Has it limits with respect to giving/receiving help with shooting form etc.. If all the scope base and ring screws are secure. And the action screws are...

    200 yard zero problems

    A 4" group at 100 could easily equate to a 10" group at 200. Are you shooting from a bench or other support? What kind of ammo? Is everything tight? Do you have other rifles that you shoot better with?

    Priming new brass

    While I have no experience with the hornady brass. New brass = tighter pockets in general. You may want to take apart your primer tool. clean it and put some anti seize or hi pressure grease on the friction parts. For me this gave better feedback for fully seated vs just a tight pocket.

    Cool hope they shoot lights out for you. We have rain and snow here but I have to get off this dang computer. I'm heading to the range as well. Be sure to show those bug holes later.

    F T/R Competition LC brass for club level F/TR

    It seems like lower case capacity and not the quality is why some people prefer Winchester. If you can't get what you want, run it? sorry not much help It would be nice if you could prep some and prove it before your season starts.

    Gunsmithing Heaviest reasonable barrel contour on Howa, Tikka and Remington?

    I would not think the weight would be to much for the action. Wouldn't hurt to ask your smith though.

    Trigger replacement options

    I use my jewells for hunting as well. Never had a problem. If you want the option to set them light the jewell would suit you well. I have timney triggers too. They are good. You can definitely improve your stock trigger but for the best precision a jewell is my choice. If you are not familiar...

    Just as I suspected. More likely related to my ignorance off computers than something with the browser itself. Some things never change.

    Rifle Scopes question about a scope resting on top of a picc. rail

    Not that it is for everyone. But I have been l have been know to choose function over form at times. I would not do it unless I was sure that I would be able to live with the results.
