    Range Report Done with Hornady tipped bullets....?

    Wow. I didn't expect this to devolve into a OCW thread. I definitely think the OCW has merit; I use a combo ladder/OCW (Same point of aim but multiple rounds round robin) looking for same POI (group center, not group size per se) and same rough shape (usually flat shape). I'm looking to two...

    Range Report Done with Hornady tipped bullets....?

    So I got a chance to run my Berger 140 Hybrid load directly against the 140 ELD load at 700 and 1056yds in a 7-8mph full value wind. At distances to 400-500 the ELDs hold tighter groups than Berger's (.3-.5 vs .4-.6) and better SD/ES (7/21 vs 10/30). But as you move past 500, that changes...

    Range Report Done with Hornady tipped bullets....?

    I have 300ish 140 Elds left but i had less luck with the RDFS than the 140 ELDs. At least the BC on the RDFs was consistent though! Never ventured into the 147s. I think Hornady can make a good bullet BUT: They must be 100 count boxes or bullets get deformed. The 2000 count boxes get...

    Range Report Done with Hornady tipped bullets....?

    So I finally had my last straw with tipped bullets. Specifically, Hornady, but I'm not likely to go back to anything with a polymer tip for the appreciable future. Quick version: 223s they shoot great at 100, 200 and with 6.5s even 400-600yds. But small lot-to-lot ogive/BTO variation...

    Mechanics of shooting bolt vs. semi

    Mechanics/fundamentals between bolt gun and semis are slightly different in terms of focus. Semiautos have different physics involved that require much better fundamentals: sear break to firing pin hits primer, different physics of rotational hammer to strike firing pin barrel time and bolt...

    WTS/WTT: Match 223, 224 Valkyrie and 6.5CM Precision rifles

    Cleaning out safe to fund some new projects! Have 4 rifles up for grabs. Each rifle has numerous threads with groups and load development from these rifles so there is long history to back up each rifles precision. But they are priced to move. All of them are hammers; I simply don't shoot...

    I've been wondering the same thing. Lol. Had several offers but too low or trades for something that I'm not interested in.

    Confused with my dope today

    @Dski48 Need to add: make sure your berm at 100 stops shots 40-50" higher than poi or you'll be sending rounds into the stratosphere and neighboring properties. Easy to forget when we are just shooting at 100yds...
