    Sell or Send back first?

    a 7mm or 300 isnt going to reliably anchor an elk on lung shots anyway and i think deliberately aiming away from the center of vitals to try to anchor one is a bad idea most of the time. A 270 isn't a handicap that requires special bullets or reduced ranges for 98% of hunter's capabilities.

    Stockys ultra carbon tikka vertical grip

    Thanks for the input. Recoil lug seems fine thus far. UM is basically doing what I asked for in your "Custom Gun Options" thread last spring, but offering with all the cerakotes, flutes, carbon, etc..

    Stockys ultra carbon tikka vertical grip

    Just found this thread searching for @p_ham input on stockys being worth bedding or not as the inlet isn’t flawless on the rokstok that showed up today. Looks like I’m in good company with rings/scope setup. I think these UM highs will be good for me if I throw that leather cheek rest they are...

    Nosler AB LR 168gr bullets in a 280AI

    Did you look at the vitals? Entrance and exit are only part of the story.

    Nosler AB LR 168gr bullets in a 280AI

    Have you tried N555 with the 160 class pills? I’d think it would do ok. Thought about trying that if nobody buys my saum.

    Another one of Paul’s great work.

    Is that a factory wood stock? What all did he do? Barrel and coating is the obvious part.

    Tinder/Hinge/dating apps in general

    Met my wife on Bumble in the minneapolis area circa 2019. My profile pic was a selfie i took with pack llamas on my way out of a successful elk hunt. She's a little different politically than me, not interested in guns, etc but we share enough in common that our differences are pretty easily...

    Ballistic Rangefinder

    Intrigued by this one. Beyond waiting to hear more about glass quality, lots of bad reports about vectronix customer service/warranty work which is a big deal because it seems like rangefinders are about the least reliable gear out there even if they cost thousands..

    Ballistic Rangefinder

    I’ve had a sig 2400 ABS for a long time and it’s always been good to me. Really liked using a ballistic silver on leica geovid hd-b binos too but they had issues in the cold that got two pairs warrantied so I sold the 2nd warranty replacement pair before using them.

    Barrel Threads.

    Thanks for sharing. Love the solution driven responses rather than just saying “your barrel is too thin”.

    Montana Rifle Co. is shut down

    Phone numbers and emails from their current website?

    custom rifle suggestions

    Nothin wrong with that. Some people can apparently fit stocks to rifles but struggle with how high to set zero at 100 yards to be on at 200 or following a scope manufacturer's instructions for adjusting a locking turret.

    Montana Rifle Co. is shut down

    Someone bought the rights since this thread nearly 4 years ago and they are manufacturing rifles currently.

    Centerfire rifles - your path

    Can get a 223 t3x compact for sub $700 right now, still might do that but my shooting season is mostly over. Spring has come and now it's habitat improvement season on my land. Have a pile of 223 ammo that was supposed to get burned up Jan-April..

    Need some input on these scopes.

    Then my vote is a trijicon credo 2.5-15 if you're looking for SFP.

    Need some input on these scopes.

    why 4-24 over a 3-18 tenmile?

    Centerfire rifles - your path

    Probably doesn't want to do it for obvious reasons but if PVA just ripped off the PBB lite hybrid (tikka lite contour until it hits 0.75" then no taper to muzzle) i think it'd serve them well. Make it a 1.2 or 1.25 shank for m700 pattern actions. The "cant tell a difference if not on paper"...

    Centerfire rifles - your path

    Barrel on order is an ACE tikka lite contour in 7.5 twist. Going to finish @ 18" and be a wylde chamber, maybe add a hair more throat. The factory barrel shot alright with some bullets, not great. Didn't like 75 ELDs. Just have a hard time settling for a barrel that doesn't shoot near everything...

    Restoring Accuracy, Remington 700

    Good share. I know certain smiths give considerable attention to the ignition system to make it ideal and lots seem to ignore it unless there are problems. I'm pretty ignorant on all the details involved but seems its a good thing to keep on top of.
