    Suppressors wells custom or thunderbeast

    The upside here is that I have learned a LOT about TB's cans and I like what I see a whole lot. They appear 100% impressive in every regard and I look forward to seeing one in person. You wrote: Since much of that information is not publicly available on the website, how exactly did...

    Comp Equipment Questions

    This is one such instance. The lead for most movers is 1-1.2 MILS. A half MIL hash in a scope at half magnification becomes a full MIL. It makes it very easy and convenient. Most SFP shooters I know run their scopes on half magnification all the time except for target ID, RE, or situations...

    Rolling, I point out that it is extremely bad form to edit one's post after responses to it in context have been posted. I'm going to help you get to this information. Let's start with this: How is it that you have such detailed technical information on what is inside of that suppressor...

    If you get a titanium can, you need the cover for sure. They heat up faster than steel, but they also cool faster too. The covers do work. I haven't used a TB suppressor cover but they look great on the website. The first comp you come out and shoot with it, you will wind up with...

    It's all about the Benjamins. rdg - how much do you want to spend? That's how you make the decision on what to shop for. If the OP wants to spend $1300, he has a wide range to look at including Surefire, TBAC, Gemtech or one of many other boutique grade high end suppressors. Attempting...

    >> I know what makes up the internals of the Thunderbeast and how the armature is produced. Why is this information necessary to a consumer? Let's suppose it is. Please elaborate on what "makes up" the internals, and exactly how the armature is produced and why it is superior to...

    I know quite a few (10+) guys with Dave Wells' cans including my partner, and all are highly satisfied. The repeatability on POI shift has more to do with how your can fits the barrel thread shoulder than the can itself. You are local enough that you could bring it to him to have it trued...

    Shooting Compitition in New Jersey or around the area

    Maybe visit their website and do what it says? ;-) Cumberland Riflemen There are a lot of matches planned in PA, MD, and the nearby corner of WV this year. Enough that you could shoot more than one a month throughout the spring summer and fall. --Fargo007

    Or turn the magnification down too far. Then the reticle looks like a far away plus sign and is unusable. Tuned in SFP shooters use the magnification ring relationship to the reticle as a tool rather than condemning it as a flaw. The reality is that they both have advantages and...

    Training Courses Bhtc 2014 training and competition schedule (pennsylvania)

    Our 2014 training and competition dates are posted on the calendar portion of our website. We are doing a couple new things this year. Notably, a 2.5 day top sniper competition which will consist of a full day of shooting on day 1, a night fire stage, and full fieldcraft exercises on day 2...

    As 2014 Approaches does this need to be addressed ?

    Not my decision at all but my view is that these two things don't belong together for score comparison purposes. F-Class is its own separate sport with its own separate place to record results and classify shooters. It's true it's good training, and I tried my hand at 3x600's as well. But...

    Hootie that's been gone through. As I point out the classes really won't show an across the board difference with the average shot of most matches anyway. And let's suppose that most of the matches that report scores to TRL are not going to be 1000Y type max distance matches anyhow. If...

    308's Still going to be out there but it will play in the gas gun class for the most part. And that's covered. There's nothing much else to say about .308 anymore that hasn't been said ten times. I wonder what will be the average distance of a TRL-participating match? For instance if...

    Easy Peazy. I made a worksheet already to easily calculate this. e.g. 10 shots @ 100Y = 1000 10 shots @ 400Y = 4000 5 shots @ 600Y = 3000 10 shots @ 500Y = 5000 Total distance: 13000 divided by 35 shots total = 371Y average...

    If you did read all 12 pages, you have missed a lot. #1 - yes. If you tell us what you are shooting now and why, and compare that to the provided description of what you started with that will make it abundantly clear. This was gone over in great detail about 7 pages ago. #2 - no...
