    Cold Bore Shots, POI Shifts, and Canted Scopes

    Forms approach is the way to go Torque depends on the screw size. Ring cap screws are almost always 8-40 and do well with 18-23 in-lb. Base screw size varies, and it's always best to glue the rail on to help the screws...

    Cold Bow 2024.... QnA Thread

    Yeah that's a big change for sure. Reducing the number of days will be interesting too, wasn't the original general premise behind this whole thing that effective range goes down as you start to stack days without practice? I don't recall the general trend from everyone last year, but my miss...

    Cold Bore Shots, POI Shifts, and Canted Scopes

    it could easily be that. guys have seen really dramatic lot to lot variations in factory stuff, particularly with hornady ammo. there's no guarantee that the powder is even the same type lot to lot on factory ammo. to summarize the issues you've relayed so far: 1. unknown torque on action...

    How much does grain weight affect trajectory

    Did a little testing this winter, shooting a line from 60 yards and measuring vertical impact. 15 shots per arrow weight, threw out the highest and lowest impacts for each weight. For the remaining shots: 434 gr averaged 2.1" high 459 gr averaged 0.2" low 469 gr averaged 0.9" low The bow...

    First Suppressor - recommendations

    For a hunting rifle can, I'd insist on 5/8×24 direct thread, 30 cal capable, and full titanium construction. Once you get into the handful of cans that fit that criteria, only the rugged Alaskan 360 has consistently bad reviews. I have zero regrets on my cgs hyperion purchases, now that I...

    Kids rifle manifesto

    The lop on tikka compact stocks fit kids from about 55# and up. It's better if you raise the comb though to get their eye lined up with the scope. Rokstock is the easy way, my tikka stock mod thread is the cheap way.

    Recommend not answering this unless you literally want a guy in every single tree at your hunting spot.

    Pennsylvania public land bucks

    SE PA public, 2021 and 2023. A good amount of luck involved in both kills, bigger one netted 130 0/8. Missed a p&y buck in the same area in 2022, saw one in 2023 and didn't get a shot. PA deer hunting now is nothing like it was 20 years ago.

    Unknown munitions is a Tikka dealer now, see what they'd charge to chop it before they ship it.

    Finally set up my home reloading station, have some questions.

    If you don't get one shot off the cases it will build up in your chamber and cause pressure signs.

    Your go to Broadheads!?

    Exodus is a really good head for basically all applications shooting 60+ #. Rage trypans are also very durable and cut a huge hole. Deadmeat v1 125grs were a really good head, but the aluminum threaded post on the 100s is a weak point, and the new v2s have much thinner blades, which I do not...
