1 WEEK LEFT: This Target Haunts Me Contest
Tell us about the one that got away, the flier that ruined your group, the zero that drifted, the shot you still see when you close your eyes. Winner will receive a free scope!
You can't.....you pretty much have to use a 6 o'clock hold..
Remember....it's 2 5x and from the 1940,s..
Still love shooting with them .... on the L42A1 and No4T,s..
That particular L42A1 is as accurate as ANY firearm I have ever shot!!
I enjoy the 50 a lot. BUT it is VERY finicky with loads..
I get excellent results with the 750 Amax,s ...but it took quite some time to find a load that was consistent at extended ranges...ie 2000+
Re Solids,.... Yeah.. i use the Hornady 390 Atips...so hits are very easy to spot even at...
6 mm and 6.5mm based cartridges are fantastic performers...i used a 6.5 CM for quite some time and absolutely enjoyed it.
I used to run many different cartridges in my SRS and HTI Desert Tech,s ....some time ago i decided it would stick with 2 ...375CT and the 50BMG. I sold off my SRS and...
They are a piece of piss to make..
Material.... 2" wide x 1" thickness x 234mm long S1214L ( free machining leaded ) bar stock .
From one end come in 44mm on centreline ... First hole ( 5.5mm dia ) 7 remaining holes at 25mm centre to centre ( 8 total) . Counter bore each hole with...
Again....for interest..
Myself and a couple of friends just set up 3 more DNT 7-35,s on a few rifles... ... another 50bmg , 338 Lapua and 375 Chey tac..
Will keep posting as time progresses and see how they all hold up..
I have several others my self but are mounted on small calibre...
Something I have been meaning to try for a while.
Machined up a couple of external weights to put on one of my HTI s..
Total weight is now 42 pounds..
The 375 is now like shooting a 6mm !!!
:)
Still trying to "Kill" my first DNT on the 50bmg .... So far...not happening..
On that note...had 2 more of my S&B,s succumb to the "Debris" Gremlin !! :(
After shooting ...
S&B have given me a "Reason"......BUT! ...I find it unacceptable when a $1000 "Chinese" optic with over 1000 rounds on a 50 has zeeo,zilch debri!!
just for info....
The dreaded "Debri" gremlins struck with 2 more of my S&B,s .....New replacement 6-36 and New 5-45 High Power.. One on 50bmg , one of 375 CT
Seems to be the Achilles heel of S&B..
Desert Tech brakes have a quite strong Loctite compound used. You will NOT remove the brake without heating the threaded section....use a heatgun.
If you do not have a barrel vice, use some pine...or softwood blocks ( 2 halves) and clamp the fluted section in these blocks in a good vice.
Use...
