    Rimfire Positional Shooting Thread V1.0

    The target package is reasonable for what you get. I bought a set to practice with and hold invitation only matches at the range at my house. Subsequently a local club hosted a match last month. Cheap targets, simple props / stages , kid and new shooter friendly....

    Rimfire Positional Shooting Thread V1.0

    @308pirate The blonde haired / blue eyed cousins across the pond play several games that are cool but not popular here. If you want to play the 300M 3-p game you better like traveling, same with Running Target and I dont think I even know of anyone shooting CISM in the CONUS. @jbell- I...

    Rimfire Positional Shooting Thread V1.0

    Few people who are not used to 3p would find even a half course match enjoyable. If this is the positional postal match type wanted- I would suggest 20 shots prone, 10 standing and 10 kneeling, standard NRA rules, Block time 1 hr. If you want to make it more humbling the metric target. There...

    Sweet Spot for 22LR Target ammo

    @rick137 Theoretical Physics, pretty graphs and statistical predictions have little to do with your stated interest of Positional Rimfire shooting. If you want to get good at 3P you need to learn- 1. How to build stable positions to include body mechanics, adjusting your Natural Point of Aim...

    volquartsen summit action potential?

    @FUNCTIONAL When I wanted to build a straightpull 10-22 action , PWS wasn't making them and Volquartsen allegedly was but I couldn't get one from them.... Like you, I do my own barrel work so I wasn't worried about headspace. I ended up machining a 80% 10-22 and making the reciever a threaded...

    KRG Bravo Chassis

    @Bayoubigcat it is not that simple as a magwell adapter, the integral base pad of the T1x mag hits the bottom of the magwell and you need to make a clearance cut like I show on this MPA However a existing KRG bravo can be made to fit a T1x with a little re-engineering , for more details see my...

    Longevity of 22LR Barrels

    @JG26_26Irish More than 1 Blieker/Lilja combo has been rebarreled before 30,000. Annie barrels (especially late 60's) have a reputation for very long lives but in the end I stand by my 30-50k estimate to consider it is time to consider (sometimes different than doing). I am interested in where...

    Tikka T1X

    @mattix the factory stock uses CTR/TRG form factor mags, dimensions on the back end are just different enough the clearance issues with the mag base pad go away. The socket head cap screw holding the housing is still an issue, the chassis only has a thin web of aluminum here and would be pretty...

    Tikka T1X

    @scocoabeach Thanks for the kind words, I cant wait to see how your new stock shoots based on the groups the factory stock was capable of! Today I made a Tikka T1x fit in a T3 Tac1 chassis. In some ways they are easier to modify (mag well and mag catch are gtg) , some ways harder (have to...

    SF Solider Charged

    The buddy fucking of team mates began when he applied for a .Gov job that he knew would have a polygraph and background check with his particular skeletons in the closet. This is not a judgement on downrange actions but on a course of action he chose after the fact and how many others that...

    Scheels / Atlas sale

    @Kadams1563 your talking about a guys livelihood. It's easy for a consumer to look at MAP as a price fixing scheme but if a manufacturer cant protect the percieved value of a product, the dealer network collapses. If a manufacturer cant reasonably expect others to sell that product the only...

    Gunsmithing Smallest practical lathe for chambering and threading

    @ Gaslight Dont be afraid to buy something now if it fits your budget / can do what you need it to for the foreseeable future-if making chips is in the blood. Few people who do metalworking (hobby or professional) long enough have the machines they started with- needs change and deals come up...

    Gunsmithing Smallest practical lathe for chambering and threading

    OP- if you could change your location to a part of the garage or down in a basement, your choice of lathes opens up a lot. If your 2nd story floor isn't up to holding the dead load of a larger lathe and that is the only space you have, don't let it stop you. While people never regret going...
