    DeLane Development Group Rimfire Ventures

    I downloaded the new profiles. I used the custom curve data. This could be real nice to get more accurate DOPE for stretching out this caliber in the future. I really like using my Kestrel for centerfire and find the DOPE very accurate once dialed in correctly.

    I was just told by a friend that his Kestrel has a new bullet profile using Lapua Center X and Midas. It references using a Vudoo 16" barreled action for the DOPE. I'll need to fire up my Kestrel later to check it out.

    Thoughts on ruger sr22?

    No, it is a complete new pistol. It is the 22lr version of their full size pistol in 9mm and 40SW. The original intent was as a lower cost trainer for their full size pistols. This is a real pistol and not a 22 plinker. Reliable and accurate with most brands of ammo. Mine is flawless with...

    DeLane Development Group Rimfire Ventures

    Right at 1lb. I want to be able to feel the trigger and choose when to break it. Anything lighter while trying to get into or hold a position and also dtertermine when to fire is too difficult. Too many things going on at the same time. 1lb still breaks fine without influencing the rifle or POA.

    22 match ammo. Is lapua. Wolf and sk made at the same place. Pics below

    Shooting 25y will tell you next to nothing about your ammo or rig. Shooting 50y starts to give you a little basic information about your rig and what type of consistency and accuracy it is capable of producing. Shooting 100y though gives you a good insight of the total package. 100y will also...

    WTF! This is apparently why I don't clean rifles...

    Read that article, it explains the carbon ring well. I use Boretech (or any GOOD carbon cleaner) and scrub the chamber and immediately ahead of it with 10-12 passes with a nylon brush and then VFG pellets or dry patch over the nylon bruush until the muzzle is clean. I also follow his method for...

    Which Chassis for CZ 455 16" Tacticool? KRG/XLR, MPA, MDT, McRees?

    Check out the MPA BA Lite. Perfect chassis for a 22lr.

    WTF! This is apparently why I don't clean rifles...

    Check action torque and scrub the chamber and throat with a nylon brush a bunch to make sure you don't have a carbon ring issue.

    22 match ammo. Is lapua. Wolf and sk made at the same place. Pics below

    SK Rifle Match has been my go too ammo for matches this past year. I've only stepped up past that to Lapua Center X and the results were the same so no reason to spend the extra so far. I'm just getting ready to start stretching things out past 200y so I'll revisit that for longer distances.

    Rifle Scopes Advantages of floating center dot vs. solid crosshair reticle

    Reticles are like underwear choices. You need to spend a little time wearing them and you'll easily feel what you are comfortable with. I personally like the way a small dot or x on the center of the reticle and then the open area around it before the solid crosshairs start. It makes it easier...

    Timney Triggers in your Rimfire

    When I ordered our Vudoos I got Calvin Elites in both of them. It is a real nice trigger in every way. I went with single stage in both.

    Accurizing an off the rack rim-fire

    I worked on a Ruger 10/22, 2 Kidd 10/22's and a Ruger RPR. After a year of mixed results and folly I sold 1 Kidd, the RPR and have the Ruger Target rifle up for sale. I bought 1 Vudoo for my wife and have my Vudoo on order now. Looking back I obtained a good education on the platform and process...

    22 match ammo. Is lapua. Wolf and sk made at the same place. Pics below

    Welcome to the nether world that is 22lr. I saw the same thing a year ago and had the same questions. From the reading I've done I've concluded that the Lapua, SK and Wolf 22lr ammo is all made in the same facility. The Lapua is made on a separate line from the SK and Wolf. After the ammunition...

    Ruger Precision Rimfire

    It could just be that it is what it is, a 1.5 to 2moa rifle. The only reason that anyone is expecting anything more out of the factory rifle is the track record of it's centerfire brothers and that Ruger decided to capitalize on that name and reputation. I own 2 RPR's and bought an RPRF right...

    What zero is everyone using for their 22LR?

    I zero at 50y because it is the most common distance I shoot between BR and NRL22 matches. Even if that wasn't the case it would probably be my choice as it is very functional in the types of shooting that I enjoy.

    Ruger Precision Rimfire

    I've used a Tipton Universal Guide for many rifles over the years. Just don't be an animal on the cleaning rod and everything is OK. I also switched to a nylon brush years ago. I use Boresmith Triangle patches on the brush for my wet and dry patches. Itgets into every little corner of the bore...

    Ruger 10/22 first shot issues

    1st round fliers in the 10/22 is all too common. A few of us have seen the same thing a bunch of times. We've played with everything there was to play with and just gotten more frustrated. There are just to many factors that cause slight issues such as action torque settings, mag feed angles...

    Tell me about it. I ordered the same basic setup for myself with a black MPA chassis with a cobalt grey metallic Ceracoat barreled action. A friend ordered the same with a burnt bronze chassis and black barreled action. We have multiple other friends waiting to see a rifle in the wild 1st. These...

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

    Measure the outside of the widest part of the group and subtract 1 bullet diameter(actually 2 halves of a bullet diameter). If I read your caliper correctly it should be: .71 minus .224 equals .486 center to center.
