    Hunt/Nav apps

    Wanting some advice on hunting and navigation apps, particularly the GoHunt app. I’ve been using On-X with a one-state subscription for years and then used Gia for other states. Just not a fan of Gia. The private/public lands maps have too many issues on that app. Planning to dump it and go with...

    Black Hiils 77gr TMK velocity

    I’d appreciate if y’all would look at this and give me your thoughts on what would cause this. I recently got a Tikka 223 cut to 18” and threaded for my can and took it to the range to sight in and get some chrono data. The gun shot well but I got some weird chrono data that doesn’t make sense...

    Tourbon bolt handles for Tikka

    Do y’all glue these rubber do-hickeys on or just leave it as a friction fit? If I get frisky with racking the bolt, the knob shifts and gets a little wonky. Thanks.

    Thanks for the carnage

    @Ryan Avery @Formidilosus I wanted to thank you guys and all the people who are posting post-mortem wound channel pictures on this site. It seems to have started with the 223 thread and match bullet threads and extended into the 243-6 mm, 6.5/260, and 22 CM threads. The result, if you take...

    Hanwag Ancash II

    The Hanwag Ancash II came up on the other threads about wide boots and roomier toe boxes recently. I know there are others who have similar foot problems to mine so I wanted to share some feedback on these. I got these boot in last weekend and have only just started breaking them in. So far...

    RRS BH-30 vs LEO LH-30 ball heads

    I’ve read multiple threads that say bite the bullet and buy the RRS Anvil 30 ball head for shooting off a tripod, and that the Leofoto version does not remotely compare. I’d like to know specifics about why from people who’ve used both. Under what circumstances does the cheaper perform...

    Sierra?

    Just wondering WTH is up with this company. I reached out to them recently to ask about the availability of 130 gr .264 TMK bullets. Their answer was basically, “Oh well, we might get to making a batch of them sometime later this year.” I find that puzzling, because it’s one of their most...

    Hoffman Explorer Light boots Size 11, medium width $200+ actual shipping cost, PayPal or Venmo. I have a day of bird hunting and a couple of days of wearing around the house. Just didn’t work for my feet. These boots are very similar to the Kenetrek Hardscrabble Hikers and are probably made...

    Hanwag Ancash II?

    Anyone have experience with these Hanwags? My go-to boots for the last few years have been the Kenetrek Hardscrabble Hikers. I have a tendency to walk out on the outside of my feet and the crepe midsole on the Hardscrabbles compresses such that the boot tilts outward and eventually stays that...

    WTS Tikka 300 WSM Barrel

    This is a factory stainless Tikka 300 WSM barrel that came back from the smith today. It’s got less than 200 rounds down it. I replaced it because I wanted to go a different direction. The barrel is not fluted so you should be able to cut and thread to 9/16x24 if so desired or leave it stock...

    Simple Minded Fella YouTube

    @deerhunter628 mentioned this guy’s YouTube channel in a thread yesterday, and it sent me down a huge rabbit hole. If you have not seen it go check it out. Not super slick, high quality production, but super high-quality information. He focuses on rifle bullet testing in gelatin. Lots of people...

    AB suppressors?

    Does anyone here have any direct experience with AB suppressors? They seem to perform pretty well in terms of dB reduction based on what I’ve seen on YouTube. I also like the modularity with the interchangeable end caps for changing calibers and the reflex mounts. I’m considering a smaller 6...

    Sportsmatch ring fit?

    I have a new set of Sportsmatch TO84 rings that I am using to mount an SWFA 3-15 on a Tikka. The issue is that the rings seem to be a hair too small for the 30mm scope tube. They fit over the tube, but the tops of the rings rock back and forth significantly before you put the bolts in. If you...

    Kenetrek customer service

    I recently had a issue with a pair of Kenetrek boots that came down to how the boot was flexing over my right big toe joint and sent them back to the company for an evaluation. This was my second pair of Kenetreks and I particularly like them because they have a taller toe box than many of the...

    Tikka factory stock mods?

    Anybody rebarrel a Tikka t3x sporter in a factory stock? I’m thinking about going up a little bit in contour. I’m not concerned about the bottom of the barrel channel, but what about the forearm rails? Can I trim them back a little to free float without fear of making a hole? I’m thinking a...

    Preferred Ballistics App?

    Had to switch to an iPhone recently and am in the market for a new ballistics app. Need one that will handle a Bluetooth wind meter that I already have. What is your preference and why? I was using BallisticsARC from GeoBallistics. Thanks…
