    Range Report Shooter App vs. Ballistic problem

    Re: Shooter App vs. Ballistic problem I have Shooter set to ICAO and can't find the option on Ballistic.

    Range Report Shooter App vs. Ballistic problem

    Re: Shooter App vs. Ballistic problem Ok. Well I tried one more thing and it worked. I went through the bullet library when setting up each profile on all the rifles and let it automatically enter the bullet info. It worked on every rifle except the Edge. I decided to try the "add ammo"...

    Range Report Shooter App vs. Ballistic problem

    I've been using Ballistic on my iTouch for over a year and have had great success with 4 different rifles. I put Shooter on my Droid hoping that maybe I wouldn't need to carry the iTouch anymore. Entered all proven info from Ballistic into Shooter. All drops match within .1 MOA on all rifles...

    Rifle Scopes Viper PST 6-24x50 EBR1 vs. Sightron 6-24x50 LRMOA

    Re: Viper PST 6-24x50 EBR1 vs. Sightron 6-24x50 LRMOA I was just about ready to pull the trigger on a PST and now I'm reading a lot of posts about people having things floating in their scopes. Keep hearing great things about Vortex CS, but I bothers me that so many people have had to find...

    Rifle Scopes Viper PST 6-24x50 EBR1 vs. Sightron 6-24x50 LRMOA

    I've seen the PST compared to every other scope except this one. I've narrowed it down to these two and need help deciding. It will go on a 6.5-284 that I use to practice with out to 1200+ yds. I currently have the regular Viper 6.5-20x44 on there and it has worked pretty well but it's...

    7 Rem. Mag and too much smoke

    Re: 7 Rem. Mag and too much smoke The smoke was a little less with the Federal primers than with the CCI. Didn't really notice the smoke lessen as I reached pressure. Stayed about the same.

    7 Rem. Mag and too much smoke

    Re: 7 Rem. Mag and too much smoke The groups are pretty good at 200 yds. That's all the farther I've had a chance to shoot it. But, my ES is 48 fps. Can't imagine that will hold up at distance.

    7 Rem. Mag and too much smoke

    Re: 7 Rem. Mag and too much smoke I'm shooting a 26" barrel. I tried some H4831 and didn't have the smoke problem, but the groups aren't stellar. I have some Retumbo I can try. I was just leery going to a slower powder as I was afraid that the H1000 was already too slow.

    7 Rem. Mag and too much smoke

    I'm trying to work up a load with my 7mm mag and 180 grain Bergers and H1000. I've worked from 63 up to 69.5 grains before I saw too much pressure. All the loads had a lot of smoke coming out of the barrel. I'm also getting a lot of powder fouling. Is this powder too slow?? Thanks in...

    Rifle Scopes Sightron SIII SS 6-24X50 LRMOA

    Anyone have any info on this scope? I've had Sightron scopes before that I was impressed with. I'd like to know how reliable it tracks. http://www.sightron.com/index.php?action=view_document&did=1201816362&cat_id=6&id=168

    .260Rem and 123gr. A-Max, Scenar and SMK

    Re: .260Rem and 123gr. A-Max, Scenar and SMK Well this rifle will only be used out to 500 yds. I have quite a few other rifles to shoot farther. So, I'm not real sure that I need the heavies. I also realize that I could probably just shoot a flat base bullet out to 500yds and do fine. I...

    .260Rem and 123gr. A-Max, Scenar and SMK

    Waiting for my barrel to get here for a .260 I'm building and I need some good loads. I picked these bullets as they have a very high BC. for their weight and they won't take up as much powder space as the 140gr. Bergers I have for my 6.5-284. I have on hand some H1000, H4831sc, RL22 and Magpro...

    Gunsmithing 6.5-270 wsm??

    Re: 6.5-270 wsm?? Thanks for the replies. Gives me some things to think about. Been thinking about maybe just going with a 264 WM. Or maybe just stick with my 6.5-284. AARGH! Too many choices.

    Gunsmithing 6.5-270 wsm??

    Re: 6.5-270 wsm?? I thought that you could get a no turn reamer and this would keep you from having to turn the necks. I was also hoping only going from .277 to .264 instead of .308 to .254 would keep you from having to turn.
