Gear of the Year, What do you think ?

[missed]

The ARC Barloc totally forgot about that!

 

[Tactical Taz]

I'll go with

Sub 1K actions (Origin, Nucleus, Tenacity) (personally went nucleus)
ARC Barloc
All the prefit barrels that users can swap at home without sending off an action
RRS Dovetail
Magpul Chassis. There a lot of haters but adjusting the grip was yuuuge to getting it setup for me. Makes my Bravo feel awkward now
Ckye Pod (on the wish list still)
Revic Optics (on the wish list for Mil version to get my Dad into the sport easier with me)

Sold a coustom african gun. Cash stayed in my pocket for about 15 minutes (time to drive to MileHigh).

Voted with cash on the RRS anvil30 and associated hardware for spotter and 4 rifles ... what an amazing upgrade to the whole field shooting experience...

Vudoo

NLR 22

Software in apps, scopes, kestrels ... etc.

This is an expensive thread...

Certainly seems like it's getting that way.

Certainly seems like it's getting that way.

Are there cheap threads on the hide?

 

[hlee]

There’s that Savage thread in the bolt action rifles forum...

I’ll legit give you a $20 spot if you can work in the “Phoenix Eye” or “Velcro sneakers” into the article....kinda like “meow” in Super Troopers.....

I will drive down to Mile high and leave a $20 bill with the guys. I’ll even put my name on it LOL.

Not sure if it was this year or not but my vote goes to arca rails. Like the ones sawtooth rifles are making.
And also the budget custom actions.
Vudoo and amp annealer

 

[SonicBurlap]

PVA John Hancock, it's just so much rifle for under $2k.

Trigger Tech Diamond

RRS / Aera 419 / Sawtooth / Henderson and others making Arca Swiss happen

Saracen Field Bag (Tactical Udder) Warhorse Development - This thing is awesome for build stable positions.

Trigger Tech Diamond Trigger all day and night long!

 

[Kasey]

Thanks for the mention guys, I’m humbled to have the CAL considered.

 

[Devildog]

In no specificorder
1. Anvil 30
2. Vudoo Gunworks
3. Lieca’s new offering of crf’s & hd-b 3000 bino’s
4. Kahles new scopes
5. Area 419 new product lines, arca rails exc.
6. Terrapin X

 

[veezer]

From a budget perspective, I would say the best bang for the buck goes to:

RRS HC pro clamp. Now I can use my harris on pic mount or arca swiss
KRG bravo stock
Kestrel 5700 Ballistic (not elite). Save $200 and get all I need
Area 419 arcalok system
Bighorn origin
