    Best $2000-$3000 CAD scope?

    If you go to a match or one of your bigger stores to get your hands on some of these? We’ve had a few zp5’s and minox lr go down in some matches. Glass is great but have seen a few issues. The atacr has its bullet proof reputation for a reason and is worth the price difference over the nx8...

    Try taking .050 thou off your feed lips, and removing a bit of material off the back.

    Best $2000-$3000 CAD scope?

    Well to each their own, I’m just recommending a product in his price range that’s available in Canada at a fair price. They are becoming very popular up here with them being in the top 3 used optic in my last 3 matchs.

    Best $2000-$3000 CAD scope?

    If you’re looking at 2000-3000 Canadian then give the apex rival a go! Support a Canadian company and lands in your price. The nx8 comes in 600 dollars higher and the Kahles is higher yet again. Ive been very pleased with mi e

    The Ultimate Action?

    I own quite a few custom actions and have shot/handled a few others. Any of the top names will be good. Pick the features you want, the looks you want and run with it. Impact runs the prs game Bat/Borden run benchrest/f-class. They are all nice, I have a few preferences but they all work...

    How and when to utilize abrasive bore cleaners

    It was a kind of a mix of a few people’s recommendations. I cleaned the barrel first with boretech products like frank recommended and then dry patches it till it was dry. Used Iosso bore paste for 10 full strokes followed by dry patches and bore scope, then a second patch for 10 short strokes...

    How and when to utilize abrasive bore cleaners

    Well I had success with some abrasives as I mentioned above the barrel is high round count and causing issues. I cleaned it heavily and didn’t get much success so decided to try some abrasives carefully. Here are the results

    1.25 no taper barrels, where to start?

    Any barrel maker will make a 1.250 straight. Ibi and ks arms are both 8-10 weeks lead time last I checked. Not bad in comparison to many others

    Opinions on pump pillows or fat bags?

    While I agree with most of this statement I feel like the top part of this is incorrect. Just because a few of the top shooters don’t use it doesn’t mean it isn’t a useful tool. While a tool that isn’t used often, someone with a back issue can lean on it more often and I know this due to my...

    Opinions on pump pillows or fat bags?

    I like to tease him a bit but between us he’s the better shooter, it’s just I’m not limited by a back disability and tend to favor higher in the scores. he generally places towards the bottom 1/3 of the pack in prs. It’s taken him a while to live with that frustration. It’s a lot of mental game...

    Opinions on pump pillows or fat bags?

    My shooting partner has back issues and while he is one hell of a shooter on a bench he struggles in positional shooting due to his limitations and shoots just for the fun. He loves the big ass fatbag. I’ve never used the cuddle bag but there is many that use the fat bag and find it too small...

    Opinions on pump pillows or fat bags?

    I carry a big ass fat bag and it gets used a fair bit more than I thought. While it’s definitely not a main bag, and can work without it, it does seriously fill certain voids. The big black pipes is a good example. It sits on top without falling through and you have a massive surface to shoot...

    How and when to utilize abrasive bore cleaners

    Thanks frank, I’ll be giving this method a go to see if I can get another few hundred rounds out of it wjth slightly better cleaning. Unfortunately I don’t have those products so will be using Iosso and boretech product. I appreciate your time.

    6mm BR

    Some people just like the extra ease of the br over the other variants. If you can’t get hand stamped brass for the others then fire forming is involved in different degree’s. Now you can get dasher brass, and bra brass so that isn’t the case as much any more. In general though the bra and br...
