    Nicely done. It’s a cliché because it’s true that you get what you pay for, but I think the thinking is so ingrained that it’s hard to have a discussion about value for money when it comes to...

    If you get any over barrel DPT it adds about 4”. Maybe a good middle ground for the Savage would be to chop 4” before re crown and thread. You keep a 20” barrel and with suppressor in place you...

    I put my .223 OB suppressor on my .22, when I went to get the bushing made up to fit the .22 barrel they said the CF suppressor on a RF rifle would be overkill. My answer: ‘Good, that means it will...
