    URSA NorCal - Sunday, February 20, 2022

    Thanks for inquiring. We had SoCal events almost monthly from May of 2015 thru April of 2018, at which point we ran out of folks to run the match and, most critically, transport and store the gear. Regrettably that has not changed - save for Lynn luggiing down the NorCal gear for the annual 3K...

    Received my new Cliff Arnold rest recently and polished it up – see pics. Cliff’s workmanship and fit-up are outstanding! Price for base rest and roller bearing top are very comparable to new-build alternatives. I optioned for a set of SS Super Feet and Cliff’s top-plate-mounted holder, custom...

    Dedicated ELR rifles typically have longer barrel lengths. The bullpup design helps deal with casing/transporting.

    2022 SHOT Show: Day 1 (Tuesday, Jan 18, 2022) As in recent years, on Day 1 I went to specific booths throughout the entire show area, ones that I had particular interest in (heard that something was coming or just a company of usual ELR interest). I will do wall-to-walls on subsequent days. I...

    Has anyone on here shaped a stock out of one of the Boyd’s stock blanks? Or reshaped the but end of the CZ MTR stock?

    Dies & Presses

    One thing worth considering is what brass you are going to be using. At this point, Peterson is the favored choice. That is noted because they posted cartridge and chamber drawings for both the 375 and 408 a while back - 375 here...

    URSA 3000 Yard Challenge (2022) - Announcement (dates updated 12/18/2021)

    Because Easter falls very late in 2022, I had failed to consider a conflict with the 3K. Easter will be on April 17. So the dates for the 3K have been changed to Saturday, April 9 for the last qualification opportunity and Sunday, April 10 for the 3K. Sorry for any issues this may cause.
