    Gunsmithing Accuracy International Mount Inch/Pounds Torque ?

    Re: Accuracy International Mount Inch/Pounds Torque One followup newbie question - I have the AI 28 MOA mount, but there's no indication which end is forward. Which side do the clamp screws go on?

    .416 Barrett M99 accuracy?

    Re: .416 Barrett M99 accuracy? Yah, I didn't understand the comment about accuracy @ 100 vs @ 500 either. Unless the bullet is aerodynamically unstable (e.g. it's tumbling) it will follow a predictable arc once it leaves the barrel - the forces acting on it are environmental, not related to...

    PWS MK214

    Re: PWS MK214 Very nice, and once again _thank you_ for sharing all your data & observations! I find it so helpful to have first-hand accounts, especially from people with far more experience than I Your observation of the 214's recoil matches my own; it's a pleasure to shoot and both the...

    .416 Barrett M99 accuracy?

    Re: .416 Barrett M99 accuracy? > Typical accuracy of the model 99 with the new Hornady 450gr .416 ammo is sub MOA That would be great news - what's the source of the info? I don't wish to seem skeptical, but it's different from prior info.

    .416 Barrett M99 accuracy?

    Re: .416 Barrett M99 accuracy? It does, thank you. It's disappointing that the gun isn't more accurate. For its intended purpose I suppose it doesn't need to be (1 vehicle >> 20 inches @ 1000 yards) but it does diminish the appeal for big bang target shooting.

    .416 Barrett M99 accuracy?

    Apologies in advance if there's a thread covering this topic; the obvious choices didn't find one. I'm curious what data is available about the accuracy of the bolt-action .416 Barrett? I read some discouraging stories about the accuracy of the .50 (2 MOA!!?) but nothing about the .416. I...

    PWS MK214

    Re: PWS MK214 I finally got out to the range today to fire my MK214. It's a <span style="font-weight: bold">really</span> nice rifle to shoot; the recoil is incredibly tame, my 12-year-old had no problem capping off 5 rounds in a row and proclaimed it recoiled "like a solid push, but not a...
