    RRS BH-40

    RRS BH-40

    I have an opportunity to buy a lightly used RRS Versa tripod and a BH-40 ball head for precision distance shooting out to 1000M. I note that the BH-40 is rated for 18 pounds. This is not the SOAR version. This gear is coming from the photography space. My rifle fully kitted out in an MDT...

    Bolt Action Valkyrie

    I’m awaiting my 224V ba with a McMillan A5 stock and Defiance action next month. Could anyone share reloading data? I’ve seen the Speer info but I prefer Hornady and Berger bullets. Thanks in advance.

    Coldbore

    Update. Using a little field ingenuity I’ve found and purchased a Nokia Lumia 635 (I believe this is the same one that Lowlight uses for CB) off of the US version of Amazon and remarkably they’re prepared to ship it to the Great Frozen Socialist North. So I’m all set. I’ve also downloaded the...

    Coldbore

    Fantastic information Oz and Diver. Thank you both so much for your detailed and informative responses. This is why I am so impressed with SH. Tapping into the wisdom of others is invaluable. So thank you again. I am envious of your ability to get a cheap Nokia Lumia or similar. Up here in...

    My Solutions to setting up your Ballistic Computer

    First, thanks Frank for all that you do to advance the science and sport of precision shooting. I am eating up all episodes of The Everyday Sniper, playing some of them over 2-3 times to capture all of the wisdom. In the result, I yesterday purchased the desktop version of CB. I'm reading the...
