    Residue in barrel promote corrosion when damp?

    I know that modern powders are not like black powder, in that they don't aggressively promote corrosion if residue is left in the barrel after firing. But . . . If you were to fire 30 to 70 rounds through a barrel at a rnage session, store it uncleaned,and the weather got damp, would the...

    If you have a compact digital camera, is it possible to take a photo through a scope? If so, what is the correct technique? (e.g. distance from eyepiece, how handle focus, autoexposure, etc). Jim G

    Atlas monopod - Yes!

    Re: Atlas monopod - Yes! I agree that there needs to be some guidance on how to proeprly use a monopod. I haven't found much anywhere, and during my first outing with it, "learned by experience". What keeps coming to mind is how well it takes out the last of the muscle stress that was needed...

    Best Load is sometimes not the most powerful

    The “best” load for a rifle is assumed by many shooters to be the one that contains enough powder to maximize velocity without getting signs of excessive pressure. However, I don’t necessarily agree with that. Sometimes a shooter does need the most velocity he or she can get, for example for...

    Atlas monopod - Yes!

    If you haven't tried firing a group of shots with an Atlas Monopod-equipped rifle, do so at first opportunity. I bought the monopd and attached it to my TRG 338 Lapua, and could not believe how much easier and faster it made it for me to fire really precise shots and groups of shots. Tremendous...

    Powder

    Re: Powder Lapua brass is worth the money easily - IF you control other elements of the loading to make it worthwhile. It is foolish to use great cases if everything else is low precision and done quickly without careful setup. So the answer to your question on Lapua brass is: Yes, it is...

    Poor velocity spread in reloads for AR-10

    Re: Poor velocity spread in reloads for AR-10 You just for the first time said "Dillon". Are you loading these rounds on a Dillon progressive press? If so, have you checked to ensure that ALL your primers are seated fully? A Dillon progressive depends upon a very consistent hand motion on...

    Rifle Scopes Best available 1/2" pic rail riser?

    Re: Best available 1/2" pic rail riser? I know you said you are not looking for a QD solution, but the Larue QD riser I have been suing to swap my Nightforce between my LMT MWSE and my TRG has always, every time, returned each rifle to exact POI as it was at before removing the scope. Larue...

    LMT .308 MWS

    Re: LMT .308 MWS Yes, the LaRue QD mounts really DO hold zero. I have been using one for weeks now, swapping between my LMT and my TRG. Perfect return to zero every time. Jim G

    Case holder for wilson trimmer

    Re: Case holder for wilson trimmer I have 3 case holders for my Wilson trimmer. My Mitutoyo digital caliper says their outside diameter is pretty closely controlled, but not perfect, as the 3 measue out as: .9975" .9970" .9965" This suggests to me that the target OD is .9970" +/- .0005 or...

    help with groups on my ar10

    Re: help with groups on my ar10 You COULD have insufficient neck tension. If so, the recoil from a shot being fired can set back the bullets on the rounds that are still in the magazine. In addition, the feeding of rounds from the magazine into the chamber can further set bad the bullets as...
