    accuracy with no bottom metal

    Re: accuracy with no bottom metal Just think, it might shoot great without the mag cover, and shoot like crap with it.

    What causes horizontal groups?

    Re: What causes horizontal groups? I'm shooting off the bench with no heart beat to time. The stock is bedded and screws are tight. I ordered a new stock B+C, I'm pretty sure this will limit some whip. The Remington stock doesn't have pillars and even after bedding is flexable. Maybe this is...

    What causes horizontal groups?

    Re: What causes horizontal groups? So I tried another test, I tried one of those rubber vibration dampeners on the barrel. Was curious if barrel, stock, or me was the weak link so I tried the dampener to find out how much whip there is in a 700 sps barrel. Here's what happened, I can't tell...

    What causes horizontal groups?

    Re: What causes horizontal groups? Working with the OAL of the cartridge didn't affect group shape. I didn't mention before that the rifle has a jewel trigger set at 1 1/4 lbs, and the factory stock is bedded with the forearm filled with bedding compound and the channel opened up to free...

    Range Report Super-stabilizing to avoid transonic upset?

    Re: Super-stabilizing to avoid transonic upset? If somebody figured out how to defeat transonic upset they must be keeping it a secret. All the best small bore ammo (22 rimfire) is subsonic and those guys would love a few more fps.

    What causes horizontal groups?

    I have a Remington 700 sps in 308 and it tends to group horizontal. I know the wind will do it but what about something static. Can the cheap factory stock flex horizontal? You change loads with different velocity and you get groups 7/8" wide and 1/4" vertical. Do you think barrel material could...

    Mauser Action Build

    Re: Mauser Action Build I built a 338 win mag out of a vz 24. The magazine length had to be stretched and the bolt face had to be turned. IMHO the 90 degree bolt lock is the deal braker for me to use a large ring mauser for competition. It's slower and the bolt handle has to be just right for...

    Re: Burris scopes My understanding is that Burris scopes are made in Colorado (high end) and over seas (low end). The older ones are made in the USA.
