    M1A Super Match

    Re: M1A Super Match Have a SM with oversized walnut stock (model #9102) and it shoots every bit as straight as I cam aim it. When a scope is mounted and a good position is used it's a solid .5-.75 moa rifle with preferred handloads (Fed brass, 40.2 gr IMR 4064 lit by F210M's spitting out a...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper HS LR FFP scopes with XLR reticle

    Re: Vortex Viper HS LR FFP scopes with XLR reticle What'd be really great is some through-the-scope pics that demonstrate the clarity, reticle, and magnification capabilities. Also, please let us know how the box-test turns out and if the reticle hold-overs place shots accurately. But...

    Re: Puget Sound Area Shooter's Group I also had a great time this last Saturday meeting new people and shooting at UNSC for the PR Fun Match. All things considered I had a great time! Time limits were challenging on some stages and generous on others, targets were acquireable yet...

    m1a HELP ME! im goin crazy haha

    Re: m1a HELP ME! im goin crazy haha Now that I've thought about this for a second... Have you ever met a machanically sound rifle with a quality optic and barrel that produced sub-standard accuracy when spitting out match ammo while in the hands of a competent marksman (No matter bolt gun or...

    m1a HELP ME! im goin crazy haha

    Re: m1a HELP ME! im goin crazy haha No matter how you break it down a .308 semi auto is going to hurt the wallet. If considering a M1A be sure to go with a model that is glass bedded and has the Douglas Air Gagued barrel. I have never seen one that wouldn't shoot well under 1 moa <span...

    Re: Puget Sound Area Shooter's Group To assist in preperation for upcoming practical shoots I'm working on a deck of cards that will randomly challenge shooters while keeping in mind several factors, ie: firearm type (bolt guns and semi autos will be able to complete each stage), various...

    biathlon training???

    Re: biathlon training??? Example 2: On the start of a shot string, focus on breathing cycle/bolt manipulation (breathe in, open the bolt; breathe out, clost the bolt; breathe in, confirm sight picture; breathe out, fire and follow-through). Semi auto rifles may eliminate the first in/out...

    biathlon training???

    I have my own "thing" that I do on occasion, but what are some things that you all are doing to make shot strings more difficult in terms of personal fitness (Irregardless of shooting position)? Example 1: On the call of a cold range I might make it a point to be the last person down-range...

    Re: Puget Sound Area Shooter's Group ROCK ON!!! Thanks, Unknown, for all of your time and effort getting this dicipline organized on a regular basis in the South Sound area. And also thanks to UNSC for their enthusiasm. Sometimes people/clubs are sceptical of trying new things; however...

    Question for the M1A guys

    Re: Question for the M1A guys Being a hand-loader, my M1A SM really likes 40.2 grs of IMR 4064 underneath 168 NCC's (FC brass and F210M primers) and they move at 2375 fps. I am aware that others may prefer a load that will move faster, but higher powder charges begin to show signs of high...

    Re: SHWW Group Speaking of match rules, I had a great time the other weekend shooting with Unknown at the Practical Rifle match at UNSC. Sensible rules that were enforced when necessary in a polite manner by a nice fella. Any idea when the next match will be? If so, let me know what I can...

    Range etiquette and barrel length

    Re: Range etiquette and barrel length Personally, I'm an M1A kinda guy... that being said, I think of a day at the range like a night at the bowling alley: let the guy next to ya take a shot before you let 'er rip. This way nobody gets butt-hurt about by muzzle blast/flying brass, and every...

    How much powder to use for .223

    Re: How much powder to use for .223 Holy shit, that's funny! A 2x4? Talk about precision handloading instruments! That video was a joke, right? Or was that some dipshit's idea of handloading? Talk about a good way to blow yourself up! lol

    Weird reloading issue

    Re: Weird reloading issue This used to baffle me too and keep me awake at night as well. Took mine to the local guru for enlightenment. He sat me down, put his hand on my shoulder, and said: "Bennybooboo, you have much to learn..." He then proceeded to mark up seated bullets, not loaded...

    308 1 in 10 twist bulet choice

    Re: 308 1 in 10 twist bulet choice Sounds like you've done some thinking regarding your rifle's parts and whatnot. You stated that you'd like to possibly shoot out to 1k. With the barrel specified (20" 10 twist in .308 win) you may have trouble getting some of the lighter bullets (<175) to...
