Book recommendations
Dear fellow shooters, I am looking for a good read or two. Any recomendations are welcome, training or theory as well as a good snipers novel... Ebooks would be good as I am located in Germany and can probably not buy most US books in paper version. Thank you all in advance Rome- rome107

How Do You Test a New Lot of Ammunition?
The gun was fixed in a vice, so i would take the shooter out of the equation, indoor range eliminated wind. The groups were pretty round. The dealer told me they know that KKs are so sensitive obviously that the LOT to LOT difference can change the world. The competition shooters they work with...- rome107

How Do You Test a New Lot of Ammunition?
Hi Guys, We have a well respected rimfire specialist dealer around and he offers ammo testing at his indoor 50m range. They equip top tier rimfire shooters (classic disciplines) in Germany. I recently tested 10 different LOTs of the same brand and type of ammo, RWS Rifle Match. The groups were...- rome107

Rimfire Rifle Photos Thread
Hi, This is my first serious rimfire rifle, an Anschuetz 1416 with beavertail stock. 18" threaded barrel. One thing to note here is that Anschuetz is resessing the actual muzzle by about 1/2" so that the thinner material where the thread is cut does not have any negative effect on the muzzle...- rome107

14" barrel - a bad idea?
Hi Badfinger, I should have mentioned that I live in Germany where Anschuetz actually sells it original with 14" barrel. The length restriction we have is an over all length of 23.6" to be a rifle and not a pistol. So legal issues do not apply here:-) I am just wondering if short barrels would...- rome107

14" barrel - a bad idea?
Hello people, I have had a CZ455 with 20" and a Walther with 18". Both are not really performing under 2 MOA consistently at 100m, even with premium ammo. So I am looking for a more precise gun, threaded barrel and magazin fed as a trainer. I have a good offer for an Anschuetz 1416 D HB G...- rome107

Experience with Lee Hand Press
Hi Guys, I got the little hand press and outfitted it with premium benchrest dies from "Triebel Guntools". After seating the first 20 bullets I compared the concentricity and length to ammo (same lot of brass and bullets) that I made on a Rock Chucker press and Forster dies. I could not see a...- rome107

What does "Precision Guarantee" mean?
Hi people, Many gunbuilders and manufacturers claim a ".5 MOA guarantee for 3 shot groups with match grade ammo". What does that mean? That I shoot 10 groups with any "Match" ammo and one of these groups will be .5 MOA? That I shoot 10 shots and the best 3 hits will be closer than .5 MOA? That...- rome107

Experience with Lee Hand Press
Hi Guys, I wonder if anyone of you has actual experience with the Lee Hand Press. Is it capable of accurate reloads with a good set of dies? I am not looking for bench rest accuracy with it but more like a practical load with about 1 MOA groups. This is what my results were until now with my...- rome107
