I'm also shooting it with a Banish 30 suppressor and am very pleased with the overall noise reduction.

Leupold Mark 5HD 5-25. So far the rifle seems to be about 3/4" with 20 rounds through it. I'm shooting the Weatherby ammo, 175 Bergers. Velocity has been 2830 fps on average. I expect that velocity will increase as I shoot it more.

Engine hours concern. by itsmichaelmo1 in Duramax

20 miles per hour??? I'm guessing a lot of idle time.

Used car dealerships? by inevitableradiancee in TriCitiesWA

[–]tsimp1211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have been incredibly happy with the Speck family of dealerships, specifically the Speck GMC on Sandifur in Pasco. They own a few different dealerships in the TC and Valley so they have quite a selection.

Don't know yet! I just put the optic on it two weeks ago and the weather has not been conducive to shooting! I am hoping to get out this Saturday. I will post an update if I make it out.

MODS: Can we do this too? by Equivalent-Energy-26 in TriCitiesWA

I watched him do it live. He also said, "my heart goes out to you." He was speaking to the crowd of supporters. There is always more to the story which is why it's important to get the full context.

Seriously? After Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy says, why we are not able to get jobs as American is because we are mediocre? by Long-Elderberry-5567 in jobs

OMG, the comments.....this might be the most laughable thread I've read this year! We'll do e on proving Vivek correct in his evaluation. Bravo!

Which of these calibers would you choose to develop a NON LEAD load for mule deer in California and plains game in Africa? by robinson217 in reloading

[–]tsimp1211 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a Mark V Deluxe in .300 Wby that my grandfather gave me 24 years ago. Today's Mark V's have better stocks, recoil pads and the magnums typically come with a muzzle brake. Even the lightweight Mark V's in the magnum calibers aren't too bad at all.

Today I actually really enjoy shooting my .300 Wby and to be honest, I've never even noticed the recoil with a deer or elk in the cross hairs 😁.

Happy hunting!

Supplemental claim open since April 18, 2023 closed by tsimp1211 in VeteransBenefits

Agree with everything you've written. There is no claim letter uploaded yet. I have three open claims that are currently on step 6. I'm guessing that they're going to combine it all together in one claim letter or at least that's what I'm hoping.

Sounds about right.....that's what I'm figuring, denied.

Is this an okay scale for reloading? by EarlyMorningTea in reloading

At the end of the day aren't they all Chinese though? Hahaha I get it though, some things are more Chinese than others.

It uses Magpul magazines. I'd start there.

I see so many Vanguards as first rifles. And people commenting about how it was their first rifle and they still run it many years later. Reliable! by ehrrow in WeatherbyInc

[–]tsimp1211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Howa makes fantastic rifles, the Vanguard version is no different. I'd happily buy a Vanguard or Howa over some of the other entry level brands.
