    Anschutz 1710 at a Dallas are vendor - Is this bad condition?

    Thanks for the concern. ;) That's probably 2 or 3 hundreds rounds of Center X or Midas since the last cleaning. I'll probably just shoot a few hundred more and then clean it and see if it's worth saving.

    child rifle?

    I'd get some 10 round magazines and put a good scope on the Scout. Harris bipod and you're good to go until he outgrows the size of the Scout. Take him to local PRS, NRL22 and bench rest matches. He can get the feel of competition and upgrade later as needed.

    US test centers, experiences, post test, etc.

    Several of us had the whole day reserved at the Ohio Center last year. If the rifle was in the stock or chassis, they kept it in the stock and put the whole assembly in a fixture. If only the barreled action was brought, they put it in the fixture for that action. They were extremely...

    NRL22 vs. PRS Rimfire vs ???

    You're welcome to come. Most months we have a Long Gong match the following day. 300 yards at steel. 8", 6" and 4". Lots of fun with frustration. :) If you're going to drive that far you might as well shoot more. Check out Long Gong on Facebook. Yes, you may show photos. We would like to see...

    NRL22 vs. PRS Rimfire vs ???

    Here are some photos from the last Tactical Benchrest at Powerline Range near St Clairsville OH. The props have been made to duplicate as much as possible the props used for the regular match but allow shooters to use a stool to sit on while shooting. This is still a work in progress. Next match...

    Lapua Ammo Lot numbers, most important numbers to match up

    Lot numbers are different now. I don’t know what they mean now. The 2 lower boxes are a few years old and the top box is from the test center last year.

    Outlaw Steel and Tactical Bench Match at Powerline

    Powerline Range near St Clairsville OH had their first Outlaw Steel/Tactical Bench match of the year today. This is a followup of this thread from last year. https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/old-people-precision-rimfire.7155833/ Here are some pictures.

    Ultimate KRG Bravo upgrade

    I was on the KRG website and found a set of pins that I think will work. I ordered a set to try. I have the offset on my Vudoo. My wife is going to start to shoot and she shoots left handed so I'm going to set up 2 cheek risers to switch when she shoots.

    How to get a fixed zero AND more than 2 revs on a Vortex?

    We're shooting Long Gong at Powerline in eastern Ohio. It takes some quality ammo for sure.

    How to get a fixed zero AND more than 2 revs on a Vortex?

    What I did is was use Burris rings and put added cant in the rings until the bottom of adjustment of the scope was less than a full turn to bottom. I didn't have a good zero stop at zero but I could keep track of turns that way. I would turn back toward bottom until it stopped and turn it back...

    Best purse for concealed carry?

    https://www.gtmoriginal.com/ Gun Tote'n Mamas. My wife has a couple different ones. They are well made and hold up well. She carried one several years until is started to look worn and she replaced it with an identical one.
