    Rifle Competition Events Precision Rifle World Championships (2022)

    This looks like or would be a great event that will hopefully do great things for the sport. Only idea would be to limit divisions to open and restricted and leave it at men’s and women’s as segregation basis. Just run a successful event Ave leave grading to be fine in slow time to get it right.

    30-06 Improved Cartridges

    Pending the application of the OP, I agree with the suggestion of a .280AI. I have owned and loved the .280AI and look forward to getting my next one. I don’t think the recoil differential would be much between 30-06 and .280AI with the same weight projectiles.

    Do you shoot your .223?

    Okay thanks for that. I’m thinking that for the next barrel I’m going with a 26” heavy varmint or medium Palma profile. But it will be 26” to ring out a few extra FPS. Based on your points above the only down side I can see is needing to buy another set of dies. I usually shoot my 223 within...

    Do you shoot your .223?

    Just a question for the .223AI owners out there, is it worth the hassle of fireforming for the increased capacity and powder burn? Does it reach higher velocities and accuracy easier than a .223? I have a T3x varmint 223 and it’s amazing, was wondering about chambering the next barrel to .223AI.

    Rifle Scopes New Meopta Scope - Optika6

    I have 2 Optika6 scopes in 5-30 FFP. Love them and have used them out to 900m so far. I’ll getting a chance to use them out 1200yds in the coming weeks, I’m curious to know if anyone else has had a chance to use them at the extended ranges and how did they perform?

    New Cartridge by Vortex, 6.5 BC

    If you have the time and money laying around to get new reamers and barrels cut and dies made to to accomplish an extra 150fps (or whatever the improvement is) over a well established alternative then all the more power to you. Again if they sell some to similarly fortunate people, well congrats...

    Replica Navy M14 Sniper Security Rifle (SSR) completed

    That is a great build, congratulations on getting it together. If I’m lucky enough to find myself in the US I’m going to have an M14 or an M1A in my safe.

    Rifle Scopes Delta Javelin 4.5-30x56 FFP SMR reticle

    Very tempted by the javelin, keen to know if there is comparison chart that shows differences between the models. The price difference in Australia is about $800 so there is massive saving from the Stryker, would be keen to know what you’re giving up between the two.

    Swede Mil ammo specs... does anyone know?

    Yep, in terms of pils from current manufactures it looks like there are rough equivalent 140gn/6.5/spitzer offering from Sierra and Hornady could be fun to try

    Finland M39 Mosins

    With regards to the M27, that sounds about right because a friend Of mine has recently acquired an M27, after bore slugging it was proven conclusively to be .308 Additionally, I have tested my M39 with .308 projectiles and shoots quite well with Hornady 178gn ELD-Ms

    Rifle Scopes New Meopta Scope - Optika6

    MY 5-30 FFP Optika 6 has had not issues with returning to zero being used ranges from 100-900m with my .260Rem. My only complaint is seating the windage dial cap to align precisely with markings on the scope.

    Finland M39 Mosins

    While everyone is talking M39s, has anyone ever tried shooting .308 projectiles out of them? I have heard some will shoot .308 pils with a degree of success. Has anyone every tried this? cheers
