    Looking for info or guides for fishing the Kenai in Alaska

    Did a halibut trip with Fishology several years ago, would go back to them. I don’t know if they offer the lodge experience or not

    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44mm SHR-Mil Q&A

    If I am, it’s not apparent to me when I’m holding the rifle up. I am using the same natural positioning I do with all my other rifles, getting into the rifle with my eyes closed and just finding myself too short on eye relief. I’m short in prone, seated, standing, doesn’t matter. To be fair I...

    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44mm SHR-Mil Q&A

    Has anyone had trouble with this scope in dovetail style rings (ie sportsmatch/UM) on a tikka? Maybe I have a long neck but I finally got around to mounting this scope and I’ve run out of room between the turret housing and the front ring to get my eye relief set appropriately. I don’t think I...

    Sold SWFA 6x42 mil

    If you have one of these you’d part with please let me know. Building a budget tikka in .308 and can’t think of a better scope for this package. Let me know if you have one you’d part with. Thanks!

    Best Field Tripod for Hunting - Want to Upgrade

    How has this setup performed for you this year? I recently left/lost my cheapy bogpod tripod in the field and am in the market. It worked just fine and I was able to make lethal shots out to 400 with it, but the intrigue of the multipurpose tripod has me thinking hard about a glassing/shooting...

    Help me age this elk

    Gents - this is an area I’m not very familiar with. I have to turn these in as part of a special hunt I was part of and thought the bull looked like he was on the decline but could be wrong. They are the lower incisors by the way. Tell me what you think!

    Christensen FFT - bipod stud/rail

    I did not. I have contemplated using one screw and bedding the rail to the stock without a release agent (aka just epoxy-ing the rail to stock), but have not had the guts to do that either. I don’t know what I’m going to do, might have my gunsmith handle it, just haven’t had time to be honest...

    Christensen FFT - bipod stud/rail

    Finally got around to taking the barrel off to install the pic rail. I started unscrewing the original bipod stud and could hear what sounded like something moving in a hard foam. As light as the stock is, I’m guessing it has a hollow core filled with the foam. I wouldn’t recommend attempting...

    Christensen FFT - bipod stud/rail

    Called Christensen, they referred me to a YouTube video they did on installing a stud. Said it would be no different with the FFT stock. Bought a B&T rail fastener and a pic rail so just need to drill the holes, will keep the thread posted once I get to it. Now I just need to find out if I can...

    Christensen FFT - bipod stud/rail

    Has anyone installed a second sling stud or installed a picatinny rail on the forend of an FFT stock (carbon fiber)? I have never drilled into a carbon stock but not opposed if I’m not going to damage anything. Probably just need to call Christensen but curious if this crowd has done it. I want...
