    Montana Rifle Co. Junction 308Win Field Evaluation

    Mine, purchased in 2016 had some qc issues on fit and finish that they partially fixed, but is still my go to as it is accurate with anything in throw at it, reliable, has a great trigger, and just the right weight IMO for a 30-06 not being hauled up a mountain. Would roll the dice on another...

    New Winchester Model 70 Super Grades. Good?

    Yeah most of their models are scarc le in 270 now. I want to also roll the dice again on an extreme weather 270. I’m not a tikka fanboy (I dislike the small trigger guard, low capacity dbm, and 1 size fits all action), but outside of them and maybe bergara I think most factory guns involve...

    Help choosing ideal chambering/rifle to shoot lead free projectiles.

    Tikka in 270, grab Barnes TTSX or LRX.

    Any experiences with these? The SD 98 looks like my jam if it had a win70 style trigger https://parkwestarms.com/pages/catalog

    New Winchester Model 70 Super Grades. Good?

    Sample size of 2 Not a super grade, but have a 2019 vintage extreme weather in 30-06 that throws patterns vs groups. I like the action and format so much that I’m considering salvaging the action for a new barrel and McMillan stock upgrade. Fit and finish are excellent. Have a NIB 70...

    Howa VS Tikka

    I just bought both. For me a tikka hunting rifle requires the purchase of a recoil pad, an aftermarket bottom metal as the trigger guards are undersized for gloved use and getting used to a light & crisp trigger with loads of overtravel. A howa needs a new stock and potentially a timney...

    Not cleaning

    Posting this to not add to the off-topic nature of the the recent chamber dimension thread. For those who have extensively experimented with not cleaning their bores, what do you do with moisture exposure from field conditions or high humidity? Let rust go and shoot it out?

    $2500 Western rifle, what?

    Nosler 21 in 280 ai or 6.5 CM. Checked a few out this weekend and the fit and finish is excellent, I’m sure they will shoot stuff dead. Or a Tikka shooting TMKs. You’ll save on the rifle and on therapy bills as you will never run short of confirmation bias from the hive mind to make your heart...
