    Are Tikka barrels "slow"?

    Accuracy is terrific. So my question has more to do with general knowledge and a minor impact on fudge factor during matches. Not a big deal at all.

    Are Tikka barrels "slow"?

    I picked up a Tikka T3X TAC A1 a couple months ago. 24" 6.5CM. All of the published data says my nearly max load of 42.2gr RL-17 / 140gr ELD-M says I should be getting about 2800fps. The magnetospeed is telling me 2665fps consistently over several batches and various environmental conditions. I...

    Sig Sauer - KILO3000 BDX LASER RANGEFINDING BINOCULARS

    I used my Kilo3000 and Kestrel setup for the first time yesterday...spot on ranging, mil adjustment calcs and 1 shot hits on 5" plates out to 500 yards. I was really impressed with how quickly the ranging and dope adjustments were presented. Very happy with the purchase.

    Sig Sauer - KILO3000 BDX LASER RANGEFINDING BINOCULARS

    Just unboxed mine and have been playing with them for an hour or so. How do I get the binos to display the MIL adjustment? Is that not included in the HUD? nevermind: figured it out

    to buy a wind meter or not

    I used a WeatherFlow with Strelok for about a year before "upgrading" recently to a Kestrel 5700. Speaking purely about the quality of the atmospheric readings, I see no difference between the WeatherFlow and a Kestrel. In other words, if the Kestrel is reading 3500ft DA and a 6mph wind, the...

    9mm AR Conversion

    I have an SBR w/4.5” barrel and 6” Form 1 suppressor. It is just a full time giggle machine! I have used Hahn and PSA mag well inserts for Colt pattern magazines. Both work equally well. I’ve used both the ones that are semi-permanent, requiring the bolt catch to be re-installed, and the ones...

    Does it run natively on your Mac? Or are you using parallels/VM Ware?

    AB Desktop vs Kestrel only

    My computer is a Mac. As such, running AB's desktop application is a bit of a pain. I'm planning to retire my iPad and replace it shortly, so I was thinking of switching over to a Windows 10 compatible tablet in part so I could run the AB software. Do you get much benefit from having the...

    XTR II 1.5-8 w Aero mount

    This particular unit has been on my AR10 since last fall. It's made 3 or 4 range trips and a weekend pig hunt. The dual-focal plane (FFP MILRAD reticle for distance, SFP horseshoe for CQB) reticle is very effective. Burris calls this the "Ballistic CQ Mil" reticle. This scope rocks. It's...

    Kestrel use during a match - Enter specific ranges or go with a general range card?

    Thanks. The first match I'll be using this Kestrel at does not publish ranges ahead of time. Some of the stages we'll have prep time for and others will be 'blind' with ranging done on the clock. I think I'll keep it simple and just go with pre-printed data in a wrist coach.
