    Re: 308 at 1000 Is the 168 gr bullet a bad choice? I am a newbie and would like to participate at 100m matches. So far i shoot 168s.

    Loging rounds through the barrel

    Into how much detail should the rounds put through the barrel be loged? Should I log every single one or rather maintain a rough idea how much went through it? The same goes for range log, what is the best procedure? Loging every hit right after it was shot or strings of rounds? I am looking...

    HELP needed! Bolt opening problems

    Re: HELP needed! Bolt opening problems OK, dirty chamber is much better than a serious problem with it. Thank you, Predator and Greg.

    HELP needed! Bolt opening problems

    Re: HELP needed! Bolt opening problems I had only 3 sessions with the rifle, but I didn't clean the chamber, so a build-up is possible. I will clean it thoroughly and see what happens. Any other ideas? Anyone?

    HELP needed! Bolt opening problems

    Re: HELP needed! Bolt opening problems The coat of soot was thin and came off just by rubbing it with my finger. Otherwise the case looked fine. Is it a problem with the chamber? OMG!!!

    HELP needed! Bolt opening problems

    I have a brand new TRG 22. Yesterday I went to shoot and after app. 40 rounds the bolt started to get stuck closed, i.e. it required considerable effort to lift the handle, after that the bolt slid back effortleslly. I happened only after discharge, without firing the bolt worked fine. I tried...

    Rifle Scopes Glass quality in high end scopes? Data?

    Re: Glass quality in high end scopes? Data? If you narrow your selection to, say two scopes of the same quality and parameters, i would also look on tube diameter, after what Lindy wrote.

    Rifle Scopes Glass quality in high end scopes? Data?

    Re: Glass quality in high end scopes? Data? You should test the scopes with your eyes. A guy I know had to sell Zeiss because he had problems focusing his eyes with glasses. He ended with Schmidt und Bender, because it suited his eyes better. With the brands at the top the "glass" will be...

    new TRG22 - 20" or 26" barrel???

    Re: new TRG22 - 20" or 26" barrel??? Just got back from the range with the Finish lady. I also have been wanting a TRG 22 for several years. Finally I have it, with 26" barrel. I am conservative old dog so I chose 26, but I believe both options will be up to Sako's level of excellence. Go get...

    Re: For Cheytac 408 owners who are having problems.... You paid that kind of money for their product, which turned out to be faulty and they didn't fix it immediatelly and let you go with problem unsolved? What kind of business policy is this? They should appologize to hell and back and give...

    Noob's new rifle

    Re: Noob's new rifle Thanks for the compliments, I love the rig. I believe the problem is not the scope as such, it must be the set-up. The mount is Sako Opti-Lok D34 with 30 MOA forward inclination. My problem is, that when I wanted to compensate for the temperature change, I needed to...

    Noob's new rifle

    I bought myself a precission rifle and finally got the time to take it out. As you can see it is TRG 22 with Schmidt und Bender PMII 5-25x56 (with PL4 Fein reticle, you can't see that). My first 10 rounds at 100 m ended like this (Remington Premier Match, 168 Grs HPBT). The first three...
