    Chrono for Factory Load Verification

    Hey all, Limited budget ($200 or less). Need something to capture data and compare against what's on the back of the box. No plans to start reloading in the future. Just need to get data for ballistics chart and Leupold custom dials. Also will use for arrows. Looks like Caldwell or...

    WTB: Tikka T3X 30-06 Magazine

    Looking for a T3X magazine for the 30-06 cartridge. Will entertain either the 3 or 5 rounder. (I believe the .25-06 Rem, 6.5x55 Swed Mauser, 270 Win, 30-06 Sprg , 7mm Rem Mag, 300 Win Mag, 338 Win Mag magazines are the same) Don't really care the condition so long as it functions properly...

    Complete Leupold Loadout or save up for Swarovski?

    Hey all, wanted to know what yall think about working to complete a set of leupold optics (in the bx4/ bx5 line) or saving up for a single set of swaro ELs or SLCs. Currently use the bx4 10x42s and rx1600 for my whitetail and hog hunting in the southeast, but i plan to venture out west more and...

    How far would you shoot with 10x mag?

    Been seeing a lot of folks say "i could shoot far with only 9x or 10x" or "a 3-9x or 3-10x is all you really need". I want to know how far you would be confident in shooting game with a scope w/ a top end of 10x. "Far" for me is 250yds + I've read a lot of reviews, but want to know from...

    8x42 vs 10x42 steadiness

    Hey, want to drill into the age old 8x vs 10x topic, but specifically to hand holding the binos. I got my first big-boy binos, Bx4 Hd 10x42s, after using some old Leupold 10x50s forever. I thought 10x would be just a standard all-purpose magnification. Maybe it’s the higher resolution than I’m...

    Swarovksi Z3 and BRH Reticle

    I know Leupold is considered the "gold" standard here. But does anyone have experience with the Swaro Z3 and the BRH? The 3-10x42 with BRH looks to be a great topper for my whitetail rifle. And the Swaro Ballistics calculator seems to give decently usable sub tension holds with the 30-06...

    Leupold Vx-5HD 3-15x44 on a Tikka T3x.

    Just picked up a T3x Lite Stainless in 30-06 today. I have a Vx-3i 3.5-10x40 fresh in from @schmalts waiting to be popped on. Though i have the itch to grab a vx5-hd 3-15x44 for this rifle and figure out something else for the vx3i. Anyone have experience mounting the 44mm vx5 on the tikka...

    Tikka Safety- Real world experience

    Hey all, want so badly to commit to picking up the next available T3X at my local shop, but that safety makes me scratch my head. As a primary tree stand hunter, the fact that you have to turn the safety off to work the bolt (either chambering a live round as i start the hunt, or emptying a...
