    Precision Rifle Gear Eye protection that doesn't scratch

    If you want lenses that won't scratch you will have to be particularly careful of your plastic lensed shooting glasses or get glass lensed glasses. Even the glass lenses will scratch. A pair of vintage B&L Rayban large frame shooting glasses are going to be expensive and don't have the impact...

    Maggie’s Weed Eater Recommendation

    I've had one of these for a couple of seasons. It replaced a similar two cycle Stihl that I used for twenty plus years. We live on forty plus acres in the PNW and everything grows at a prodigious rate. The 131 will support various saw, mulching, and hacking blades that add a tremendous amount...

    Montana X-Treme Rimfire Solvent?

    @flyfisher117 Thanks for your reply. I've got a few .22s that are pretty accurate. I've used a .22 cal. nylon brush and pistol rod to do carbon in the chambers and then a 17cal. Dewey with nylon brush to do the barrels. Sometimes I use a small patch wrapped around the brush and sometimes I...

    KRG Bravo Pic Thread

    @wade2big. Thank you for your impressions. I've never bought or ordered a custom. I considered the TRG to be fugly. Think inverted fish belly. I buy factory and alter to my needs. When I got behind the TRG it was as if it had been fitted by Purdey's. Still fugly but who cares. I imagine...

    KRG Bravo Pic Thread

    A question for all the Bravo owners. If some of you are familiar with the TRGs, how close does the Bravo approximate the feel of a TRG? Specifically, the trigger reach, grip feel and curvature of the cheek.

    Pick My Camo!

    I'm on with Tigers. Get some, then wear them and wash them until they have faded. Send the result to your painter.

    Lets talk about THESE !

    @Rimdenter This is one of @rth1800 52 sporters. If you look at the other pics of his 52s it is evident that this one is a complete custom and absolutely stunning. If the rifle was built by one 'smith the guy's skills are over the top. The reason I posted it is the treatment of the...

    Tikka T1X

    I know some have installed the Yodave trigger spring. What is the lowest weight you have been able to achieve while maintaining absolute reliability.

    Installing yodave trigger spring on Tikka

    I need some help here. This regards the install of a Yodave trigger spring. The T1X is from early 2019. After cleaning it up originally, I shot it and felt the trigger was in the 2# range which was satisfactory. Sometime later I decided to lighten it without removing the stock. Using the...

    Benchrest 101

    @grauhanen, thank you for the info. on the NRA 1413 as I now call it. I wasn't looking for Anschutz at the time but rather another 52C reintro. The 54 jumped up in an auction search and the ad read in an interesting manner. I sent a message to the guy. He said he was probably under...

    Benchrest 101

    Guys, thanks for the responses. The reasons for my wanting to learn the use of the BR tools and techniques has nothing to do with an expectation of competing in any particular venue or sanctioned pursuit. I simply want to understand the technique so that I can better evaluate what I already...

    Benchrest 101

    The title pretty much says it all. Bonehead freshman Benchrest for a no-nothing student. For example how to set up your rest on the bench? It would seem that it would be best to have the rest dead square to the target board if using a rear bag and a mechanical rest. Or is close good enough...

    New help choosing sporter/match rifle

    T1X with a 16" barrel at 6#s even. Will they let you shoot with a variable with the power set at 6X and taped? A 20" is 6.4#s which wouldn't leave much room to 7.5#s. A new barrel would solve any weight problems if allowed. Let us know what you choose and how it works out?

    So if I had a bunch of absolutely smokingly priced 1/2" AR500 targets......

    All the squares and a 50% IPSC. By hybrid can I assume two mount holes?

    Tikka/Bergara/CZ?

    I hope you decide to shoot a 6X5 with your current 1416. A YODAVE $10.00 spring will reportedly get a T1X to 12oz.s. I think where Anschutz is missing out is their mags. Inserting a mag. is just like a Win. Mdl. 52. It's a hunt and peck excercise. The T1X mag. design makes locating the mag...

    Tikka/Bergara/CZ?

    T1X is threaded for suppressor and weighs six pounds with 16" barrel and 6.4# with 20" barrel. Overall length with 16" is 33.7". It's pretty light and pretty handy and plenty accurate. How accurate do you want it to be? If you are good with under .5" at 50 yds. its good to go. If you want...
