    Barrel Mirage Shield?

    Re: Barrel Mirage Shield? Mirage shields can be made out of a variety of materials. I have used polyethylene sheets cut to dimension for my .50 comp guns, some people use a slat from aluminum or plastic window blinds, or you can make one out of construction paper or cloth. AI offers one...

    Longest Projectile Shot ???

    Re: Longest Projectile Shot ??? I believe Robert Boll was the individual that designed the HARP Gun, and the proposed "Babylon Gun." He was shot and killed, presumably by the Mosad, but they never admitted to the hit.

    Range Report Weird ..50?

    Re: Weird ..50? If it a brass or bronze alloy, it is one of the "bore rider" type of bullets used in .50 competition. Since it is non-magnetic it is likely a brass alloy. The rear driving band should be of larger diameter than the front, although Barnes made some like this that were/are a...

    50 cal bmg

    Re: 50 cal bmg I know it is easy to get excited about 50's, but you should turn off your CAPS key so people don't think you are shouting. In general, the accuracy difference between rifles will have far more to do with the ammo used, than the rifles themselves. .50's are notoriously...

    McMillan .50 BMG rifle, accuracy with ball ammo?

    Re: McMillan .50 BMG rifle, accuracy with ball ammo? Best brass is IMI (Israeli Military Industries) also seen with headstamps TZ or TZZ. Next best is probably PMC. IMI is very difficult to come by. LC or WCC is readily available and will provide good service, but not match quality. Would...

    M118LR Specs? I got a 1.5 Group @ 500

    Re: M118LR Specs? I got a 1.5 Group @ 500 kilo, bottom line is this.... You can develop a load with commercially available canister powders that is very similar in performance to the 118LR, or sometimes even better. You will never duplicate it because the powder that is used in the 118LR...

    300wm w/220 smk's

    Re: 300wm w/220 smk's FWIW.... The Navy's new load for the 300WM using the 220gr SMK, utilizes H1000 powder. It is loaded to get 2850 to 2950 fps velocity. The pressure spec is up there though. They state a max chamber pressure of 77,000 psi. I don't think they are worried about reusing...

    Rifle Scopes Need pics & info on NEW S&B PMII 3-20x

    Re: Need pics & info on NEW S&B PMII 3-20x I had an opportunity recently to shoot a .338 NM with the 5-25X56 with the H2CMR reticle. The finer additional ticks on the horizontal line make precise wind holds much easier. Since I typically dial the elevation but hold for wind, this worked...

    Need a little help gentlemen.

    Re: Need a little help gentlemen. I also concur with Lt.Arc..... I have both .338LM and .375/408. I <span style="font-weight: bold">do</span> shoot the .338 more often, simply because shooting the .375 at less than 1500 yards is a bit of a waste of it's potential, and I am hard pressed to...

    416 barret brass quality??+ other ????s

    Re: 416 barret brass quality??+ other ????s Those steel projectiles were made out of 12L14 "Ledloy" steel. Softer than stainless, and best used in a nitrided bore. It was the leading edge technology in 1992-1995 FCSA competitions. Everyone moved to brass or bronze alloys due to poor barrel...
