    Large change in accuracy with barrel temp

    What powder? Less temperature sensitive powders such as 8208xbr and H-1000, etc. may help here.

    DD m4v5 government profile barrel accuracy

    If you go to the HBAR they are generally sub MOA. I run one to 600yards or so with a 1-4 PST and 77 grain smks at 2660fps are impressive (8208xbr if you want to know). This rifle shreds a nickel to quarter sized hole at 100 yards with handloads between 55 and 77 grains. Ball ammo is just over...

    Is 1 in 7 twist too fast ...

    As stated above , bulk/surplus 55's and 62's are not going to win any benchrest competitions, but they may pleasantly surprise you. I have seen lots of xm-855 shoot just over an inch at 100 and lots of 55's not far behind more than once or twice. Bench it, shoot it, and then blast away as...

    Rifle Scopes What REALLY happens if you turn elevation knob too far?

    I stripped out a Leupold mk IV 3.5-10x40with m3 turret upon bottoming out the elevation knob stretching out to 1300yds with my 308/175's(had to use another couple of mils or so of elev to get there on the reticle) . I did not immediately know I had done it, as I just spun the knob at a normal...

    1907 sling treatment

    Saddle Soap works well. I used 1907 slings on deer rifles for years in all sorts of weather, and they turned dark but held up well. They were buffed every year or two with the stuff.

    Hunting & Fishing Another hunting death

    Had a long response to this written, but in short. What works in one place does not in another. Those hunting with loaded chambers were taught differently than those of you hunting with an empty chamber, but not incorrectly. Most of us started as kids walking the woods on hunts with our dads...

    Fall 2013 ASC scores

    First, I apoligize to the shooters for it taking me so long to get these posted up, but it has been one of those "interesting" weeks for me. The Fall 2013 Allegheny Sniper Challenge was held in the Allegheny mountains near Seneca Rocks, WV Sept. 13-Sept. 15. I would like to...

    Range Report Can you make this cold bore shot? --Poll

    I would submit the following: It is more important to understand the conditions that limit your personal range to make that shot on an 8" gong. I have made cold bore shots with a 308 at around that distance on a slightly larger plate, but certainly not near 90% of the time (3000' ASL)...

    Mayors against guns...ummmmmOK

    To begin with, I wish this man a long stay in a cell with "bubba" and am not one bit surprised at the hypocrisy shown here. Next, a mayor is ELECTED, not a public employee. Please don't confuse the two. Second I love the popular disdain for the "public employee" so much when my salary(which...

    Movie Theater Battelstar Galactica is back

    Re: Battelstar Galactica is back Put the original BSG in context. It was awesome in its time. Of course if you watch any of the old 80's sci fi stuff it looks laughable now due to the huge leaps in special effects. The remade BSG sucked hairy phallus for all the friends I have that loved...

    Hunting & Fishing Deer hunting with a 20" .308?

    Re: Deer hunting with a 20" .308? We took 20" SPR A5M's to 1200 at asc with a lot of hits going on at a grand using the lowly 175smk. Your goal of 600 yards with that rifle and bullet(155's) is very doable if your skill is commensurate.

    Is it worth it to accurize a Ruger M77?

    Re: Is it worth it to accurize a Ruger M77? I would not for several reasons. 700 actions are a cheap part of what can slowly become a top class build. I'm sure I will offend the senses of some when I say that I can not see a difference in the field in the utility of a well built 700 and the...

    pressure sign? *pics*

    Re: pressure sign? *pics* First, I would not shoot any more of that ammo starting yesterday. Second, get a light and look in that chamber. If nothing is seen, clean the shizzle out of the chamber area with an oversize brush with solvent, and then clean it out some more with oil and patches...
