This is the winner for me as well.
And if it does what you need of it, might be a hard sell to not just replace it with another takeoff for much cheaper and not need more dies and components or an expensive barrel on the next one either.
Used a 22” carbon barreled 7 saum for one season with an ultra 7. Too long. Didn’t use the suppressor much at all after that until I had shorter barrels.
Probably fine for open county situations but I did primarily late season tracking/still hunting elk and Midwest treestand hunting and I...
I’ve been very disappointed in doing the same. The unicorn I’ve always wanted was a financial advisor that is as well versed on taxes and how I should best navigate them as the avg financial advisor is at funneling my money to them. Probably just need to focus more on finding the right cpa.
I did the same for the first 3 tikkas that got new barrels but finally got the stuff to do it myself on the last one. If having a smith chamber a barrel, it frequently costs nothing extra to let them do it for you.
I think the nomad xc is a good choice, just got one myself. Have a scythe and ultra 7 as well. Don’t think any of them are a bad choice.
Scythe seem most likely to fail on a short barreled magnum but are lightest and shortest and suppress adequately. It’s what will prob stay on my hunting rifle...
Yeah. Probably didn't need the personal shots but it's pretty applicable being that the recent youtube video he's been making threads on is of him walking across an open ag field to to shoot 6 year old rutting muley. But rifle rut hunting muleys isn't an issue and you shouldn't take that away...
LOL. Ironic coming from someone that tries to pimp their YouTube hunts across the forums. If you said your tag fees for 4 hunters are significantly subsidized by NR for all those applications I’d agree.
I don’t know.. there’s probably some value if they actually validate all the components work properly. They usually do with quality stuff regardless but I could see some bugs worked out if they actually shoot ‘em enough at distance before sending them out.
Are they are shooting each given rifle and trueing BC of known bullets? I would be very surprised if so. Rangefinder will spit out a solution for the real time density altitude, why would you need gunwerks to provide one for guessed atmospherics?
Are they really shooting 100+ rounds through...
No, sizing contributes to it. Bushing dies seem to contribute to them forming more quickly than standard FL sizing dies because they dont size all the way to the shoulder.
My understanding is that process of button rifling induces stresses in the steel. If you contour/flute/thread or just machine the outside of the barrel prior to relieving the stresses induced during the rifling process you risk having changes to the bore dimensions. Thus, makers of quality...
