    Who else hunts with a sub 8lb magnum rifle?

    I shoot a 300PRC in nearly the lightest rifle I could build without spending silly amounts of money. Grayboe Trekker Trijicon Tenmile 3-18x44 FFP Christensen Arms Carbon Barreled Action Triggertech Primary Dead Air Keymo Muzzle Brake I can't remember exactly what this setup weighs off the top...

    I thought I needed a new “big game” hunting rifle

    I started with the Sandman-S as my first can as well running Keymo adapter. Now I've added the Diligent Defense Enticer Ti w/ key mo adapter as my primary precision rifle can.

    I thought I needed a new “big game” hunting rifle

    I'd advise if you're going to go down in caliber, only go as small as 6mm CM. Some states have 6mm as a minimum for big game hunting so a .223 would not be legal for use on Big Game in many states. My next rifle will be in 6CM because I realized that I do not currently own a 6mm bore rifle. I...

    Do you take a backup rifle on hunts?

    Absolutely yes.

    Best can for a ,223?

    I've been absolutely in love with my Otter Creek Labs Polonium. I went K but they offer the pretty standard K/S/L models so the size and sound reduction is kind of up to you. Bonus of the polonium is its actually a 6mm can so you can shoot up to .243/6CM in it. This was done to make it not so...

    Tenmile and Credo are the exact same scope

    I just wanted to pop in here and say that I took a 3-18x44 FFP Tenmile with me from Houston, TX to Queenstown, New Zealand last week and the rifle was bounced around in a truck for 2 days, a side by side for a day, a plane ride, endured baggage handlers at 3 different airports on the way there...

    So, you went smaller caliber, but not down to .223…

    My caliber by time continuum goes something like this: .223REM/.260REM/.308WIN/.270WIN/7RM/300PRC I would seem to be the counter cultural one on here I guess. I find the heavier high BC bullets buck the wind better in West Texas and cross canyon shots out west. My 260REM is a heavy target...

    Maven RS.3 5-30x50 FFP mil/mil Q&A

    @sndmn11 For a post that is supposed to be evaluating an optic in certain respects I don't think I saw the words "pass" or "fail" appear anywhere in the entire post, and I looked. Twice.

    Tenmile and Credo are the exact same scope

    I'd be curious to see the 4.5-30 Tenmile being that its MSRP is getting pretty dern close to the 3K mark.

    Zeiss scope rings- good quality?

    I realize this thread is old but I've been seeing Zeiss rings catch some heat for slipping by a well respected member on RS. I am curious if anyone else has had issues with optics slipping in these now that they've been on the market for a while? I am looking to outfit 3 different rifles with...

    Zeiss Conquest V4

    I had a Conquest V4 4-16x44 that went on a couple hunts and several range trips and it was always shooting on for me. I never dropped it, either accidentally or on purpose but it rode on a side by side for 2 different week long western hunts and I've been known to drive like I'm in the Baja...

    Q&Q Zeiss LRP S3 6-36x56mm Field Eval

    Form, the Zeiss rings that you state had issues, were they the Zeiss Precision Ultralight rings with the built in bubble level? Or some other Zeiss ring? I have one pair of these and like them but I haven't intentionally beaten on them either. If there are other rings with integral bubble...

    Trijicon Tenmile 3-18x44 - 0 or 20 moa mount?

    Run the 20 MOA, you'll be fine. I have a 3-18x44 mounted on a 300PRC on a 20 MOA rail and its been fine for a handful of range trips. I've been so happy with it that I ordered another one in 4.5-30x56 and I plan to move my 3-18x44 to my 308 and the 300PRC will wear the 4.5-30x56.

    Experienced based opinions needed on this scope Zeiss Conquest V4

    If you can push your budget just *slightly* higher you can find Trijicon 3-18x44 for like $8XX and those are extremely reliable optics.

    Scope Field Eval Explanation and Standards

    Are the results of this test posted anywhere yet? I jumped around and scanned all 12 pages of this thread trying to find them but they've eluded me which is shocking considering how extensive I was expecting the results post to be.

    New Truck/Camper/SxS setup....your thoughts?

    I was on a waiting list but decided to buy a house instead. The Intech just wasn't big enough. Jokes aside, I still want one and once our home is built I will likely get back on that list.
