    Good $600 scope for a trainer.

    I don't want to knock anyone else's choices, but I purchased an Athlon Argos BTR 8-34x and have nothing but trouble with it. It doesn't track well and I ran into the issue of it not actually making the adjustments after turning the turrets, for 2 to 3 shots, then it would just into position...

    10/22 stock upgrade

    I have the titan and have played with a boyds tacticool on a Savage MkII before. The titan is lighter and comes with more features. The boyd's are nice, I can't knock them on that, but considering that it doesn't have QD swivels and it's not inletted for the rear tang, its easy to make the...

    Changing Ammo practices

    I'll just link to this article that covers cleaning .22lr rifles is a ton detail. http://www.rrdvegas.com/rimfire-cleaning.html But it takes my 10/22 w/ Kidd barrel about 30rds settle in after cleaning. Just like on center fire rifles building up that layer of copper, rimfires do the same with...

    ELEY Practical Rimfire Challenge

    Sorry for kinda derailing this thread with this post, but I know people are out there that this will apply to. Just wanted to type this up real quick in case any one wants to come out to the competition, but are daunted by the equipment or worried they don't have the gear or rifle needed to...

    ELEY Practical Rimfire Challenge

    I saw some guys dailing elevation and others holding over. I, myself, was dailing the first target and holding over from there on the targets following it, no way I was going to trust the turrets on my Athlon Argos BTR 8-34x (already replaced). Personally I dislike BDC reticles, they hardly ever...

    ELEY Practical Rimfire Challenge

    Well shoot, guess we didn't get briefed correctly at the stage or we missed part. That's all right, it was a long day of shooting and we were trying to finish up fast since everyone was waiting on our squad. Edited original post to reflect this new info. I did like that stage. I liked the...

    ELEY Practical Rimfire Challenge

    Just wanted to echo what everyone else said. It was a great match and I had blast. I came into it not really knowing what it was going to be like and more or less expected it to run like the matches the .22 Marksmanship Challenges the Long Range Shooters Utah folks put on and have numerous...

    Got my new Kidd build up and running

    Did you mount the rail on the stock yourself? Working on saving up for a Kidd trigger right now. Pretty excited to pair it with the Kidd Light Weight barrel I have now.

    18" SPR Barrel Choice

    Just to let everyone know I call WOA today and order the barrel. They quoted me 6-7 months. Good thing I got a whole before I'll be home. I swear it's going to be like X-mas when I get there. I've ordered well over 2k worth of gun parts and still have more to go lol.

    18" SPR Barrel Choice

    You have a build list for that? Interesting Break, Rail and grip I've never seen

    18" SPR Barrel Choice

    Black Hole must be "embarrassed" by who makes their Blanks. Can't find any info concerning that. I think I'm pretty set on going WOA. Noveske doesn't really appeal to me simply because of the intermediate gas tube length. I'd rather not have to limit my options with proprietary parts. Plus...

    18" SPR Barrel Choice

    Is that a 20" or 18"?

    18" SPR Barrel Choice

    Any body know what blanks Black Hole and BCM use? Just curious.

    18" SPR Barrel Choice

    Yes, I'm half temped to call him up and see what he can do for me, he works with Krieger and Douglas barrel. If there is any chance of getting what I want with a Krieger I'll be doing that. Frank White actually does barrels for WOA, thus allowing John Holliger focus on WOP.

    18" SPR Barrel Choice

    Just wondering if you guys had any suggestions on barrel choices for a 18" rifle length gas barrel. Price isn't to much of a concern. Trying to find some actual support for one barrel over another. Been looking at WOA for a while but I wanted to see what you guys had to say about a few other...
