    PRS Talk Rifle weight ?

    I run a similar setup, but in 6GT. I'd be willing to bet the rig is still ass heavy if you put it on a cattle gate pole or something (mine is, although it balances on a bag on a wider prop - 2x4 or whatever). I have to have the bipod for that balance, though. Planning to rebarrel it with a 1.25"...

    @Kestrel Ballistics or @DocUSMCRetired - either of y'all know on this, by any chance?

    Seriously dumb question - is there a way to change the bluetooth access pin in the Kestrel? I can turn Bluetooth off and on, and select the mode, but can't seem to change the PIN...

    6gt

    I haven't tested regular small rifle primers in GT - but I did in SRP Creed brass while doing a primer test. CCI 400s and Federal 205s both performed pretty well vs 450 and BR4. They weren't quite as consistent (SD was 1-2 points higher with them), but that's really about all I noticed there. GT...

    Kestrel Meters Ballistics Official Thread

    I haven't blown you guys off - work got nutty the past few weeks and haven't had time to sit down and call. I can't seem to reproduce the compass issue I was having in the past - so for the moment, I'll chalk it up to "Dave is a dumbass", and try to use it as intended? Basically, it was showing...

    PSA: All Creedmoors should be .25 Creedmoors

    Announced, what, last year? Still not available. Vaporware doesn't count, in my book.

    6.5 Creedmore Reload with N550 at 1.8gr more than recommended max

    https://www.primalrights.com/library/articles/understanding-pressure Depending on your rifle, some cratering of the primer might just be normal - but primer flow, ejector swipes, hard bolt lift, etc, are generally reliable signs that you have issues.

    I got mine via an email to modify my TCS order - I suspect you can call or email to get them?

    Kestrel Meters Ballistics Official Thread

    I'll call - prolly tomorrow, thank you. The "contrary to design" ... I mean, it's just a different way to enter the same number manually. Once you allow manual input of wind direction, it's only a question of how you allow it - but then, I don't have the design specs handy or know the background...

    Kestrel Meters Ballistics Official Thread

    Yeah, it's not a question of formatting or how to declare wind. I can declare wind in degrees - the problem there is that it's a relative angle. So, if I'm forgoing the Kestrel's internal compass (I know a lot of folks use it without issue - for me, it's been finicky at best, and I've had much...

    Kestrel Meters Ballistics Official Thread

    @Kestrel Ballistics - is there a way for a user to submit an enhancement request? Specifically, I'd really love the option to enter wind direction as a compass bearing, rather than a relative angle to target direction - and also to be able to enter/modify wind that way on the target card, as...

    Shoulder bump inconsistency

    I would suspect that's correct - I saw this with Lapua 6.5 brass on first firing - the shoulders were over a spread of .003-.004. I bumped the longest ones .002, and then rest fell where they fell. On 2nd firing, they were all pretty much the same - within .001 of one another.

    Shoulder bump inconsistency

    At one point, I had three different Hornady .400 comparators together in one spot. Using the same comparator body and calipers, and "zero"ing the calipers out (it was a dial, so basically, just noting what measurement each showed with the caliper totally closed, and then subtracting that number...

    Shoulder bump inconsistency

    It was said above inside a couple posts - but I'm reposting it for clarity so it's easier to find: The comparator WILL NOT give you the "base to shoulder datum" number that you see on a reamer print or a cartridge spec diagram. It also will not give you a number that you can compare in an...

    Manners Composite Stocks Estimated Lead Times

    As long as it hasn't shipped, they should be able to add to it - depending on the ask, anyway. Like, if you need to change finish or something, and the stock is already past that point in manufacturing, you might be too late, but adding additional items (weights, etc) should be doable. And...
