    Loading the bipod with no foot grip

    Not looking to get whipped but I'm not sure there's universal agreement on that. The video in post #4 above shows a respected instructor loading the bipod and describing his technique in those terms. Do you think he's doin' it wrong or are we just using different terminology to describe the...

    Loading the bipod with no foot grip

    I often shoot on a range that has loose, sandy soil. Using a harris bipod with standard rubber feet, I could not put any load on the bipod at all. Zero. I got these puppies and and they solved all my problems. Highly recommended...

    PRS Match - Is slinging up worth it?

    @Terry Cross, if possible can you please expand on your comments on LOP. What LOP do you consider excessive for an average size male and what factors do you think are driving longer LOP in PRS rifles? I'm experimenting with different LOPs at the moment and am keen to hear informed opinions on...

    which budget accurate 6.5

    I would go with a T3x Varmint and put it in a KRG chassis. The TAC A1 is A$3,400 in Australia. You can put the T3x Varmint in a Bravo and save A$1,000 or go with the Whiskey 3, save a little bit of money and end up with a rifle that is a least as good, many would say better. Two problems with...

    Rifle Scopes Tempted to spring for my first high dollar scope.......ATACR or PMii?

    Gotta feel for the OP. His dreams of getting LRQ'ed be Denys and dominating the F-Class comp at Bayou Rifles with his PoS Schmidt & Bender have been dashed.

    Rifle Scopes Lapping rings necessity or dumb in 2019

    Get this tool to check alignment of rings. Kokopelli SCOPE ALIGNMENT BARS I mount the rings to the rail and check alignment before I mount the rail to the gun. With good quality rings and rails, the alignment is usually perfect. If alignment is out after you install rail and rings on the gun...

    Does anyone know what these extra adjustments are that a qualified gunsmith can do? Sear engagement?

    Advanced Marksmanship Rifle Position in the Shoulder Pocket

    I couldn't agree with this more. I watched Phillip Velayo's video when he posted it and it is by far the most helpful shooting advice that I have ever received. It has totally changed the way I shoot. My take on his advice is that you should try to position the rifle butt on your body as high...

    Tikka trigger

    Thanks. I saw that post but was hoping to squeeze you for a little more info if possible. I have a Tikka trigger that adjusts down to 2.8ilbs with the factory spring and 2.1lbs with a Yodave spring. Did you just polish the contact surfaces between trigger and sear? What was your polishing...

    ADM Harris adapter tilt mod

    I think you can install the lever the other way around so you don't get that interference.

    Cant get spring pin out of my Harris Bipod

    Doing it with those little blocks and the supplied pin is a horror show. I have two harris bipods, one with talons and the other with podmods. I want to swap them over but couldn't face doing it with the supplied tools. I just ordered these on ebay...

    Tikka T3 Thread

    Maybe there are some differences between examples. Mine has a small amount of perceptible movement prior to break. It would be nice to have a sear engagement adjustment to minimize this. Mine also has lots of over travel. This doesn't bother some people but I would like the option of adjusting...

    Night Vision KRG Bravo NV rail

    @Massoud Does the Bravo inletted for the Tikka T1x use the "universal backbone"? Can the INVR be mounted on the T1x Bravo? Will future T1x inlets include the mounting holes for the "new style NV mount"? All the photos I've seen of T1x Bravos do not include these. I'm considering the Bravo for...

    Best Way to carry lunch during a "field style" match?

    That's the easy part dude. Cheese and crackers are harder. And the oysters! How do you keep your oysters chill at the match?
