    How many shooters do actually use wind meters regularly?

    What Lowlight said!!! I have use the 4500NV for some years now, and it is always in use for getting wind readings. I am trying to get better at reading it myself, but always verify with meter.

    Gun Range help

    Our local indoor range changed out their traps this summer. The new "traps" are just a slanted wall with some sort of dense rubber chips. It completely changed the way we can use the range bcuz there are no leading edges to worry about when they set up "fun-runs". The material is also able to...

    Barrett MRAD 338 and 300 WIN

    I almost never see it mentioned, but if you can find some, try RL-25 for your 338LM loads. I get 2951fps with 91gr under 300gr SMK's. Mine is a 98B with 30" Kreiger tube.

    Lapua Senar'S

    I use the 155's for F-Class and have tried them from .002 off the lands to as much as .015 and they preform about the same regardless of jump distance. You have to do your own testing for your rifle tho.

    Redding bushing dies and .308

    You'll just have to get some bushings and find which one your rifle likes. I tried 332 - 335 and settled on the 333 (with no expander ball).

    Meplat trimming required before bullet pointing??

    What SWRichmond said! The really important thing is the base to ogive measurement. You should sort them in groups of .001".

    Chrono recommendations

    I had a V1 for a few years and loved it. Have since gotten a V3 and it is even more awesome!!! I have shot hundreds of loads over it and have had no issues. I also find that the data it gives will be very close at ranges out to 2K yards.

    Rifle Scopes BEAST Zero-Stop Fix

    I think it is more about them wanting to see what failed. I understand that, but for such a simple fix I didn't want to take the scope off and send it back.

    Rifle Scopes BEAST Zero-Stop Fix

    The screw that locks the Zero-Stop on my BEAST scope stripped. I called NF and was told this is a "hand burnished" part and that I had to send the scope back for repair. However, taking a VERY close look at the problem, I discovered that the screw is only about 3/16" long and only engaged 3...

    Rifle Scopes Opinions on Nightforce ATACR

    I think they are a very good scope. I have 2 of them. You won't be disappointed!!! I would look at Barrett ExRings. The 15/40 MOA are probably what you are going to need if you plan to shoot ELR.

    Magnetospeed customer service...

    I have dealt with them a few times and they are excellent!!! I also find that the magnetospeed is extremely accurate. Used to get numbers and then shoot at long range and adjust MV based on scope setting. Not with magnetospeed, they seem to be right on!!!
