    PCP air rifle recommendation around $1000

    I have a gen1 Mrod .22 that I had an airgunsmith do a deep tune (essentially, he blueprinted it — unfortunately, he’s no longer doing those jobs). Trigger was lightened to less than half a pound and breaks super crisply. With the right pellets, it’ll shoot one hole groups all day at under 30...

    Inexpensive Sig Kilo 2000 mount

    The Thingverse model had a version with an Arca dovetail, so I suspect he could. Write Troy and ask — very nice guy.

    Inexpensive Sig Kilo 2000 mount

    Like most Kilo 2000 owners, I cannot fathom why Sig did not include some sort of tripod mount with it. I’ve seen the milled aluminum ones out there, but while they are nice I didn’t feel like dropping $60-70 on it. In doing some Google Fu on the subject, I came across some plans for a 3d...

    Camera/Camcorder as a spotter

    Good thought; I suspect that they'll be available for under $400 once the P1000 hits the market . 83x optical (plus more digital) zoom and a 1080p video feed may be enough. Please let us know how it works. Suggestion: pair it with a cheap battery-powered 1080p portable monitor (10-13")...

    Camera/Camcorder as a spotter

    OK, we may definitely have something here. Check out this video which zooms to a high rise that appears to be at least a mile away: https://twistedsifter.com/videos/the-3000mm-zoom-on-the-nikon-coolpix-p1000/ Notice that despite there being plenty of mirage, the camera is still able to...

    Camera/Camcorder as a spotter

    Assuming it gives a good enough image at the distances we want (we'll just have to wait until somebody gets one and lets us all know), I'd love to see one of the shot tracker apps for the remote target camera systems adapted to use the feed from this camera. Envision: this camera on a solid...

    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    WRT the Timney trigger for the RPR, check my review of it on TTAG: http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2017/03/louis-k-bonham/gear-review-timney-two-stage-trigger-ruger-precision-rifle/ Bottom line: RPR stock trigger isn't bad, but the Timney is way better.

    Scope calibration on Ballistic AE?

    After reading Lowlight's recent articles noting the importance of calibrating your ballistic calculator to your scope, I've been trying to find where in Ballistic AE you can make those adjustments. Can't find where -- anybody know how to do it? LKB
