    Razor LHT vs. Mark5HD for hunting

    I have a Razor LHT on my hunting rifle, for the money I really like it. I havent looked through the Mark5. I'd just pick the reticle you like more and go with that one.

    Fighting the AI

    I bought an AI last year and am very happy with it no regrets. I'm not a comp shooter, I have shot several AIs and always wanted one. If I had a bunch of Remington or Savage rifles taking up space I wouldn't extract some coin from them and move towards an AI. I don't think I would sell higher...

    Quality Junk Rifle... Kinda

    Point being PSA is decent for the money with room for improvement if wanted. The 308 barrel before I replaced it was about 2-2.5 moa with fmj ammo and around moa with better ammo.

    Quality Junk Rifle... Kinda

    I bought a PSA 308, swapped the barrel to a Wilson combat 338 federal and put a larue MBT2 in it. It's honestly a pretty decent rifle for what I have into it. Of course PSA has sales all the time, MBT2s are like $90 and if you want to upgrade the barrel Wilson Combat clearance sales are pretty...

    Safe clean outs - what when why?

    It seems like when I decide to sell one thing it'll snowball and I start cleaning out a lot of stuff. I have been considering moving a couple handguns and rifles that have become fairly valuable, the problem is when do I want to cash in the investment. I don't need the money currently so I'd...

    Hunting rifle

    I live in elk country, I have killed them with cartridges as small/weak as 6.8spc and as large/powerful as 338 Lapua. Lately I have been using a 6.5 Sherman Short mag shooting a 122gr PVA for all of my western big game. Putting a quality bullet where it matters is more important than caliber...

    Recommendations for a youth rifle

    My 8 year old took his first white tail this year on my uncle's place in Michigan. He was shooting a 16" 300blk. Given the nature of our trip we didn't have it suppressed like we do here in Wyoming. The first thing he said was wow that was loud....I completely forgot hearing protection for...

    223 vs 223AI for trainer and predators

    223AI is a great little round. I'd go that direction for sure. Do your practice with factory match ammo and have fire formed brass you can load for hunting. I had a 25" 223AI that would push a 69gr at almost 3400fps with cfe223.

    6.5 and 308 bullet selection

    Im a big fan of monolithic solids for hunting. I have used a lot of Barnes TTSX and TSX for killing animals. It would be beneficial to drop down in weight and getting the velocity up, maybe 120s for the 6.5 and 130s for the 308 if you are looking at Barnes. I have been using the 122gr Cayuga...

    SOLD Proof SS 6.5CM Accuracy International Barrel 27mm

    This came with a rifle I bought from Mile High, as far as I can tell it has zero rounds through it. There is no evidence of carbon, copper, or wear, minor superficial scratches on the exterior, breech threads are perfect. I sent the bore scope through it and it looks new. Has an Area 419...
