    Is it worth doing an AI with the .223?

    Ackley or ackleyish is almost standard for my rifles, but not my .223. Had Beanland Custom Rifles (Jon is great) built one last year. You just don't get enough benefit to me to justify the little but extra effort. A .223 case modified or not is only going to do so much. I shot 80.5 Bergers and...

    American Rifle Company Special 4th of July Offer

    Got mine the other day. I must say, I'm not a chassis guy, but damn. The chassis on this thing is in a class of its own. If the mag support design really does allow for the mag to serve as a barrier stop, this will be amazing. This is some kinda of system. Very happy so far. Going to order the...

    Inability to shoot well with magnums

    How about posting a video of you shooting prone on YouTube. Post link on here and let’s see what’s going one. Never seen or meet a shooter that could not improve on form. Even the greats video their practice sessions and review their performance. Precision shooting is a long journey that...

    Spotting scope tripod advice

    I use Tactical Tripods for long observation sessions in the prone or setting (ground or chair). Traditional cheap tripod for standing. I like the modularity, handling, and portability of the system. Dave is a hoot to talk to. His system is not optimal for standing. $40 pawn shop tripod for...

    Rifle Scopes Anyone still run a mk4 scope?

    Yep have a few still in service. More of a sentimental thing than anything else. Would not buy one at current prices. Too many better options out there at that price. They still get hits, track true, and remind me of another time.

    Range Report Help me pick a 6mm. BR, BRA, GT, XC

    I agree Lapua is King, I use it in everything applicable. I don’t feel Peterson is lacking in this application.

    Range Report Help me pick a 6mm. BR, BRA, GT, XC

    Been debating this for 2 years. Broke this morning and ordered 04 barrels to be chambered in 6XC. It just checks all the boxes for me better than the others. Not saying it’s better, just better for me. I think the real difference between all the calibers is more preference than preformance...

    American Rifle Company Special 4th of July Offer

    Well damn it. Guess I own a damn 6.5 wonder pill rifle again. At that price I had to get it. Maybe it will keep people off my rifles. Feel like I’m cheating on my Origin based rifles. Counseling available? Props to ARC. Smart way to reduce inventory, expose the new chassis, and spread good...

    PM answers. Asked if it was a Takedown model. No, it shoots were you aim it. Asked if I would guarantee a precision level. With me shooting yes, with you shootings no. Asked if it would make all his friends envious. Yes and your pants will get tighter in an area while theirs shrinks...

    Extra Extra read all about it. Applicant to the Vudoo Owners Group (VOG) was denied. Seems the applicant was pretending to have a spine. Nope, wife had his balls in a jar and displayed them for the application committee . She cited his “wannabe” personality issues and Beta male status. She on...

    New to centerfire. ELD 223 Remington 700 advice

    Ok it was my miss understanding. Your were saying he would want a better barrel, not that he would shoot the barrel out soon. Agreed, once the fundamentals of marksmanship are down and reloading methods refined that barrel will cause a few head scratches.

    New to centerfire. ELD 223 Remington 700 advice

    So at what round count are you going through .223 bolt gun barrels? Whats your load that’s eating them up? Or am I miss understanding your post. 1,700 rounds into my new Beanland built .223 and I haven’t had to adjust load yet. Yes the throat has moved but not enough to change my dope.

    Rifle Scopes Help me pick one (maybe two?) scopes, or convince me to stay with what I have.

    $4,000 in training and bullets will out preform any scope you upgrade to. Rifles Only PR1-2, all in with lodging $2,000ish $2,000 in reloaded match grade ammo (if you already reload) 4,000 loaded rounds Federal Gold Metal Match 500 rounds $450ish, equals a bit over 2,000 rounds Just my thoughts...

    I may have shot the eye out of a flying bird today. I may have penetrated AR500 1/2 steel with Eley Tenex. I may have easily won the finals in NRL, with my Clark’s in the centerfire division. I may have even shot one of the .001 groups from the “wear house stories”. Yep could have done all that...
