    F T/R Competition Which bullet...for F-TR in 308?

    For long range You need to see how long 185 jugs will seat. They will probably work. Don’t look at F class load data on the boards, it will be too hot seated As deep as you will have to seat them. Do you want to probably run around 43 to 43.5 grains of varget. Also don’t pay attention to...

    F T/R Competition .223/5.56 for F T/R class?

    There is little that is more fun that shooting a 223 with 90VLDs at mid range. I've fired thousands upon thousands of 308s and I enjoy long range, the lack of recoil in the 223 just makes it fun, and on top of that it's competitive.

    I didn't know that they ever covered it, and as far as my search-fu is taking me I can't find that they ever did. There is a bootleg Zeppelin album called "(I can't get no) Satisfaction". It is a recording of a concert in Stockholm, Sweden but that song isn't on the recording. Just a usual...

    I feel obligated to point out that "Satisfaction" is in fact the Rolling Stones not Zep... On the other hand there is this:

    FFP vs SFP

    RE: SFP uses. For pure KD target shooting SFP is usually the choice because the reticles tend to be thinner, you don’t use the reticle for holding, and I think that in an already expensive scope they don’t raise the price. for hunting, if your reticle is a SFP that subtends correctly at...

    Anyone think Tulsi about to “come out” as a Republican? Some of her latest statements are getting pretty close to the right. I know she was a representative from Hawaii. I lived there for four years that place is so far left it’s coming up in the east, so she had to be left to represent her...

    No doubt, but seeing a sea service ribbon on top and a Purple Heart on bottom triggers my OCD.

    What is good magnification range for range spotting scope?

    What is the purpose of the spotter? if you are shooting to 1000 and reading mirage then 25-27 is all you want. I don’t know of any high power shooters that run more. My current scopes run wide angle, long eye relief fixed eye pieces in that range. (I shoot F-TR not tactical matches) I used...

    And I know what that is on it’s back. We were the test platform for the original on the USS Cavalla in the 80’s. If you don’t know I can’t tell you 😁 It isn’t a DSRV. And now we know pretty much everything there is to know about the torps they were testing. 😂 And then there is the whole...

    I did a project at Anniston where I had to carry two respirators one that I wore for work and one that I carried in case the alarms went off next-door the incinerator. The good news is they were finished with the VX the bad news was they were burning mustard. Never needed the one on my hip.

    It would be a great option at less than half the cost of an Anschutz 1727 or 1827

    If it turns out to be a good action drop it in a McM or a Manners or [insert chassis], put on the barrel you want and run it. Maybe at $1500ish it becomes the rock star of PRS factory division. 😱

    I very much want this to be a good rifle. I've always wanted a straight pull but the $$ was just a bit too much.
