    Gunsmithing Chambering your own barrel.

    I cut barrels for myself, as I don't want to wait for someone else to do it. It's not crazy, if you can run a lathe, have access and time. I have made some terrible threads that shot fine. Understand it is possible you fuck up a nice barrel. So far I have not had an issue. Nice to start with an...

    Gunsmithing Prefit help

    No go guage is to make sure you can not get excessive headspace. For a precision rifle it is good to be tight on headspace, not anywhere near a no go. I use the go and a piece of tape to set on barrel nut installs and setting headspace on a shouldered barrel. A no go is a last chance don't use...

    POI Shift based on left vs. right side of mag feeding... Fudd Lore or something to solve?

    Really does sound like bullshit. If your rifle is not grouping, very unlikely the side of the mag the round came from is the issue.

    2k outta the box best bet

    Real close to an American rifle co or other custom action build at the 2500 mark. IMO better money spent stepping to that level.

    The Nebraska match just kicked up a post about having more stuff to raffle off than they have competitions. I wish I was closer.

    Shooting Gloves for Hunting in Cold, Wet, Windy Shitstorms?

    Cold eats your hands. Dexterity suffers. Keeping them dry goes a long way. Then out of the wind. Sub zero sucks, but so does 34 deg f, raining heavy, and wind. Don't run a light trigger (sub 12-16oz) and get good gloves. Ideally ones you can maintain positive control on your weapon and feel your...

    Shooting Gloves for Hunting in Cold, Wet, Windy Shitstorms?

    I have set Dakine waterproof gloves. They are thin enough to feel a 12 oz trigger, but waterproof. Mildly lame to use, but leaps and bounds above the no glove or bulky. If it is below freezing your glove options open up alot, just in that 33 degree range and raining sideways that sucks. Most...

    They just opened a class to shoot the match for half price, with any rifle. Should open it up to those upset about the .243

The rest of the series is also worth while. This is not exactly my method, but close...

    Masterpiece Arms Competition Side rails

    The Batwings do help with stability. They are a little unwieldy when moving to position, but the MPA is very close to the KRG now. I would give the edge to the MPA now, where before preferred the KRG. I will put the greyops weight on to balance, then I will shoot a match or 2 with it and see how...

    Masterpiece Arms Competition Side rails

    The gen 1 ckye pod and area 419 clamps both work. The RRS quick release only works in the cutout.

    Rifle Competition Events NRL Hunter series

    Can you run this match? 160 shooters. Would be an interesting idea to shoot, a stalk match. How would you keep people separated? Do you only do one engagement, or have multiple. If multiple you will need thousands of acres. If this is just an attempt to build less barricades, which I assure you...

    Rifle Competition Events NRL Hunter series

    This match does not practice all of the skills involved with hunting. It gets quality repitions on shot scenarios that no one ever gets to practice. If you want to practice hiking, you do not need a match. If you would like to work on alot of repitions of shots and position building, with...

    First “precision” rifle purchase

    Tikka is a good option. Or buy a used Ruger, should hit around the $800 mark. The lower end tikkas need stock upgrades, but are nice rifles. I would say pick up the used Ruger, then sell if you are hot on it, and go to something like the American rifle co 6.5 Creedmoor rifle. It's $2500 and...
