I was considering a Tika T3. The plastic bolt shroud, tigger guard and area around the magazine are plastic. None of those things affect the functionality of the rifle. That was a turn off for me. I have read that the T3X now has a metal bolt shroud.

Congratulations on getting your dream rifle. If you want to use the MB so be it. You want to shoot it suppressed so be it. Your rifle shoot it like you want to shoot it.

I ended up with a Savage 110 Timberline. Aluminum block bedding in the stock Factory blue printed action. Medium contour barrel. Using an AB Raptor 10 Very easy shooting. One thing to keep in mind about threaded barrels. Light sporter contours can have issues with alignment when running a...

I looked at that but it has a 2019 join date. With only a few posts. But thought what the heck. Let’s see where this goes. Kinda like answering the phone knowing it is a telemarketer.

You have a post named Rigby. You are carrying on about the 7PRC. Maybe it is because I am still sipping my second cup of coffee, but I don’t get the point of the post?

Whew wee, time to dig a mud pit. Let these boys jump in an wrasle. Last one still in the pit at the end of 10 minutes wins. In the event of a tie, well they have to square off with the micro (can’t say midget anymore) wrestlers.

The perfect rifle caliber for plains game? 30-06 300 WM 375 Ruger 375 H&H There are a bunch of people who have a 30-06 and or 300 WM in their safe already. Smart thing is to take the rifle they already shoot. The emotional, yes emotional, is to buy another rifle in “perfect caliber” for...

On my Ruger African in 375 Ruger I put a 1” thick recoil pad to give me a little longer pull on the rifle. The rifle fitting better definitely helps. The Ruger No.1’s I have in 450-400 and 458 are very manageable with thin Ruger butt pad. I am guessing your rifle will be fitted to you so the...

Traveled in 21 or so counties. I have been mildly sick in Egypt. Pretty bad sick in Ireland. I have been pretty lucky to not get sick by not drinking any water that is not bottled that I opened. Not eating anything from local markets. A friend of mine was sick from eating a fried critter of...

As others have said, you’re in good hands with Mr. X and Aftons.

Previous owner on my Ruger Guide Gun had the barrel threaded. He unfortunately went with the Ruger thread pattern which is not the industry standard. I had it fixed. You will need a new banded front sight or a screw on front sight A friend of mine went with the front sight from NECG that is the...

I would say that about a 30% felt recoil reduction. Significant enough to notice. This could vary depending on host of variables, suppressor length, suppressor baffle design, weight, etc.

I have a Hybrid 46 that works well and a Raptor 10. The Raptor is a reflex suppressor. Both work very well.

The material the suppressor is made from makes a huge difference. The core design makes a huge difference in sound reduction. Some of the newer designs not only suppress but direct sound forward, they are not as quite to the ear. Back over the barrel or a reflex suppressor changes the balance of...
