    In my humble opinion, but based on my study of metrology at the current time, this device from KSS in conjunction with a 0.224" scoring plug, provides the best option and it's what we used this year at the ARA Nationals for protests. It's nearly the same as Ken's method, but this magnifier has...

    6X5 Thread V5.0 *new 1/1/21*

    Hi Larry, Yes, I have a process for tuning, but it would require a very lengthy post or article to explain it fully. I'm guessing we'll get to shoot together at some point this year, so corner me and I'll give you an earful that'll make you wish you had never asked the question. LOL Landy

    6X5 Thread V5.0 *new 1/1/21*

    Something a little different: Jay Young Rail-Gun modified by Jerry Stiller to bolt the action to the Rail vs using a barrel block. 2500X with Shilen Ratchet. Shot in my tunnel @ 79 deg's a few days ago to test 2 lots of Tenex (1021-03008 & 1021-04008). This is 1/2 of my Phase 1 testing which...

    6X5 Thread V5.0 *new 1/1/21*

    If you're able to make an ARA Match in McCook and your farming schedule allows for an extra day, my tunnel is another 1 1/2 hrs NE in Cozad, NE. I spent several years designing it after visiting with dozens of others via phone and email. I've also traveled in person and shot in at least 20...

    That's a great looking target and I don't even see any shots needing plugged. Well done! Was this a sanctioned match? Landy

    I'm more than a little biased because I consider Jerry to be one of the best friends I have in the shooting community. I also can't pick a name off the top of my head who has done more than Jerry to help others both here and worldwide. With all due respect, I find your comment very...

    Adding to what Jamie said, and I agree with him, just how many of you guys reading this thread are planning to shoot sanctioned ARA or IR50 matches? I'm really curious and I'm hoping a lot of you will try it. It's a Hell of a lot of fun for both the social aspect at matches and learning much...

    DeLane Dev Grp V-22S Single Shot Support

    Because the target had a fairly decent resolution and more importantly well defined grease rings, I decided I'd take a quick and dirty stab at the measurements. It's difficult to calculate the measurement uncertainties for either my numbers or the poster's, but I've done enough of this to be...

    We seem to have a lot in common. I'm a retired farmer, as well as an ex-commercial/aerobatic pilot, and owned a '52b Bonanza for quite a few years back in the '80's. I reside in Cozad which is about 90 miles northeast of McCook. Maybe we'll meet in the future, Landy

    Hey Tim, I also visited with Emmery a few time and there isn't anyone I've talked to in decades who had the knowledge he had in engineering springs and explaining how they should and need to work for our applications. He reminded me of "Vibe" who disappeared quite a few yeas ago for personal...

    Hi Mark, Very astute of you to think some weight is needed to move the Cg rearward. When I think the Cg may be too far forward, I'll test by using wrist or ankle weights on the butt that can be found in most exercise sections in many stores to modify it. If the data suggests there's an...

    DeLane Dev Grp V-22S Single Shot Support

    So, is this good or bad? At this point, it's totally unknown due to the fact it being only a single target shot in conditions I wasn't able to witness. I've shot enough RFBR matches over the years with all the top shooters and equipment to become fairly adept at judging what competitive scores...

    Invitation to shoot a new Benchrest venue!!

    Hey Mark, You did just fine, and Mark is one of the good guys in RFBR. Were you shooting his Midas+ 28-9333 or the Tenex 1018-2279? Landy

    Hey Jerry, I wanted to play around with Ivan's rest and that was one of your builds sitting in it at post #321. Before I even fired a shot I told Ivan his rest was a piece of crap (May not have been my exact words. LOL) because it was acting really funky. He said "Whoops, forgot to make a few...

    Because Ivan somehow found the time to make a few posts and others like Jerry and Tim were able to make a few excellent contributions, there's not a lot I can add. What I will do for now is give you a few of my thoughts and expand upon one of the previous discussions. I may also post again and...

    Ivan gave me a call last but I'm out of town and won't be back until Sunday. He asked me if I'd be able to help with the data he posted because he knew there would be questions and he was just exhausted from burning the candle from both ends with several different projects and preparing for the...
