    Potential new build questions - 7 Saum/300 WSM/6.5 prc

    I built a 300 prc and really like the gun however I’m thinking I’d like to build something a little more compact and shave about a pound and a half off my 9.5 pound 300 prc. I was considering the 7 saum or 300 WSM or maybe 6.5 prc. This will be a dedicated hunting rig most likely going in a...

    Patching kuiu waypoint duffle

    My wife and I used this bag a few years ago going to Alaska on a caribou hunt. Bag works great. Prolly bigger than we needed but functioned well. Somewhere along the way the airline was gracious enough to damage it. I finally got around to repairing it and used aqua seal. I cleaned the area with...

    Arrow rest advice and feedback - QAD/Hamskea

    Organizing gun case for flight?

    Laid out what I’m taking in my case on the flight to Alaska. Just wanted a second opinion before I go whacking away at foam. I’d prefer to keep the bolt and mag in if that is kosher with tsa and wasn’t going to cut foam for those. I’ll have a box of 10 mm buffalo bore in there as well but wasn’t...

    300 prc build complete. What groups are you getting?

    Finally picked up my 300 prc and got the scope mounted up. Spent this week working on loads and may have found a good recipe. Still may try and tweak it if possible. So far I have around 45-50 rounds down the tube. Gun was built by Alonso precision rifles and it turned out flawless. 300 prc...

    Scope rings mounting questions

    Just picked up my 300 prc today and tossed the scope on real quick just to check ring height and mounting. I have a couple of questions. 1. The rear ring doesn’t sit 100% on the integrated rail on the defiance anti x action. It either hangs off the front or the back. With it adjusted all the...

    Elk jewelry for my wife

    So a few years ago my wife had a necklace made for me by her cousin that is a sterling silver arrow head with the ivory tooth inset and my birth stone. It was the first bull I had ever killed and I did it with my bow. I wear it daily and rarely take it off. It’s a special piece to me and even...

    Couple questions if you don’t mind

    Considering the nightforce nx8 4-32 on a custom 300 prc build. Gun will weigh 7.5 - 7.75 pounds without glass and rings. Question is NF ultralite rings or apa? Also, 50 mm obj on 20 moa rail and m24 CF barrel. Which height that would still allow for flip up scope caps. One quick question. Can...

    Sitka cloudburst in Alaska?

    I’m headed to Alaska mid September this year for a drop caribou hunt with my wife. I have a set of Sitka cloudburst. Been used twice but not in any serious storm. Worked just fine.

    H1000 - price gouging!

    Man I’ve been out of the reloading game for a while. Jeez it’s hard to find stuff. Currently looking for 215 Berger’s in .308 and h1000. Found some h1000 but it’s $640 for 1 8 pound jug. Seems a little high to me! Lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
