Rick, I'm 99% sure we had to buy the receiver and , yes, the price was more than the other providers. However, like you, we had tried several others and they were mediocre to terrible.
So far, Starlink is/was more expensive but the performance has proven to be much better for us, anyway.

We've had it for 4 or 5 months. So far, it's been great, no issues to speak of. In really crappy weather you may lose signal but it resets itself pretty fast.

I currently own two Tikka 6.5 PRCs and have had a third. None of mine have been the Roughtech stocked versions but the action are the same. Tikkas are my first choice across the board. Bear in mind their barrels are known for being "slow" compared to other brands so you often won't get equal...
I live in central Missouri. This past week we had temps in the 60s to 80s depending on the day. We woke up this morning to 67⁰ and partly sunny.
It's now 31⁰ and snowing it's butt off. Lows tonight are in the teens, 20s for a high tomorrow, teens again tomorrow night. After that, a rapid rise...
I received an email from Brownells yesterday stating they have Reloder 17 in stock, $65.99 per lb. They only have it in single pound containers, nothing larger.

I actually own four .41's. I have the Redhawk, a S&W Model 58, a S&W 657 Lew Horton special edition with a 3-inch barrel and round butt, as well as a Marlin 1894 lever gun.
This morning was the opening day of Missouri's Alternative portion of our deer season. Alternative means black powder weapons, handguns, archery, atlatls, and air guns can be used. No centerfire rifles or shotguns are allowed
I had never handgun hunted before but I have owned a Ruger Redhawk...
Can anyone explain to me why these guns have gotten so expensive? I've watched the prices steadily climb but can't seem to identify a root cause.
I own three, a Grice black synthetic 7600 in 280, a 1980's 7600 in 270, and a 1960's 760 30-06.
