    CA B3 Bear down

    Congrats, oldskool. I'm heading up to the Alps this week. Seems likes acorns are what to hunt this time of year.

    About to buy outdoorsmans digiscope setup. Any thoughts for/against?

    If I understand correctly, you have a dedicated iPhone for digiscoping? If so, I don't really see any negatives to the Outdoosmans. The threading is fine, so be sure not to cross-thread.

    plantar fasciitis, the last 10%

    No plugs for the Strassburg Sock? Fixed my (granted, relatively mild) case of PF in about a month. The Strassburg Sock™ | Heel Pain Relief | Official Manufacturer Website Sleeping with it takes some getting used to, though.

    cA Black Bear Hibernation

    I spent 3 days in the Trinity Alps over this last weekend. Started in Hobo Gulch and then moved over to Virgin Creek. I saw no hobos or virgins. The only bears I saw were on the drive to/from the Virgin Creek trail head... a beautiful cinnamon sow with cubs on the way in and a black boar on the...

    cA Black Bear Hibernation

    I'm interested, as well. I still have a bear tag, and I was considering heading up to the Trinity Alps for Thanksgiving weekend. Wondering if it's too late.

    Effective Range of .243 on Antelope

    ^^ This is how it's done. Energy transfer to the animal is the key. I'd keep the terminal energy above 800 ft-lbs to be safe...but the bullet must be designed to reliably expand at the associated terminal velocity.

    Kifaru Order Placed!

    You, sir, have excellent taste. I just got the exact same setup, and I possess various scotches and a fondue set.

    Going quiet

    OP, you're going to have to either chop the barrel or walk around with a 33-ish inch barrel. I'd chop it considering how well the .308 does in a short-barrel configuration. For reference, an 18" barreled .308 will cost you about 150 fps over a 26" with a 168 grain bullet. TBAC is tough to beat...

    Need a smith

    +1 for Short Action Customs. Lots of good 'smiths out there, but Mark is one that I can vouch for from personal experience.

    Browning Xbolt long range hunter

    GKPrice, I can't tell if you're agreeing or disagreeing with me. WRT, SAAMI specs, the chamber dimensions don't have anything to do with accuracy on there own. It's the relation between the chamber dimensions and the ammo being fired. Then we can start to talk OBT, OCW, barrel harmonics and the...

    Browning Xbolt long range hunter

    wild gypsy and 5MilesBack nailed it. Load development is the same process for custom and factory rifles. A 'smith may chamber for a certain bullet/seating depth, or use tight-chambered match reamer (probably not for hunting rifle), some will even develop a load for that rifle, but that doesn't...

    I still can't believe Lorenzo said customs guns have to be shot with custom ammo.

    Vortex Razor HD old models

    That would be my guess. Same thing happens with all sorts of equipment over all manner of hobbies. I've seen it over and over within the precision rifle optic crowd. Even Schmidt & Bender and Hensoldt weren't immune. For what it's worth, I picked up a new Razor HD 27-60x a couple months ago...
