices are always going to out scream the people who didn't have any issues. After all, most people don't necessarily want to go on the internet and talk about their balls. It's an...
