Nothing to do with being repeatedly punched in the head?

This is one of several reasons I shoot factory ammo…

Also deciding between these two optics. Razor at 2700 and NF at 2500. Thoughts? Any ideas why the Razor fell off in PRS?

Both great Optically with a slight edge to the Razor, The NF paralax is quick and easy, also the NF is a little lighter. Not a fan of the Razor turrets, the NF is just better turret wise for me.

Not to throw a grenade in here but I think the Element Theos beats both those optics.

Sold!

Not my rifle, but I did coat it. How sweet is this with the RAL7005 6-36 PMII!

Damn this is hot. Gonna see if I can find a stencil like this...

My 6.5cm bolt gun has a SiCo break. I've shot it with the omega 300 and the flow 762 (just screwed the hub from the omega onto the hux) both group well. I can't realy hear which is quieter. (tinnitus) I ran the hux in a recent PRS and it was quiet enough that the shot timer had trouble registering shots. If the question was for a gas gun, then the hix or another flow through can 100%

.

If you can find RWS....

I run winchester for my gassers

and Hornady for bolt guns - yeah. But it works.

I save the Lapua and RWS I have on hand (about 800 of each) for when I mean business. Fortunately, I'm almost always in play mode these days

Guess which powder is which. One pile of powder is the residue left in the hybrid cases. The other is a common powder, not so hard to find. I am almost positive they are the same powder.

I think trying to build a match around having the leading-edge gear like triple/double pulls or high-end tripods outlawed is not the right approach.

Not to mention designing the match around making the employment of this type of gear unlikely, is next to impossible. Thats the point in itself of getting such gear that allows the shooter to turn a seeming extremely hard shooting position into a good chance of getting stable and high percentage of hitting a target.

Now, yes, it's real hard to make a match worth it to someone with some experience looking for a challenge but also entertaining to the newcomer. You need both to succeed.

Heres an idea, different target sets per stage for the different experience levels. It's a lot more work granted, but you re newer shooters will get 3-3.5 MOA targets and then you make a 2 to 3 set for the guys that have experience already. If im not mistaken the GAP Grind incorporates something similar? But i might be wrong.

You want the new guys coming back, getting better gear and improving and the more experienced guys coming back for the challenge. Also, within a year your new guys will be experienced, give them something to work for and stay.

"Gamer gear" is just good gear if its reliable. The whole gamer thing is made up.

Creedmoor Sports was sending out backordered Lapua 223 last week. So if you didn't get it then you are in for a long long wait.

I have been using Starline in my bolt guns. In my ARs they get whatever I pick up at the range.

I would get the Shaw or the BCA before anything made by WC

I liked the old plastic boxes better. Lapua always had 101 cases in there. They knew one had to be sacrificed to the Aztec gods.

Got my brother to print me a 100 round reloading tray. Should have done this way sooner.

Still available. No trades please.

Or Best Offer

that's why I'm inclined to keep it this time around.....

after I play the "emotional damage" video, screwtube suggests some more videos for me to watch, and there's a scantily clad woman diving in the ocean, and I click that and all my troubles are washed away

for a minute.

now I'm frustrated again. In a different way. I'll probably get the IP system before I get her.

Pass the lube

One thing I learned the hard way with coatings like Cerakote, or any thick application to the lower receiver, was that build-up inside the mag catch slot prevented mag release when using a loaded magazine sometimes.

I had to file down some of my mag catch slots to get them to function, so it’s something I added to my personal checklist.

What troops really think of the Army’s new XM7 rifle

And it’s a total POS. US Army and PEO Soldier cherry-picked only positive comments from soldiers, while deleting these, so one of them went to Reddit.

“I was recently quoted in multiple publications saying nice things about the Sig XM7 / Vortex XM157, and unfortunately, the 10 minutes worth of critiques I had before saying one nice thing didn’t quite make the cut,” u/vindictivevader wrote in an r/army post. The user, who appears to be Sgt. Colston himself, goes on to explain the issues that he experienced during the live fire and about 2,000 rounds through one XM7. “I have never seen a weapon have so many malfunctions. Namely, failure to extract/eject even when properly cleaned (checked by sig guy) and on adverse gas setting using the GP round.” When new weapons are fielded by the military, product experts are sent by the manufacturer to train the end users. The XM7 is designed to be run with its suppressor and the adverse gas setting allows increased gas into the system to cycle the weapon more violently in case it is dirty. “two-piece casing blows apart occasionally, stuck casings are common in the XM250.”


The XM157 was touted as an advanced digital optic that takes the guesswork out of long-range shots using lasers and computers. However, a digital scope is bound to have teething issues. “The Vortex XM157 is shit. I usually like vortex products, but this one is bad,” u/vindictivevader wrote. “Several ocular focus adjustment rings/diopter adjustments just randomly migrated, the brightest setting is nowhere near bright enough (almost invisible on a sunny day)…Severe zero migration on the lasers.”
