    Thoughts on the Tikka Forend Slide-on?

    I already added the Grip Adapter onto my factory Tikka T3x stock and I love it. I was wondering if any of you have had experience with the factory forend addition as well? It looks like it adds a more flat profile to the stock? Possibly better for shooting off of a bag, pack, or rest. Let me...

    Rifle Carry on Kuiu Packs??

    I recently picked up a new rifle and I want to try a different way to carry it on my pack. I'd like it to be fairly quickly accessible but secure enough to move around the mountains without one hand on my sling. I have a Kuiu pack.

    Favorite brush and mops for 6.5cm? Need sizing help

I picked up a Real Avid Gun Boss kit that's for .243/.260/6.5mm but the brushes seems to barely scratch the surface in the barrel, and...

    Anti-cant Setup. On Scope or Rail?

    @TK-421 so if I understand correctly, I should #1 shoulder the rifle in a position that is most comfortable (more vertical is preferred based on the chart) when mounting the scope. #2 install a scope mounted level and verify with a plumb bob. Then #3, take the rifle to a range and check for...

    Anti-cant Setup. On Scope or Rail?

    Apologize if this has been discussed already. I couldn't find any threads on the topic. I am setting up my new Tikka and scope combo and I want to add an anti-cant level to the gun. I'm not sure where to put it.... Do I put it on the scope or picatinny rail? Obviously the scope and rifle...

    Which Second Focal Plane Leupold Reticle?

    I'm picking up a Leupold VX-5HD (hate on the scope aside) what SFP reticle do you guys like? I'm between the Wind-plex, HTMR, and Duplex/firedot duplex. Figured I'd throw the question out there before I visit my local Sportsmans and look through what they have in stock. Thanks!
