    New 109 ELDM vs 108 ELDM

    The real question is what do wound channels look like on 109eld compared to 108eld at 2500-2000fps. @PNWGATOR I recall you had poor experiences with 110 atips? Chalk it up to the a tip? Paging @Formidilosus, any experience with 109 eld on game?

    New 109 ELDM vs 108 ELDM

    My calculator comes up with 1 inch less drift and 2 inches less drop at 600yd, 5kDA, 6mph wind, assuming both are going 2900fps. Though after jumping through hoops trying to find qty 1000 108s recently, let alone the same lot, I may buy these next barrel just based on large package size and...

    Missouri River Breaks

    Drank filtered river water for a week on a float trip a few years ago. Didn't think twice about it, and didn't die. I would still keep a healthy supply of water in your pickup regardless. Not alot of creeks around if it's dry, and only a handful of access points directly to the river on the...

    I ordered 12/21, basically as soon as the first suggestion that ordering opened up posted on this thread. Order # 177748. Have not received yet, and not really in a rush. Curious where everyone else is in line. seams like there was a huge chunk of orders put in the first few days if I recall...

    Montana (and other state) hunter orange laws out dated?

    MT regs are 400 square inches above the waist. I happily wear an orange vest during rifle season, and would prefer others do as well. Main thought is shooting at an animal not knowing someone is in the generl direction behind it. Over the course of my life, while wearing an orange vest, I have...

    What are the odds this is a micro-chipped Antler?

    Pretty soon there will be remote controlled elk with thermal cameras, run right up to you 30 seconds before shooting light, built in printer, whip up a ticket right then and there...

    Any Ford mechanics?

    Nor sure on year.. mine is 2020. https://www.fordserviceinfo.com/Purchase/ViewProduct Would highly recommend buying a temp pass. $25 bucks to get actual oem tech manuals, can save hours. Easiest way to proof solenoid/valve is just pull the line going to hubs. Vaccum = open.

    Any Ford mechanics?

    The solenoid above the brake booster does not energize/valve open until you drive .5 miles upon key cycle (or 2 miles if it's below 30 deg) I chased my tail for awhile on this until I bought a Ford manual and read this. It's not in 4wd because transfer case is not locked in, just a warm up...

    HIIT Insert Installation

    Your local shop should have 100 of these in a bin somewhere, though I do love unnecessarily making shit. Make sure you have a flange to push the glue down

    Best instant coffee packets

    If your willing to drop some coin for good coffee, these are pretty legit. I have a good friend that works at ghost town that gave me a tin. Night and day better than the star bucks via I usually use. https://www.ghosttowncoffee.com/products/instant-coffee

    Redding type S, no expander ball, need mandrel or not?

    Coming full circle as well after about a year from my last reply above. For my 6cm I use die wax on body and standard hornady FL dies with spinal removed for headspace, got lucky I guess with my chamber and die, as kissing shell holder to die with a touch of cam bumps fired brass .002. Then moly...
