I'm less than impressed with the distance between the window and the mirrors on a lot of these newer 1/2 tons.
They really need to bridge that gap better if one expects to get a solid rest.
The Tacoma and 4Runners are still about perfect for hunting IME.

How loud is the safety, think it'd be an issue if the truck was just idling? Laughin'! Cool rifle, Travis. Are you going to paint it so that it blends in with your truck/window/beer can?

Travis, check out the night hunting videos on the Fieldsports Channel on Youtube. Those boys got it goin' on. Night vision, "moderators", through-the-scope video, the works. For a place that is so anti-, Britain's got some serious killing going on.
Their little suvs have all kinds of elecronical crap hanging out the top. Must be some serious cash involved as everything there costs an arm and a leg by our standard.

Someone said 7.62x39?
I do like the sound of that. Been looking for a decent rifle in that caliber that I don't care if it gets banged up a little in the truck. don't want to do that to the a 700$ cz.
I have two 223s. a howa 1500 stainless hogue stock and a t3. Think one (howa) is going to go, to get the. 7.62x39 if they come out.
All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.

I'm begging them to add 6x45 and 6.8 SPC II. They've told me to GFM so far...
I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!

On to a more realistic question, what about lefty's? A sponsored TV personality shared that they were hoping to have LH rifles out in 2016. Are you hearing the same?

Pappy, I would check that out but unfortunately, I despise foreigners and anything they do with their time. Women excluded. Obviously. Travis

Obviously.
Yellow, red, black, and white...
Blind, crippled, or crazy.
It's all good. Some are just better than others. If you turn one down, you'll always be one behind, and can never catch up.
There; I think some part of that should have offended just about everyone.

I'd like a 6x45 myself, but the Grendel bridges that gap pretty well. I'd happily settle for that.

You losers sit around waiting for those bastard cartridges while I keep shooting my .223 out the window.

I like it. I'm thinking .243 would be nice if ever available.
Won't fit. (That's what she said) Travis I thought your stiff was mini...errr...your mini was stiff.

Not sure if it's legal but given all the spooky cock as of late, I think this mini-gun would be awesome for road hunting and ground pounding.

Travis Good point. They use the same scope mounts as the other Howas?
