    .338 Lapua load query

    Thanks for the reply The plan is to shoot out beyond 2000 . I guess if I’m honest I wasn’t expecting such high velocities with no signs of pressure. Most reloading data seems to be for 27” barrels which isn’t much help . Gluv

    Modifying My Charlie Tarac

    Tacoma have released their adjustable model, I think it costs about £800 more than the original .I thought I would give this a go . We machined the 25 and 50 mil lines in tonight, I'm quite pleased, even without painting the lines in for contrast I still managed to get the adjustment repeatable...

    Modifying My Charlie Tarac

    I use the the retical in the scope to do the measuring. Look through the scope with your turrets set on my zero ,note the measurement down , dial in 25 mil , note the measurement down off surveying staff. Once you have the 25 mil measurement, return turrets back to zero. All I do then is attach...

    Modifying My Charlie Tarac

    I have decided to do a very simple modification to my Charlie to allow on the fly adjustments ,in my case upto 125 mil ,but you can set it to anything really. I have made a fill in piece as seen in the picture which will be engraved with five lines for the different elevations. No more faffing...

    Yes no problem., It's only a case of making a teardrop shaped insert to fit in the adjustment plate where screws 1,2,3 are located. All I have to do then is set to 25 mils and engrave a straight line , set to 50 etc and engrave If it works on verniers im sure it will be more than accurate enough...

    After having had a good look at my CT I've come to the conclusion that it should be an easy modification to allow redilable adjustment for 25-50-75-100 mils of adjustment without anything other than a torx and Allen key.? Wait out Gluv??

    I might have a look at mine and see if I can replace the adjustment screw with a micrometer barrel, it should be easily dialable then Gluv

    Rifle Scopes Charlie Tarac Users

    Hi guys, I'm currently thinking of buying myself a CT and was wondering how easy it is to adjust in the field in real terms? If I wanted to jump from say 30 - 50 mils can I just slacken off the three screws and adjust getting myself pretty close enough to work with? Or is it a case of I really...
