    Griffin armament

    I also bought my can through a local dealer. My son bought his through silencer shop. We’ve both bought mounts directly from griffin and had no problems. The minimalist ti break at 1oz for about $100 is a really nice piece. Taper mount works damn well too.

    Griffin armament

    I’ve had a recce7 for around 12 years. No problems with it or the ~15 qd mounts I’ve gotten for it. My son bought the explorr 30. I honestly don’t know why they’re not more popular. It sounds great on his 16.5” 308, my 6.5 Grendel and 6.5 prc. A 6” 10oz can with no barrel length restrictions for...

    Tikkas and Suppressors

    Which griffin are you using? I’ve been using a recce7 for about 10yrs and my son just got an explorr out of jail. The explorr is very attractive for my next can. I’m hoping for a Black Friday sale and I may just buy 2 of them.

    Neat little score

    Likewise. Getting in a “favor doing contest” can be a lot of fun too!

    Neat little score

    Maybe try no criticism until you’ve read and understood what has been posted? The guy said he asked for a 6 pack. The old man insisted on giving more. Sometimes you insult the giver if you refuse the gift, especially an old timer that’s offering up a rifle he’s probably had for decades. I...

    Suppressor tips?

    Thanks for the feedback. I was actually planning to primarily use it on a 17hmr and the additional versatility is a bonus for me.

    Suppressor tips?

    Is there anything in particular you don’t like about the Optimus micro? It’s on my short list for a second rimfire can and the fact that you can use it on 223 seems like a huge bonus to me. Am I missing something?

    Savage Model 111 7mm Remington mag build ideas

    I have an old inherited 110 in 243 in my safe as well. I’ve come close to starting the rebuild a couple times, but I can buy a tikka and any upgrades I want for it for similar money and have a way better rifle.

    Crimping for 6.8 Western?

    How are you guys liking this round? Any body shooting it out of a 20” barrel? What kind of velocity are you seeing? I’m considering switching to this once my wsm barrel is toasted. Ammo is fairly available in my area, at least enough so to build up a pile of brass for reloading.

    Do you regret getting your suppressor?

    Do yourself a favor and get a can for your kids’ 22. Doesn’t have to be expensive and most are completely hearing safe. You can shoot 22 subsonic and hear the firing pin drop! Blows me away that some don’t like shooting suppressed. I haven’t shot my braked m70 in years cause it’s the only rifle...

    Tikka 300 WSM magazine options for extra COAL

    I’m out of town for a couple days but I think they seat pretty easily with the factory bottom metal from what I remember. As long as there’s only 2 in the mag or the bolt is open. I remember being able to get it to latch with 3 down and bolt closed if I gave it a healthy whack to seat it. Snow...

    Tikka 300 WSM magazine options for extra COAL

    thanks for the explanation. I’ll have to take a look at mine. It’s so close to locking in with 3, I may be able to get away with just shimming the bottom metal.

    Tikka 300 WSM magazine options for extra COAL

    If anyone is interested, I have 2 or 3 of the HCA mags and their bottom metal if anyone is interested. I’m not on here much but Pm me and I’ll make sure to check back in for the next couple days.

    do all 30 06 load

    This is a 150gr factory ttsx. I shot a wt doe with it at 220yds with my 22” m70. Frontal shot, found the bullet in the ham. I purposely aimed for bone to help this bullet expand. Obviously the deer died but I’d say performance would be lacking beyond 350yds. Meat damage was extensive after the...

    Tikka 6MM ARC / 6.5 Grendel

    I think a 10rnd 5.56 pmag fits 6 or 7 Grendel rounds with the standard follower. There is a x39 follower available.

    Tikka 6MM ARC / 6.5 Grendel

    I have my son shooting a Grendel for hunting purposes. 6arc wasn’t around when I put this rifle together (it’s an ar, not a tikka). He’s solid with it from field positions to ~350yds. From a bench I’ve seen him make first round hits to 700 yds. I’m loading a 107tmk over H335. Haven’t set up my...

    Shed Hunting: Where’s the beef and what’s the best way to manage it?

    I get a little hot about these kinds of issues because I live in an area where there’s a well known lack of LE. All of the experiences I posted about earlier happened within a 10 day span. It’s an easy drive to my area from the front range and people take full advantage of the fact that they...
