    30-06 build for long range!

    Nice shooting. I been reloading for the 06 since 1989 my go to powder is or was IMR 4064 for sierra 165. Sub moa in my rifle. Problem is that powder is hard to find. Imr 4350 is supposed to be good as well. Both are extruded powders so do not meter well I recommend an electronic powder measure...

    30-06 build for long range!

    Nice. My first rifle build was an 06. Look up German Salazar he is dead now but some of his articles may still be around on accurate shooter. He used to co.pete with the 06 when everyone else was using newer fancier calibers. Thing is he would place all the time. I think he used 190gr with imr...

    Red dot question

    It was hitting high so I adjusted the poi a couple times ....then bottomed out I agree it is junk. But it was sitting around so I thought I would try it to see if I liked the red dot. I will probably eventually get a fastfire or other better red dot. I just don't want to spend the money on a...

    Red dot question

    Mini dot. I put it on the pictinny portion of the rail to test it and see if I liked a red dot on that particular rifle. I have the hanibal rail that has places to attach red dots like the fastfire directly. This one is a rite on I had lying around. If I take it off the pictinny base and...

    Red dot question

    I put a red dot on a mini 14 scout rail. The problem is sighting it in it will not adjust far enough down it high impact at full adjustment Now if I lower the red dot itself will that move the point of impact the correct way or make the problem worse? Do I need to raise it?

    Precision AR -15 10 shot moa groups

    Another thing is buy a couple boxes of match ammo. Federal gold metal 77 gr and winchester 69 gr match or another good match ammo. Try a couple with diffrent weights and bullets And see how it shoots. If it shoots crap then it is either you or the rifle then go from there. No way to know until...

    Precision AR -15 10 shot moa groups

    Here is a good head start. This guy is good https://ultimatereloader.com/2022/02/13/re-creating-bergers-amazing-77-otm-223-load/ With your shooting concentrate on your follow through and watch the improvement. Also have a buddy that really knows how to shoot try it. If he gets the same results...

    Pillar bedding

    I am not sure either is better or worse just a different approach to the same problem. The idea is when you tighten your action screws it is in the same place every time thus the use of a torque. In theory if you torque it the same every time there is zero give in the stock and no poi shift...

    My redneck SPR story

    I think you have learned a lot. I'm not the smartest person here either but I am not the dumbest either. I hate to say it but the gun mags you tube etc have brainwashed us into thinking if you don't have the best you can not have fun. In my opinion it is driven by the industry manufactures...

    My redneck SPR story

    My redneck SPR story

    It wasn't to cause a stir but your telling me of all the millions of rifles made over say the last 30 years more than 1% are sub MOA? Grandpas old 30-06 Springfield is sub MOA? Really think about it. Or you could just be that guy that likes to argue. Either way you agree or disagree I don't care...

    Best barrel length for 308 out to 400 yards?

    Honestly go for the longest you can get. If your not packing it around you don't need the handiness. Faster bullet means less chance of bullet not opening up at longer range. Faster bullet will buck the wind better than the same bullet at lower velocity. Less blast in the face than a shorter...
