    A pair of NRL Lapua’s

    It’s a single stick of powder in some cases or two depending on which Hodgdon Extreme powder you’re using.

    A pair of NRL Lapua’s

    Here’s how the spread between 41.2 target charge weight numbers look for 30 pieces. 17@41.18 10@41.20 3@41.22 It will vary from time to time on the heavy side if the trickle speed is too high. I don’t really care though. I can’t shoot well enough to make a difference at a match for that...

    A pair of NRL Lapua’s

    Thank you very much Ernie, and Guy! Guy, I use the Short Action Customs Modular sizing die due to it allows me to use it for anything that is a x47 Lapua. The shoulder/neck bushings take care of sizing the entire length of the neck and the shoulder gets stretched to the neck. A 25x47 comes...

    Barrel Cleaning Products

    I tested the BoreTech Suppressor cleaner's for Zak Smith in two of his cans when they first came out with it. It’s a two part system, A and B. It worked extremely well and clean everything down to bare metal. Unfortunately it is expensive, and not something TBAC would take on due to the...

    Reflecting

    Vince, I didn’t see this until just now. I remember years ago when you were working as a prison guard, and the trouble you were having back then? I’ve been single most of my adult life, a failed short term marriage thirty years ago, and at one point twenty years ago tried to have children...

    scope mounting / alignment wedges

    I have one very similar. It helps with its intended purpose quickly. Just make sure you don’t squeeze it down before the scope is fully seated in the rings. One piece scope ring tend to not have a lot of space for it to work. Spur rings come with the same device, without the bottom piece...

    Night force. NX8 vs Leupold

    Yes, I see lots of Leupold scopes at Shooting Events, and I know even more Top shooters that swear by them….. So much that I bought one too a little over a year ago and it works flawlessly! I have a Mark 5 3-18 with the PR2 reticle and love it! That said it is a 1st FP scope and YES, the...

    A Deal is a Deal

    You should look up to see if there’s a Black Walnut producer in your area or near you? They’ll buy them from you! Evidently there’s some people that really love eating them. Might be worth a trip to recoup some of your expenses on those trees.

    A pair of NRL Lapua’s

    Thank you very much for the kind words about Casper Guy….. He’s a hoot, and loves being outside hunting with me. I don’t have a lot of experience with the Elite Hunting bullets except head shots, which weren’t far and only for meat hunts or Coyotes. That said I’d much rather use a Nosler...

    A pair of NRL Lapua’s

    Installed the MUB mod dos plate to the tripod via a ball head. Worked better, but I don’t like adding more equipment, and weight to my kit. That said it did work for putting rounds onto each plate.

    A pair of NRL Lapua’s

    A lot of shots are off a tripod, so that’s what I’m training for. Prone is way too easy even for a KYL Rack at 320. Well even after making a 1/10 mil adjustment up I was barely hitting the 6” and 4” plate which I saw and held at the 11 O’clock position on the 4” plate only center it up. The...

    A pair of NRL Lapua’s

    I have a three day field match coming up so I’m going to do some training today since it’s so nice outside this morning. I always check my zero before proceeding. That said I don’t always adjust the scope until I arrive at the location of a match the day before. Here’s today’s Cold Bore, and...

    Barrel Cleaning Products

    It’ll shoot a 1” group between 100 and 120 yards with Speer RB and FF Swiss with a RWS precision cap. In Idaho we can only use primitive weapons for muzzle loading season. I found three round balls that went 200+ yards that my friend Elizabeth shot that missed the steel plate at 120 yards, but...

    Hodgdon 335 Equivalent

    IMR 8208 XBR was a far better choice than the H335 I had been using in a M4 5.56 NATO AR with 69, and 77 gr SMK’s. If that helps?

    Barrel Cleaning Products

    I forgot to mention Isso Bore paste, which I’ve had, and have it sitting around, but have never used it. Frank Green at Bartlein Barrels, and a few others had stated using it will wear down the rifling if used aggressively or often enough, and will remove metal! That said that it will clean a...

    Barrel Cleaning Products

    I’ve used most of my life Shooters Choice MC-7, until I switched to BoreTech back in 2018-‘19? What I found was BoreTech’s chameleon gel really gets rid of the carbon similar to JB Bore paste and Kroil I’ve used for 25 years and MC-7, CR-10 too with copper bullets. Both of those the off...

    Sinclair International scope lapping tool kit.

    Sinclair International 1” Scope Lapping kit. Used very little, has not been used in years. Hence the surface rust on top which is not the primary surface for using it. I purposely put a photo of the rust so the buyer is aware. It’ll come off easily. $45 shipped USPS Priority Mail.
