    Any love for the Zermatt Matterhorn?

    The issue I had was with a ckyepod knob hitting. It clears the factory weights just fine, it’s the mdt weight that hangs lower. Although I don’t need all the weight I was trying to add, it’s literally the only thing that has even annoyed me thus far.

    Any love for the Zermatt Matterhorn?

    I have a manners tcs, manners prs2, and mdt ACC premier g2 in the stable and have recently been able to get quite a bit of experience with the Matterhorn. I really enjoy the Matterhorn more than any of my other options. So much so, planning on selling my TCS soon. I don’t really know how to...

    Primer seating depth?

    I just bottom them out and make sure they’re not protruding. In the chase for precision, I would advise There is a lot more low hanging fruit in your process, and your fundamentals, which would yield more measurable results long before primer seating depth would actually be noticeable.

    25 Creedmoor is SAAMI approved

    They did a subtle release in their yearly package they send out to folks on their mailing list. Has a listing of all cartridges bullets, etc. they offer, and 25 Creedmoor was listed as a new loaded ammo option this year, although I haven’t seen any other releases on it

    Latest in binos with a reticle?

    Agreed. I was running a demo pair spotting an ELR side stage at our last match and it was an unfair advantage for everyone who asked me to spot for them as I was able to give extremely accurate corrections instead all the other spotters on the line calling “about 2’ left and up a bit’ was too...

    Spotters Zeiss Conquest HDX LRP 15x56 reticle binos released

    I spent some time with these a couple weeks ago and…..wow. Glass is right with the prior generation which is really good, reticle can be rotated with a ring on the left side, and reticle was just right to be able to call corrections accurately all the way out. I don’t need them for my style...

    Best bang for the buck action in R700 platform?

    Mack bros evo2 is nice as well, but I love my origin for the swappable bolt heads.

    Why so many ziess s3 for sale?

    This time of year, it’s just people swapping stuff around between seasons. Sometimes it’s in anticipation of something new to drop at SHOT, or people just being able to resist trying something else. Great time to find a deal on something. I have a couple, they punch above their price point...

    Have a pair in the mail. Can’t wait to report back. Based on my experience behind The old 15’s, they’re going to be amazing.

    223 bolt gun and 62 eld-vt

    Lever is the ball equivalent of varget in a lot of cases. And it generates ridiculous speeds. Just don’t run it against The tagged edge and you’ll be ok. I temp tested my arc with it and it only got crazy over 95 degrees. And that was on the very top end of safe. That being said, 90 degrees...
