2A ALERT: TENNESSEE. Antigun nonprofits hoping to push stricter gun laws for upcoming TN legislative session. BUCKEYES GET IT DONE with new pro2A laws

Another attack directed at the capital of Americana and the shooting sports culture.

The Tennessee legislative session starts next Tuesday on 01/14/2025 and several non-profit orgs, including the antigun group "Voices for a Safer Tennessee" are hoping to push their "concerns" to legislators to pass new antigun bills.

Contact your local and state reps, the GOA, FPC, etc. Spread this online far and wide.

I have absolutely no, ZERO interest in reaching any "common ground" with leftists and their invasive pest ideology, nor even spending any effort to listen to what they have to squawk out of their yappers. Leftist policies have done nothing but render populations of hardworking people disarmed in their jurisdictions, livelihoods and businesses ruined, homes and businesses burned, and economies circling the drain. There is only ONE message that needs to be sent to those who want to further desecrate home and hearth. And that is:

Chronograph SD questions

I am still somewhat new to long range but expanding my knowledge and experience as much as I can. I just picked up a Garmin Xero chronograph with the intention of getting into reloading relatively soon. It’s an amazing unit and super easy to use, but I have a couple questions. What is the appropriate number of shots to measure for an average? What are considered good or bad SD and spread numbers?

I have measured a lot of groups across multiple rifles. Most of the Hornady and Norma factory ammo has come in with SD’s from 13-20. I recently measured 12 shots of 7PRC ammo from Choice Ammunition(Berger 168 VLDH). I was surprised to see SD at 45 with spread of 81. I then measured Hornady 175 ELDX Precision Hunter for 7 shots and got a 13.4 SD with 45 spread. The Choice groups well at 100 yards but I haven’t taken it past 400 yards yet.

What should I typically look for and consider good for factory ammo?

What is the right number of shots to base my averages off?

I appreciate any wisdom, best practices or advice that you can share. Thank you.

MDT Bipod - NRL22, is juice worth squeeze?

I finally bit the bullet for the MDT double pull, I've been using it for about a week through a few different rifles.

For NRL 22 specifically, I don't see any reason to drop the coin on this thing. PRS, NRL hunter, field shooting whatever I get it. Does anyone who shoots NRL22 really prefer this over an atlas?

The versatility of it is great. But it's not $400 great and I've yet to see an NRL stage, or PRS for that matter that calls for it.

6mm Creedmoor neck bushing size

I'm replacing a 6.5 Creedmoor barrel with a 6mm Creedmoor barrel. I understand you can use the same 6.5mm sizing die. I use a Redding bushing die now. Planning to use Lapua 6mm Ceedmoor brass. What size neck bushings are you using with Lapua brass? I did just pick up a bunch of once fired brass and it measures .016 neck thickness.
. I will also be using a LE Wilson .242 mandrel as a final step.
