    New MPA PMR Pro 6.5CM

    Should be a good rifle. This may be a Ford vs. Chevy thing but I personally much prefer the Vortex EBR 7C reticle over any Tremor reticle. I have a scope with a Tremor2 reticle and it's in the box because I don't like the reticle.

    Spotters Post your Spotting scope images!

    I know that of course:) but my guess of some kind of Vectronix was spot on

    Nice!! Nothing like $15,000 for outstanding glass and range finding.

    Serge, what spotting scope is that image through?? If I had to guess I would guess a Vectronix but not a Terrapin or Terrapin X. Maybe a PLRF-25?

    Spotters Spotting Scope With MRAD Reticle

    I've been using a Leupold Mk IV 12-40 with TMR reticle for many years, it is a compact package with decent glass and the reticle is useful without blocking too much of the field of view. They sometimes go on sale at like Black Friday for very good prices. The glass as I said is decent, actually...

    Shoulder Bump - what am I doing wrong?

    @MtnCreek I think you misreading the numbers. It looks like the 2nd photo is of his case gauge before resizing and the 3rd is after resizing and it shows he's bumped the shoulder back a tad more than 3 thousandths, which is fine. As for the dents in the shoulder, they are usually caused by 1)...

    Precision Rifle Gear RRS vs Leupold vs Vortex

    Here's something I posted a while back about why I ended up with a RRS tripod: My first tripod I tried to use for shooting was an aluminum Manfrotto with a camera ballhead that I put a Hogsaddle on. The legs flexed so much that I could make it work but to shoot well off that tripod was really...

    Help me not hate my RRS Anvil 30

    I'm trying to figure out how your Anvil 30 latch isn't locking up tight because I have dovetail mounts from Area 419, HRD, KRG, MPA chassis, and camera mounts from Sunwayfoto, to no name mounts from Amazon and they all lock up tight. Are you rotating the latch 180 degrees from full unlock to...

    Need barrel help

    Don't worry about bullet jump unless you are shooting VLD bullets. Bullets like the 175 Sierra Match King shoot very well with a ton of bullet jump to the lands. I'd just load them to mag length, 2.80" and be done with it. See this article about testing done by Mark Gordon of Short Action...

    Training Courses SnipersHide 3-Day - San Diego - Feb. 23-25, '21

    It's CA law that bans possession of suppressors, not the Pala range rules. I've seen suppressors at our Pala matches, but they were owned by FFL 07 holders with SOTs.

    Not a reload... but needs some expertise

    The primer doesn't look overpressure, but excessive headspace would have caused a case head separation and gas venting but it wouldn't have sheared the lugs off the bolt head would it? The sheared lugs look like way excessive overpressure doesn't it? Normally dangerously overpressure rounds...

    RCBS X-die

    I have and use them but found that they don't do a very good job of reducing case length growth. I followed instructions, trimmed the whole batch to uniform length, then put a trimmed, lubed case in the die and then screwed the decap/expander/mandrel stem down until it contacted the case, locked...

    Imr4451 vs h4350 6.5cm

    In my rifles when my load development went up to 42.5 gr. of 4451, my primers were still ok but they were getting pretty flat and my accuracy at 42.5 of 4451 was not as good, so I backed off to 41.8 grains. The curve of powder charge vs. velocity also was flatter at 41.8 grains indicating more...

    Imr4451 vs h4350 6.5cm

    When I worked up IMR 4451 loads I think I started around 40.0 grains and worked up from there.

    Imr4451 vs h4350 6.5cm

    Shooting Hornady 140 ELDMs, my H4350 load was Hornady case, CCI BR2, 42.5 grains of H4350 giving excellent accuracy and about 2820 fps in a 24" Rock Creek barrel. My IMR 4451 load was the same bullet, case, and primer, 41.8 grains of IMR 4451 giving about 2700 fps and excellent accuracy. So...

    POLL: Most comfortable Stock or Chassis for YOU?

    For PRS type shooting, the Manners TCS is my favorite stock. For a more hunting type stock, I've got a Manners T2AGAP that would also work well (except for the red, white, & blue Americana finish!) I'm thinking that one of these days I might have to try the ARC Xylo, it looks really interesting.
