    Tikka 9.3x62

    100% full pass throughs, massive damage (longest shot so far has been 62 paces) & everything dead within 5yds. The express sights I soldered on make running shots much easier.

    Tikka 9.3x62

    9.3x62 really isn't all that bad. This is my 20" Rem 721, weighing in at a whopping 7lb 7oz shooting 285gn Prvi bullets at 2560fps...... first shots & I'm not going to lie, I was apprehensive. Very pleasantly surprised, it feels more like a push than a snap. The 9.3x57 is no slouch either. I...

    ULUL 223 Wylde and 6x45 portless barrel thread

    I'm still in for a 6x45. Would've preferred <$100, (I couldn't give a fig for stainless or 4140) but at under <$200 it's still worth it.

    Ultralight Ultralight Rifles

    I tried the 7.62x39 & it was much more difficult to extract than .223 It's doable, but I'd hate to think I needed a quick second shot. .300 Ham'r is hands down the best .30 cal option.

    Replacing an extra fast action spinning rod. Recommendations?-Happy Update!

    I used nothing but cheap spinning rods for years, until I bought a decent quality (+/- $200) model. You couldn't pay me to go back now. I'm sure St. Croix will help out & if they do, I'd definitely buy another.

    Why not the .358 Winchester for Iowa Whitetails?

    If I could only keep one...... 220gr Speer Hot Core at 2450fps & it'll knock ANYTHING'S dick into the dirt inside of 400yds. We really ought to start a petition to get Speer making that bullet again. My .358 is by far the killingest rifle I own & when they start throwing dirt on me, it'll be...

    Lever Action anyone?

    Why? You got to bow range, you killed it. Other than a longer track, what would you have achieved with a bow that you didn't with the rifle?

    Cooking knives

    Another vote for Misen. I use an 8" chef's & a 6" utility for literally everything. I've had them 3 years & they've been to the stones twice now & get hit on a smooth steel every use. They have nice heft & balance, nice ergonomics & are a LOT of knife for the money.

    WTS Burris 2-7 scope

    Burris Fullfield 2, 2-7x35 with the BDC reticle. Gently used with a couple of tiny marks on the turret caps. No ring marks. I personally shot 20 rounds under it, then found the Ultralight SWFA I really wanted. I bought it as "unused, no box" but can't verify that. No longer in production...

    Best T3X mounting solution for the $$$

    Grab a mountain tactical rail & be done with it. You won't need a 20moa rail unless you're planning on BIG distances.

    16” optimal barrel length- caliber?

    6 Arc, one of the Grendels, .300 Ham'r, 6x45, 6.5 Arc, .223....... Pick your poison. I'm just getting set to build another UL-UL straight pull AR in .300 ham'r for a friend, specifically for your exact needs. I lent him mine for a couple of hunts & according to him, it 'better mousetraps' all...
