    Need help for my soon to be 9 year old 1st rifle

    I started both of my girls with a regular 10/22 with the stock cut down to a proper length of pull. Both are right hand but left eye dominant so I started them off as lefties. Never had an issue with the ejection of a right handed model. I moved my oldest(15) to a Tikka T1 when she got old...

    Non comp 22

    I've got 2 T1s. Mine is a 20" and my daughter's is the 16" model. My daughter runs a suppressor because to a 15 year old having a suppressor on her rifle makes her cooler than the boys that don't have one. Can't argue with her about that. With match ammo the velocity difference is only 8-12 fps...

    Which piece of equipment is more important?

    I’d buy a garmin first. I’ve got a garmin and an old kestrel 4000. Those two and the app on my phone gives me what I need to shoot. I’m only doing rimfire matches but if I needed weather info there are always a half a dozen kestrels being checked during the matches. To me it’s easier to ask...

    Daughters first deer rifle

    If she needs a break after about 10 shots, then she's not enjoying the 308. I lean to what's the smallest least recoiling round that will get the job done. Figure out what's the typical range most of her shots will be, 100-150y - a 223/556 will work with the proper bullet, 150-300y - 6.5...

    Large Gun Safe

    I just sold my Liberty 23 safe(rsc) and replaced it with a SecureIt Agile 52. It’s not as pretty as the Liberty but takes up less than half the space and I can pull every gun out without having to move another gun. It may only be a gun locker but for me it beats a traditional safe. Might be a...

    Suppressors Form 4 wait time

    So the ATF finally realized that they could approve my last two form4s, since one of the three was approved on Saturday. The two emails today were still 4 hours apart from each other. Inefficiency at it's best. Got everything printed and will pick them up after work tomorrow. 3 person trust...

    Suppressors Form 4 wait time

    Just got back from the Altus 22 match and checked my email, see the eforms in the subject line. Great finally got my cans approved. Open the pdf and they only approved my 22 can, guess they want me to wait a few more months for those two. All submitted at one time. I know the ATF is stupid as...

    Tikka 6.5 CTR any regrets not going 24”?

    What type of speeds are the 20” barrels giving? Been looking for a left hand ctr but can’t find any in 24”. Looks like it’s a 20” or I’ll go the origin or cdg route.

    Suppressors Form 4 wait time

    I paid $130 for my Silencer Shop trust with 3 people on it. Once the ATF gets around to approving trust cans we’ll have 6 total, been waiting since Dec 15 on 3. So we’re like FuhQ it’s paid for itself. Now I’ve just got to find what I want in stock for #7.

    barrel length/suppresion

    My daughter has a 16” T1 shooting SK Match with a OSS Rad22. It’s ridiculously quiet. We had to put the kestrel shot timer right next to it to pick up her shots. This was at Altus temps in the 70s. I’ve got a 20” T1 but waiting for the ATF to sign off on my KGM22 before I can test it out.

    6.5 Grendel Barrel Length for Hunting

    1) 16" or less, depending on the ranges your typical shot will be. My 16" group buy barrel (65forums) gets 2465 from factory Hornady 123s, that covers me past 300 yards. I'm in South Alabama and will build a 11-12.5" will be my next build. 2) 1:8 3) hard pass on the Carbon Fiber, not worth...

    Compass Lake Engineering closing doors to the public

    Was just shooting a 16” 556 Douglas from them yesterday. Love the barrel. Was thinking about ordering another to have a matching pair. Guess that’s what I get for thinking instead of ordering.
