    Which rifle rest (front & rear)?

    What laseredge said. You don’t need a special front rest. If you want to shoot off a barricade then a bag upfront is very helpful, but if you’re shooting prone or from a bench a rear bag and a bipod is all you need. Just load the bipod, position and squeeze the bag to adjust your POA, and let...

    Why are MOA guys the slowest?

    If there was ever any seriousness in this thread, its because the numbers are smallerer for people like me who are more simplerer, which makes is more faster. Even with MOA/MOA or Mil/Mil with FFP and matching reticles, both of which are viable, just seems like keeping things simple and small...

    Rifle Scopes MOA vs Mil.

    While I concur, the way this shit gets out of hand is hilarious.

    They're really harping on the federal workers not getting paid.

    Back to the point of OP, I think it's incredibly ironic how much the uber government loving media harps on this considering this is what the US will be like if our government keeps expanding it's influence into our private lives. Right now the only reason they hate Trump and Republicans is...

    Rifle Scopes current state of the Steiner T5Xi 3-15 - now (M5Xi vs. Tango6 Gen2 vs. Nightforce F1 4-16)

    While your opinion of the T5 series is probably already formed I think you would do well to reconsider it if you’re ever looking another optic and don’t want to spend $2K+. Most can be had for $1250-$1500 and on the whole they’re hard to beat from a scope for the money standpoint. I’ve spent a...

    Your thoughts on K&P barrels

    I have one in 6.5 Creed and one in 6mm Comp on the way. The 6.5 has been extremely consistent. It’s an 18.5” medium Palma. Here are some pictures of some load development at 300 yards. All of these groups were shot ~ 30s-1 minute apart in succession off a bipod with a rear bag. This was after I...

    Range Report Shot groups off bipod..???

    Another thing you can do after you true velocity at 500 is stretch it out to 800 and true your BC. I haven’t done this yet since the BCs from Berger and Hornady have been really close for me out to 1000, but I probably will from here on out to make things even more precise.

    Range Report Shot groups off bipod..???

    Not to highjack the thread, but you might find this valuable since you asked about it. I do my charge weight testing in 3 shot groups. Used to do 5 routinely but not anymore. First thing I do is shoot one round of each charge weight over my magnetospeed to identify velocity nodes. Then, within...

    Most valuable piece of equipment you have purchased

    After the rifle I’d say the next most critical component is ammo...just can’t shoot at all without ammo...but in all seriousness it’s hard to narrow it down to a single thing. -Magnetospeed -Good rangefinder -Ballistic calculator -Steel to shoot at -Rear bag -Reloading equipment -Place to...

    Diy cheekrest

    Not to highjack the thread but I used the vet wrap and pad of choice deal for about 2 years, it worked pretty well. The only 3 things that I didn’t love about it was that 1) if I ever needed to clean my rifle I had to take the whole deal down. While $3 for vet wrap is pretty cheap if I didn’t...

    MPA chassis, play in recoil pad assembly?

    Was going to say after you started this post that I decided to put a drop of loctite 609 (green) at the junction of the rod and chassis. Let capillary action draw it into the joint. Stood it up in the safe overnight, and now it’s locked up tight. Perfect. Glad to hear the red worked as well.

    Anyone using Alpha Munitions 6.5 brass?

    The brass is very consistent, but you absolutely need to back off your loads by probably 1gr or more. It’s robust enough that you will likely only see ejector swipes and a small amount of primer cratering when you’re way over pressure...like for the 1st one or two firings. Then at the 2nd or...

    MPA chassis, play in recoil pad assembly?

    Mine is the same. Initially I was annoyed by it, but now I’ve totally forgotten about it. I was going to just Rocksett or Devon them in place since they should never come out anyway and that would probably take care of it.

    6.5 Grendel more or less dead?

    I haven’t shot a ton of stuff with mine, but what I have I’ve been sufficiently impressed with its ability to put game on the ground. The last was a 4x4 muley at just over 400 yards. Did fine. Furthermore, at least in a gas gun, the awesome fact of the matter is that your follow up shots are...
