    Range Report Magnetospeed question

    The electronics are also much faster on the V3. The Sporter needs a lot more time (10 seconds?) between shots before it is ready to record the next round. I've never timed how long is needed but I have missed capturing data because I fired before the Sporter was ready.

    Speed gain

    This is almost identical to my 140 gr load testing last weekend. I had good initial results working up to 42.6 gr and 42.9 gr so I settled on 42.7 (expected 2850-2860 fps) for seating dept testing. All my five shot groups were terrible at nearly 2 MOA. I needed to work in a new powder jug and...

    PSA berger 140 hybrids

    They started showing up in my local stores a month or so ago. The online price looks good if buying in bulk.

    Determining wind direction (using Kestrel)

    Kestrel has a short video on setting wind direction. The basic concept is to turn away from the wind until the impeller stops which will be 90 degrees off the wind direction. Then turn back 90 degrees and take the measurement.

    Hunting & Fishing Laser range finder for hunting conditions

    Not sure where your budget cut off point is but I picked up the Cabelas version 2200LRH on sale for about $325 last winter. I have seen it on sale a couple times since then. As far as I could tell it was the same as the 2200MR but with a circle reticle vs the MIL reticle. It reliably hits to...

    Hunting & Fishing KUIU vs First Lite & your layers

    I really like the FL merino base layers and haven't changed since trying them years ago. I also run the Kuiu attack pants and again haven't changed for years. I have a mix of mid layers and haven't found one to be better than the other. My layering is normally FL merino top and shorts...

    Building a RAP - Bad idea?

    For the PRS game you are better off with something like CTR or RPR or HMR in my opinion. I used a RAP for a few months when I started playing in local PRS style matches. The rifle was very accurate and relatively easy to shoot but it wasn’t suited to PRS game. You will either need to accept...

    PRS Talk Barricade Stop Rodeo

    The best MPA accessory in my opinion is the RAT bipod adaptor. Make sure you get that. The standard barricade stop works well without modification in space confined position like a window or portal that you can lean into. I have seen people add some sort of sticky rubber tape layer to the...

    WA matches

    Follow the club series (PNW) link on the PRS website. Sometimes is it slow to update events but there are a few listed now. There are also a few facebook pages like NWPRL and others that seem to have more detail. I try to stay away from facebook so I don't have specific links.

    Episodes 66-67 bipod too short?

    There were several mentions of guys using too short of a bipod in the Alaska precision training classes specifically that the 6-9 was too short and the 9-13 on higher settings provided a better shooting position. Is there more context to the statements because it seems strange and uncomfortable...

    Hunting & Fishing Day Hunting weight

    My pack is normally 15-16 pounds when deer hunting (PNW) plus 7 or so pounds of rifle. Elk hunting is normally a few more pounds in the pack plus a muzzle loader that feels like 10 pounds.

    Magneto Speed Alternate Mounting Options effectiveness.

    I use the MPA Magnetospeed adapter which mounts to the chassis. When using the MPA mount there is no point of impact change on my gun. I have also used the MS on barrel and there a slight POI change high and left for my gun.

    Field Matches

    How is a field match different than a PRS match? I know field matches descriptions say something to the effect of hunting or tactical shooting conditions. I assume that means more prone shooting or off large natural props vs a barricade and over the hood of an abandoned car?

    I wouldn't waste your time on it. I watched the whole thing but wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

    What data is everyone using in their kestrel 5700 for the 130gr PRIME 6.5cm

    I've only had the Kestrel for a few months. Previously I used the AB app on my phone which worked fine when I was near the weather stations and had good cell signal. A couple matches I go to have limited cell coverage so the Kestrel fills that void for me.
