    Range Report Hornady 6mmCreedmoor 103 ELD-X and 108 ELD match too long

    Hornady 6mm Creedmoor 108gr ELD Match ammo is also too long for my rifle. I documented it here: https://www.ocabj.net/precision-rifle-project-series-american-rifle-company-mausingfield-part-4/ https://www.ocabj.net/precision-rifle-project-series-american-rifle-company-mausingfield-part-5/ I...

    Action/ chamber fitted bore guide

    I bought a PMA Tool bore guide for my 700 in 308, and have another one on the way for 6mm (Creedmoor). The Lucas guide is definitely more exact since you provide your cleaning rod diameters, but the PMA guide is respectable in its own right. They ship out in a couple days. In a world of...

    Really Right Stuff Dovetail Pic Rail Clamp Video

    Got my HC-Pro yesterday as well. Still waiting on another Harris S-BRM, though. Stupid FedEx Smartpost.

    Really Right Stuff Dovetail Pic Rail Clamp Video

    I bought the regular Harris adapter with lever clamp last week. I ordered the 'Pro' adapter for the Harris on Monday. I specifically decided to take the Picatinny rails off the bottom of my MPA to use the Arca-Swiss dovetail exclusively. I want to try both. If anything, I would run the pro...

    Range Report Federal Premium 6.5 Creedmoor

    Oh, I probably should have noted that in the article. But it's a 24" 1:8" Shilen.

    Range Report Federal Premium 6.5 Creedmoor

    Incidentally, I posted a mini-review this morning. This stuff is basically equivalent to 43.2gr H4350 with a Berger 130gr AR Hybrid in either Hornady or Lapua brass in my rifle.

    Nightforce tripod issues.. anyone have one?

    As far as not all lever release Arca-Swiss style clamps being compatible with various manufacturer's plates, you can either stick to one manufacturer's clamp *and* plates (e.g. RRS), you can get a lever clamp that is adjustable (e.g. Acratech), or you can just use a screw knob clamp.

    Nightforce tripod issues.. anyone have one?

    You have a couple of options. You could replace the clamp with an Arca Swiss clamp. RRS has many different clamps that will fit various ball stem thread pitches. This is how I converted my Manfrotto 488RC2 to Arca-Swiss several years ago. You could also just thread an Arca-Swiss clamp directly...

    Hog Saddle/Manfrotto vs RRS Vyce/rifle mount

    I'm using the BH-55 on Induro GIT-204 legs after I found my Manfrotto 055XPROB and 488RC2 to be insufficient for rifle usage. I have the VYCE as well as a mount adapter on my AICS. Documented here: https://www.ocabj.net/rifle-shooting...uff-equipment/ (photo heavy)...

    Photos Photobucket alternative?

    Imgur is trash IMO. Pretty much the home for viral or meme photos. The only reason I used it is because it was to hotlink some images on reddit that I didn't want coming off of own website. If you actually care about your images, light up a virtual private server on Linode or Digital Ocean and...

    JBM Trajectory Card

    Not understanding your question. 300 Win Mag uses a .308 caliber bullet. I went to the JBM site, scrolled through the drop down and see the Hornady 0.308 cal 180gr SST.

    130 Berger Hybrids with H4350 and IMR4451 (RPR 6.5 CM PVA BARREL)

    Furthermore, the 130 Nosler Accubond is 1.320" in length and is a spitzer design (long base to ogive length), and Hodgdon lists the COL in 6.5mm Creedmoor for that bullet as 2.750", which means lower cartridge capacity and explains the lower maximum. The Berger 130gr AR Hybrid is 1.295" in...

    Arca Swiss Plate for MPA Chassis

    I personally prefer a screw clamp vs a lever lock clamp, only because there is no definitive 'standard' for Arca Swiss style dovetails. You have may have an Arca Swiss plate or device with an Arca Swiss dovetail cut, but it may not work on a given lever clamp of another manufacturer due to...

    308 = 2650 fps. / 6.5 Creedmoor = 2710 fps. Why 1/2 the barrel life?

    I run Lapua 6.5mm Creedmoor brass in a 24" 1:8" Shilen. Berger 130gr AR Hybrid + 43.5gr H4350 + Wolf SRM = 2900fps Berger 140gr Hybrid Target + 42.0gr H4350 + CCI BR4 or Wolf SRM = 2750fps I really haven't tried to push. I went to 42.3gr H4350 with the 140gr and saw it average 2763fps.

    watching mirage with parallax turned back

    As a former High Power Service Rifle competitor, I generally dial my spotting scope to be in focus about 2/3rds of the way to the target (e.g. 200 yard line when on the 600, 400 yard line while on the 1000). Even if I'm using a scoped rifle (e.g. F-Class format), I will still use my spotting...

    Arca Swiss Plate for MPA Chassis

    It appears the dovetail is standard on the MPA BA Competition Chassis, or at least it was on the one I received last week. https://www.ocabj.net/masterpiece-arms-ba-competition-chassis-preview/
