    We have 2 Vudoos in our house and a friend has one. All 3 were sticky when we picked them up. I did what I do with every new rifle before shooting it. I took out the bolt and thourghly cleaned the bolt and action to remove the rust inhibitor that every manufacturer uses. I then lubed the bolt...

    What scope do you have on your 22?

    I mounted a Vortex AMG on my Vudoo Apparition. I started with a 30moa rail and I'll be adding a set of Burris Signature ring so I can get most or all of the 27.5 mils of adjustment above my 50y zero. I'm setting up this rifle to run in several types of matches but need as much elevation as...

    Accuracy needed for 22 LR Matches

    If you can do this consistently then I'd say you are set. Go have fun

    Accuracy needed for 22 LR Matches

    Like the old saying about building on a foundation of sand. This is similar and even a bit more important. During your path to learning and getting better at accomplishing your goal of becoming an accomplished match competitor how are you going to judge your success when you don't know if a miss...

    Ruger 10/22 Competition Rifle (Ruger Custom Shop)

    Well we'll just need to wait and see. The upside is that they can spend that $400 savings and a bit more on a proven Kidd hand lapped precision rifle barrel and a Kidd trigger. They have already tried to copy many of the other Kidd innovations. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Ruger...

    Ruger 10/22 Competition Rifle (Ruger Custom Shop)

    You are right the apple has a proven track record of accuracy ad consistency. The orange company hasn't exactly been showing that they can make a high quality, accurate and consistent rimfire rifle. Maybe this one will be the beginning of exactly that but it will need to prove it on the range...

    Ruger Precision Rimfire

    There is a reason for the 6x5 format. That reason is to show consistency. Accuracy isn't accuracy if it only happens occasionally. For a rifle to claim any degree of accuracy it needs to be the norm, not the occasional or even the average for that matter. We share information on forums get the...

    Ruger Precision Rimfire

    It's been 10 months since the release of the RPRr and while I have seen a good group or two posted here and there I've never seen anybody post a 6x5 target yet of any kind. I'd really like to see a few 6x5 targets posted up by those who have rifles shooting 1moa or better. I may revisit the RPRr...

    Ruger Precision Rimfire

    This is indeed an interesting rifle. One of them shoots near 1/2moa (consistently?) and others are using epoxy, aluminum tape aftermarket barrels, waiting for triggers or just accepting 1.5 to 2 Moa as "Precision" because the rifle "only cost $400". I understand though having been a former RPRr...

    We're looking forward to go up to shoot some of the monthly Vudoo matches in St George. They look like fun and a good venue to put these rifles to work.

    Shooting glasses?

    From the viewpoint of a fellow fathead, it is tough to even find a pair of glasses that are wide enough to fit my head let alone looking at quality and features. Then trying to get prescription work done must be near impossible. Probably better finding the glasses/frames and ten having impact...

    While you might not have as much steel you definitely have a bunch more green. I tried to build our ranges where the shooters could actually do some work with their rifles. I have our long distance range setup the same way. This way the shooter knows what they are doing without needing to pull...

    I built out one of our range to have 1, 2, 3 and 4 Moa targets every 25 yards from 25 to 200 yards. Also a few larger targets at every distance to use for positional shooting. Paper from 25 to 100y also. Soon to be putting in a few spinners for a little timing practice. Another 2 ranges there...

    Get off paper and onto some small steel at distance. Get into an NRL22 match and have some fun. Put these sweet rifles to work. Run'em hard and amaze your family and friends. My wife was banging steel with her's from 50y to 400y over the past week. She was giddy like a teenager.

    I believe it's already happened. Paul had a high end CF stock in his shop about 5 months ago.

    We aren't trying to develop bench rest platforms or finding a single load or lot for right now. The size of the groups it shoots is just another data point and not the primary focus. We are trying to find out the basics for evaluating how far to go in search of ammunition for these rifles. X-Act...

    These Vudoo's all shoot great at 50 yards, we've all seen that and with about any ammo. What we are trying to do is get real data that would pertain to the beyond 200y world. We have been shooting at 50 and 100y to this point but soon when the wind dies we'll start shooting paper to 200y and...

    Two of us with Vudoos are about half way through doing ammo testing right now. So far SK Standard +, SK Rifle Match, Lapua Center X, Lapua Midas +. We still have Lapua X-Act and Eley Tenex to complete. Once done I'll compile everything and post something here. What we have seen so far is that...

    Ruger 10/22 Competition Rifle (Ruger Custom Shop)

    This rifle should sell as well as it shoots and that is yet to be seen. It is interesting after all of these years how Ruger seems to be upgrading many of the features to try to copy the Kidd. The popularity of 22 PRS style matches seems to have gotten the attention of many rifle companies. I...

    Nice option for rimfire glass

    I have found that a 30moa rail and a scope with 10mil down left me with about 2.5mils remaining below zero with a 50y zero.
