    Forster coax press overall length limit

    Brand new to reloading, I have a 1:8 twist browning x bolt max 300 win mag and want to try the 212 lrx bore rider which Barnes load data has at 3.975 COAL. I know I will have to single feed these because magazine length. Ultimate reloader on YouTube said the max for the coax press was 3.97. I’m...

    What Ti pro muzzle brake for Kimber hunter 6.5 Creedmoor

    Shot my Kimber hunter pro 6.5 creed for the first time today. Tried without a muzzle break and then with the radial brake that came with it. Couldn’t really notice a difference in recoil. I know the ti pro brakes are some of the best at reducing recoil and would like to try one out. Probably a 3...

    Best cartridge for mono bullets on elk under 600 yards?

    If you were going to shoot mono bullets on elk what cartridge would you pick? I’ve been looking at Barnes lrx in 6.5 prc or .270win. Another optioning I’ve been considering is getting a 6 creed for deer and down and a 7 or 300 win mag or another big caliber for the elk. I’ve killed two elk and a...

    Wall tent. 12x15 vs 14x15 Fly or not?

    I’m usually solo or with one other person, rarely 3 people total and very very rarely maybe 4. Looking hard at the Davis antelope package 12x15. Or would you spend the extra $200 or so to get a 14x15. Would I be better saving that $200 to put toward a cook shack down the road or get the vinyl...

    New Swarovski from Cabelas. They sent a display box.

    Finally ponied up for some 10x42 Els from cabelas. First question I ordered new and they sent me a display model, does anyone think this is weird and should I ask them for a discount or some credit back or something? The binos appear to be fine but I don’t consider a display model brand new...

    Mark V Backcountry 2.0 Ti

    Want to get a lightweight rifle and looking at the Mark V backcountry 2.0 Ti. Anybody else on here got one? .308 Win or 6.5 Creedmoor? I have a 30-06 and 300 win mag I could use for elk. This will be for mainly for deer and potentially elk although I hear 6.5 is a little light for elk. 500 yards...

    What tripod are you guys using with your btx?

    I’ve read a bunch of older post and I think I’d like to try the sirui va-5 head. What legs are you guys running with it? Would the T-024SK be steady enough with the 95? Starting out with just he Btx and 65 but eventually I’ll add the 95mm. Any other suggestions for head and legs? Currently I’ve...

    What to do after glassing up elk? Stalking techniques?

    Gonna try incorporating glassing a lot more for my LE rifle Utah Wasatch elk hunt trying to locate a good bull. I’ve hunted spike elk my whole life but usually I’ve got a spot in mind that I hike to before light and just sit and wait. Every year I always see at least two big bulls and a bunch of...

    Swarovski BTX vs Kowa 883 + 15s or 18s?

    I’m getting ready to buy a BTX and the 65mm. Eventually I would like to possibly add the atx and a 95. I know I’d give up light in the 65mm but I like the weight savings. I’m also second guessing and thinking maybe I should just buy the Kowa 883 and maybe some uhd 18s or a nice pair of 15s down...
