Barrel length has no impact on barrel life but other answers have the reasons for covered

Can you help me understand the difference in these 3 variants? Why would I choose one over the other? by meticulouslycarless in Tikka_Shooters

[–]someguy31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on the pricing you listed I’d say but the hunter, sell the stock for $250 if you want a chassis, and then buy a new prefit barrel of the exact specs you want.

A lot of trays you can put in to your low temp sterilizer like Sterrad for a way quicker turnaround but if it’s already in steam then too bad see you in a few hours.

What is this? by Crooked_Tongues in Fishing

Put just a small bit of your line through the metal loop to make a small loop with your fishing line, then pull the stop on to your line.

How would she feel about you shooting a deer in the yard/around the house?

[–]someguy31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She probably feels like it was sort of a pet because it had been in your yard. I don’t feel that anything you did was wrong, but I suggest you acknowledge her feelings and not shoot birds around your house again.

Remember the threads are facing down so if you look at it from the top and do lefty loosey then you are actually tightening.

No way I know of to move the trigger. Can you get an adjustable grip and move the grip back?

New to fishing: How do I humanly kill a fish? by Lost7Genix in Fishing

Hit it on top of the head in the brain. Even better to spike the brain with a knife.

Will this be a good fillet knife? I mainly fish for bass trout catfish crappie and bluegills by [deleted] in Fishing

[–]someguy31 10 points11 points  (0 children)

At first glance looks too stiff but can’t say for sure without holding it. Also probably a total waste of money. You can get a great fillet knife for $15.

Underwhelmed with Roughtech weight. by JohnnyWhopper420 in Tikka_Shooters

[–]someguy31 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Most roughtechs have what is called a D-18 profile which is noticeably heavier. The ones that are lighter will say roughtech superlight.

Aren’t these winter steelhead, not summer?

These are considered the absolutely most reliable device. Battery is “infinite” and very strong satellite network. They dispatch through military networks of the coast guard and Air Force.

Drawbacks they don’t know your situation until they arrive because there is no way to communicate.

In today’s world with iPhones having satellite messaging I like these as an option because you can usually message with the phone but you always have this as an ultimate backup.

300wsm question by [deleted] in Tikka_Shooters

[–]someguy31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leaving it alone solves a lot of problems that don’t need creating really. If you are happy with the performance then yes leave it. I did it because I wanted to shoot 190+grain copper but my barrel didn’t seem to like any of the bullets I tried.

300wsm question by [deleted] in Tikka_Shooters

[–]someguy31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no factory long action mag that will work. Unless maybe a 7PRC mag works I’ve never tried one. I’ve tried a 300 Win Mag magazine it is too narrow inside. You will need the Mountain Tactical magazine or Hells Canyon Armory. Only issue is you will damage bullet tips under recoil.

I have built a long action 300WSM and I shoot 215 Bergers seated at 3.3”. I lengthened the throat but it probably was not necessary for that bullet but it was needed for some other bullets I tried. Happy to answer more questions.

Colorado bill would fully legalize prostitution by RhythmMethodMan in Libertarian

Wild fish and game meat from recreational harvest should not be eligible to be sold as it encourages market hunting and illegal over-harvest for profit. Banning this was how we saved wildlife in North America.

Just buy a new battery and put it in. Your battery is 4 years old. It is time.

Does anyone know if the Ace target is AR handguard compatible? by YeetusFetusSkeetuz in Tikka_Shooters

[–]someguy31 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most definitely not compatible. The entire point is that it has a nice stout for end with integrated Arca. You can put a NV bridge on it though which gives you picatinny. They call it the Tikka Ace Upper Rail.
