    6X5 SHOOTERS I WOULD LIKE YOUR INPUT PLEASE...

    Don't know that I have a strong opinion on the methodology. But if the desire is keeping people consistent and honest, make it a two measurement system. That is, measure each group OTO and subtract .221, then do the approximate CTC,or your favorite app. I think some would find it interesting...

    Dumb question. How do confirm we're shooting something that's produced north of one million rounds?

    rimfire Tuner / Harrell

    Orkan nails it. My M12 is a great shooting rifle that is better because of the tuner. If you want proof, go look at the 6x5 thread. .57" average for 6 - 5 shot groups at 100 yards and best 100 yard group .31". Because of the tuner, I know my rifle will shoot Eley match in the 1060-1065...

    rimfire Tuner / Harrell

    Nope, I'm pretty sure the tuner on my H&R M12 results in a reduction of .1-.2" at 100 yards. To your RimX comment, I have a Vudoo, an Anschutz 1827 and 2007/2013, Winchester 52's, Sako and more. As I stated, they'll all shoot sub inch at 100. But if you're trying to wring every bit of...

    What size plates at 300 yards

    JAIA, I've seen your body of work. It's impressive and has helped to provide me a starting point when looking at velocities and consistency of ammo. What I'm curious about with your rifle is, at what velocity does your CZ produce the best accuracy? As I've tested, I've seen interesting...

    rimfire Tuner / Harrell

    I used the same methodology with my H&R model 12. One component not discussed is the velocity of ammo (@RAVAGE88 has discussed this with his fast twist barrel sorcery) While I have no scientific data to back it up, barrel length, bullet dwell time, and the node created by those variables is...

    What size plates at 300 yards

    Testing seems to be where it's at. Dialing a rifle in to the velocity it prefers, and then finding an ammo that is consistent at that velocity is the art. The tough part for .22's is many manufacturers don't post individual lot velocities. Eley does this with their higher end ammo, and I've...

    Long(er) Range .22RF Shooting

    Vudoo is well on their way with twist rate testing. I'm curious what solid copper will do to barrel life, and what the cost will be for the ELR .22 round. If they can keep the price in the range of top end Eley/SK ammo there's a chance for it to succeed. If not, I'm not so certain.

    Lithgow la101 vs cz mtr

    What's the price range on CCI and SK in Australia? Personally I've not had the success with CCI that I've had will SK. SK has always been the better value. As to EOD Dave's comment on a Vudoo shooting cheap ammo well, I've had good success with my Vudoo using Geco Rifle. Yes it has...

    Lithgow la101 vs cz mtr

    I can't speak to the 101, but my MTR is shooting fairly well with SK Biathlon, as does my Vudoo V22. I don't know what aftermarket support is like for the 101 in Australia, but the CZ has a strong aftermarket support structure here in the states. So, I'd pick based on what you want to do with...
