    7mm-08 round for cow elk. Barnes 145gr LRX or 150gr TTSX?

    Of the two I'd go with the LRX. That said the 120 ttsx would be my choice in a 7mm-08 Sent from my SM-G996U using Tapatalk

    BFG T/A KO2s vs Falken Wildpeak A/T3W

    I've had them on my 2500HD for about 55k now. No complaints they tow well (at least up 10.5k, haven'ttowed heavier with them) do really good in the snow and wet weather and are decently quiet. Mine are starting to get a little noisier now but it's to be expected. My next set here soon will be...

    Favorite/best headlamp?

    I have two zebralights 18650 floody 4k color versions. Use one for working a grave yard shift on airplanes and one for hunting. I usually trash headlamps pretty regularly at work. I've had this one a couple years now. Besides smelling like jet fuel, hyd fluid and grease it works just as good as...

    New Reloader 7-08rem

    Probably gonna get the best velocity from cfe223. Big Game and varget are worth a shot too if you don't get the accuracy from the cfe. Barnes has load data listed on there site. Sent from my SM-G996U using Tapatalk

    Hard to beat the 7mm-08ai?

    You happen to have or load for a 7 SAW? Sent a Tikka off to get rebarreled in December to 7mm-08ai and smith convinced me of the merits of the SAW. I picked up 200 pieces of 7 SAW head stamped brass and dies. Just waiting on the rifle to get back to start load development. Sent from my SM-G996U...

    Suppressor Recommendations??

    I was in the same boat earlier this year. Ended up buying a TBAC Dominus CB. Light enough for my primary use, hunting and rated for my 10.5" SBR. Still in jail so I have no idea if it's gonna be the best choice for me but, on paper it fits the bill. That said I'm already looking at a dedicated...

    You're not gonna like the answer in that case lol. I had 1 point, my friend I went in on a party had 6. Resident. I had plans already to scout our 3-5th choices. Didn't even think this was a possibility. Sent from my SM-G996U using Tapatalk

    140 gr. or 150 gr. Barnes TTSX for an elk round?

    CFE 223 got it there with Lapua brass and Federal GM215M's. BL-C2 and Big Game got it pretty close to it too. Not traditional powders for a 7mm-08 I know but, if it works it works. Sent from my SM-G996U using Tapatalk

    140 gr. or 150 gr. Barnes TTSX for an elk round?

    When I lived in CA I used the 120 ttsx pretty much exclusively in my 7mm-08 Tikka. With a book max load of CFE 223 I was getting a muzzle velocity of 3240 fps. With the 140 ttsx and a handful of different powders the best I got was 29'ish. 120's were a tad over 2200 at 400 yards according to a...

    Idaho capped elk zone tags Dec. 1

    I was able to add it to my cart 3 times only to watch my time run out waiting on the check out and I was number 3090 something. Managed to get a DAV regular deer tag however on my 4th try. Good times Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

    Copper reloading manual.

    Barnes has some pretty good data published online. https://www.barnesbullets.com/load-data/ Hodgdon and some of the other powder manufacturers also publish some data, depending on the bullet weight online as well. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

    Recommendations for pheasant vest.

    I got a Q5 quilomene and have no complaints. Has 2 shell pockets that will hold a box of shells each, a hyd bladder pocket, a handful of other pockets to store other gear and straps to hold a jacket. I can carry plenty of water and snacks for my dog and myself for a day of chuckar/quail hunting...

    Tikka Sportsmatch Rings Ejection Problems

    I ran into the same problem with my T3 and an LRTS 3-12. Moving the scope back and forth, and removing the windage cap didn't help in my case. I had read about having a smith either lower the ejection port, adding a second ejector or tuning the extractor. In the end I went with an area 419 20...

    Stripped action screw head on Tikka

    The lapping compound just adds some grit between the screw and bit which can give it a little more grip. If the screw is epoxy'd in I would try and support the rifle someway so not to damage it and give the screw a few whacks with a hammer using the torx bit or a punch first. Sent from my...

    Night sight of choice

    I am partial to the ameriglo hackathorn's on my glocks. The rear sight is blacked out which I prefer but, it's not everyone's thing. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk
