    Why can't ballistic apps account for lighting conditions and mirage?

    Place a spotting scope with reticle at a target early in the morning with no mirage, come back later In the day and see what the actual mirage shift is, then as night falls and mirage dies off, your reticle should go back to the original point of aim. Fun to watch how much the mirage is...

    37XC build

    Reminds me of the phrase... “we screw the next guy and pass the savings on to you!” I love when companies call a group in the small community they sell to asshats. I might be an assHat, but I do know my $ for bullets will stay west of the Mississippi. Did you know the bullet makers west of...

    Gunsmithing Is K&P rifle barrels still in business?

    I live an hour north of Milwaukee Wi.. (barrel maker central) I buy all my barrels from Ken for good reason. One of the coolest, most knowledgeable guys I know. Ken is in full swing out in Rapid and busy as ever. If you get a voice mail leave a message of what you need/want, he will get back to you.

    SAKO TRG-22

    Desert Tech HTI barrel extensions.......

    It sure would be nice to know how to identify extensions as authentic DTA or aftermarket. DTA claimed that there is an aftermarket company making extensions.. anyone know where to get an aftermarket bolt and extension? Seems like a lot of liability and work to copy.

    Muzzle blast shield for 50 BMG, anybody?

    haha, one of mine has a 22” barrel with an armalite brake. Like you said recoil is light, the concussion is just a riot.

    Plugs and muffs in the ears and close your trap when you squeeze the bang switch.

    Deciding on my ELR rifle build.

    Do you like to move a big rifle around or a small rifle? I really like my Armalite with a stack of barrels from 416 to 460 to 50. On the other hand I really like my trg42 with a 300norma improved, 338 lapua and 338rogue barrels... why have just one rifle to confuse yourself with? Lol Like...

    Field Firing Solutions and Terrapin X

    If the dongle is a Bluetooth Lte module, would you think about communicating with a new Kestrel meter too? The 4500’s are gone and at some point my 4500bt will die. Keeping FFS relevant with modern hardware is awesome, keep up the work.

    Gunsmithing Can I use my shop press for a barrel vise?

    By the biggest dude in Finland!! I too use a hydraulic press, v blocks and a phone book. Not one tikka or sako trg that I’ve had to cut apart to remove the barrel.

    Hornady 375 cal 390 grain A-TIP G7 .497

    If they shoot like the 230’s do they won’t suck. Looking forward to the 416 version. The published G1 for the 230 has been spot on out to 1200yds. A good comparison is to see how the G1 compares to the 4dof program. Hard to lie about a G1 when it has to follow the radar.

    SAKO TRG-22

    Good choice! My 22 was one of the original eurooptic 260rem specials. It’s had 3 260 rem barrels on it and a 22-250 barrel. Love that rifle.
