    EP 175 ammo name?

    I wrote a note down form EP 175 that Frank mentioned some 140 grain factory ammo that was doing 2850 out of a 22 inch rifle. Did I hear that right... and if so what brand was that? Cheers!

    Gunsmithing Odd problem with a new rifle...

    When using either an MDT or Magpul AICS mag (only mags I have) I notice that I have issue closing the bolt. This is more prevalent when the mags are fully loaded. The rounds chamber and the bolt is fully forward but hangs up (very stiff) so I have to use extra force to close the bolt... this...

    Episode 118 scope setup

    About to set up a new scope and there was a good overview of the set up. My question is about scope height. I have only set up one and I got it as close to the barrel as possible with clearance for the scope caps. I recall that at least one podcast talked about getting as low as possible was not...

    EP #95 support hand question

    Over the weekend I caught up with EP #95 and I recall some information on the thumb of the support hand being used to apply pressure on the butt of the rifle to help mitigate fishtailing. There was also something about the index finger that I did not quite get. Hopefully someone here can...

    Giraud Case Trimmer question

    HI All, For those who currently use or have used the Giraud trimmer and size using a body die and bushing neck die found that the case sticks in the trimmer? I was told this was a possibility since the bushing does not size all the way to the shoulder where the trimmer index's from. Currently...

    Wind Lesson

    Frank just had the chance to watch your video on the wind lesson which open my eyes to the basic zones you mentioned and how critical learning to read the wind is at range. I ran across this article Where does wind matter? inspired by watching your video to learn more. I wanted to share it...

    Case trimmer question

    I recently bought a Sinclair Ultimate Case trimmer and was getting ready to set it up and then happen to watch a video on the Giraud and thought wow that makes trimmer fast when compared to the Sinclair. I am thinking if I am trimming more than 50 cases the manual method might become to much of...

    Neck sizing question

    Just starting out and have the Redding Competition Die set. In setting up the neck sizing die per the instructions it does the full neck although I have read some folks find doing less has been better for their rifle. Should I just start out and do the full neck and only adjust if needed...

    Neck tension .001 to .003 questions

    I recently bought some Redding dies to start reloading for a new rifle. I decided on buying a bushing according to the Redding website which suggested .001 smaller from a loaded round. I have not starting yet but recently read that .001 neck tension might not be enough if the bolt is run hard...

    Range Report New MagnetoSpeed v3 SD question

    Hi all, Just getting started with bolt guns and decided to pick up a v3 and test the factory rounds I zeroed the rifle with. I plan on reloading for this rifle and wanted to have a target starting point for load development. My question is it typical to see the SD drop as the barrel warms up...

    Pain in the neck!

    Hi All, I can’t seem to get comfortable behind my rifle in the prone and need some help. The problem I think might be with my position but I am not actually sure. The problem presents itself fairly quickly in that I get a pain in my neck on my right side from the base of my skull running down...

    From behind enemy lines...

    Hi All, Decided to join after listening to the Everyday Sniper POD casts... addicting. Decided to test the bolt gun waters with a short .308 I put together recently. I have to say it was fun buying parts and putting it together and taking her out to zero and shoot some steel. Tons to learn...
