I own and for the last 2 years have used a folding stock chassis for my hunting rifle. Next year I plan on going back to a carbon fiber stock. I prefer the feel of a more traditional stock while hiking around the woods. Something about the pistol grip and the skeletonized stock in a chassis that...

New switch weight mods would need to be purchased to go over 60#. I believe they cost around $60. The current mods are 60#. I’m not a bow technician but the limbs are screwed all the weigh in and my hand scale says 60#.
I'm selling my Mathews VXR 31.5 with a Hamski Hybrid Hunter Pro rest and a 3pin Black Gold sight. $750 shipped continental US. Paypal.
The bow is setup for 60# with a 30" draw and 80% letoff. I'm the original owner and I'm selling the bow because I ended up never moving away from my Hoyt bow...
I also live in Douglas county. I prefer Colorado Rifle Club in Byers. It’s a long drive but I think it’s the best range around. Many different types of shooting opportunities at CRC to include paper to 1000 yards and steel to 770 yards soon further.
Buy another 300WM. Compare the two rifles’ accuracy. Sell the less accurate rifle through consignment. Every time I buy a rifle that doesn’t shoot well for me or I dont like it for whatever reason then I’m not going to waste my time with it.
I own an NX8 2.5-20. I have also owned a Zeiss V6 3.5-18. The NX8's optical quality was so much better than the Zeiss V6 that I sold the Zeiss scope.
I have no experience with the Leupold Mark 5HD.
I have a 22” proof carbon barrel chambered 300WSM on an AntiX short action. 212gr ELD-X handloads are traveling at 2,750 FPS. I could go faster. This is below Hornady book max but it is fast enough to still have 1,500 ft/lbs at 1,000 yards at 9,000 ft elevation. BTW, factory Hornady Elite...
I own the NF NX8 2.5-20 FFP MOAR. I also own/owned my other scopes in similar price ranges such as other NF, Zeiss, Steiner, Swarovski, Vortex, and Leupold.
My thought is this is the best long range hunting scope. Here are the reasons.
-durability: I can yank my rifle though thick brush and...
