    Stock Upgrade for Weatherby 307 Range XP

    Keg bravo? The 307 is a rem700 footprint so any rem700 stick you like will work

    Mixing camo patterns?

    I know movement is the #1 way to get busted by ungulates. I have some true timber lightweight hoodie, insulated bibs and a heavyweight jacket. I have a synthetic shirt as well. I recently got the first lite pro program as I work as a wildlife biologist and have just been over thinking the...

    Mixing camo patterns?

    That’s what I’m trying to do. Especially since I can get a discount on the first lite stuff. Just curious if the camo difference would bust me faster

    Mixing camo patterns?

    I have several truetimber strata pieces. I like the pattern for the hunting I do in East Texas and it seems very versatile in that Ive worn it in central texas and hiking in Oregon and it seemed to blend in everywhere. I found some deals on first lite but the closest camo pattern to the strata...

    Hornady CX vs Barnes LRX

    I agree. I use the LRX and keep it 2000+ fps and aim for shoulders/high shoulders generally.

    Hornady CX vs Barnes LRX

    To further this point. I shoot the 127LRX factory loads out of a 6.5 CM, avg. MV is around 2725 fps out of my 20" barrel last time I checked. Furthest shot I've had on game was a 250yd shot on a wild hog and a 200yd shot on a whitetail doe. Most were short tracking jobs, some were bang flops...

    308

    Tikka is highly recommended for good reason. Savages arent the prettiest or the absolute smoothest actions but they do shoot well. I havent owned a cz600 but I’m curious about them and the colt tachunter that is roughly cz600 based. Also may I ask do you plan to tinker with the rifle or just...

    Camo pattern comparison? True Timber strata vs VSX

    As the title states I’m looking for comparisons between the true timber strata, pattern, and the true timber VSX pattern. Most of my stuff is the strata pattern and I have loved their versatility. But I have seen the new cabelas instinct line but it’s in the vsx pattern. How similar are they?

    Athlon Optics

    I found this review of the athlon heras spr 4-20x50 it’s on the lower end but the review ended up dropping it three times for the review and the glass or tracking wasn’t affected https://weaponsman.com/athlon-heras-spr-4-20x50-sfp-scope-review/

    New rifle recs?

    I’ve been looking at the tikka t3x line, the lite has plenty of good reviews and recommendations. I will strongly have to consider that line of rifles. Also has anyone had any experience with the Colt cbx tax hunter rifle?

    New rifle recs?

    I like that the tikkas have such a strong following but that 307 has just all the things I’m looking for

    New rifle recs?

    I also forgot to mention elk as potential game harvested but that will most likely be archery. I will have to give tikka a look. Just the t3x doesn’t come with a threaded barrel

    New rifle recs?

    I currently have a savage axis 2 in 6.5CM (shown below) that has a custom paintjob, bedded the action and a new bolt body, handle and bolt lift kit. Its been a decent rifle and I really like the way it looks now and it fairly handy and light weight. But i am looking for a nicer-ish rifle for...

    New rifle choices

    I have a savage axis that I bought to get into bolt actions cause it was cheap and it shot good. harvested a few animals with it. So Im not against them. I considered getting a 110 action and putting it in a different stock

    The solus does check a bunch of boxes except for weight. Its on the heavier end of what I want for a total package.

    New rifle choices

    I really like the 6.8 western on paper, but dont know how I feel about it long term especially since I dont reload. I mainly use the 6.5 CM for everything I do. I was just playing with the idea of getting something a step up in size to round out my small collection and the of chance I want to...

    m I like the 6.5 CM the comment about the '06 was just about adding something else to lineup. The waypoint is the one I keep coming back to but I will have to look into the seekins
