223 or 308 would be fun and if you’re only going out to 600 than both are adequate to ring steel. I will say a 16” 308 with a performance brake on it will be aggressive on the ears but definitely get peoples attention.
I had a ridiculous group with eley team at 50 that was like .17” or something but unfortunately I only had one box and needless to say I burnt through it chasing tiny groups. With random lots of sk std+ it’s right about .5” at 50 and 1” at 100 if I do my part. Sk long range match is a little...
I brought mine out after a long hiatus and shot paper at distance, at 200ish I was printing right around 2” with SK Long Range match. I unfortunately couldn’t couldn’t measure the group, but looked around 2”
Well that rules it out for me at least, my 169smk load at 2750 is stout enough to mess me up when doing barricade work. Plus being on the east coast we don’t really get high winds besides the occasional gusty day but even that’s not bad.
Oh the dasher donkey, I’ve heard some pretty awesome stuff about it, I haven’t gotten behind one yet but it’s definitely on my radar.
I know the cartridges from the original owner of Sherman definitely worked and have a cult following with people.
Anyone play around with long gong matches and see what’s your experience been like? Is there anything I need to know before showing up besides the basics of know your gear and you ballistic data.
I’ve got a semi local club that’s putting on a match and figured I’d give it a shot since the...
I realized after reading over my original post that I might have been a bit too vague and thought I put more info out but apparently I was very wrong.
So what I’ve noticed is it will shoot a stellar group for three or so shots and then I get a couple “flyers” that creates an equally good group...
That’s an interesting point and anything is possible when you’re dealing with hand made stuff, that could have some sorta variation that’s unnoticeable unless you have the exact same thing to compare it to.
It probably doesn’t help that it’s a new cartridge I’m working with in this stock, but...
I haven’t pulled that lead anchor out yet, but that’s very possible that I’m subconsciously feeling the weight difference and it’s throwing me off.
I’ll switch them next time I head to the range, I almost did that yesterday but the range is a little weird since it’s public.
Both are mini chassis and from what I’ve heard/told the TCS and PRS1 should have the same reach in regards to the trigger. Funny part is the TCS rigs got a diamond set to 10oz while the PRS1 rig has a TT primary that’s 1.5lbs.
Has anyone switched stocks that have pretty much the same ergonomics and seen a noticeable difference in their performance behind the trigger? I switched from a PRS1 to a TCS for my centerfire comp rifle and for some reason I’m struggling to get the same level of accuracy, now I wondering if...
It’s very possible, and it seems a lot of the guys around here have been venturing out to more pro matches this season.
The prices are definitely creeping up, which is a shame but everything is going up in price so it’s to be expected. That’s what has always discouraged me from doing the two...
