    Rifle Scopes Sniper's Hide Exclusive First Look, Leupold DAGR

    Re: Sniper's Hide Exclusive First Look, Leupold DAGR Last trip to the school house in August, I had a chance to see the reticle and presentation on its use by the instructor cadre. I did not have the sense it was particularly well received by either a majority of the instructors or students...

    300gn Berger hybrid performance question

    Re: 300gn Berger hybrid performance question I am able to push he Berger 300 Hybrid to 2900 fps out of my long throated 338 Lapua, and transonic range here at Gunsite was 2024 meters.. did quite get out that far, but went to 2000 meters without any difficulty...

    .338 lapua...What powder to use for 300g

    Re: .338 lapua...What powder to use for 300g I use 95 grains of Retumbo, but I have a long throated chamber, and a 4" mag (Seekins), so I can seat the bullet out much farther. I get 2900 fps with either the 300 Scenar or 300 Berger VLD Hybrid. You cannot get this in a standard...

    Realistic range of the 338 Lapua

    Re: Realistic range of the 338 Lapua Also depends on the bullet used. The Lapua Scenar 300 and Berger 300 VLD Hybrid both perform better past 1500 than the Sierra does.

    ELR Course at Gunsite

    Re: ELR Course at Gunsite This was a great course! Not only all the ELR shooting we got to do under great conditions.. but learning to calibrate and tune the FFS to your rifle. Was within 0.1 Mil from 100 to 2000 meters! Thanks to Cory and the rest of the staff for all the tips and help...

    50 Spotter?

    Re: 50 Spotter? Excaliber, I would be happy to send you a few of my .50 McMurdo cases, if it is OK, I will send you a few that are getting a little long in the teeth for competition, but still serviceable. Skips FCSA case is not practical for shooting anything other than the steel bullets...

    50 Spotter?

    Re: 50 Spotter? I will have to look it up, but I do have the recommended loads for shooting the 50 Spotter projos in the BMG case. You are correct, the .50 Spotter was designed to have the same ballistic trajectory as the 106. If the spotter round was on target, then they would fire the...

    50 Spotter?

    Re: 50 Spotter? Robert, There are several .50 Wildcat cartridges out there. In the FCSA, the late Skip Talbot took the .50 Spotter Case and sharpened the shoulder, made a very short neck (just enough to hold the .200 wide driving band on a 700 grain 12L14 Steel bullet) which worked well at...

    Rifle Scopes I can't because of the cant ...backwards

    Re: I can't because of the cant ...backwards Davemuzz, Don't feel bad. We have all made mistakes.. the important thing is to learn from them. Now you will have a much better understanding of the relationship of rail cant and making more of the scopes elevation range available for use...

    Lapua 50BMG brass?

    Re: Lapua 50BMG brass? The RWS brass is indeed excellent brass. Very consistent in weight, a little heavier than most others and stands up to pressure better. It is so good, that most of the FCSA guys using don't even bother to prep it at all. It is that good! Dale Arenson (TenX...

    .338 Lapua Magnum "Generation II" Development

    Re: .338 Lapua Magnum "Generation II" Development The spec sheet that Crane released did not spec a "Secret Sauce" propellant. They specifically stated that H1000 was to be used. I have a copy of the document for the Mk248 if anyone wants to look at it, I will have to find where I have the...

    375 Chey Tac - Brake choices

    Re: 375 Chey Tac - Brake choices I have had a .375 CT for several years, and never liked the Lawton/CheyTac brake. Just not very effective. I know a smith in Indiana that made brakes very similar to Mr. Snyders, with only the side ports, no top ports. Much more effective. Personally, I do...

    scope max elevation

    Re: scope max elevation You are going to have a difficult time finding something in 35mm rings or "uni-mount" with cant. If you move to a scope with 30mm rings, Nightforce makes all in one "Uni-mounts" with built in cant. Check out their site, and you can see the options. Hope this helps

    Re: Chiroprators? I know I am a little late jumping in here, but I have been an orthopedic physical therapist for 34 years. As has been mentioned above there are good and not so good providers of care regardless of specialization, my own included. Whether PT, DC, MD, or DO, there are...

    Rifle Scopes How are the Vortex holding up on 50's?

    Re: How are the Vortex holding up on 50's? The issue with scopes on a .50 BMG rifle is not the perceived recoil, but rather the 21 G reversal of recoil due to the muzzle brake. The phenomenon is the same with piston action air guns. It slams the scope forward. So the scope must be designed...
