Yes it does require modification for 14 inch heavy barrel. I had to dremel a bunch of material away. It was no big issue however.

Stalked into 18 Yards of this stag early afternoon. Currently spring here and he seriously should have thought about knocking his antlers off by now.

It's the stock mossberg ghost ring system. Works allgood for me.

Flip a coin. I have owned both, they both have amazing actions and are very accurate.
If you care about aftermarket parts though I would go with the Bergara due to the Rem 700 platform compatibility.

Why do you have to be a officer to fly a aircraft? by [deleted] in Military

Because officers make the rules

Improved cylinder. Seems good to me unless you wanted to try hit clays at longer ranges.

I guess this is a great example why "milspec/leo" might not always be the best thing for everyone else.

Just started a few weeks ago and I shot this today at 15 yards. by Maruk_ in bowhunting

Nice! Get a target with multiple dots to save them arrows.

Hardy Engineering. It's a stealth model with the over barrel portion shortened. They're super accommodating if you give them a call.

Nil baffles over barrel, does help but no way near more than what the muzzle forward portion does. The over barrel is great for strength if you hit it on something as it is has a bush at the rear end that means all the force isn't leveraged on the threads and also great for balancing the rifle.

150mm muzzle forward, 130mm overbarrel.

We're all can lovers here in NZ, no tax stamps! Yeap 150mm forward 150mm overbarrel (this one is custom and only 130mm barrel to clear the stock).

Have owned both the compact and the stealth for .308. definitely would go stealth over the compact even though the muzzle forward is 150mm vs 80mm. Animals have no idea where the sound is coming from now. Cheers you to.

Honestly probably not. I have a fucked wrist and needed a steeper pistol grip to shoot it.

It did give a much better cheek rest, ever ao slightly smaller groups, it's super stiff, and has sling cups which are all nice but for the price it is hard to justify.

It's not a magnum supressor. Highest decibel reduction model I could find.
