I think it just barely edges out the carbon-barreled version of the 2020 Waypoint, but probably can’t beat the Bergara Premier Divide if it’s available in a cartridge you’re looking for. If you want more cartridge options, hold out a few months for the Bergara B14 Squared Crest to start hitting stores (probably around March 2023). Under $1,600 – If you’re looking for a rifle chambered in a short action, I’d get a Springfield 2020 Waypoint with a steel barrel or the Sig Cross.It’s the best action on any production firearm, very accurate, and comes with a threaded muzzle unlike other tikka models. Under $1,200 – Tikka T3x Roughtech – This is a no-brainer.The Tikka T3x is lighter, but doesn’t have a threaded muzzle, which is a travesty at this price point. The only drawback is it’s a little hefty for mountain hunts. Around $850 – Bergara B14 Ridge is exceptional with a great barrel and action, paired with a very rigid stock.This is the same rifle as the CVA Cascade recommended for under $500, but this version has a Cerakoted action and barrel for more durability in the elements, and comes in a nice camo pattern. It has a nice Bergara barrel on it so you can expect excellent accuracy, it feeds reliably, and is built solidly for the price point. If a close friend asked me what hunting rifle to buy at each price point, these would be my recommendations: I can be an affiliate for just about any gun brand, so it doesn’t impact my recommendations. This post contains affiliate links to help monetize this site. ![]() After reviewing and owning over 40 bolt-action hunting rifles, here are are the best of the best. It can be tough to watch all the individual reviews of rifles that I do on Youtube and get a sense for where each rifle stacks up on the “Jim Scale”, so in this post, I’ll give it to you straight. ![]() 9/6/2023 0 Comments Odyssey g9 firmware![]() If you need a new firmware, please navigate to the Firmware section and download the latest update.

But it wasn’t just Princess Leia serving as inspiration McQueen’s collection seemed to somehow predict Queen Amidala’s style in Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, which would open two years later. In 1997, Alexander McQueen debuted his “Eclect Dissect” show, featuring elaborate headdresses and geometric hairstyles that couldn’t help but evoke a certain princess in a galaxy far, far away. Other designers paid attention too, from a 1998 DKNY campaign to Alexander McQueen’s 1998 spring ready-to-wear line, which featured strapless, cropped, and sheer shirts for men, as well as strappy bandage dresses and one pieces reminiscent of Leeloo’s white dress. Crop tops, already popular in streetwear, evolved in Gaultier’s hands to become more utilitarian punk, and bright oranges and reds remained popular for years after even Leeloo’s flaming orange hair inspired the heroines of Run Lola Run and Alias.

A top-of-the-shop ‘HiFi Plus’ subscription, meanwhile, buys access to some music mastered in Sony 360 Reality Audio and Dolby Atmos spatial audio, plus access to millions of truly high-resolution audio titles.
