    Silencerco Scythe TI review

    Is there anywhere to find measured noise data between no brake, brake, and various suppressors in dB? I don’t own a sound meter, and know my phone won’t accurately report at these levels… but I’m genuinely curious what the differences would be. Subjectively, my 6.5PRC with a brake sounds like...

    Why the NR HATE?? Let's fix it!

    I see the word “entitled” only applies to NR applicants, not to residents owning 1/4 acre of land in town expecting to hunt freely on someone else’s property so long as it is within the boundaries of the state they just moved to. Ah, I understand now. Get off my lawn you entitled NR! I own...

    Why the NR HATE?? Let's fix it!

    I think the OP was doing a good thing by trying to find a way for hunters to begin advocating as a group for the common good, and it went completely sideways as it usually does…. And so goes our continued losing battle of a divided group of hunters vs an organized group of anti-hunters. That...

    Silencerco Scythe TI review

    I waited about 5mo for my Scythe TI. First can, and honestly I’m super happy with it. My kids were laughing hysterically at the sound difference between it and the brake I had on the rifle before. I have to say that I’m quite pleased with my purchase. I don’t have anything else to compare it to...

    Silencerco Scythe TI review

    Mine just cleared yesterday! I can’t offer much of a review since this is my first suppressor, but sure looks good on the Seekins Element. Looking forward to getting it to the range!

    Suppressor wait times

    Heck yea! Just got the approval notice! 146 days since submitted for an individual form 4. Going to pick up my SilencerCo Scythe-Ti ASAP!

    Suppressor wait times

    I have a submission date of 9/16/2023 and some of the recent approvals I’m seeing here give me some hope that I could be 1-2mo out. Hopefully I’m not on the other end as some of you guys are around a year! I’m excited to get my first suppressor mounted and see what these things are all about.

    Globe insert with small fiber optic?

    Just wanted to follow-up on this. Any progress on the sight for a Knight ultralight? I ended up 3d printing a globe insert for a 0.010” fiber this season, but would love to have your proper sight going forward!

    Suppressor wait times

    Brutal! What happens in that case? Do you move to the back of the line or have an opportunity to correct whatever is at fault?

    Football fans???

    Took my 9yo son to the Chiefs game at Arrowhead Stadium last night, which should give him some memories to last a lifetime with the coldest game in recorded history at that stadium! People were basically giving tickets away… can’t hardly imagine getting another set of playoff tickets for those...

    Seekins Havak Slam

    The current Seekins Element is already 5.5#. Someone buying this has to only be looking at it since it’s a folding stock, otherwise seems the Element checks all of the same boxes.

    Seekins Havak Slam

    When it in initially showed up in a Guns and Ammo magazine I believe the price point was $5k. For some reason I believe it was heavier than my Element, too. Would be good to confirm all of this. Interesting rifle for sure, but not what I’m needing for. That said, I’d recommend a Seekins...

    NL Pure experience not exactly positive

    I wouldn’t touch those ones with a 10’ pole. Who knows how many hands have touched and/or dropped them to receive the issues you encountered. To add insult to injury, you’d be sending thousands of dollars back to Swaro for repair to damage you didn’t cause, and that’s not exactly a fast turn...

    is the upgrade from 42mm to 50mm for lowlight worth it?

    My takeaway was there was no perceivable brightness gain in the 50mm, which made the switch to the NL with larger FOV an obvious choice. Both are far better than needed for legal shooting hours. I can generally spot animals 20-30mins+ outside of legal light with the NL, and quite a bit more if...

    Let's talk money. Budgets. Life.

    I have heard many similar stats and admit I’ve never dug into this… but I’m curious if those stats account for the fact that many people have multiple accounts. If I theoretically have 5 accounts of $150k each, do I just show up as 5 average Americans each with $150k total savings, or one...

    Exo Mountain K4?

    Yes, but can we just call it grey to not further empower wolves in the West?! [emoji51] I’d be all in on a gray K4 though. I’m curious what the multicam stats looked like in K3. I reluctantly chose Fusion on my K4 just because I wanted camo, though I would have greatly preferred multicam as a...

    Kuiu Proximity Review

    Hey Tim, I’m two seasons in with my Proximity set now and I absolutely love it. I’ve had mine down below freezing and up into 60s, and for me it manages temperatures changes very well. It’s not 100% windproof in the sense that I can blow air through it if I try, but it’s very restrictive. I have...

    Low Light Setups

    I haven’t personally had any issues with ranging, but also can’t speak for every possible scenario. I suppose I’ve been using the Xero for 5yrs or so without a problem, but your situations could be different? My general rule of thumb is that if I have an obstacle between me and the target that...

    Low Light Setups

    I’ll 2nd the Garmin Xero A1i sight. I’ve been using them since they first hit the market and don’t see myself ever going back to traditional pin sights unless hunting a state where electronic sights are illegal. The Garmin has a large sight ring, so you’ll end up with a bigger peep for...

    is the upgrade from 42mm to 50mm for lowlight worth it?

    A couple of years ago I had a pair of Swaro EL 10x42 and 10x50 and used them side by side for a while. Ultimately, I kept the 50s but have to say that I couldn’t notice much of any difference in low and no-light situations. Both were outstanding but truly splitting hairs between the two in...
