    F T/R Competition 3x600 F-class at AIM, Blakely Georgia

    Re: 3x600 F-class at AIM, Blakely Georgia Trent, did they have a December match? If there was, what the turnout? I'm wondering how many people even know what the calendar is since there is no link on AIM's site directing people to the link you gave.

    Custom Sizing Dies

    I have some questions. I know you send the people who make these a few pieces of fired brass from the chamber you have right now. I have a few questions. Aren't these dies only custom to the chamber you sent fired cases from and not custom for your next re barrel? How much variation exists...

If 10 competitors in the same class compete, 2nd place receives a cash award. They don't pay awards for the overall winner. One could win the...

    F T/R Competition Mastin 1411 Prone Stock F-T/R

    Re: Mastin 1411 Prone Stock F-T/R What is the rationale? I know they are all but infinitely adjustable and that alone may be rationale enough. I just don't know. I know the B1 Eliseo weighs in right at 5 lbs. Aesthetics aren't everything, but it is a factor. I appreciate your input.

I know what all the components of the rifle will weigh minus the stock - 12.3 lbs. Does anyone use this style of stock for F-T/R and...
