    155 Scenars and 5r milspec

    Re: 155 Scenars and 5r milspec I use them in my FTR-class matches. 600 and 1K yds. I shot 579 with 19X's, and 575 with 15 X's last 2 times out at 600. My best string at 1K has been 191 6X. I am a newbie and only been competing a year. I have alot to learn reading the wind. If you run these...

    Rifle Scopes USO SN3 elevation travel with 35mm tube.

    Re: USO SN3 elevation travel with 35mm tube. No matter what you will have to hold the windage because at max elevation you won't have any adjustment. Like previously posted, I would consider holding the last bit. Unless you are going to deticate this rig to 1 mile shooting? YMMV-Rob I also...

    Re: 75 a-max in a 1-9 twist? they work pretty good in my 20" SPS 1:9. I run them long 2.455" and fairly hot. 2850 fps. Load worked well with 24.5 varget. 1/2-3/4 min at 200 yrds. I have shot it to 600 and it worked well.

    Ruger M77 243 Target Rifle

    Re: Ruger M77 243 Target Rifle I have a friend with the same rifle in 308. He was ready to throw it away after shooting all factory loads. It patterned like a shot gun. We have drilled and tapped the receiver for a 20moa rail and worked the trigger down. We have developed a load with 178...

    Rifle Scopes Large scopes.

    Re: Large scopes. My long range 308 carries the 3.8X22 USO. But my new 22" 308 hunting rifle has a 2X7X32. All I need out to 200 for minute of deer. YMMV-Rob

    Fieldcraft Getting ready to build a new 100-1200 yard range.

    Re: Getting ready to build a new 100-1200 yard range. 1K and 600 yrd berms are very useful. Please post results of berm test with round bales as the backstop. I think the elevated shooting position is a great idea. Good luck-Rob

    178AMAX 308 Rem. What else?

    Re: 178AMAX 308 Rem. What else? I never knew Rem made the SPS 308 in a 1:10. I know the Model 7 has a 1:10. How old is your rifle? You might be surprised if you shoot it at 200yds. Sometimes those 178's need a little further to fully stabilize.Especially ina 1:12. Just a thought, YMMV. Buy...

    Gunsmithing Duracoat

    Re: Duracoat The prep has to be the culprit. Cleaning solvents will not touch it. Acetone or hotter will soften it if left on it. Good stuff when done right. Rob

    Re: Anyone running a 35mm USO with 58mm Objective? I have this setup on my Hospitaller.#7 contour w/Surgeon action. I had the low rings from USO, but they were so close to the barrel I could not put a Butler creek on the objective. I now have the mediums with just the right amount of...

    Rem 700 SPS tactical ??

    Re: Rem 700 SPS tactical ?? I really like mine. The parkerized finish is a perfect base for Duracoat. The stock is junk. Mine made a good wall ornament. Pick up a used HS Precision take-off here on the hide and you will be GTG. YMMV-Rob

    A little advice/help needed

    Re: A little advice/help needed Probably gonna have to push them harder. Try a faster powder and work up slowly. Those bullets move very fast when factory loaded. Correct me if I am wrong, but I think we chronoed them at well over 3000fps factory loaded. Be careful. YMMV-Rob
