    The Fix from Q

    Got out to test the promising reloder 17 loads today. Both the 143 and 147's shot great, especially considering the cobble of old 2x6's and cinder blocks we were using as a bench. The bolt is still sticky, moreso with the 143's. I'm hoping that will improve with time and more rounds. Still...

    The Fix from Q

    Here's the side shot, ignore the ugly cabinets. You can see there's a decent gap, if I pull the 1.18 35mm spuhr I have that will not be a problem. Decisions decisions

    The Fix from Q

    Its a great optic. I haven't been able to test tracking yet, but the CCH reticle, the glass, and the turrets are really nice. I think Leupold really took the feedback they got on the Mark 6 and fixed some issues. I'll let you know more when I go to the range Friday.

    The Fix from Q

    Yes, sorry I thought I had some on my phone but I will take a few when I get home. The mount is less than ideal, its a little high at 1.5" and the captive bolts are on the ejection side. Supposedly Leupold has some coming in the Mark 6 line, but I think my Spuhr might migrate off my Pierce...

    The Fix from Q

    Well I got the scope mounted and made it out to shoot a couple ladder loads. I went with the Mark 5hd 3.6-18x44 that I think fits this gun well. Shooting the Fix from the bench with Mac loads definitely reminds you how narrow the butt pad is, but it's not unbearable. The trigger is incredible...

    The Fix from Q

    Got an email this afternoon saying the 22in 6.5 was in stock, and it is currently on the way to my FFL. I'm in the same boat on the taper adapter. I guess for now the fix will be full volume, I hope the adapters aren't out of stock for too long. Cant wait to put this thing through its paces. I...

    2nd Annual Michigan Precision Rifle Challenge 2 slots left.

    The Shilen trigger came with no safety and pierce was nice enough to send me with one they had on hand but I believe the one they gave me is the pre 2006 style because nothing lines up on the Shilen. From my novice guess I need a post 2006 complete safety system with the lever and pins. I was...

    I don't think I deserved the gun(The backpack Mike won would have still been too much) but words cannot describe how thankful I am that Mike did that. I don't know how many of you knew, this but Saturday was my first day of work for Oakland Tactical which makes what he did even more incredible...
