    No response. So you’re not interested in selling them after all?

    Hiking Boots

    If you have low volume feet, you’re probably going to need a European last. I have narrow/low volume feet and Crispi Valdres and Briksdal both work well for me. I think the Briksdal would be a little overkill for your needs. Salomon fit well too for low volume.

    Knife sharpener

    Check out the $15.00 Work sharp pocket knife sharpener. It’s a few ounces and really small and works great. I have one in my pack and inside the door pocket of my truck.

    NULA rifles

    I agree. It’d be hard to go wrong. Especially if it’s in decent shape. Worst case is use it for a few seasons and then have OutKast customize it or rechamber to something you’d prefer.

    NULA rifles

    The stocks on the Forbes rifles were made by Melvin and his crew in Granville. Before the wheels feel off, the majority of them were stocked and bedded by the NULA guys, so I don’t think those were the issue. The issue with some of the Forbes rifles came later on and was with machine work and...

    NULA rifles

    I had Glenn/OutKast chop, thread and cerakote a 700 .243. They also made a spacer to increase the LOP of the stockys vg that it’s in and put some foam in the stock to deaden it a little. Richard is the stock guy and worked for Melvin too. They do great work. I’m going to have them stock a .280...

    NULA rifles

    There is nothing out there like Melvins rifles. Nothing against the Fieldcraft and or Wilson, they just aren’t NULAs. The former are probably more refined in appearance, but the magic is in the handmade stock and how stiff the original design is which allows for full length bedding. When you...

    Does Energy have the potential to affect terminal performance?

    Hey man, my mind is plenty open. Was I skeptical of the .223 thing? Yes. Have I changed my mind? Yes. I think you need to be more open minded to the fact that you’re trying to rationalize the use of a parameter that has no bearing on killing as it’s been used in the past. What past...

    Does Energy have the potential to affect terminal performance?

    The basis of starting this thread/debate all over again reminds me of the guy we all know that buys all the cool expensive tools/toys and then makes life complicated trying to find a use for them. Some pointy head decided that energy HAS to be relevant to how bullets kill at some point and...

    Fresh Meat.....

    Yes. It really is since he’s an obvious wealth of information…if he could just put it out there without the unnecessary banter. It started out over here on RS pretty good and then the wheels fell off.

    Fresh Meat.....

    Well. That didn’t take long. We should’ve started an over/under thread on how long it would take.

    water line question

    Whatever you do, don’t use corrugated roll pipe. It’ll plug with debris hanging up on corrugations or bc it’s too easy to get bellies in it. Use sdr35 (green pipe usually) and it comes gasketed or solvent weld. Schedule 40 is outrageous right now. All you need is a foot of minimum cover with the...

    Cold bore zero versus (very) Hot bore zero “test”

    Some of you guys are over thinking this wayyyy too much. The simple fact that he’s dealing with mirage eliminates any “definitive” results within a statistical method as defined by pointy heads. He clearly illustrates his objective, which is to show that all the guys complaining about “hot”...

    Q&A for ZCO 4-20x50mm Field Eval

    Interesting. Form has displayed barrel break-in is a myth in other posts. Maybe he’s stumbled upon something else…$4k scopes need broken in, not the rifles they’re mounted on 😂 For the guys that own these and you drop it…you better go ahead and throw it down 3 more times to make sure it comes...
