I like the MKC’s I have, but their branding, marketing, and overall corporate vibes are too polished too make me a flag waving fan. They’re alright but they aren’t small mom & pop company - they either have some PE injection or looking for it.

Tomorrow, my favorite culinary blade maker is having a huge drop. Iron Grove Tool Co:

SIG Sauer Zulu6 HDX Pro Binocular 16x50mm



I have a pair of black 16x Zulu6 exclusives from Bass Pro - I absolutely love them. It's the one piece of gear that whoever picks them up and turns them on while looking through them says holy shite.

They are slightly less expensive than the HDX, but are only rated to IPX4, whereas the HDX's are IPX7. I compared them side by side with a buddy's, not sure if his were HDX or previous gen but his were made in China, the Bass Pro black ones were from Philippines. If you are going to be getting poured on spring for the HDX's.

I have a die from Etsy in the mail now with my trust name - plan is to test stamp on some aluminum before taking it to a lower. Ended up being $80 shipped from Spain.

Don’t do this. Didn’t work - too metal to displace.

Silencer Shop has CAT RDMs for $200 off - ODB, their 308 low back pressure can, for $699. Picked up a WB but now sold out.

ETA: looks like they restocked the WBs

$1000-1200 as said the Cat KK or WB are about as good as it gets.


They released an alleged contract overrun for their Black Friday - an beefed up inconel WB that’s a few ounces heavier can be had for $849:

If I remember right Pew ranked the CGS Hyperion as the quietest in that platform. That was the main reason I bought one for my 6.5, no complaints at all from me with the can, the weight of it is pretty amazing.


I also have a Hyperion - it sounds great, light as hell but I hate that it’s got a direct thread. Needs a certain barrel diameter to shoulder up to or an sig taper. I wish it had a hub mount.
