Question about using LRF and Ballistic software

I am new to Precision shooting so take it easy.

I am thinking about acquiring a Sig Kilo 3K handheld LRF and a Samsung Table to install the Ballistic software of choice.

My question is: can the software get the weather data from the LRF?

I know most people just use their smart phone, but I don't wish to use a smart phone.

The Kilo 3K advertises that it has the data sensor to do real time calculations.

I understand that most people use a Kestral for getting their weather data, but I am not sure that I am at that point to spend that kind of money.

By starting with just a LRF and a tablet, it would get me started and if need I can get a Kestral later if needed.

Best practice for installing a barrel nut pre-fit on a SA Solus?

Hey Everyone. I just ordered a Solus Obsidian action on discount from Midway and Im waiting on an order from NSS for a Criterion small shank Savage 110 barrel nut pre-fit chambered in 308 Win (I also ordered a squared savage barrel nut/wrench from NSS along with headspace gauges).

Note I dont have a barrel vice and criterion doesn’t recommend using one when installing a barrel nut pre-fit. They recommend the NSS action vice. I normally would go that route but when I was ordering the barrel James at NSS had mentioned his standard NSS action wrench won’t fit the solus action due to integrated pic rail so I need to use the internal solace action wrench to secure the action when mounting the barrel/torquing the nut. This makes sense, but the question I’m left with is how do I actually incorporate the internal action wrench into the install process?

I ask b/c according to an Aero rep's post on reddit, if installing a barrel with a barrel nut, simply use the Solus Vice jaws, if installing a shouldered prefit, use the internal action wrench.

AD_4nXd6uxzPn3eq9f4vkUVVWJd7SAhekCzx83ysIOn5ZO0skrLRLGsG6JoLawLIcafJhTD6ge2XLiYrfBQ5cVhJ-xCPDA-oZabvMRR2OpzBsi13-LTniI2l4ujblFX1Cz-rru__XgaVwg



When searching online I found this savage prefit barrel install tutorial video by Criterion which is great but they are able to use the NSS action wrench since their install is for a savage action not a solus action with integrated pic rail. The steps they follow are different compared to a Solus action that can't use the NSS action wrench.

Here are the 2 options I'm considering (macro level steps):
  1. (Aero rep's method) Clamp the action in a vice (using the Solus Vice jaws), set headspace, torque the barrel nut to spec, check headspace again with go/no-go
  2. Or do I incorporate the internal action wrench so that the action doesn’t get deformed when torqueing the barrel nut even though the action is secured in the vice jaw inserts? For example:
    1. Clamp action in vice with Solus Vice jaws
    2. Set headspace, then hand tighten barrel nut, check headspace again with go/no-go
    3. Unclamp action from vice, clamp the squared end of the solace action wrench into vice then slide action onto the other side of wrench fully engaging with the lugs
    4. Torque the barrel nut to spec, check headspace again with go/no-go
Or am I way off and you suggest completely different steps to follow?

This is my first bolt action build so I'm used to following the steps for installing AR-15 barrels (that use M4 barrel extensions, barrel nuts, etc.) that definitely need the upper receiver internally secured (with something like the Midwest Industries Upper Receiver Rod clamped into a vice then slide upper receiver over the rod) before torqueing the barrel nut. In option 2 above I was essentially thinking of using the solace action wrench (after setting the headspace) very similar to how I use the Midwest Industries upper receiver rod when installing AR barrels.

Any help/feedback would be much appreciated, thanks!

Range Report G7 BC for .308 175 SMK?

Does anybody have a 'known good' G7 BC for the 175gr .308 SMK?

I get anywhere from .239 to .253 depending on which combination of software/data I use.

The closest "good" data I could find is a .240 G7 BC cited here on the Hide by Mr. Litz for the .308 178gr AMAX (published .495 G1 BC) -- so I'm guessing a good G7 number for the .308 175 SMK will be very close to that?
