Last two competition was a disaster for me that I really thought the barrel on my 375 Cheytac is toast. The bore on the barrel after only 500 rounds look like the skin of an African crocodile. Prior to sending it to the smith for re-barelling, I gave it a thorough scrubbing and put together a...
I had a chance to use this combo on my hunt last month. I'm truly amazed with the advancement in electro optics technology as it relates to hunting. The Garmin Foretrex 701 loaded with Applied Ballistic programs complements the Sig rangefinder by giving the shooter ability to read the distance...
My wife asked me last September what would I want for my birthday. I told her get me an AR Rifle. She went to a Gunshop and got me this... a Bushmaster BA50 :shock:
Went to shoot Ultra Long Range Match near Barstow Sunday with a dozen other guys form Arizona, Nevada and Northern California. This is a monthly shoot sponsored by big name company like Vortex, Cutting Edge Bullet and Snipertac to name a few. Three 40"X 40" target were placed at varying...
As some of you may remember, I'd posted my 7MM Practical Longrange Hunter build in here a couple months ago. The build was delayed due to the problem I've encountered with the rifle. After ironing some issues I've had with the TL action, I finally able to developed the load for the rifle...
So much for a 7lb. rifle. This will bring the weight of my newest build to around 8 lbs. Leupold did it's homework on this one. I love everything about this scope. It's well thought out.
With the rifle nearing completion, time to develop loads. Can't wait to try these two javelins to see which one will work with my rifle. I'm expecting 2875 to 2900fps + with these bad boys.
I'm in a process of building a light carrying hammer. I already have component on hand and just waiting for the action to arrive from Pennsylvania. I settled on 7-300 for practicality. I was planning on 28 Nosler chambering or 7MM Remington Magnum but ultimately settled on the 7MM-300 Winchester...
Been working and testing the accuracy and consistency of the 175 LRX BT .308 bullet from Barnes as a substitute for the 180 grain TTSX that I use for my 300 Winchester Magnum. This new batch was done with outmost of care and attention to detail as usual. The chronograph reading showed single...
Well, believe it or not guys I'm still hunting and shooting although not as much as I used to since I got into cycling. That's the reason why I haven't been active in this forum for quite sometime. All that probably will change starting next year. I will ease up on my cycling and hunt and shoot...
This is the first time loading the 300 Grain Berger Hybrid OTM for my 338 Lapua Ackley. I haven't used nothing but SMK for this rifle so I don't know what to expect. I run the data through my Ballistic program and to my surprised the 300 grain SMK has a bit better performance downrange than the...
I and couple of diehard long range shooter friend went out last Sunday to shoot steel at long range. I haven't been shooting much lately ever since I got into cycling so when my buddies called, I skipped my ride that day and went out shooting instead. I'm glad I went.
We set up our steel...
This is the picture of the recovered 180 grain Barnes TTSX bullet from a hog that my friend Frank shot a couple of weeks ago. I reloaded this bullet for his Gruning Custom 300 Weatherby rifle. The bullet was recovered underneath the hide on the lower chest area after entering the right ham. I...
