    Favorite Front Bags for Load Dev./Accurracy Test

    I'm waiting on an order I placed with dog gone good bags myself. Spoke with Don (owner) and he was awesome. The order process on his website is a bit long winded but if you call him it's a lot more straight forward. You can just email him exactly what you want and he'll mail it to you with an...

    LabRadar CS for the WIN!!!

    Yeah, it had the same scratches/gouge marks where I used a small flathead to help me pry open the unit as well as the coffee straw I taped to the top for aiming.

    LabRadar CS for the WIN!!!

    Wanted to share my recent experience with LabRadar's customer service. Last week I went to the range and noticed that my LabRadar had something clunking around in it. Seemed to be working fine but still I knew it wasn't supposed to be doing that. When I got home I was able to pull the back...

    Custom Cut Foam for Hard Rifle Case

    Exactly! I figure surely I'll get some new toys or gadgets that I'll want to add or will end up switching optics/barrels/stocks/etc. It's always something lol! At least now I have a pretty awesome template I can use to trace on the fresh foam if and when I decide to switch it up.

    Custom Cut Foam for Hard Rifle Case

    It was $105 total which included the custom cut middle foam which was glued to a bottom layer as a backer. So all in all not bad for 2 pieces of foam which cost me $70 on amazon for just the foam itself. Albeit the Cobra foam isn't quite as stiff/dense as the factory Pelican foam it is damn close.

    Custom Cut Foam for Hard Rifle Case

    So finally got my Cobra Custom Foam (total of 8 weeks)! Funny enough, the same afternoon I ordered 2 foam sheets from Amazon to cut my own I got the shipping notification from Cobra. I held off on doing my own cutting until I could see what I might have done differently with my Cobra foam...

    Trigger Tech Diamond

    Dayum 13oz lol. That'd make my 1.5 lbs seem like I need a tractor and a tow strap to get it to fire. I know Austin but they are sooooo nice! But unlike you I don't have the misfortune of having multiple precision rifles that need one so I can see your point :p

    Trigger Tech Diamond

    I absolutely love mine too. The break is so clean it's incredible. @Sheldon N excellent advice on dry fire protocol before going live. What is your trigger set at?

    Custom Cut Foam for Hard Rifle Case

    Okay fellas, the Amazon truck is on it's way today so time to put all this advice to work and see how it turns out. I bought a couple of pieces of foam for trial and error but I think I'm going to stick with the razor blade or fillet knife and a straight edge for now. May consider the hot wire...

    Labradar Blue Tooth app is out

    Thanks guys, I tried everything y'all have mentioned and still no luck. However, I thought I'd try it on my wife's iPad and boom, connected the very first time and works like a charm. It must be an issue with my Google Pixel XL phone. @Subwrx300 was having the same issue with his Pixel XL too...

    Labradar Blue Tooth app is out

    I'm a little late to the party on this but I just downloaded the new firmware and app and am getting the "Communication Error" that a lot of others have been seeing. Have you guys found a solid work around or way to get this turd to connect reliably? I've got an Pixel XL (Android) for what it's...

    Custom Cut Foam for Hard Rifle Case

    Man you guys are worse than my wife! I go in with this cool idea to buy something I've been wanting because it's exactly what I want and then before I know it she's talked me into going a different direction which is now a DIY project that will almost certainly not be as cool as what I wanted to...

    Custom Cut Foam for Hard Rifle Case

    Lol I know @spife7980 , I tried that last time and it looked like Michael J. Fox had cut it blindfolded. Maybe practice makes perfect and I'm not opposed to trying that again but those layouts that are Lazer cut look so freaking clean. Saving the freehand method as a last resort for now.

    Custom Cut Foam for Hard Rifle Case

    How many of you guys have had custom foam work/cutting/layouts done for your hard cases? Who did you use and what was your experience like? I came across a thread a while back on here where someone had got some custom cut foam from Cobra Foam Inserts so I decided to give them a try. Well 7...

    Favorite Front Bags for Load Dev./Accurracy Test

    I realize there is a recent/current thread regarding Bi-Pods vs Front rests but I didn't want to hijack the OP's thread and was hoping to focus on just bags for a front rest. What sort of bags are you guys finding the most useful when doing load development? The dog-gone-good bags look...

    Lanolin/Alcohol Sizing Lube Recipes?

    I found a sprayer bottle from chemical guys on Amazon that has pre-marked ratio fill lines on the side. I needed the paint by numbers version because if I tried what @spife7980 did I'd have overshot my landing for sure. Chemical Guys ACC151 Secondary...

    Lanolin/Alcohol Sizing Lube Recipes?

    6.5 Guys have an article and video on this. They use. 10:1 ratio (alcohol/lanolin). http://www.65guys.com/brass-case-resizing-lube/ I've used this recipe and it works great. Sprays well out of a spray bottle and spreads evenly.

    Honed Forster FL Sizing Die for 6.5 CM Owners

    So you had them hone the dies for both a specific neck tension AND a desired shoulder bump? @padom - you beat me to it before I could hit send. And I plan on doing just that. I would FL size with the honed die and then use an expander mandrel to open it back up. I guess my main goal was to try...

    Honed Forster FL Sizing Die for 6.5 CM Owners

    This is probably a question with a fairly narrow scope but I wanted to see what you guys with honed Forster FL sizing dies are having them honed to for your 6.5 CM? Ideally I would like to be able to order a honed die/dies right off the bat rather than receiving it, measuring loaded cases...
