    Re: Field Precision Rifle Match(FPR) - Louisiana 4/9 Still looking forward to next month's match. My 14 year old has caught the bug, I'll be working at getting him up to speed before then (second gun on the way). I"ll see how he does at long range in the next couple weeks before making the...

    700 XCR Compact Tactical range report and tale

    Re: 700 XCR Compact Tactical range report and tale WHOA! I'll be watching my bolt handle very closely. I have the 700 XCR Long Range Tactical. Stock seems slightly different than yours, maybe the barrel is longer a touch as well. I really like the look of your A3, where'd you get it?

    Range Report 168 or 175 gr on a .308?

    Re: 168 or 175 gr on a .308? You just have to go play with it. I have a similar Rem 700 XCR, I went out and bought two boxes of everything I could get my hands on. In retrospect one box of each would have done ok initially. I thought the FedGMM's in 168 would be my gold standard, but for...

    Range Report SouthWest .308 ammo question

    Re: SouthWest .308 ammo question Yep, I believe they use Win brass for their regular loads. And I'm not yet reloading at this time. I'll get an order of their regular loads and compare them to the Fiocchi 175grSMK's I'm shooting now. I'm expecting them to do a little better even than the...

    Range Report Check my dope...

    Re: Check my dope... Yes, your "side focus" is not so much focus as it is also a parallax adjustment. Before each shot at a new distance do this: with rifle steady, bob head up and down about one-two millimeters (i.e. not much), your cross hairs should stay rock solid on your target's...

    Range Report SouthWest .308 ammo question

    How much _real_ difference do any of you notice between SW Ammo's regularly loaded .308 with 175 SMK's and their Lapua brass 175 SMK's? Does anyone have decent comparison targets? Are the velocities close enough to use the same dope and practice with the regular ammo but take the premium to...

    Re: Where to buy Bottom metal new-used I"ll second Jeff being a stand up guy. Super fast shipping. Just got my bottom metal a couple weeks ago and it's being installed locally. Very nice piece of metal! Can't wait to get it out to the range.

    NC Hickory Groundhog Shoot

    Re: NC Hickory Groundhog Shoot I have the same XCR I gave myself for Christmas several months ago. I love it. I tried a little bit of everything and it really loves digesting Fiocchi 175's. I shot well in my first competition in Texas out to 1000 yds. In practice I shot a 3.75inch 5 shot...
