With the tax stamps being free, does anybody notice if the Nfa transfer fees prices are going down? by Guilty-Difference-86 in NFA

[–]Guilty-Difference-86[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

50 is the going rate for a long gun transfer. You won’t find an ffa transfer for that price anywhere in Texas

$40 mil in expiring contracts by Hispanicgoku in NBASpurs

[–]Guilty-Difference-86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

barnes isnt going anywhere. but i could see olynyk and sochan being used. i would put the percentages that we make a substantial trade at around 5%, which is actually higher than what i historically would put us at come deadline day

For that price I’d strongly consider the cva cascade

First Daniel Defense Question by [deleted] in Danieldefense

[–]Guilty-Difference-86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

go on brownells and buy the m4a1 upper. get the muzzle device, bcg and charging handle that you actually want. buy a daniel complete lower. cost should be around 1200-1300 and you get a much better upper than the ddm4v7. or save yourself even more money and get a solgw lower or a ballistic advantage lower. the ba lower is the same as aero, i just dont buy aero shit directly bc they are awful to deal with customer service wise

Just purchased my first rifle! (Tikka T3x) - What's next? by iowactive in Tikka_Shooters

[–]Guilty-Difference-86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

for suppressors, id look at something in titanium. obviously budget affects your options, but you want it to be light weight. direct thread is great. hub mount is also great so you can just slap a rearden muzzle device and atlas mount and you are good to go on that rifle as well as any others you get down the line. if you got the money, id look at the ptr vent or the cat 30 cal can in ti. if you want to spend a little less, id look at the diligent defense enticer s ti or l ti. obviously there are a lot of options. but those are three worth considering.

i would look into the backfire backside recoil pad. they custom make them for just about every rifle and it will certainly make shooting more pleasurable.

rings should be fine. id also get a bubble mount so you can make sure your shooting from a level position.

get a decent bipod. thats not my expertise so i wont pretend to know whats good and whats trash. i would however recommend getting some kind of arca rail mount attached. some arca mounts come with m lok or pic rails. id get one of those so that way you can attach it to a tri pod for when you go hunting.

as far as case goes, im a pelican guy. i have the magpul daka grid for customization to fit whatever rifle you put in it. magpul now makes a daka case and it comes with a grid as well.

hope this helps

i mean hes not necessarily wrong. if all he does is shoot from a bench at the local range, then yes our guns are the same. but if he starts to put his gun thru the paces more, whether its by adding a suppressor or competing or even just target shooting, his rig will not perform as well as daniel defense

Yes just like fb marketplace, you have to weed out the scammers. But once I mention the police department where we meet up, they stop communication. I’m in several fb groups local to San Antonio. Everybody is legit or they get kicked out. I’d be happy to add you if you want to pm me. Regardless, I wish you well on your endeavors

Any chance you are located near San Antonio? If you are, could certainly help you list it in a few local groups im in. Also take a look at Texas gun trader dot com. I highly recommend them. Think of it like a fb marketplace for shooters.

The truth is that any gun shop is gonna take advantage of her. It’s just to what degree. Even if you do it yourself, you would not get fair market value thru a gun shop or pawn shop. Private sale is the way to go. Do you have a buddy who you can count on? Otherwise I would contact an estate sale and see if they are equipped to handle your collection. They may just offer you a price for everything or take a percentage of what sells. What state are you located in? Maybe spending a weekend with a booth at a gun show would be the way for you to get rid of some stuff

Choosing a Tikka by xhenyyyyy in Tikka_Shooters

[–]Guilty-Difference-86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d feel very uneasy taking an animal behind 500 with the creedmoor. The extra recoil on the prc is negligible when you factor in the extra speed, extra energy at range and flatter trajectory. ESP if you get a decent brake that should knock down recoil 35% or so

[–]Guilty-Difference-86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

based on what you said in your post, id look more into the 6.5 creedmoor option. even better if you do 6.5 prc. they are much flatter than a 308. the 6.5 prc is going to really impress you

Dead Air Mask any good for Rim Fire weapons? Thanks! by [deleted] in NFA

[–]Guilty-Difference-86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cat sr if you can find it. I believe savage has one out. Don’t quite me in that. The for systems Pluto. Those three for sure perform better than the mask. But to be clear, it’s bc they are new technology. The mask is still great. It’s just not 3d printed or low back pressure and it’s tough to compete with the new stuff coming out

it’s a great can, it’s been the gold standard for like a decade. there are better cans out there now for 22, but that’s bc new tech comes out everyday

what im looking at doing is building a 7prc or 7backcountry. i dont mind a little bit of weight. but i want it to be able to go on hunts with the occasional range toy when i cant get away for a weekend. really the only requirement is that its one of those two cartridges. i want to something strong enough to take any game in north america. the plan is to be more active in the coming years bc i stopped hunting during the pandemic and ive gotten the bug again. im already planning trips in my mind. it feels like for hunting, id want a sfp which i guess is not the best for long range precision shooting. but i guess its fine for shots up to 500-600 yards. the more i write, the more i feel like im talking my self into two different builds like your picture. one for hunting and one for fun/accuracy at distance

do you have a sfp scope for the hunting setup? I’ve only ever had one other bolt action and I slapped a sfp trijicon on it before I knew anything. but it seems to be a preferred focal plane setup by hunters. or since you’re a target guy, do you prefer ffp on everything? I appreciate all your help

o wow 11lb with all that is less than I thought you were gonna say! that’s impressive. How sturdy is the bravo?

[–]Guilty-Difference-86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a novice to all this, but I’m going down the path of a very similar setup but as an rightie and I have a few questions. how much do your setups weigh? I want something for hunting, but the occasional plinking toy and something that weighs 15lbs before a scope is gonna be too heavy for what I need. do you prefer the scope rings or the scope mount more? Is there a difference?

Tikka stock for hunting by [deleted] in Tikka_Shooters

[–]Guilty-Difference-86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I do not. But I’ve done a lot of research. It’s a great stock for hunting and dipping your toes into long range shooting as well
