    Lever Action anyone?

    Before I did anything to it, I carried it on some deer hunts in NZ with iron sights. It handles super comfortably, very balanced, and I found the open sights quite usable. I added a scope to get to longer range, and I've had some success...but it is not the most accurate rifle I own. It's not...

    Lever Action anyone?

    18" I have an overbarrell reflex-style suppressor that I'm getting an adaptor made, for, then it will only be 21.5" suppressed. As it stands with that one its 26" suppressed. definitely alittle more forward heavy but honestly it's the scope that adds the most weight, the suppressor is...

    Ruger American gen II with aftermarket stock

    I've heard these new Gen II's are really accurate and fun to handle. The schtick seems to be the cheap plastic-y stock and trigger guard. Anyone using an aftermarket stock and getting good results? Rokstok in the future? Thanks for info.

    UT's land grab rejected by Supreme Court

    Based on all the podcasts with lawyers discussing this, there was an expectation that this move would only be a hiccup and they'd still submit in lower courts.

    Budget suppressors ?

    I'd check out the SD Tactical Carnivore and Carnivore K. Maybe sliiiightly above your ideal price point, but very reasonable for lightweight, functional suppressors. https://sdtacticalarms.com/product/carnivore-30-caliber-suppressor-system/

    What caliber (not cartridge) is best for short barreled rifles when shooting heavy bullets?

    Hey now, let’s not create any more dentist hate than what already exists 😉. No one has ever carried my gear, or my animals, other than a bud helping with a quarter or two.

    What caliber (not cartridge) is best for short barreled rifles when shooting heavy bullets?

    Can I ask someone who knows this stuff well about 7mm-08 specifically? Getting one currently at 20” cut and threaded for suppressor. Have asked for 18” from gunsmith, but would 16” make sense if it would always be suppressed and I’m planning to shoot bullets in the 139/140gn size? I don’t...

    Suppressor wait times getting faster

    For what it's worth, I did my fingerprinting and submitted my tax stamp payment with our local dealer on 12/20 and got my eForm approval today - eight days including a federal holiday. Felt real good taking that bad boy home today.

    Scope mounting to maintain zero

    Trying to mount my own bases/rings scope following this process. Bases are Warne Maxima two piece steel weaver style bases for Browning BLR. When placed into receiver and torqued to factory spec, the bases are slightly off level to each other. If I put bubble level on both they are close, like...
