    The Sportsman Division

    ^^ bingo i was running the SoTex region matches when Keith showed up to his first one as a complete rookie He literally dedicated every bit of spare time he had for years to get where he is today...where he is now is as EARNED as it can possibly get...his dime and his time, then...

    Hornady Bullet Comparator and OAL Tool Measures over .050" too short

    skimmed and didnt see it mentioned, but the lands/throat need to be CLEAN for really consistent measurements if youre not doing this on brand new barrels (for real clean if you want good numbers, not just pushed a few patches if the barrel has had a significant number of rounds on it) using the...

    Truing Berger 105 hybrid BC

    agree with sheldon...105 hybrids are always .275 +/- a few points something is skewing things

    Mixing powder

    mix the lots to make one ive done 100s of pounds over the years with the main types of powders i use...not a big deal in my opinion, i just take care not to contaminate or crush/break up the kernels

    Unexplained elevation shift, reason?

    Good deal, hopefully that was it. You being off 2mil was a good tip off, a shooter with any decent experience (which sounds like you have) isn’t goin to be off because of a position that far at 500, and there’s no environmental factors goin to account for that much shift either .2, sure…2mil...

    Unexplained elevation shift, reason?

    Not sure how long you’ve ran the gen 2 razor, but a common issue when weird things like this happen with that scope is from not getting the 3 set screws on the turret tight enough after zeroing with the center stem. Back when they first came out the general advice was snug them up until they...

    PRS Talk Positional elevation issues

    Most of the time when i see people who error high shooting positional its from either zero'ing with a hard/forward load into the rifle like mentioned above or they simply have their cheek piece too high and have to put a lot of downward cheek pressure to get behind the scope. in prone its...

    What am I doing wrong? POI shift in positional shooting

    first thing id verify is its not the rifle...idk how the ruger 22 is mechanically (never owned one), but POI shifts with a tube/barrel nut systems happen in some setups because of the rifle there are some threads on here about POI shifts in gas guns that use similar mechanics...one of my...

    100 yard accuracy not translating at further distance

    68% of shots will fall inside +/- 1sd from the average 96% +/- 2sd 99% +/- 3sd but i dont think a 12sd is the driving issue either OP, are you shooting steel? is it square or round? Freshly painted enough to see all impacts? If not, are you properly judging impact locations? one occurrence...

    Speed in PRS

    I ran 20x+ pretty much 100% of the time Troop lines, movers, all if it…for my eye it was easier to be sure of corrections and reticle holds vs tryin to see/focus on a smaller reticle I’m also very left eye dominant and shoot right handed so that might be a factor for me Always practiced like...

    Where's the node ?

    Also to note… that test looks similar to what my testing of tuners looked like Yes the POI moved, but the group sizes were so similar it was irrelevant. I dont care if the POI moves up or down if the precision stays similar…once I zero the scope and start dialing it to hit things at various...

    Where's the node ?

    I don’t think anyone’s said changing a weight on the end won’t potentially change POI, at least no one with any clue. The argument said is that changing that weight isn’t changing the group as much as small sample sizes indicates, if someone were to shoot larger samples That if someone were to...

    Is lubing the neck really required?

    I cleaned the necks because it allowed me to get them the same every time Vs varied amount of carbon/case lube/etc over time Annealing with an AMP also turns that into a sticky gunk I don’t want in my necks I just used Redding dry neck lube, I’ve had the same container for 10+ yrs I didn’t...

    Is lubing the neck really required?

    this is why i added cleaning necks (wet tumbling) and dry neck lubing to my process a long time ago i had anywhere from 5-10 barrels in rotation when i was competing and sometimes ammo for one barrel would get loaded and not shot for 1 yr+...i would notice changes in performance when it was...

    Why AI?

    my AT woulda given me an advantage the 2x my triggers went down lol But that wasn’t my point, I was just giving known round counts I think any of the top shooters now could put an AI on the podium if they shot one…I did it with an AI and customs, they could too. But it’s just a preference

    Why AI?

    Mine was between 15-20k rounds easily when I quit shooting it in matches I know of another AW in south tx that was probably in the 30-40k range My 2 impacts both had like 5k and 8-10k on them when I pretty much quit shooting matches and the only failures/hangups with them was triggers…1 BnA...

    Does "Over-Annealing" Impact Shot Dynamics?

    when i checked a long time ago...a gem pro 250 was considered one of the better/affordable scales at that time lol i made sure each was cal'd with the check weight and i weighed out a charge on chargemaster...confirmed it on a gem pro 250...then i left that same charge in an open container for...
