    Have been wondering how Sitka blacktail compares to moose? Or even dall sheep for that matter. Dall sheep is by far the best meat I’ve had followed by moose closely.

It was a nice design that was a fairly long suppressor but most of the length was back down the barrel which gave the rifle a great balance and minimal added length. Are there...
