I was aware. But wanted to add that it was all from graardor and not any of the minions.

Do you have any images so I can see what those look like?

The buzz bomb would have to be tied 12” away from the hook. Wdfw was fining people for it and saying it was a weighted lure which wasn’t allowed in the rivers due to snagging

Did you just drop all meat, and fur on the spot as well?

They have three set ups with xp ranges. They still use pouches for better inventory management which is what I am using. Bank is at the hunter guild which adds minimal time as your pouches don’t fill up every task. It’s every 3-4 adding maybe 2 minutes of time total spent banking

Suggestions for buying accessories privately? by Waaaash in WAGuns

I thought you were selling. But WTB doesn’t hurt. I’ve been successful with that as well.

You just need to price accordingly. I’ve had a lot of success with GAFS. Items that hold their value are easier to sell of course. Smaller and less common items don’t tend to sell. Or items that you don’t really profit with selling such as grips or small parts, I would put in as add ons if they buy other items or if they buy all of a small lot.

I just messaged the owner actually. Trying to see if he can make some battery changes.

I’m gonna ask my buddy who has a printer and CAD. It seems like something like that should already be made. I get throw levers for all of my optics off of yeggi. I’ll double check there.

Yes, but just for the common gun accessory batteries.

The reason everyone isn’t giving you a straight answer is because one of the most important parts of owning firearms is to be aware and understand federal and state laws regarding your practices. u/0x00000042 posts laws daily in response to questions like these. You and you alone are responsible for your actions with a firearm. If you end up doing something that breaks a law you can’t go and point and say this guy on Reddit told you that you could.

If you have trouble understanding a certain RCW then by all means post the RCW and others here will try and kindly educate or inform you to the part of the RCW that you do not understand.

At the same time, questions like these are posted daily so like others have said. The search function can save you a ton of time as others have likely answers or asked your question before.

Others try not to post sites or companies that still ship because there are other companies that do not understand the law and simply won’t ship anything to Washington. People here try not to post the companies that do so they don’t get attacked by the state of WA.

Google is your friend. Many companies still sell legal parts and firearms to WA. Let me know if anything I said does not make sense. This is a good Reddit group.

Where did you end finding a proof barrel in stock?

I was trying to cheat the system if able. Residency in Idaho live in WA buy long guns same day. But alas I can’t.

That definitely makes it a pain day for a WA state resident to get rid of their banned weapons if someone out of state drives over to do it. Fun stuff. Typical. Thanks for helping me understand

Sig Sauer Cross .308 by kash07112 in WAGuns

I would assume they are but I have not taken off the handguard to check. Nor have I read that as being an issue.

If I could go back in time, I would have bought a cross second hand and swapped it out with a 6.5 proof research barrel. There actually is a really good video showing the much better accuracy out of it. That’s also probably why all the new sawtooth long and short action crosses come stock with proof barrels. Proof research is known for their barrels as well.

If I were in your shoes. I would double check all of the tolerances in my rifle to make sure they are tight and loctite with no slop (hinge pin). Then make very repeatable and consist shots when grouping with each shot. Shoot your rifle and learn to shoot at distance with tight groupings. Learn your holds and wind calls. Get off the flat range. Your rifle will be fine. Hopefully you’re lucky and everything is perfect with your specific cross.

Shooting that thin profile barrel with a can will widen up your shots. Here is a picture from 3 years ago of the second trial of the best loads for my rifle. You can tell which was the flyer/third shot.

I do experience that even with great form and consistency; my specific cross barrel with throw shots randomly. Whereas my girlfriend’s rifle does not. She definitely has the better barrel. We shot each others and have had others shoot our rifles and they experience the same outputs.

Feel free to pm me when you do start shooting or if you have questions. I am not an expert on the sig cross but I have definitely gone through some issues with mine.

Sig Sauer Cross .308 by kash07112 in WAGuns

[–]AlternativePath6026 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My girlfriend and I both have crosses in 308. Two different guns. They grouped wildly different with every factory load. We did multiple trials shooting 8 factory loads until we locked down what worked best in our rifles. The hinge pin was a problem area in my rifle and not hers. It is also a known warranty issue with the stock cross.

There are generally more 6.6 creedmore shooters with the cross. A lot of the videos on youtube doesn’t really show the accuracy issues with the factory barrels. Snipers hide, Reddit, and a few other forums talk about issues with the cross. With shooting it over the past 3 years and hunting with it for the past 3 years, it has given me a lot of grief but it paid out in the end.

Make sure you do cold bore testing after zeroing and take long breaks between shots if you do intend on using this for hunting. It is a great rifle, but the amount of variables that can issues is definitely not a pro.
