I tried running Federal brass at one of Woody's DM matches in New Hill with the Saiga I put so much work into. This was only the second loading, but the primers fell out of 75% of the rounds, fouling the weapon and ruining the stage. I'm sure my partner wanted to strangle me. I've been...
Found it ... that's exactly the info I need. I was hoping the long range targets could be moved around. But it looks like I need to essentially build a 'bullet trap' around each one, and a substantial berm on the left side all the way down. I need to buy a Bobcat instead of rent one, I...
Realizing there isn't a definitive answer for this, because it's based on load, bullet, angle of deflection, etc., but could someone provide an educated guess on how much of a safety buffer I need for an 800 yard range? It will be a single lane, about 20 yards wide, in the middle of 97 acres...
I've been mapping the lane using a simple Garmin GPS. I used the GIS map to plan out the longest shot I could get across the property into the large rise/berm and it came out to almost 800 yards - but I'll need a pretty tall tower for all the target locations to be clear. I started...
LOL. :D That thing drove me nuts. I'd fire ten rounds of my best handload for the rifle from a full rest and I'd find five within a 1' group, seven within 1.5", and all ten running out to 3" or so. The scattered rounds didn't come at the end (heat) but rather could be anywhere in the...
Around the Fayetteville area this shit is rampant. Especially in EMS locally. In the 2.5 years since I left IT and went into EMS I've personally met three EMT ass-clowns who were SF/SFOD/Super Secret Sniper/etc. but who claimed their info wasn't on their 214 because it was classified. All...
For anyone else with the bright idea of turning a Saiga 308 into a precision rifle ... forget it. An SDM rig is the best you'll get and anything past 500 yards will be iffy. I finally stopped pouring money down a hole and traded it. That said ... I learned a TON and had fun. So not a total...
We're going to have to take down quite a few trees, as it turns out, to get gator access and to keep from having to trim constantly. This weekend we spent a day just planning deer stand lanes and roughing ideas for the longish range practice. There are three logging roads going into the...
Well, over a year later we have the property in Rockingham Co. We have three homes to remodel, one gutted to the studs and flooring, so I don't know how long it will be till I can start on the long range lanes. We have a natural CQB pit shooting down against the bank of a large stream...
Re: Thoughts on maxpedition kodiak and other gearsling I haven't tried the Gearslingers, but I run a 5.11 MOAB 10 attached to my ruck, that I can release (attached with 5.11 hardware) and carry as a day pack or use in classes for materials and personal items. The MOAB 10 rides very well and...
Weird question ... I'm making an offer on a large tract of land that is rolling hills and heavily wooded. I don't want to just knock down trees to cut my way thru, but rather selectively cut branches to make lanes. From an elevated platform about 10' tall I think I can get out to about 700...
Re: 135 SMKs and semi-autos revisited, w/questions ... Shot another 50 rounds of the 135 SMKs. I shot them at 100, 200, 250, 300, and 350 and like before they're staying just under or right at 2 MOA for ten. I still get the occasional stellar five-shot group that closer to 1 MOA. But I...
Re: Savage 110 .243 ? Before swapping the barrel on it I'd try floating the barrel channel, bedding the action, and stiffening the forearm with bar stock. Myself and another guy did this to a Marlin XS and he shot a 6" group with it at 600 with 168gr FGMM (I never shot it that well)...
Re: Savage 110 .243 ? I'm also looking for a used .243 right now for the increasing number of coyotes around here. Last night there were two packs - one across the road from me and one in the field next to me - singing me to sleep. Sounded like six or seven voices in each pack. I'm...
