    What do you consider the Gen 3 Razor of Rangefinding Binos? Specifically with PRS/NRL in mind.

    You have to use the BDX app to make minor adjustments to the reticle. Press a button on the Kilo 10K to turn it on. Once the BDX app is open and paired to your Kilo 10K open up the laser rangefinder section which brings up the menus for your binos. In the upper right corner is the gear icon for...

    What do you consider the Gen 3 Razor of Rangefinding Binos? Specifically with PRS/NRL in mind.

    In range finding binos, the Sig Kilo 10 K gen 2 is my choice. The optics are a lot better, better clarity and less blue tint, than the gen 1. The laser is excellent as is the onboard AB Elite and linking with other AB devices. The buttons and menus are pretty easy to use, and it’s the only...

    300 Norma H-1000 max?

    I have had good results with H1000 and 245 Bergers with one of the most important things being temp stability across a range of temperatures. I'm shooting a 30" barrel whereas the OP was shooting a 26" barrel so that will make a difference. I switched from N570 because I had too many issues with...

    300 Norma H-1000 max?

    I have a 30" Bartlein 1-9 barrel. With the 245 Berger EOL (same loads as the 245 LRHT) I'm loading 81.0 H1000, Lapua case, CCI 34 primers and getting velocities around 2930 seated .070 off the lands with excellent accuracy and consistency.

    Unusual velocity changes.

    What powder are you using and was the temperature very different between range sessions? Some powders are more temp sensitive than others.

    Gunsmith for 1911 work?

    Jim Milks was the gunsmith at EGW for many years before setting up his own shop, Innovative Custom Guns. He's done excellent work for me on Browning Hi Powers and 1911s and used to have very reasonable turn around times. I don't know if he's still working or retired now but it might be worth a...

    Defiance or American Rifle Company

    I have and really like the Nucleus, Archimedes (short action) and Mausingfield M7(long action) but ARC has stopped making them and will only be making the CDG from now on. So I ordered extra bolt heads to fit all the calibers for those actions that I might want to shoot. Might as well get the...

    Where are all the rifle barrel blanks?

    I’ll chime in with a recommendation for K&P barrrls and LRI. I have two of their barrels that LRI spun up ARC profits and they are both lasers, clean easily and the chambering and threading by LRI are top notch.

    Tikka T3 A1 / Barrel - Yuck

    That’s a lot of corrosion, usually indicative of poor maintenance practices, poor storage conditions, corrosive ammonia, etc I’d also suggest cleaning with an abrasive cleaner like JB Bore Paste and seeing how it shoots. Sometimes barrels that look bad still shoot well.

    Vortex 2025?

    I still own the 2 Vortex AMG 6-24s that I bought years ago. Still some of my favorites and one of them is on my NRL Hunter rifle. Great scopes. The only thing lacking was a 2nd turn indicator which led me to miss 10mils high on a match stage- very embarassing and a mistake I never made again.
