    There is a Desert Tech section with tons of good info on the SRS under “resources”, but there’s no real way for someone new to know about it except by chance. https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/resources/desert-tech-srs-hti-covert-hunter-resource.27/ Most of the repetitive questions can be...

    Official (DTA) SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Thread

    Have a couple questions. 1. Has anyone found a decent soft case besides the DT one? I don’t think I want to spend $300. I have 2 barrels, 2 magazines & 2 bolts. 2. I know someone mentioned a sling that was really good for a heavier rifle. I think it had backpack straps but I can’t find it...

    Ballistic AE vs AB

    If you know the distance you can put exact distance in Ballistic AE. You put the target distance as maximum distance and the target distance as range increment and it gives you the exact dope for the distance.

    Chickasha is about 275 miles from me. I’m all the way out in Guymon, OK. I’ve never heard of the Fouled Bore, but if I’m ever down that way, I’ll have to try it out.

    Only thing I wish is that I had a 22 rimfire barrel for the DT. I’m still in the honeymoon stage but I just can’t afford piles of high end gear. I sold 3 rifles and 4 scopes to get mine. I have 2 barrels and would really like to get a 300 WM hunting profile barrel for the system for hunting.

    range question

    In general, the way it is set up now, will be a sharp angle rather than broadside. I guess I should say the other set up would have the wind 75-105 degree? I would love to do both but the price of steel, and we’re building a shooting platform and storage at the range so I can’t afford both...

    range question

    Good question. I don’t know that I have a good answer. I hadn’t thought of it as levels of difficulty. I suppose I was assuming that there was an advantage/disadvantages associated with the 90 degree cross wind vs 20 degree crosswind. From my friend’s casual comment I somehow assumed he was...

    range question

    I'm not really doing this for a competition, but rather for my own personal shooting.

    range question

    I've built a range with steel from 50 to 1020 yards. I positioned the range facing north to minimize wind and sun, thinking this would be the best direction. I've been told that changing the direction of the range so that our prevailing wind (from the southwest) was more full crosswind rather...

    Range Construction

    Is there a proper forum I should direct my range construction questions? I don't see one and I've looked around just a bit.

    I only shot 8 rounds of 223 so far (10 total but 2 were by some kids wanting to shoot my rifle). Federal Gold Medal Berger 73 BT Target This next one is just 3 rounds but you can see where the two kids hit nearby. I can’t wait to get out a little more and try more ammo.

    After going back to my manual, the only thing I wasn't doing was closing the bolt before Locking the barrel. I was closing the bolt after locking the barrel. I was torquing in the same order each time. I went back through my notes and I'm not as far off as I thought at first glance. I need...

    Does anyone have some inconsistency on zero when switching barrels? I am.

    Since I've never messed with an Atlas bipod, it is pretty hard to understand what the advantage of this new bipod will be over the Cal besides being more expensive. I like the Cal's wider footprint than the PSR. I like the no pan feature of the Cal. I dang sure like the less expensive price...
