    What kind of .410 do you have and how much extension are you after?

    Extra wide sleeping bag… am I crazy?

    I had El Coyote build me an extra wide and extra long quilt. I'm 100% a side sleeper, and its the most comfortable camping sleep I've ever had. That being said, I went a little too big, the extra wide is more bulk than I really need. I'm 6'3", 220, so I'd go long again, but regular width...

    Custom rifle maker - recommendations wanted.

    I can’t recommend Van at Plains Precision Rifles enough. He took on my build when I’d already bought all the parts, and had no problems Turing out a gun that weighs just under 8 pounds suppressed and shoots .8” groups at 300 yards. Great guy to work with too.

    Suppressor Timetables

    I did fingerprints with SS probably in 2015 and haven’t had to do them ever again, even when I did paper Form 1s I just ordered printed out cards of my electronic prints from them to send in. Now you will need to update you mug shot yearly still.

    Hunting near US/Mexico border

    I've hunted two seasons along the border in Arizona so far. The first year, we were really close to the border, and there was sign of illegals everywhere we went. We came across a lone female wearing camo, carrying the ubiquitous black water jug, crying, and asking for a ride. I gave her some...

    Lightweight Tikka t3x stock (peak 44, stockysstock, wildcat)

    I might be a little conditioned to it, I’ve been shooting heavy recoiling guns longer than I have been hunting. But I’ve also been shooting suppressed almost all the time, so I forget about the effects of muzzle blast. Personally, I seek out light weight first and deal with the rest, a good...

    Lightweight Tikka t3x stock (peak 44, stockysstock, wildcat)

    That Tikka is in 300wsm, and very light. The Stockys recoil pad was not helping, I put one of the limb savers on it, and that cured the problem. I’ve never found much recoil reduction in different stock designs.

    Lightweight Tikka t3x stock (peak 44, stockysstock, wildcat)

    I put a Stockys on mine, and I’m really happy with it. They have sales often enough to really bring the price down.

    Thunderbeast POI shift

    That would be a very low amount of shift from my experience, I'd be really pleased with that.

    Thunder Beast Suppressor CB Advice.

    My only TBAC can is a Takedown 22 direct thread, but I always put some anti-seize on the threads of all my taper mount devices, and usually a little on the taper itself. Biggest thing is to not tighten it down while the can and mount are hot.

    Howa M1500 300 PRC Troubles

    I’d also check the mounts and rings and also a different scope if possible. I had a bad Athlon out of the box myself.

    6.5 WSM Load for Youth

    The rifle I built for my nieces and nephews to hunt with is a Savage in .260 Rem, cut to 16”, handloads with the 123 Absolute Hammer. They’re right at 2800, and the recoil hasn’t been a problem. I have some of the 109AH that I’m getting ready to try. I don’t think the bullet will be the...

    6.5 WSM Load for Youth

    I'd get a Howa Mini in 6arc for the lad. Its a fantastic cartridge, great to work on shooting basics, and enough for game at reasonable distances. Its slim and short, so it more naturally fits kids than a regular action with a short stock.

    NFA trusts

    The newer style trusts that they’re doing have an approved process for easily adding and removing responsible people. I had my original NFA trust written about 2010 by a localish lawyer who later was disbarred for SEC violations, so he wasn’t available when I wanted to make some improvements...

    Anyone have experience w/ long range fuel tanks?

    I added a 42 gallon auxiliary tank between the frame rails on my '14 Power Wagon, its where the factory spare tire went originally. It has dual pumps and they are switch controlled. It was an experiment and needs a little refinement, but 70 gallons of basically invisible fuel on board is tough...

    300 WSM mono?

    I've killed one spike and my wife killed a doe pronghorn with 162 Absolute Hammers in my 300wsm, 3150 at the muzzle. I'm really pleased with mono performance, I'm switching all my hunting guns over, but I reload so its a little easier. I found the 150 E-Tip to be a really good shooting bullet...

    Garage door opener issue

    It’s probably the sensor beam or the closing force needs to be turned up a little.

    6mm ARC Lightweight Backpacking Rifle Build

    Gotcha, I think it might fit. I could sell you the one I have for cheap instead of returning it.

    6mm ARC Lightweight Backpacking Rifle Build

    Looks like the 3 rounders are for .223 only, too narrow for the 7.62 bottom metal. I might cut up a mag to make my own though.

    I just ordered one, we’ll see how it goes.
