    A week ago I went for a day hunt to a little area I know where I have always seen a number of deer and over the few years I've hunted it I have shot a few lovely tasty fallows. Leaving the truck at...

    If you bring your rifle along, make sure you bring the suppressor you intend to fit on it as well, that way the thread can match exactly the suppressor thread and any issues can easily be sorted at...

    NakiNewbie liked post by jackson21 On thread : Confused! Shooting off bipod good, off bags bad.
