    Mk12 Mod 0 FINALLY.

    FINALLY got the AEM5 out of jail and got it painted to match as best I could (without redoing the whole rifle) Ditched the Harris for an Atlas PSR. The harris just sucks in comparison and is way less "streamlined" with a pic to sling swivel adapter. Since I couldnt afford a KAC Mk11 adjustable...

    Is the ammo my problem?

    You need to shoot quality ammo. 55 and 62 gr factory trash is just loaded to go bang. Its not loaded to be accurate. Buy some match ammo and try it out. Federal Gold Medal Match is the standard for 223 and 308 factory ammo. 69 or 77gr will shoot great. You can try with cheaper ammo also...

    PRS Talk How important is MV in competition?

    Thats a great thought process! Or if the wind dips or picks up by 3mph what sort of difference will you see

    PRS Talk How important is MV in competition?

    Pick a ballistic calculator and run the numbers. Throw a 90* 10mph wind or even 20 and see what it spits out. You’ll see that even an extra 100fps gets you very minimal performance with wind. I used to run my dasher at 2950-2970, but backed it down to get a load that I could shoot in the rain...

    PRS Talk 1st PRS Match

    Shooting at 1000y is just like shooting at 100y, but with wind. Dont get wrapped up in distance. If you are a solid shooter at 100, I can put you behind my rifle at 1000, figure the wind for you, and you can hit. For your first match. FIRST AND FOREMOST.... you are NOT going to win. you are NOT...

    Mk12 Mod 0 FINALLY.

    Yeah, 18" but the 2850 was a pretty healthy dose of 8208XBR. Not something I would normally run lol

    Mk12 Mod 0 FINALLY.

    Actually went through with some random powders guys usually use for lighter bullets (just to try out in the current powder situation) and 8208XBR. 8208 SHIT on everyone as far as velocity goes. I got 2850 with 77s but it was definitely leaving some "imperfections" on the brass lol. Really just...

    Mk12 Mod 0 FINALLY.

    I actually read somewhere about this with someones MK12 so I did do that. Everything was tight but definitely peace of mind doing it and double checking.

    Mk12 Mod 0 FINALLY.

    If you’re a 100% cloner, I’m going to apologize now... Like a shitload of people I love the look and idea/premise of the Mk12. I built an 18” SPR 5 or so years ago with that Mk12 image in my head but once it was done I never really liked it much. Its...

    Burris XTR Pro 🇺🇸

    I just hope the glass is good. I wanted an XTR3 but heard that same story in the glass department as the 2. All of the XTR2s that I've had were miserable, to the point that I actually emailed burris when I recieved the first one to see if I needed to send it back.

    What did you do in the reloading room today?

    After 4 years, FINALLY spent $30 on a ceiling mount for a TV instead of having a laptop and extra speaker in my way on the bench.

    6mm BRA Load development

    It wont really cause a pressure issue, but generally it wont be happy. Sticky bolt, not shooting well, etc. The alpha necks are thicker than the lapua. I think most use a .274 neck for Alpha and .272 for Lapua.

    6mm BRA Load development

    2900 in a 26" BRA is way too fast. thats why you're seeing pressure. Back it down to that 2800 "low" node. Thats about where a BRA should live. It wont need constantly tweaked, will shoot great, and will be so much easier on brass and barrel.

    Gunsmithing Camo Ckote in "crazy" colors- anyone done it?

    I did a bright sponge "camo" at someones request for a Prairie dog gun. He loves it lol, thats all that matters I suppose.

    FNH SCAR 17S at 1,000 yards!!

    If you've got a big enough target, "no" wind, enough ammo, and a good spotter... DEFINITELY.
