    Customer Accuracy Expectations

    Right about here, ish… These would be the absolute max for average group size at 50 yards, I actually expect better with very good ammo (not necessarily stringently lot tested for that rifle) in perfect conditions. At 100 yards 0.7-0.8/0.85 inch is about what I expect. Beyond that I don’t care...

    Not sure if this classifies as vintage but it's a Stey SSG 69 PII

    Very cool rifle! They usually are excellent shooters.

    I am pretty sure you made a video addressing this way back when. I feel like early on there was issues with feeding that blamed the magazine, then it died out after that video. But I have found this is a critical step for the 100% reliability I have experienced with the 6-7 different barreled...

    I wish I had kept this rifle now. My damn gun ADD pisses me off sometimes....

    Aero Solus stock barrel change is absolute war

    On a more serious note. For those struggling to get a vise to hold a barrel (really for everyone using a vise) in addition to a cardboard or leather style shim make sure you lubricate your fasteners on the vise!!! Not only will it increase your clamping force but it will also prevent galling...

    Firearms Sig Sauer SSG 3000 + Unicorn Sig Chassis

    That is a rare bird! I tried to scrounge one of these chassis up back when Sig had one at SHOT many years ago. Very cool rifle! The SSG3000 is very underrated.

    A Bad shot in the first group and one in the last really killed the group size but I am happy with the wind hold today. Score: 2.808 Username: jbell State: Arkansas Rifle: V-22 Caliber: 22lr Ammo: Center X

    DPG Action Extraction Update.......Getting closer to production every day.....

    I am thinking the same thing. Maybe it difficult to tell from the video and pictures. I see this uses a puller and a pusher design like most other less the Rim X. The only real difference I see is a tighter grip on the case rim by the extractor vs most others. I am definitely interested in...

    Aero Solus stock barrel change is absolute war

    Did you or anyone try a quick snap of pressure (with the action wrench already having a little torque applied to it) vs slow steady pressure? Normally that is the trick. If that fails a brass hammer tapping on the action. Shock / vibration is very helpful to break tight parting surfaces free.

    Ahhh, my mistake. I thought it was in reference to demanding in terms of more precision. I will see myself to the door…

    Yep and some Anschutz and Feinwerkbau also. I always enjoyed watching Sergei Martynov shoot his 1813 wood stock with a canvas sling. He usually made it into the elimination round and occasionally won World Cup matches. There is a story where he won a match and was not at the medal ceremony...

    Sniper's Hide 50yd Challenge Rimfire Edition 🎯

    Currently I have a Leupold MK4HD 6-24 MIL PR2 reticle. I really like the scope but hate the reticle. That is a personal thing, I just don’t like open center dot style reticles. The subtensions are great, no complaints there. I just have issues with precision holds with the dot, it is that way...

    The Bottle Base Challenge

    This reminds me of another bottle shooting challenge. Fill a 2 liter with water and put the cap on a turn or two, but not tight. The goal is to just graze the right side of the cap so it spins up and off the bottle.

    I'm right there with you on this. I shoot long gun right hand with my right eye and a handgun left handed with my left eye. I shoot with both eyes open and an right eye dominant. I don't know why but I have been doing it that way for as long as I can remember. Transitions from long gun to...

    Slight improvement today, cold bore was the same as yesterday @ 10 O'clock. I sure wish I didn't have that one round on the first group target. I'm pretty sure it was the first shot of the string Score: 4.601 Username: jbell State: Arkansas Rifle: V-22 Caliber: 22lr Ammo: Center X
