    Maggie’s Pacific Tool and Gauge

    I have ordered many reamers from them. Always a quality product. Always what I ordered. Sometimes took longer than I hoped. Always treated professionally. I will continue to order from them.

    Rifle Scopes Has anyone had their Leupold Mk4 changed over to mil turrets?

    I've had my 8.5 x 25 mark 4 converted to m5 turrets this year. Mine is a SFP scope. Worked fine. Quick service. I bought the scope originally in 2004 or 2005. I'm happy with it. John

    Rifle Scopes Zero Stop adjustment on Bushnell XRS 4.5x30

    Is there and easy way to adjust the Zero Stop on a Bushnell XRS 4.5x30 once you have set the stop and only want to change it several 0.1's of a Mil? Windage is no problem but elevation is much more complicated than it should be when I follow the enclosed instructions. I'm guessing there is an...

    Sniper’s Hide Cup 2014 Sniper's Hide Cup Details Registration Open February 15th

    In watching the videos I didn't see shooters ranging the target before shooting. Is there a walk through that shooters are ranging prior to moving into position or am I missing something? John

    6mm guys... What have y'all had luck with?

    I've had good luck with the Berger hybrids, 105 lapua's and also the 115 DTACS. They all shoot well. The AMAX's didn't shoot well for me. John

    Schneider Barrels question....

    I've used many of Gary's barrels. They all have been good shooters. He is a good guy and I would recommend his barrels to anyone. The number above is correct, 928.474.2852. For current pricing you should call them direct. John

    6x47 or 6.5x47

    I have both and like both. I believe the 6 X 47 has an edge at distance. With 105 Bergers and RE 17 it's hard to beat. I get 3300 + fps out of that combination. Pretty spectacular ballistics. More foot lbs of energy continually after 200 yds than a 308 with 175 grain match kings. In our local...

    6mm barrel choices or what do you run ?

    I like medium palma tapers and am quite happy with Schneider barrels. If you're using 105 or 115 grain bullets the 7.5 twist p5 works well. I don't think there is any downside to using the 7.5 twist with the 105's. John

    Bipod options besides Harris?

    Re: Bipod options besides Harris? I know many people like the Atlas,I have one and don't care for it. I have Harris's, Sinclair's both tactical and F class, a Dolphin and Roedales. I prefer the Roedale's although they are quite pricey. Here's a link...

    Utah State Sniper Shoot 2012, Sept.8-9 Results

    Re: Utah State Sniper Shoot 2012, Sept. 8-9 Clint might want to confirm this but I understand the round count to be 150 rounds for carbine in under one hour, 150 round for pistol under one hour and > 120 for precision rifle. Better get to reloading. John

    Best overall SA 308 bolt face competition caliber?

    Re: Best overall SA 308 bolt face competition caliber? Just my two cents worth. You can push the 115 DTAC's much faster than 3080 FPS with Reloder 17 in a 6XC. The 6 x 47 in a case slightly smaller than the 6XC seems to deliver the same velocity and accuracy as the 6XC. Even though the 6XC...
