    Training Courses K&M Advanced LR Precision Course - 9-10 November *SOLD OUT* PICS/VIDEOS

    My arrival coincides with my room check-in but since I'm driving I could adjust things, if for example I could get in a little shooting Friday (hint hint) I could leave few hrs. earlier. Either way looking forward to a badass weekend.

    GAP-10 or Larue OBR or LWRC Repr?

    No. What it likely means is that someone has a bad taste in their own mouth for not being able to carve a niche in the firearms profession. That's just a guess of course (since we're slinging mud at people we don't know) and for all I know "somebody" was simply dropped on their head way too...

    SH ColdBore Challenge ! Test yourself...

    For my fourth attempt I figured I'd try it on a new stick with maybe 20 rounds through it. I hate shooting at 100 but needed to finish barrel break-in today. This is my second time out with this rifle. GAP-built R700, Ax chassis, Remy X Mark trigger, PH 5-25X Tactical w/Gen IIXR Clean/cold...

    IR thermometer

    One way to get good results with your IR therm. would be to get a shoe box and line it with rags/cloth. Then cut a hole in the lid big enough for the therm. to fit in. This will block out reflections and give pretty accurate readings.

    IR thermometer

    I'm also saying that if a precise temperature is important then using an IR therm. injects a bit of "snake oil" into the equation. The below thermograph is from an IR camera looking at regular floor tile. It was taken in mid-October on what was likely an 80 degree day. Notice the spot temp of...

    IR thermometer

    If you're going to go that route.. go cheap. IR thermometers are great for obtaining a "general" temperature or temperature difference (delta-T) but not great at obtaining exact temperatures. It's not that they're incapable of exact temps...it's just that there's no way to compensate for...

    What's important to you. Quality or Price?

    I have prolly 8 of your plates and stands and have been beating the tar out of them for several years now, even loaning them out for matches. Never a failure except a chain on a swinger (wasn't your chain). Cheaper would have been nice but the performance was there so I'm not complaining. I...

    Training Courses K&M Advanced LR Precision Course - 9-10 November *SOLD OUT* PICS/VIDEOS

    Yea I've been busy training a new employee so I've been out of the loop since spring. I should know something in a day or two.

    SH ColdBore Challenge ! Test yourself...

    For my day two run I decided to throw in a twist and run this drill on 3 different rifles. This allowed me to (fairly) do this several times in one day since my range is a bit of a drive. The players were a GAP10, GAP HRT, and Seekins-based SPR in .223...3 very different sticks. I kept all...

    Advanced Marksmanship Switching Rifles

    Double edged sword. The surest way to reach a plateau is to not step away from something from time to time. It's why we take vacations. .223 makes a great trainer and almost can't be beat for price-per-round in a caliber that can reach comfortably/accurately to 600 yards. I don't have time...

    Training Courses K&M Advanced LR Precision Course - 9-10 November *SOLD OUT* PICS/VIDEOS

    I might jump on this. I'm due for a vacation. I went through the inaugural adv. class when the range was in its infancy and it was a nice break from the grind.

    GA Precision Current Lead Times 9/18/14 update

    They got you too? I HATE that rifles ready to ship plan. It just lured me into a AICS-AX R700. You'll LOVE that HRT. Mine is a freakshow. Most accurate 7.62 I've ever fired. Good choice.

    SH ColdBore Challenge ! Test yourself...

    Shot this today at 850 yds, 5 shots. CCB is at 6 o'clock just below center. It strangely didn't knock the paint off for some reason. Last shot was the high flier. GAP-10 (7.62) Factory FGM 175's DA 1700' 3-5 intermittent 12 o'clock wind Without the flier...horizontal spread is 7"...

    Seekins SP223 Precision AR Project

    I recently picked up a Seekins platform and it's a hammer @ 600yds. Had a minor bolt issue but got it resolved and had it out today. Almost couldn't miss with it @ 600 even with the wind. Had maybe 2 misses in 30 rounds at a 2/3 IPSC. I really didn't expect to shoot sub-MOA at that distance...

    Yeti coolers - who has 'em?

    I practically live out of my truck and spend an average of 12 hours in the field every day. My Yeti will spend all 12 of those hours in the cab of my truck which reaches temperatures of 130 degrees in the Florida sun. It stays there typically until 9-ish before I bring it in for the day. Twice...

    SPR

    I keep hearing that but from what I saw today the FGM 69's are nothing to sneeze at. I'll likely try a few different pills and run the cheapest round I can find that will print sub MOA at 600. Not concerned too much with the prettiest groups.

    SPR

    I got to take it out today and except for a bolt that was slightly "over-chromed" it's an impressive shooter. The bolt kept locking up so I had to break position and free it between shots so I simply adjusted to center punch one round @ 100 and just called it zeroed. Then moved directly to...
