    Whats the point--CBTO and COAL and Magazine limits

    Yes throat erosion is directly related to your caliber choice, and the heat generated by your rifle through firing quickly, long strings, and repeated strings when the rifle hasn't fully cooled. If this were a non-match rifle, I would base my intervals on the caliber choice. Every rifle I'd...

    Benefits of practicing with a .22lr vs just dry firing more

    I do both in my PRS training. Dryfire is great because you can do it at home and weather won't effect you. But .22 practice gives you more effective feedback imo. But your overthinking things, set up a 1/2" dot on a piece of white paper at 50yds and go ape shit crazy practicing positional...

    Optic Manipulation

    I think it's application specific. If I'm shooting in a compromised position, non-prone, then I will use my support hand because I need to keep the rifle secure with my firing hand on the barricade and in my shoulder. If I'm shooting prone, then I see the benefit of using your firing hand as you...

    Elevation error builds as distance increases ...

    Have you tall target tested your scope for any tracking errors prior to the class? Sometimes scopes will track fine for the first 5-7 mils then start to build error. Also I've found that when using ballistic solvers to get pinpoint accuracy out past 1000yds all those little variables that others...

    New Shooter trying to decide

    This is spot on, with you being a new shooter and wanting to spend entire days at the range the 308 should get 1500-2500 more rounds on that barrel than the 6.5cm. The 6.5 has better ballistics and is a better 1000yd cartridge but If you are truly only shooting 500yds max then that negates that...

    Whats the point--CBTO and COAL and Magazine limits

    So I'm in the boat of loading to magazine length so max COAL/CBTO doesn't matter to me a ton as far as my final seating depth. But being a comp shooter, I burn barrels up yearly or sooner. So knowing the max COAL at certain round intervals helps me track throat erosion and barrel life. Typically...

    Favorite Chronograph Poll

    Magnetospeed 100%, no issues with misreads or not having it aimed at the target properly. Like said above, keep it on an mpa, mkm, tub, or wiser mount and it won't effect poi or harmonics.
