    Ebola virus patients are being transported from west Africa to Atlanta

    I am stunned at the monumental stupidity involved in the decisions made in allowing this to happen. Auto accidents never happen do they? A few well meaning people at the accident site and then what? Spread it to here by accident and now not only do people drop dead, but can it survive in our...

    Leupold Spotter Question

    I thought the coatings were just anti reflective. There is an actual LFU/ARD combination unit that screws on the front end of the mark IV.

    Range Report Nosler LR Accubonds: BC testing results

    I have utilized your b.c. data in JBM's online data to get several shooters lined up with good data over the past few years and have found it to work great to out past 1000 yards reliably. (I show them how to use Lindy's method with JBM to make Density altitude cards). Thanks for responding &...

    Range Report Nosler LR Accubonds: BC testing results

    Brian, As the 210 velocity is a little slow for the caliber/weight, what sort of BC increase would we expect to see for a jump to 300 win mag velocity(+400-450 fps lets say). I know G7 BC's will change less than G1 BC's with change in velocity, but am not sure how much. Thanks for posting...

    Hunting & Fishing Hunting with a .260

    Its amazing any animals ever died before the advent of bonded bullets and solids... It will take bonded and barnes bullets a LOOOOONG time if ever to catch up to the amount of animals killed by simple cup/core bullets. Its not the arrow in most cases. With cup/core its much more important to...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 1911 shooter Jinxed with G-17?

    Yes. And it was right on for him. Ameriglo sights installed by glock armorer with pusher and calipers showed center installation of original and replacements.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 1911 shooter Jinxed with G-17?

    Well 700 rounds into this gun I have halved my problem and am hitting 3-4" just left most times at 25 yards. Still I cannot completely rid myself of this issue. Have dry fired a lot, but am a little frustrated to say the least. Had Brock shoot the pistol and he ran it just fine. I think my...

    Good, inexpensive chronograph?

    I have a shooting chrony Beta and it has shown itself to be as accurate as a CED and a magnetospeed. Also have seen an F1 work just as accurately. Unless you need advanced functions/capabilities I think you will be happy with one.

    Hunting & Fishing New hunting rifle idea

    56mm objective on a mountain hunting rifle = completely unnecessary height over bore, scope size and weight, and lack of return in cost of any measurable and usable advantage IMHO. 40mm or 50mm at largest should do anything you need and will make a better pointing rifle for quick shooting...

    best overall bolt action rifle for around $800?

    Ok, after seeing so many guys advocating beginners buying the the Mazzerati's of shooting when many of them haven't pulled a trigger 100 times yet, (and many have limited $$). I have to add my .02. Before even thinking about going 6/6.5 creedmore or 260 rem even do this: Go to your local...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 1911 shooter Jinxed with G-17?

    I already raise my shoulders and push my elbows out a little when shooting for speed from previous shooting experience, it helps a lot. I have had mixed results this weekend. I dry fired a pile and shot another 100 Friday evening with a final target looking good with a 3" group centered at...

    ASC 2014 video

    Nice Vid Jered!!!! Quote from Jared upon showing him the dead yote' "oh yeah buddy, you just made primetime!!!" Great bunch of guys to hang out with all around this spring. Hopefully we can line up a match for this fall later this summer.

    PNTC is proud to announce The 1st Annual Trijicon / NRA World Shooting Championship

    Bump for a great time in the making. Can't wait for September to get here!!! (Other than I need to keep burning ammo at a financially ruinious rate to look like I belong there!)

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 1911 shooter Jinxed with G-17?

    Great motivational video. The one thing I notice is when he is holding his rear thumb up where I was he is tending to hit left about where I would have been doing the same. I can only strive to get that fast with the glock though, lol. We will see in September at the Trijicon/PNTC match. The...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 1911 shooter Jinxed with G-17?

    AWESOME REPLY! ^^^^^^ I have been dry firing for a couple hours and am seeing definite improvement on the feel of the trigger with the above instructions. Your synopsis tells me there were several things I was doing wrong for this pistol!! I will try these changes out tomorrow for sure...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 1911 shooter Jinxed with G-17?

    Stock set up. I believe 5.5 lbs. Pulling with center of end finger pad. 200 rounds downrange in first two days trying to see wtf I am doing wrong. I am surrounded by 1911 shooters here, so no immediate help.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 1911 shooter Jinxed with G-17?

    So, Here is the deal: After 20 years of shooting 1911's almost exclusively, I got a G-17 gen 4 for my 40th birthday. (Thank you wifey :D). Now I am impressed with the function of the gun and it has obvious good accuracy. However, my precision when shooting the gun seems jinxed. I...

    Large change in accuracy with barrel temp

    What powder? Less temperature sensitive powders such as 8208xbr and H-1000, etc. may help here.

    DD m4v5 government profile barrel accuracy

    If you go to the HBAR they are generally sub MOA. I run one to 600yards or so with a 1-4 PST and 77 grain smks at 2660fps are impressive (8208xbr if you want to know). This rifle shreds a nickel to quarter sized hole at 100 yards with handloads between 55 and 77 grains. Ball ammo is just over...

    Is 1 in 7 twist too fast ...

    As stated above , bulk/surplus 55's and 62's are not going to win any benchrest competitions, but they may pleasantly surprise you. I have seen lots of xm-855 shoot just over an inch at 100 and lots of 55's not far behind more than once or twice. Bench it, shoot it, and then blast away as...
