    6.5x47 Lapua

    I'm getting close to finishing my 2nd barrel and definitely got another on the way. The 4 main bullets I've focused on have been the 156, 153.5 and 144 bergers, and the 153 A tip. I have a 27" 7.5 twist barrel also. My 2 best results have come from the 156's in my first barrel and then the 144's...

    6.5x47 Lapua

    I've recently had a 6.5x47 put together to try my luck at some of the heavy bullets. Been hampered with a recent shoulder surgery on my left side so thankfully being a righty I've still been able to shoot on my good side a little. Barrel is a Hawk Hill 7.5t finished at 27.5" So far these are...

    Gunsmithing Accuracy International bolt issue

    Interesting enough I have the exact same issue with my AI. Probably only happens 1 out of 50 rounds of live fire but 1 out of 5 if I dryfire. Guess I will call MH and try and send in the bolt. I'd estimate roughly 8k rounds on it and easily 40-50k dryfires.

    Which brake?

    Most all the common brakes are very effective. From the Hellfire match, ACE, APA, the new MDT comp brake, I really couldn't tell much of a difference between them, although I didn't shoot them all back to back in the same day. I bought one of the TMB's from strikewithoutwarning a few months...

    PRS Talk Tripod Leg Wraps

    Yes it has just a slight bit of cushion, and grippy enough that it is great for using it for rear support.

    PRS Talk Tripod Leg Wraps

    I started out with some tennis racket grip tape but ended up with some baseball bat tape that I love. Alien Pros was the brand, they have tons of different colors and patterns. 1 pack of 3 is good for 1 leg.

    You got more of the 3/4x24 thread brakes coming in the near future? I am sold on these and have a couple other rifles that need to be outfitted.

    New Hornady 109gr 6mm ELD-M

    Postponed going to work for a few minutes and think I have it figured out. Looks like a seperate baggy of the other 200 bullets are inside the case of 2500.

    New Hornady 109gr 6mm ELD-M

    Mine was just delivered a minute ago, thankfully it does appear to be packed pretty well, I’ve got to go do a little bit of work so I will dig into it when I get back but the one slightly off thing I noticed was it said 2500pcs on it as opposed to 2700. Maybe a typo. I can weigh it when I get...

    Kelby's Prometheus Action

    My gunsmith is currently getting a barrel spun up for mine so hopefully I can go pick it up and if I'm lucky get a few rounds downrange this weekend. Played with it for a little bit before I gave it to him, I've been pretty much using a couple Black Bear's in matches the last couple years and...

    Accuracy International AT-X

    Yeah I'm really digging the Blue, gonna have to call MH and see if they are expecting their Blue's as well. Anyone else order a blue from MH pretty early on here?

    Introducing the AI Obsession Chassis

    It really is a remarkable chassis, by far the most sturdy and tough chassis I’ve used. I’m definitely gonna use it more in matches this next year. I’m sure your gonna love it.
