    Rifle Scopes Kahles K624i zeroing question/problem

    Resurrecting with a similar problem, now talking the windage. Have you solved how it actually works? I zeroed at 100m and set the turrets as per instructions (loosen two set screws, turn the cap to zero, retighten). Result - I now have 15.6 MIL available in the elevation department (plus the...

    Rifle Scopes Kahles GEN 2 w/ MSR 2 Arrived Today

    Chris, thank you. It´s actually a 10536 which with the help of your web identifies it as the new model with CW turrets. Got it for 2130 EUR here, that is a terrific price considering the pricing of Premiers or even S&Bs here in Europe (they all run pretty close to 3000 EUR mark anywhere, if you...

    Rifle Scopes Kahles GEN 2 w/ MSR 2 Arrived Today

    That would be one hint :) I´m eyeing a local on-shelf scope with MIL-4 reticle. How do I know it´s the new one?

    Rifle Scopes Kahles GEN 2 w/ MSR 2 Arrived Today

    Is there a way to tell Gen i from Gen II scope? Have no idea how long it´s been sitting on the shelf in the shop. Don´t want to end up buying an early model if there´s a better one already.

    1420 yds, My limitations with 6.5 Creedmoor

    Not only is that great shooting in my eyes, I also find your humble approach to the issue very inspiring. Thanks for sharing, I hope to get to shoot (and maybe score) at such distance, too!

    Rifle Scopes Schmidt Bender PMII 12-50x56 P4 Fine.

    I´d like to bring this up and hopefully hear from those more experienced with the scope; I have an option of buying a S&B 12-50 P4F FFP with .125MOA adjustments; I´d like to use it for shooting low power at shorter distances (100-300), mid power out to 1000 and use the top end really mostly for...

    Gunsmithing Stock mod - a different biopd adapter

    To try the memnory of y´all, have you ever met a bipod adapter like this one: it serves very similar purpose of what a BigDogSteel adapter does on an AICS, moving the biopd further forward, however this works on a traditional stock. It seems to be mounted via an Anschutz rail. My...

    2-stage sizing process yields very low runout

    Salazar´s articles are top notch. I´ll try the process and see for myslef. One interesting thing to note would be where does the limited runout start bringing in any benefits; ie it may be significant in 600yds and further benchrest but at the same time it may not be noticeable for off-hand...

    Gunsmithing Ever have a firing pin tip break on a Rem 700??

    Any marks on the actual tip or around where it broke? Could it be running a little off-center, maybe? I´d strip it of the spring and roll it on a glass table to check whther it´s straight in the first place. Just my random thoughts indeed...

    Anybody knows the actual maker of the stock in the first picture? As for the chassis in the second pic, that´s a Dolphin from Mik Maksimovic (UK) Welcome to the Dolphin Gun Company

    Needs some help, ai 2.0

    Had a similar problem with a chassis project. Turned out the mag hit the action before the catch engaged. hdbiker1 is right, however i filed a little material off the magazine detent on the mags I use, since they seemed easily replaceable if screwed up (compared to the mag catch as the chassis...

    Left hand twist bbl to offset spin drift...

    Bro, you definitely to think that over a can of Spin-D. Actually, make that a jug and think long and hard... As to the point, gstaylorg answered that fully and completely. You´ll only change the direction, not get rid of the drift.

    Gauging Interest *AI Spigot for Manners Stocks*

    Range Report G1 or G7

    Just posted this in the Shooter app thread, but figure it could help some here, too. Have to agree with Frank, if you don´t, invest your own time and TEST your beliefs by the bullet´s flight. Results to the experiment: Both calculations were within .4mils at 960m sight-in (1050yards). We had...

    Range Report Introducing "Shooter", ballistics for Android!

    Results to the experiment: Both calculations were within .4mils at 960m sight-in (1050yards). We had a realy hot day, over 30°C in the open (+-80-90F); I had to adjust the MV using the Shooters´ muzzle velocity tool -> came out at 898m/s for the G1 and 900m/s for the G7 (2946fps and 2952fps...

    Range Report Density altitude averages, average conditions for generic ballistics table?

    Average will always work... around those middle conditions only. Depends on the distance you expect to shoot at, too - the further you go, more exact calculations are needed. I use DA tables myself, and I follow Lindy´s step-by-step (thanks again to the author for having introduced me to the...

    Range Report Introducing "Shooter", ballistics for Android!

    Got into another interesting que: Comparing combined G1 coefficient with G7. The bullet is .30 Nosler Custom Competition 155grs, which is exact copy of Sierra´s original #2155 Palma bullet. It´s loaded to Mv of 2850fps. We can get three different G1 coefficients for dropping speed from here...

    Wyatt Outdoors .223 Mags

    If your DBM/chassis allows it, what about just tweaking AI 308 mags, closing the feed lips a little maybe..? It might be worth playing with one around for a while to find out.
