    extreme precise powder measurement worth the cost?

    Re: extreme precise powder measurement worth the cost? I have not shot in F-Class competition, and I am sure that those who do are using techniques that work. I note that John Whidden has loaded his Palma ammunition using the progressive system except for weighing his powder charges...

    extreme precise powder measurement worth the cost?

    Re: extreme precise powder measurement worth the cost? My point for the OP is that accurate ammunition can be loaded without spending beaucoup bucks on extremely sensitive equipment for weighing charges. I think a better approach is to practice shooting decent, safe ammunition until the...

    Going to pick up supplies, whats first?

    Re: Going to pick up supplies, whats first? Powder Valley is a good place to start for powder, primers and bullets. I have had good success with CCI, Winchester, Remington and Federal primers of the standard variety in .308. Varget is a good choice of powder. I have also had good luck in...

    What about these CCI BLAZER BULK groups? "100yrd"

    Re: What about these CCI BLAZER BULK groups? Blazers usually shoot a little under .5 inches at 50 yards from my Savage Mark II. A real interesting phenomenon I have noticed several times is that Blazers will shoot a very small 5-shot group if shot immediately after SK Plus or other higher...

    Max magnification for hunting

    Re: Max magnification for hunting True. The SS glass is noticeably better, but the Tasco still gets the job done for those on a more limited budget.

    Max magnification for hunting

    Re: Max magnification for hunting I have the SWFA SS 10x. It has a wide enough field to pick up game at fairly close range, but enough power for some long range shots. On one of my .22LRs, I have the Tasco 2.5-10x Varmint/Target mil dot scope with AO. I regularly use it beyond 100 yards...

    remington 597

    Re: remington 597 I have a Remington 597. I replaced the heavy factory trigger with Volquartsen Target Hammer that I bought from Midway for $40, and added cheap scope. It has no problem shooting 1" at 50 yards with CCI Blazers, and has done much better than that with SK Standard Plus. My...

    MOA at 100 yards is it possible with a 22lr?

    Re: MOA at 100 yards is it possible with a 22lr? I personally don't know anyone who has given up shooting altogether because a given firearm did not live up to its billing on the internet. On the other hand, I know a lot of shooters (myself included) who have traded away or put a lot of...

    Fieldcraft GPS and false readings

    A few years ago, my sons and I were hunting in the Kaibab area of Arizona. We had with us a new GPS unit, a Garmin E-trex Legend HCX. It seemed to be working normally. Finding a location that seemed promising for deer, I paused to input a waypoint. That's when I noticed that the map screen...
