    Tuner brake for 7mag

    I have a EC Tuner brake I’ve shot on my 7mm. It did reduce recoil and did tighten my groups, even though most of my barrels were heavier style or CF bull barrels. I also hand load and it still improved my groups. I happen to be selling it as I’ve switched to cans on all my rifles. PM me if...

    AW2 reamer for rent- Boise, Idaho

    I bought a Alex Wheeler reamer from JGS precision to fix the chamber issue on my 6.5 PRC. It worked excellent and I’m offering it for anyone to rent for $25 in the Treasure Valley area of Boise, Idaho. Face to face exchange. I’m sorry but I don’t feel comfortable mailing it away just yet...

    Accubond LR bullets

    No pass through, gutless method used. It was dark with weather coming in so didn’t look for bullet. We did not come across any bullet fragments. We kept the shoulder where the impact and lost some meat but not completely bloodshot.

    Accubond LR bullets

    This was a 168 ABLR 7mm at 110yds. First pic is the entry side, no exit. Did not recover the bullet. 2797fps at 100yds. Second pic is impact area, not the best pic but it wasn’t completely blown apart.

    Need advice - Backpack upgrade

    I have not had the opportunity to try EXO but I have heard good things about it. I couldn’t find anyone with one to try and they wouldn’t send a demo to me. I think the main difference is the frame, the IA is carbon fiber and super bomber.

    Need advice - Backpack upgrade

    Unfortunately they are expensive but are made completely in the USA. That was part of my choice, made in USA. However, to select a pack, I gathered as many packs as I could (friends packs, my own, demo packs) and did 2hr treadmill walks with 50lbs and 100lbs (1hr. Each). I hunted in the field...

    Need advice - Backpack upgrade

    I’ve used Kuiu, mystery ranch, badlands, kifaru and Initial Ascent. My favorite is the Initial Ascent after using it the last four years. Had 100+ pound loads multiple times. Carries weight very well,

    Cow elk for my 12 year old son

    That's a great story! Your son will forever remember your humility and you taking responsibility. He also won't let you forget it! HAHA What a great harvest, that's great teamwork right there! Tell your boy it's what old guys do, I've one the exact same thing but I missed 6x because I kept...

    EC Tuner Brake

    I shoot both the MBM and EC Tuner. Recoil reduction for 7mm Mag from the EC is excellent! Plus you get the tuneability the others don't have. Yes the tuning works, it is real. The MBM is on a 6.5 creed for my wife and is fantastic. Nathan makes a very fine brake. If you don't want a tuner in...
