    Anyone here with a real fast twist 22lr?

    I got my 1:9 Lilja barrel, but have only had the opportunity to shoot at 50/100yds. At that range, accuracy is pretty close to my standard twist Krieger barrel, with the Krieger maybe having a slight edge. Now that the holidays are over, I am hoping to get to shoot it at longer distances. I...

    Lapua Testing - Midas vs Center-X

    While I believe that Midas+ is generally graded better than CenterX, your results may differ depending on what lots are available at the time of testing. When I sent my gun to the test center about a year ago, the two best performing lots were CenterX, and they outperformed the lots of Midas+...

    Fx120 and v3 auto trickler help

    I’ve ordered spare cables a couple of times and they always shipped quickly. My guess is that he is just out of stock and you will get them when he has parts and they get built. You could always make your own, just use the connectors on the broken one and re-wire. But you need nimble fingers...

    Best trigger for PRS style shooting

    Personal preference. But personally I like the 2-stage, especially for awkward positions. I just like to feel the take up and be able to give it the last bit of pressure when the crosshairs get to the right place. But as you said, it needs to be heavy enough to avoid an accidental trip.

    New Labradar App now available

    I’ve used it a couple times since the update. It seems like it doesn’t the connection when the phone sleeps, but the armed/disarmed can get out of sync and then it gets stuck. If you manually hit the button on the Labradar unit to make it the same status as hwon on the phone, it seems to...

    Weird, the new version is showing up on my iPad, but not my iPhone.

    Precision Rifle Gear ARCA bag options

    I used the rail changer with the small game changer for a while, and it worked pretty well. But I switched to using a gray ops mini plate with a schmedium game changer attached and like it a lot better (but it is heavy)

    AR Dedicated.22LR and accuracy?

    I had a Compass Lake upper years ago. It shot great, very accurate, but it used the old magazines that you insert into AR mags. I had regular feeding problems with them, could never seem to get them right. Not sure if they are using that same system now or not. I now have a JP 22 upper that...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Colt 1911Commemorative European Theater

    I agree, but even still there are thousands of people in line to get them and pay those prices.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Colt 1911Commemorative European Theater

    One other point of comparison: CMP is currently selling WWII 1911s for $850 n(rack garde) to $1050 (service grade. These are pieces that were used and cab be anything from beat up to repaired, probably will not have matching frames/slides and limited collector value (although there are some...

    Bullet Drop app questions

    I do it from the center of the scope (turrets), but honestly I'm not sure if that is technically correct.

    Here's my F@#K YOU to Fedex

    Me too. I was supposed to receive a newly re-barreled action and extra barrel Tuesday. Then it was supposed to get here yesterday. Yesterday it it kind of disappeared from the system. Now it is showing as being a couple hours north of me, no estimated delivery date. That is not my worst...

    Bullet Drop app questions

    Shoot at the distances you are interested in, record the info, then play with velocity and BC until you get output that fits your actual results. Bear in mind that environmentals have a more significant effect on rimfire than on centerfire. And make sure you have good data on your rifle...

    Ckye pod double pull. Is it applicable?

    I stopped carrying a regular bipod for hunting because I could almost never use it, and in the situations where I could, my pack worked nearly as well. I got one of the triple Pulls and decided it was too big; Not enough weight/size savings to replace my tripod (which is much more stable and...

    New Hornady 109gr 6mm ELD-M

    These look like a great lower cost substitute for the 110 Atip. One big questions is what kind of tolerances they hold. One of the great things about the ATips is that the measurements are very low variation, no need to match lots, sort or make adjustments from lot to lot. While I expect a...

    Zermatt medium actions

    I have a 6.5 PRC in a short action. It works, but a little more length would have been useful for the heavier/longer bullets. The trade-off is that medium length magazines are harder to find than short action.

    PRS Talk Mulligans?....Really

    Hmmm . . . I thought it was just a game. It’s hard to see people getting that worked up about it as long as everyone has the same rules, certainly doesn’t seem like a reason for personal attacks. Oh wait, this is the Hide . . .
