    Savage MKii FV

    It's only 25 yards, but my MK II shoots tiny groups with cheap Remington subsonics. Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk

    Howa 1500 vs bergara HMR

    Read David Petzal's reviews of the Howa HCR and Bergara HMR. He loves them both. I have the Bergara and it's a hell of a shooter. I'm very new to long range shooting and I shot this 1.72" group at 300 yards a couple weeks ago with my Bergara in 6.5 Creedmoor and I barely know what I'm doing...

    Mazda Miata. Perfect because it means we always have to take one of my friends' truck. Found the pic on the web, but mine looks just like it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

    I like it a lot and, for what I'm using it for, I see no reason to change it.

    Yeah, I tried to dial the magnification just right so a top and bottom stadia line were just at the top and bottom of the circle. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

    Still the big black circle. I saw once on their website that they'll put a target with a smaller aiming point (one of the NRA targets I think) over the circle if you let them know a day ahead of time and pay an extra $5. I can't find it on the site now though. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

    I live west of Atlanta. It's about an hour and twenty minute drive for me. I've only been three times, but it's a great range.

    Got my Bergara 6.5CM to the range, finally, yesterday and it's definitely a shooter. I got this 1.72" group from 300 yards with 140gr Hornday ELD Match. Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk

    Stabilizing 69gr .223 in 1:9 twist barrel

    Back from the range and I have my answer. I'm my barrel at least the 69gr FGMM shoots lights out, but the 75gr Hornday Match is all over the place. Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk

    Stabilizing 69gr .223 in 1:9 twist barrel

    This topic has been covered extensively but I have a specific question that I haven't seen answered anywhere. I know that slower twist rifles often won't stabilize the heavier and longer .223 bullets. I have a Savage Axis with a 1:9 twist and yesterday I shot a couple groups at 25 yards with 69...

    Helping a friend pick an entry level precision rifle

    He has shot the RPR, but not the Bergara. Based on what he told me yesterday I think he's leaning towards the Howa HCR in 308. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

    Helping a friend pick an entry level precision rifle

    I have a friend looking to buy his first precision rifle. He thinks I'm an expert because I've shot out to 600 yards a few times. I am clearly not an expert, but I do have an RPR in .308 and a Bergara HMR in 6.5 Creedmoor and I've been able to shoot some nice groups with them. I would still...

    Barrel break-in and ammo testing Bergara HMR 6.5CM

    That's what I'm hoping. The manual for the rifle says to follow the break in procedure, but Bergara's website says no break in is necessary. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

    Barrel break-in and ammo testing Bergara HMR 6.5CM

    Can I start shooting groups with various types of ammo to see what my new rifle likes while I'm going through the barrel break-in procedure recommended by Bergara? I have a new HMR in 6.5CM and I'd like to shoot a few to sight in my scope then start shooting groups right away. I don't want to...

    I guess we were thinking along the same lines. I have a Dobbs Defense ARC30 suppressor coming any day now as well. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro
