    Rifle too long?

    Most likely 6.5 Creedmoor. I doubt I shoot past 300 yards. My understanding is you need a long enough barrel to burn the powder efficiently. Does the suppressor count toward that length?

    Best left handed rifle to suppress for hunting

    @Njt124 What did you end up going with? I'm in the same boat, ear issues, mostly stand-hunting deer... I have a 9" Thunderbeast on order. Also, have you shot right handed rifles in the past and prefer left handed ones? I shoot LH, but have only shot RH rifles. It never bothered me, but should I...

    Rifle too long?

    I have a 9" Magnus suppressor on order. I'm planning on ordering a Tikka Compact Tactical Rifle with a 20" barrel. Is this going to be too long to hunt with? Am I going to end up wanting to cut the barrel down further? I mostly hunt out of box blinds and climbers. I went with the Magnus because...

    Alabama rut

    The AON's peak of rut map has been pretty accurate in my experience. I hunted southwest Alabama all my life and south east and central Alabama some too.

It’s fine if I’m shooting to the front, but to the sides or behind me it gets in the way sometimes. My back draw arm gets caught in the strap. Do...

    The bill to reverse the administration's action still has to pass the Senate, right? Does anyone know of a form letter or talking points to send to our senators in support of this bill?

    Help pick my rifle.

    Please help me decide between the Tikka T3x Compact Tactical Stainless 20' and the Browning X-Bolt Speed Cerakote 18' in 6.5 Creed. Around 95% of the use will be for southern whitetails out of a box stand with a short walk. Due to ear issues, I'm trying to get it as quiet as possible. I expect...

    Quietest Deer Caliber, Rifle, Suppressor Combo

    Thanks everyone for the replies, now which rifle? I'm going with a 6.5 Creedmoor because its big enough for deer, doesn't seem any or much louder than similar deer calibers, is widely available, and its seems most rifles are accurate in it. For the rifle I'm deciding between the Tikka T3x...
