Ball powders are an issue with that thrower, benchmark is a different animal. If you have a conventional thrower, that's what I'd try with Lever, you might be surprised at how tight the velocity holds.

Real close! I may or may not be the kind of dork who figured a lite contour barrel at 1.3 oz/in to make my spreadsheet more accurate.

I have one of your Ospreys in a 22BR, #3 at 20". Chambered by my smith, love it. Weigh's 46 oz. If a lighter contour w/ flare to allow for 5/8ths threads were available, I would have bought that instead. I think a Tikka lite contour at the same length would come in more like 35 oz, for...

No plans at the moment, and I don't know of any currently for sale.

I'll take it, pm enroute.

Hoping to make Lewistown, would love to do the Ironman but the schedule won’t allow for it. Pretty cool idea.

FWIW there's a curve in 4DOF. I've always had good luck with 4DOF, but ymmv. Running a few bullets at the same conditions (5000 ft, 59f, 50% rh, 2800 fps, 7.5 twist, no wind, angle, etc) I got the following elevation corrections at 1200 yds: Berger 105 Hyb: 11.14 Berger 109 Hyb: 10.50...

I will be, saw that you and Corey will be too. I have only shot once since May, I'm itchy!

The Cody night match is well done. Rippey addressed it well. Vs a standard PRS style match you'll want a red or green headlamp, mini glow sticks, and make sure you're lit reticle has a fresh battery. Cross your fingers the wind isn't crazy as sometimes the backdrop isn't illuminated.

Are you shooting a system that you should expect 1 moa performance from? There’s a lot of variables here between the trigger puller, rifle, ammo, and optic.

It will, if it is set to AB Ultralight mode. If it's set to ABX, then it needs to talk to the Kestrel. I wanted the additional range the ABX would give me as I knew we were expecting some 900+ yd targets. And...it still takes a couple seconds to scroll to the screen with the elevation...

I'll take it, assuming availability.

I have a pair of 6k 10x42's, just did a NRL hunter match with them, which was what I got them for. They have better glass than the 3k's or 10k's I've looked through, with no noticeable tint. Not alpha glass either, for sure. They easily connect with my Kestrel. If the Kestrel times out and...

I took a large mule deer and a cow elk, a friend took two antelope, all from my Dasher. ~100 yds to 532 yds. Has worked well, nothing has gotten away, would use again.
