The Cadex Covert is not a *shortcut*
The Cadex CDX-SS Seven S.T.A.R.S. Covert in .308 looks like the compact answer. It is not. It is a serious precision rifle that happens to fold short.
Precision
Technique, data, rimfire and centrefire precision, rifles, optics, and the craft of putting rounds where they are meant to go.
Advocacy
The breach they won't *pay* for.
On April 27, the federal government confirmed in writing: no compensation was ever paid to the 2.2 million firearm owners exposed in the 2021 Canadian Firearms Program breach. The vendor still has the contract.
Handloading
The free *upgrade*.
Vihtavuori quietly updated its Reloading Data Center this week. For a Canadian handloader working on a powder that is actually stocked here, it is now the most usable free tool in the hobby. The upgrade costs nothing, and that is rare in this hobby.
Precision
The *data* book.
Components are up, rimfire matches are filling, and the thing separating winners from also-rans at Canadian precision matches is often a notebook, not another rifle part.
Gear
The Cadex CDX-300 TAC makes *.300 PRC* make sense
The Cadex CDX-300 TAC is too heavy, too expensive, and too specific to flatter casual ownership. Good. In .300 PRC, those are not sins. They are the point.
Precision
The .22 *moment*.
Centrefire components are up 250 per cent. The prohibited list keeps growing. Half the buyback was returned. None of that has slowed the fastest-growing precision discipline in Canada. For new PAL holders, the path in is rimfire.
