    Kelby's Prometheus Action

    I just shot a site visit video with the Kelbly guys that hopefully I will have edited and posted in the next few weeks. In the meantime though I do have a few insights on the subject of ignition. They do hand fit some of the small bolt pieces, most notably the cocking piece, to ensure function...

    Printed Precision Trickler

    What, You don't want a rollout like some other automatic powder dispensing products I can remember? Just think of all the forum posts you could generate. All the cool kids launch with beta software, the tech bros in silicon valley showed us the way.

    Printed Precision Trickler

    I gotta say, when I saw this post I got a little excited hoping for a sort of do it yourself kit option where you would buy the non-3d printed parts in a nice convenient kit with some profit markup from the designer and then 3d print and assemble the rest yourself. Given the open source nature...

    2025 BigJimFish Review / Article blog: More 350L, Garmin and Athlon Chronos, Leopold Mark 4HD, BurstFire, Field Optics Research, videos and visits

    Update 4-6-2025 First off, I made it back to the range on a day when the wind wasn’t gusting to 30mph and Nosler’s new 180gr 350 Legend offering performed as expected in the PurePrecision 350L coming in at an average 5 shot group size of 1” and average mean radius of .38. I did not shift the...

    Optics 30mm & 1" rings, APA, Bobro, Leupold

    Clearing out some ring sets I'm not using anymore. All are used in good condition. First up, APA (American Precision Arms) 30mm aluminum rings marked .750 on the bottom. Presumably .75" is the rail to center line on these. $125 shipped CONUS Next up are some Bobro vertical split 30mm...

    Accessories MDT poly AICS .223 mags & pic / arca ckye-pod mount

    2x 10rd MDT AICS .223 magazines. These have less than 20 rounds through them. They were just never the favorite mags of my .223 and they don't fit my 350 Legend as my other .223 mags do. As such, I'm selling them in near new condition. $65 shipped CONUS MDT Ckye-POD attachment head mount -...

    Garmin Xero C1 Pro chronograph

    You guys are definitely convincing me to make sure not to update my software. I'm looking to keep the 1k+ round streak alive of never having the Garmin fail to capture a rifle shot. It has even done well enough with pistol rounds given that I never have it positioned within it's recommended...

    X - Vectronix Shooting Solutions

    Based on how I have used laser rangefinders in conjunction with BaseMap before, I believe you would be placing the point while in the BaseMap app and not from within the VECSS app. With the premium versions of BaseMap, there is a remote marker option under the tools section that what you would...

    2025 BigJimFish Review / Article blog: More 350L, Garmin and Athlon Chronos, Leopold Mark 4HD, BurstFire, Field Optics Research, videos and visits

    Update 3-20-2025 Did a range day with the 350L, new Nosler 180 grain whitetail country ammunition, and a number of handloads. The wind was downright atrocious, super gusty and variable between 0 and 30mph. It was so strong that two targets blew off the board and the rocking of the target board...

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    Your right, the LR is pretty similar to the TOR which is darn near identical to the MilXT. 2) What bothers me a great deal when I encounter it in reticles is a lot of mixing and matching of graduations such as half mill graduations on the vertical stadia but .2mil graduations on the horizontal...

    Garmin Xero C1 Pro chronograph

    Put my review of the Garmin Chrono up today after a year of use. It's been a lifesaver I never would have gotten some of the data I ended up needing on the 350L without it and I am certain I would not have gone down some of the investigative paths that have been fruitful without that data. It is...

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    My thoughts on a reticle: First off, my take is certainly going to be a little biased by how often I am switching between designs due to doing a bunch of optical reviews each year. If something gets real complicated, I generally end up hating it because I switch back and forth too often to be...
