Thompson/Center Upgrades for Venture II, Compass II | Guns & Gear

[@kansaspartan7625]

Nice to see a lefty using a “right handed” bolt gun correctly.

[@shanehall5659]

Does the Compass ll accept extended mags like Rugers ? TIA

[@BrassBashers]

My dad got one for just over $200, may have just been the compass 1 though. Seems okay and he said it's accurate enough, but about 2 months after getting it the barrel had rust on it. This seemed strange after only leaving it in his truck for a week or two. We take our rifles into swamps and will hunt deer even if it's lightly raining, but he didn't even do that. So while I was going to get one I decided against it. We put our guns through some harsh conditions sometimes and if one rusts that easily then I don't want it.

Price of going cheap.

[@BrassBashers]

@@dearbulls yeah I just can't deal with it lol. We had to maintain guns with blueing on them growing up, and it was a pain at times. With today's coatings I shouldn't have to do much to keep a gun from rusting (in normal conditions)

[@TheRossillini]

Even savage will do it man the blueing now days isn’t what it use to be

[@BrassBashers]

@@TheRossillini that's the point, it's 2020. I don't want blueing, I want a coating that won't rust or corrode the steel underneath.

[@TheRossillini]

BrassBashers I hear ya

T/C needs to bring back the Dimension accessories

[@dearbulls]

My compass got 5 stress bumps on the muzzle following the rifling which shows the barrel metal has not been properly relieving the stress. I'm not feeling confident in using it anymore. This time it is the case of "you get what you paid for".

I got the full insurance when I bought it at sportsmans warehouse

[@KD-kf4zm]

Thompson Center (Smith and Wesson) has a lifetime service policy on their guns. No need to stress, they will take care of it at their expense, no need to buy any type of warranty. The compass is a good gun, but obviously manufacturing defects can happen.

[@newera4k333]

what kind of silencer was on the venture 2

[@calicojack556]

I have the Icon which they don't make any more. My Icon is very accurate and has a nice stock.

[@mikelovin7]

T/C needs to bring back the predator models and the .204

[@speskin814]

Would you be able to tell me what scope mounts I need for my TC compass utility for a vortex vanquish 3-9x40? I greatly appreciate your help

[@jagx234]

Stuff that fits Savage 10/110 round receivers work on the Compass II as well. Confirmed by call to OEM

[@sibongileryan6747]

Max tell me about the scope combination with 30-06 Wich scope for hunting you think is doing good for 30-06 shooting 300 yards Wich scope I can pick up ?

[@seannicklas6093]

Hey what suppressor and tripod could I get

[@Duhaubetahiks]

How crisp is that new trigger? 3lbs? 3.5lbs? 4 lbs? Or all in between?

[@asherbelza8868]

Can you used 7.62x51 ammo on 308 t/c compass ?? Thank you

[@anthonymartin6831]

Ja

[@weaglefishing19]

You can generally use 7.62 in 308 but they don't advise the opposite unless you know the chamber is rated for it. 7.62 is less pressure than 308

[@jimsheely5491]

Seriously? Crisp trigger on the Venture II? Mine has a terrible trigger. Creeps and I see no adjustment. Pull needs to also be lower.

[@calicojack556]

Do you have the Compass or the Venture? Perhaps they both have the same trigger.

[@jimsheely5491]

@@calicojack556 mine is like their version of accutrigger

[@calicojack556]

@@jimsheely5491 Well having a crappy trigger is a no-go in my book. My Ikon has a superb adjustable trigger. Too bad T/C seems to have gone away from it.
