I agree with the negative aspects of suppressors,but the recoil and sound reduction are well worth it. I have hunted the last two years with a suppressor and I don’t think I will hunt with out one. Many rifles now come with threaded barrels. I will not buy a rifle that is not threaded. When I practice I still use hearing protection,but not when I hunt. Just trying to save what hearing I have left.

I have used the Hammer bullets,out of a 6.5 rpm on antelope,mule deer and cow elk. The performance has been outstanding.

I plan on doing some shooting early in the morning,fine tuning things for a couple of upcoming hunts.

I have shot the 177 hammer in a 7 PRC. Box velocity is 2925,out of a 22 inch barrel it ran 2890. Very accurate,excellent ammunition.

I have had the Garmin for 4 to 5 months now and have nothing but good to say about it. It is easy to set up,isn’t finicky about it being aimed just right,never times out,and hasn’t missed a shot. I have had the optic chronograph,magnetospeed,originally labradar,nothing compares to the Garmin unit.

I have used them in the 6.5 rpm. They are very accurate and performance on game has been outstanding.

I don’t think the new hexpad distorts like the original one did.

Very nice bear. Thanks for sharing
