    SnipTrix Stepping into the hide for the first time.

    Good luck with the permanent move. S AL is beautiful country. I’ve made several trips up there to call coyotes. Can never stay long enough. My outfitter and everyone I’ve met through him are first-class folks. Rancher-types. Ya’ know you have new leadership coming soon. I hope they make life...

    Suppressors Suppressor Recommendation for Hunting

    I have an Ultra 7 on my 243 and it’s great. I would recommend setting up a hunting rifle specifically for running the can. I originally had a hunter/match rifle with a 26”. It was no fun to hunt with because of the weight and length, especially with the can. I built a new 243 with a 20”...

    Gunsmithing What is the secret to making a 243 barrel last

    My first build for PRS was a 243. I ran a Broughton 5C, 26”, 1:8 in a Sendero contour. I had been reloading and running my factory varmint rifles until then - all 224 variants for groundhogs, coyotes. I was so impressed with the tiny groups coming from my first custom barrel, I didn’t bother...

    TriggerTech customer service issues ?

    FWIW, my one interface with TT customer service was flawless and more than exceeded my expectations. I pierced a primer and trashed a Diamond just like it’s explained on their website. They overnighted a new Diamond in time for me to install it and ck zero before an upcoming match. They paid...

    Kimber Super Americans ?

    Trauma1, When you look at the Kimber board on Rimfire Central you’ll likely decide not to shoot any matches that could induce “stress marks” on your Kimber. It looks to be an unusual Super America. It may be worth more than most in near mint condition. However, you may not care and simply...

    Gunsmithing Tipton Ultimate Gun Vise Problems

    Just get a barrel vise and be done with it. I have one of those Tiptons. They’re a one trick pony - holds your rifle nicely while cleaning the bore.

    Any Love for the Kimber 82 ?

    Congratulations on winning the match. ? The old Kimbers I own don’t take to matches. Just a few squirrel hunts from time to time. They also shoot lights out but I’ve not shot them past a hundred yards. The wood & Metal is so pristine I’d be a nervous wreck taking them to a match. I may do...
