    Who makes PVA prefit barrels?

    PVA “Osprey” prefit that @slowelk had made. I think it’s a 22” #2 contour and had a built in flare at the muzzle (nice touch). Literally all I did was thread it on, torque, check w go/no go and load w 180gr ELDMs. Box ammo was a little slow at 2850fps. Hand loads are at 2950 w out any pressure...

    Feedback on Preferred Barrel Hybrid Lite for Tikka T3x Lite

    So if I have a Tikka Lite barrel threaded to 5/8-24 I should find a collar to seat against. Currently just screwing suppressor on until it snugs up, but seems less than ideal. Is this just a clamp on collar, or is there a threaded collar that I can find somewhere that would line up appropriately?

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

    Currently using automotive header wrap (works great) with a hose clamp on either end. Guessing the silicon wrap might move a little less ( be a little sticky?) and or be lighter.

    A podcast for all of us

    Gohunt at the end says if code "CRWM" is used for a membership $100 will go to CRWM, no only that but the go hunt guys will personally match the funds with their own $. Sounds to me like they are putting their $ where their mouth is.

    Good Luck Oregon

    The article brings up wildlife being held in Trust. Newberg did a great podcast on wildlife being a "public trust" resource, I encourage a listen. Newberg explains that as part of his day job he is charged with managing "Trusts". The gist of his argument is that while wildlife is held in trust...

    Second guessing shooting a 6.5cm tikka

    I'm around 2600 fps w a 18" barrel, 140 eldms hit 1800fps right around 600 yards at my elevation (6800ft). H4350 and CCI LRP. Before I chopped the factory Tikka barrel I was hitting 1800 fps at 750 yards.

    Suppressor covers - who's and why

    Semi serious question, can I just duct tape a piece of welding blanket/felt on and call it a day? Could get fancy and sew some Cordura on the outside. Mirage has been driving me nuts after 2-3 shots, but $80 for a can condom?

    Shoot2hunt Absaroka Bear Hunt

    What is the expected difference between the S2H (U) and the three day shooting class? How many rounds would a guy need to bring? Will you be shamed for not shooting a black bear with the .223 after class? The outfitter recommends a "big bore" rifle, maybe they mean a mighty 6.5mm?
