    Bipod Questions

    Help me make an informed decision if you would. Looking for a good quality bipod for my Christensen MPR chambered in 300PRC. Maybe I'm a dork but I'd like something carbon fiber like the gun. I hear a lot about Harris and Spartan, the Spartan products seem cool but I'd rather have something that...

    Beginner Caliber and Rifle

    I'm in a similar boat and hoping for some input as well. I'd like to find a rifle both my son (almost 9) and wife could use for deer hunting, maybe even elk eventually. My first struggle has been chambering, I know very little about smaller hunting rounds hut it seems like 7mm-08 and 6.5cm are...

    Optic options for long range shooting

    Getting started in the long range shooting/hunting world and looking for input on optics to help me dial in my rifle. I would like to have a quality optic so my spotter can help me dial in my zero and help judge dial adjustments for long shots. Not looking to spend a small fortune but willing to...

    300 PRC- 212 vs 225 gr

    Seems most of the available ammo out there is the Hornady Precision Hunter 212gr, just curious why the Match 225gr rounds seem to be less desirable.

    Recommendations for scope on new rifle

    No, I have not but... for a rifle intended for both hunting and long distance target shooting FFP seems to make the most sense. It'll probably see more time shooting steel than hunting until I move to country that's better suited to rifle hunting, around here archery seems to be king because...

    Motorcycle Recomendations

    I know all about it! I have a bunch of bikes including a KX500, CR500 on down the line. the KX is definitely the toughest to kick for sure, even a fresh CR500 is easy to kick through compared to a KX (or at least the one I own).

    Thoughts on the Maven RS4 vs NF NX8, or Mark 5?

    If you decide to sell that NX 8 I may be interested.

    Motorcycle Recomendations

    Personally I would go with the CRF230- a little lighter/better power than the TTR230. The only drawback is it's e-start only, but they are easy to bump start on a slight hill if the battery gives up on life. The CRF/TTR would suit you well as you get to exploring single track more, but at your...

    Thank you, much appreciate your input. The idea of higher magnification sounds appealing (more is better right? Isn't that what she said?) but what you say makes a lot of sense.

    Recommendations for scope on new rifle

    I have, but the Leupolds seem to be in a higher price bracket then comparable options from other brands.

    Recommendations for scope on new rifle

    Does anyone have any real world experience with the Athlon scopes? They seem to have some decent offerings but the info on them as far as reviews and such is a little harder to come by. Any good places other than the classifieds section here to watch for deals on used scopes? Also curious on...

    Recommendations for scope on new rifle

    To answer the questions- I've never done any true long range shooting or hunting but wanting to learn. I would say the goal at the moment is to be able to be on target shooting steel at 1,000 yards. Weight- not overly concerned about weight really, don't want to strap a brick on top of the gun...

    Do you manage your own investments?

    I've been using Edward Jones and have been quite satisfied with the results, but I'm not smart in this field and have put my trust in someone who is (or is supposed to be). If anyone has some advice that may be beneficial to me and help me grow my profile, please reach out.

    OSHA has officially released their ETS for Covid

    Best Base Layer

    I don't think LL Bean is ultra-liberal, not sure about Lands End but I don't support REI as they tend to align with anti-access groups such as the Sierra Club et al and don't generally support true public lands access for all (I'm not a big proponent of wilderness or limited access to public...

    Recommendations for scope on new rifle

    Recently picked up a Christensen Arms MPR in 300PRC that needs some glass on top. My first inclination is the Nightforce NX8 4-32x50, also heavily considering the Vortex Viper PST Gen 2 in 5-25x50. Wanting a good FFP scope with illuminated reticle and a nice zero stop and really don't want...

    Basic peep install question

    I agree with the advice to remove it and re-insert it where you need it, otherwise you are messing a lot with twists in the string and likely to end up fighting yourself getting it aligned correctly.
