    Suppressors Subsonic for deer

    That's good to hear. I'm heading out tomorrow with a buddy that's shooting that same load so hopefully I can report back with similar results.

    Rifle Scopes Athlon Cronus BTR. Have they lived up to the expectations?

    The Cronus is on my short list for a new scope this spring, glad to hear so many good things. Not a deal breaker but I hope they add the locking windage turret in 2019. Guess we will see what happens at SHOT this year.

    Rifle Scopes Another mil vs moa thread

    Not quite correct, 1 MOA equals 1.047". 1" at 100yds is often referred to as "shooter moa" and is often found in cheaper scopes. The Ares will be true MOA. David beat me too it. It can get confusing when a scope is adjusting in true MOA but the mfg puts .25" @ 100 on the turret. Fortunately...

    Rifle Scopes Burris XTR3!!!

    After hunting season I'm going to pick up a new optic in the sub $1600 range. At the moment I'm leaning towards the Cronus but the new XTRIII sounds very interesting. Excited to learn more, thanks for the updates!

    Rifle Scopes $1000 Scope

    FFP vs SFP has less to do with distance and more to do with intended use and shooting style. Do you typically shoot on max power at these distances or do you prefer to dial it down a bit? Do you dial for wind or just hold off? If you prefer to shoot at 25x all the time and dial for wind then...

    Chassis/Stock preference

    Price for me too. I really like the look of the JAE-700 but given all the excellent choices we have today $1900 is hard to justify.

    Rifle Scopes Optic for heavy woods/open fields

    I agree, 1-6 or 1-8 would be perfect for this application. I don’t know your budget, but I have been very impressed with the Burris RT-6. IMO it is one of the best in its price range.

    Rifle Scopes Hunting scope under 700

    Used Nightforce SHV 3-10 would be another good one depending on how much magnification you desire. Should be able to get one under $700 and would meet all of your criteria.

    Black Friday deals on premium components?

    I was just about to post this. Brownells has had some great deals lately. It's not uncommon to see 20% off select Geissele products. They seem to rotate through most of their rails and triggers every few months.

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce SHV reticles

    Resale value will be greater with the MOAR reticle. That would be reason enough reason for me. I’ve been really impressed with the SHV line. I don’t think you will be disappointed.

    Gunsmithing Rebarreling a rem 700 sa

    +1 We live in an age where there are numerous talented gunsmiths, but I must say my LRI barreled action is nothing short of perfection. If you are looking for a re-barrel than I would strongly suggest you check out the LRI sniper's hide group buy.
