    Competition Calendar Sticky Thread?

    Gentlemen - How about a competition calendar sticky? I'm thinking a place where a shooter could research upcoming matches by clicking on the calendar and then in turn on links to upcoming matches. Match organizers could post links to their matches on the calendar, of course. Thoughts?

    Which bubble level is right for me? (List of available parts and issues with each inside)

    I am pleased with the Accuracy 1st level. I tend to cant the rifle significantly to starboard. I also shoot at relatively long distances. The level serves as part of a mental pre-shot checklist that seems to help with consistency and proper form.

    This was my first "tactical" style match last summer. I learned a lot, met some good people, and had a great time. I hope the match continues this summer. ELN

    Watches?

    I recommend the Casio solar/atomic Pathfinder. It's an accurate, durable, versatile watch. I wish it had DA but, that's probably expecting too much. ELN

    Scope levels. Any suggestions?

    Re: Scope levels. Any suggestions? Mike - Thanks for the reply. When time allows, I use an Accuracy 1st scope level with the ceramic ball. I'm trying to eliminate as many sources of error as possible. Crappy wind calls like mine are a big enough problem on their own without adding scope...

    What's your experience with ultrasonic cleaners?

    Re: What's your experience with ultrasonic cleaners? Gentlemen - Thanks very much for the information in this thread. I found a Hornady unit on sale yesterday for $82 at a local store. As for Gene Poole's recipe, I couldn't find any "Filter-Mate" locally. The closest I could come was...

    Berger 6mm 105 Grain Bullet Selection

    Gentlemen: I have been shooting Hornady AMAX 6mm 105 grain bullets in my Krieger 1/8 twist barrel. With 41.5 grains of H4350, I am seeing 3108 FPS and nice groups. Per Litz, the 105 AMAX G7 BC = .252. Lately I have been considering moving to a 105 grain bullet with a higher G7 BC. The two...

    Crossfit, Day 1

    Re: Crossfit, Day 1 Congratulations! I've been drinking the CF KoolAid for about 14 months. Some tips: 1) Show up reliably as/when your coach suggests; 2) Concentrate on form; 3) Take some fish oil supplements to help with inflammation; 4) "Dry Fit" type tops and zero-drop shoes are...

    Eberlestock LoDrag

    Re: Eberlestock LoDrag Casey - The LoDrag has ample room for all gear needed to shoot a match or a day hunt. I have added some MOLLE pouches on the waist belt for range finder, Kestrel, binos, etc. The frame "floats" inside the main bag - a minor issue. I believe you'll be pleased with the...

    Loading Bench Lighting

    Re: Loading Bench Lighting "I would be tempted to go with a couple of 2 tube 4 ft fixtures. Get the ones with the T-8 bulbs and electronic ballasts. Two separate 2 tube fixtures lets you separate them and broaden your lighted space, from what you're getting from the existing 8 footers you've...

    First Long Range Civilian Marksmanship Comp?

    Re: First Long Range Civilian Marksmanship Comp? Sir - I'm still new to precision rifle and shot my first matches this summer. My suggestion: Just shoot it! I've shot a few local 600 yard matches and one "tactical" match in Douglas, WY. I learned something(s) from each of them. I'd first...

    Loading Bench Lighting

    Gentlemen: The 8 foot fluorescent lights above my loading bench are failing. Any suggestions for a replacement? The present fixture is a 2 bulb 8 foot flourescent. It is mounted to a ceiling truss directly above the bench in my garage. Although it throws decent light, it's also slow to warm...
