    Had a look through one at the Sika show. Was looking at getting one because they are very light and compact for a ffp and has illumination. However, as mentioned their very short mounting length and...

    Used the ttsx in 308 a lot. As others have already said they work best going really fast. For the animals you are talking about at bush ranges I would drop down to the 110 grainer. It can be driven...

    I have gotten excellent velocities and accuracy with 75grain eldm and 2206h in three different 1-8 twist t3's (one 18.5, one 20 inch barrel and one 22 inch). They were all very accurate out to 400 in...

    With regards to muzzle flip I have found that running a heavier suppressor than is currently fashionable really helps. Either full stainless or a dpt with a few stainless baffles to bring the weight...
