    Official (DTA) SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Thread

    And 2 weeks after getting the rifle, still shooting factory ammo (350 SMK), we shot this 8pt at 1100 yards, on the first shot. I LOVE this rifle.

    Official (DTA) SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Thread

    Nick - Yeah, I was there about 2 summers ago and you guys were there. I knew about the rifles from get-some-guns-and-ammo display rifles. I was highly interested. I had had my McMillan Tac-50 only about a year at that time. Somebody was shooting an HTI 50 and I was super impressed with...

    Best Range Finder Performer...Leica Geovid HD-B vs Swarovski EL Range vs Zeiss Victory RF

    Is anyone concerned that rangefinder technology may evolve faster than optics technology such that 5 years now you have top end glass binocs with outdated ranging circuitry inside? Is this a valid argument for having two separate pieces of kit?

    Please explain how a bullet can "go to sleep" and get more accurate at longer ranges?

    I asked this question because I was told it by a DTA person. I've got 100 or so rounds through mt DTA 375CT now. The DTA 352 CE shoots pretty good like 1 MOA, the CheyTac factory SMK shoots unbelievably well less than 0.5 MOA at 3150 FPS. BUT YESTERDAY I tried some of the CheyTac factory...

    Spotting Scope Carry and Case Suggestions?

    I've had 2 Swaros and a Zeiss. On the 80mm swaro, I had one of the cabelas neoprene cases. I decided that I didn't like it because when it rained, it held the water on the scope, and it was a PITA to take the cover off. I also reasoned that while in use on the tripod there was unlikely to be...

    2707 Yard 1.54mi shot!

    I think we agree, basically. Of course, those guys shooting those reported records need all things - range of the round, downrange performance, immediate or quick dope so the guys don't seek cover, etc. Either those reported records are from guys who have capabilities that we can't fathom, or...

    Range Report Ballistic AE .. what is it missing that you want..

    I went to shooter because I need a function for it to save my most recent defaults. And I run ballistics for multiple weapons on the same device. the favorites thing screws me up. I want to be able to pull up a load easily and have it resetted to my most recent inputted atmospheric...

    2707 Yard 1.54mi shot!

    Is this the video that "busts the myth"? .338 Lapua effective at 2707 Yards with SRS - YouTube No offense intended for some great shooting AND from a DTA HTI owner who believes in this rifle....but that video CONFIRMS the myth. Close only counts in Horse Shoes Hand Grenades and Nuclear War...

    Adjusting the cutting head on a Giraurd

    I hand chamfer a case inside and out so it's just like I want it. Then I push this down to align the cutter head and tighten the cutter head set screw. If you have hand chamfered the case evenly, it will align the cutter head evenly. Then you can adjust the depth of the aligned cutter head. I...

    BTW if it's even remotely possible that you will use 50 BMG or 408 CT or whatever some day, get the Max-50 trimmer from Doug.

    giraud trimmer

    The Giraud is badass and worth every penny. I had the Gracey before it. It SUCKED. It is true that they tend to sit for months on end and then get a flurry of use - kinda like a chainsaw. If you were here in Utah, you could use mine (even though grandad used to say "never lend out a...

    Kestrel's Barometric pressure, do you need to "true" it each day of use?

    Yes the bullet cares about the pressure of the air where you are, uncorrected - the absolute pressure that the instrument measures. It could give a damn what the pressure is at sea level or on everest or underneath the ocean or on the moon. That's for the meteorologists. The bullet also cares...
