    Is something going on in Ukraine?

    What give me the creeps are the names of the possible battlegrounds in Ukraina: Cherkasy, Poltava, Kharcov, etc. There are still over 1 million missing soldiers buried in old WW2 trenches in this area. This is just the second battle of Kharcov:

    Black collar arms straight pull bolt gun?

    Well, that is partly correct. If you compete at top level in the old Olympic event "Running Deer Doubles", two shots on each run, you loose too many points due to locktime with a hammer rifle compared to striker fired bolt rifle due to size of the x-ring.

    L42A1 & Enforcer reloading

    45gr VV N150 behind a Lapua 168gr Scenar. This is the load that set the first perfect score in ISSF 300m 60 shots prone. 600/600p in the 1991World Championchip in Moscow. After 59 shots and 590 points the shooter, Harald Stenvaag, adjusted his rear sight two clicks "up" and shot a 10.0 at 6...

    English is not my first language so sometimes "tounge in cheek" comments come out in a way not intended.

    Admiral Willis 'Ching' Lee - The Ultimate Sharpshooter

    A brilliant bio of Willis 'Ching' Lee on one of Youtube's best channels: Drachinifel. ( A side note; Willis 'Ching' Lee was soundly beaten by Norwegian shooters from my club in the Running Deer events in the 1920 Olympics :) )

    Ssg 69 accuracy

    The SSG69 Sniper had to pass a test at the factory; 10 shots inside 10cm@300m. The SSG Match; 10 shots inside 7.5cm@300m. This was the testing regime at the end of the 70'ies.

    I am getting old…

    Thre worst thing getting old is that even with the latest, greatest, new gadgets I can't match the results (offhand shooting) I shot 40 years ago with a bone stock Rem BDL Varmint topped with a Weaver T10/T16.

    Well, this is going to be a fun project....

    Regarding the buffalo videos. As a kid I had a dream of sneaking an African buffalo into a Spanish bullfighter arena.. :-) (As a kid I felt sorry for the bulls after attending a bullfight in Spain)

    Strange Leupold scope

    We have two 50m running boar ranges side by side and two 100m running deer ranges side by side. All ranges have two position setup and MegaLink electronic targets so there are no pit duty. On the boar ranges we can get app 20 shooters through shooting 20+20 mixed runs and 30 slow runs + 30 fast...

    Strange Leupold scope

    Back to the Leupold scope in the first post. It looks like a 4x scope for 10m airrifle. If possible on the Premier, DO NOT let the posts cross the centerline with the windage knobs. To zero the scope on a rifle adjust the post tips as close as possible to the center in the field of view. The...

    FBI Sniper Rifles

    I can't see that on the pic properly but is it not advisible to angle the recoil lug sides a few degrees invards towards the bottom to avoid risk of damage to the bedding when the action is inserted and removed from the stock?

    I went off Hathcocked.

    How did they keep zero with those rifles in combat/field scenarioes??? I would be afraid to carry such a rifle from my car to the shooting stand..

    Super Snipery M1914 DWM Navy Luger with ZF41 Scope.

    I'm always facinated by the ladder rear sight on the Art.Luger that moves alot sideways on the longest ranges to compensate for spindrift. And it does it correct. I've tested it on extreme ranges in perfect conditions.

    Mount options for a '69 push feed M70 Target...UPDATED

    In 1980+/- I was sponsored by Winchester Europe and used a modified varmint M70 pushfeed in 222rem for the old Olympic event moving target, running deer, at 100m. I think Winchester owned Weaver ElPaso at the time and I was given a T10 and a T16 with target dot reticles. I still use the T16. I...

    H&K SL7

    Get an "old" fixed 4x or 6x42 S&B with the old style rail usually used for claw mounts. The rail fit straight on to the HK mount without rings. If the scope then is too low for the rear sight get a new/spare G3 drum and modify it so it don't touch the scope. Google pics.
