    Magnetite liked post by Eat Meater On thread : Sling vs Shooting Sticks Hunting

    Magnetite liked post by Hunter_Nick On thread : Is it worth putting a rail on a tikka t3x
    Get a set of Sportsmatch rings for the Tikka. About the strongest set of rings you can find, and are well priced. Think $80 vs $300+ for the optiloks. I have a set of the Sportsmatch on each of my...

    Magnetite liked post by Moa Hunter On thread : Downhill shot
    Calculators aside, how can that be, a bullet surely must have an advantage going downhill as opposed to up. A bullet not shot but dropped from the top of a cliff will accelerate to TV in free fall. A...

    Believe me, it doesn't matter what fancy bore cleaner you use, if it's just using patches, there's no guarantee the bore will end up fully clean even when the patch comes out spotless. This is...
