WTB ISO Ingenuity Precision Trickler

You and everyone else man, hoping my name comes up on the wait list soon.
Yeah, I got on the preorder for the complete system on 12/24/2023….

I picked up an AT V3 a few weeks back hoping to use it while I wait in case it gets pushed out again. I am having some issues with the AT trickler itself so was just throwing out a ISO listing in case someone has one they are using.

So. Many. New. Calibers.

The funny thing about most of these new cartridges is they replicate something from 30-50 years ago.

Yeah, they might have a different twist rate. They might use pointier bullets, but they are mostly ballistic duplicates of something else from a different era.

Someone once said: the more things change, the more they stay the same.
I do find it funny that some of the "new stuff" is considered earth shattering but look at the .280 British and the German 8mm Kurz as a couple examples.

So. Many. New. Calibers.

I think it's a good thing, sure drives innovation. I just had a 6BR barrel done, the magazines hurt and I had to gather reloading supplies. In a sense, maybe the 6GT may have been better, who knows. One day I would like to look into a 6ARC bolt, especially when I really trim down.
In the end, boils down to want, need and what may be the best "tool" kind of like I could frame a house with a 4 oz. ball peen hammer, but-there's better choices for that job, etc.

Precision Rifle Gear Let’s Talk Bipods

I've owned multiples of all of them. Competed with all of them and have hunted with some of em.

Ckyepod for everything but lw hunting rifle.Tbac is a very solid bipod but you have no ability to change width which is a big con and it's slower to deploy. You also can't just pull out what you need since it's spring loaded you go all or nothing.

Nothing really offers what the cykepod does. It's expensive but worth it. You can do things with it you can't do with any other bipod

The accurac are super solid but again, lack of flexibility limits them. If all you do is shoot off a square range then the accurac, atlas , tbac or Harris is fine.

Harris is fine for LW hunting guns where you need to save weight but it's severely limited in what you can do. I know a few high level competitors run them but they also carry a ckyepod or borrow them when needed.

Until something comes out with the same features or more than a ckyepod, it will reign supreme.
Yeah, I love the cykepod it clicks almost all the boxes. I have an Accutrac on my TacOps just because I wanted a wider super stable rest. Down side is it is a royal pain to move the legs to deploy.
