    Boyds Pro Varmint reccomdations?

    Mmmm see personally, I will never have a metal stock on a rifle, especially alloy as it doesnt absorb vibration, in fact it can amplify it. But in most rifles it wont be noticed. Only when shooting BR/F-Class will you notice it in rifle tune. But will if effect a rimfire?? I dont know. I have...

    Boyds Pro Varmint reccomdations?

    If you run a bag rider for the forend, it will work fine if you have 3in wide front bags. The back end is ok for a normal 1/2in wide ear spacing. What level of accuracy are you chasing?

    Jbell, I've been wondering about that myself. I did use the formula on the target that I used the first time. I'll have a look at it. What formula do you use?

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

    Ok, I promise this is the last 6x5 for me for well, 2 weeks while im at work. You guys have re kindled my love of shooting 22's. Thanks. Only issue now is that I have to find some more of this lot of SK Rifle Match. I shot 5x 6x5 Targets overall. 2x at 50m and 2x at 100m and 1x at 50m off my...

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

    I've been thinking that. It was hard enough to find a reasonable stock for this Match 64 let alone track down a new trigger. And the stock is still a Boyds that's been bedded after all aswell. At least I can always find a Rem 700 spec trigger. Sure cant find stuff for Anschutz 64's here in...

    I agree there. I wasn't expecting it. But that large Centre X group blew the average very out by a large margin. At 25m the Centre X drills it. Certainly tighter then SK. I'm not going to shoot the Centre X again until I have the new trigger. I also changed shooting position today from straight...

    Nice work mate. The V22S looks like its shooting good. All these V22 builds have me considering one to replace my Anschutz 64. But just unsure if it will agg better overall. I shot another 2x 6x5 today. One with SK Rifle Match and 2nd with Centre X. The groups are mainly wide as this 5094...

    rimfire Tuner / Harrell

    This has been a interesting thread. I've been working at making my own rimfire tuner suited to hunting, field competition and PRS/NRL22. Will see how I go and compare it to your results guys.

    Yes but if you tune further out, you bring the bullets in closer together the further out you shoot. So by testing at longer ranges, you improve your vertical. Where as testing at 100 it makes it worse the further you go. Thats what Im saying. Look at the trend trend in the table. Distance...

    http://varmintal.com/aeste.htm This website is very good at modelling and explaining this stuff. Scroll down the bottom and read the long range tune paragraph. It explains what I'm saying with the help of trajectory graph and calculated drop.

    EC tuner brake

    Yes, but positively compensating at longer ranges means that the further you go out, the closer the fast and slow bullets get in trajectory due to the positive compensation. So theoretically, the rifle shoots the worst its going to at short range and gets better the further you shoot. Which to...

    EC tuner brake

    Dthomas, It can happen when the bullet exit timing is off. Bullets can be perfect, velocity and ES good and exit timing can have the bullets exiting at the top of the upswing or on the downswing of the barrels whip instead of at the bottom of the upswing which is where you would want it. Thats...

    A As I said mate. We will agree to disagree. Im not going to attack you for what you believe. We both have different understandings of what is and how positive compensation is applied. You also have no idea how good or bad a shooter I am so you cant say whether or not the shooter fell...

    Yeah thats the way I've been doing it. No dramas mate. I was just wondering if there was an accepted method. Im already doing it the same way as you anyway. This thread has made me shoot more rounds thru my 22 in a week then the last 3 months combined. I love it. Thanks.

    EC tuner brake

    I will agree that PRS guys dont need 1/4MOA precision from their rifles that us F-Class guys want/need. But you will increase your hit probability if your close to it. But I dont agree you burn up alot of extra time chasing it if you understand what your cartridge wants to be given to work well...

    Dthomass, Well, my ES was sub 20s, labradar was on the whole time. I was using Bergers which I had sorted into 2 thou lots for OAL. And my gun handling was good and felt no bad shots. When I say went to shit, I'm talking going from sub 1/2moa vertical to 1moa which is enough to loose points to...
