Well this went sideways. I thought we were having a friendly discussion. lol

There's a large delta between looking for a broad swath of opinions prior to making my own informed decision based on my own requirements, and looking to be told what to do. I appreciate those who have provided theirs. 🤷‍♂️

If you want a carbon barrel for gee wiz factor, fine, but go with a good carbon like proof or bartlien. Yes there are cheaper options, but id hedge my bet and get a great name in carbon banks if you need to go that way.

It is your money and rifle, so your call, but everyone here has built a rifle like yours(range gun) and no one ever said "I wish this magnum was lighter." Now if you wanted a dedicated rig for elk hunting and walking in, sure carbon all the things. With no real defined goal other then to build and enjoy shooting, a heavier all steel barrel will be better in all regards. The cheapest carbon blank is still a 100 or 2 more than a great steel barrel(bart, kreiger, crb). Good luck with your build.

1st group after bore sight/zeroing scope

That's not a horrible group if that was at 100 yards. First thing I would suggest is using better ammo. Second thing is make yourself a could sandbags if you don't want to spend the money on some. You can use old blue jean legs or socks to fill. You can use dry dirt instead of sand.

Hopefully what you learned when sighting in this rifle will make it go smoother next time.

I to am new to reloading rifle ammo but to assume that everyone that has more experience then you is a Monkey is pretty silly. Its probably because the book max is way low compared to real world application. Your also posting on the only form that I've ever been on with a huge wealth of good knowledge and very little BS. The assumption that you would loose precision shows your lack of understanding. Accuracy nodes vary with velocity and pushing velocity is a good thing if accuracy and ES are where they need to be. It will allow you to have better accuracy at distance, with less effect on the bullet from environmental conditions.

10 second showdown

gigamortis
I shoot a lot of IDPA and USPSA, and I have never been a fan of downloaded starts.

Less than full capacity on board from holstered is not going to be a likely real world scenario. Making a habit of shooting only two rounds to start with and then reloading right off the bat is going to stick with some people if a stressful situation arises.

If a mandatory reload is going to be part of a drill, at least do it after at least the 8th or 10th round.

Prayer Request Thread

HPIguy
Please pray for us. We had to find a new home for our puppy. He minds me pretty good, but at our store she says she cannot get him to mind. One one hand, I love my wife, and she's one of the hardest working people I know. On the other hand, I don't understand how you can run a business, but not get a 14lb dog to mind you. I'm a weird mess of a mix of incredibly sad and pissed off. And I feel like I shouldn't be mad about this. It's the right thing to do for the dog. But I can't help it, I feel like she just gave up on him and isn't willing to make him mind.

I'm gonna miss the little guy big time. He's curled up right next to me on the couch as I type this. I've had to give away every dog I've ever had due to moving when I was a kid. I figured once we bought our place, I could have a dog. But, that's not the case.

He is going to a great home, a friend from work with lots of property, kids and another dog to play with. So we will have a great life, just without us.

No more animals for me. Too heartbreaking saying goodbye, one way or the other you will always have to do that. And I just can't do it anymore.
