    Solution for spotting hits at 1000 yard and beyond

    While drones are an expensive option it works when you can't readily drive out to the target. The first shooter on target 2 is using a .308 PGW Coyote and I am shooting a AXMC in 300wm. I shot the video with a Phantom 4 pro v2. the first target is at 1000m and the second one is at 1280. I have...

    Which bullet for .300 winmag long range in an AI AXMC (11 twist)

    No, not yet. I have been shooting some PRS and have focused on 6.5x47 for the last while. I will be playing around in August and think I will try starting at 79grs of H1000 and go from there. Then I'm sure a flat line or 2 might be worth a try. 198's sound interesting. Have fun...

    285gr 338 Flatline

    Hi Dan, with the pending relaxation of ITAR regulations will you be able to sell Flatlines to us Canadian folks? Here's hoping...

    Mystic Precision bipod for ELR...

    "The guy who "makes"/designed it is a clown." I would disagree with this statement. Mystic Precision is a very well respected business and the man can shoot. Shoot better than most with out trying. Wins more matches than he loses it seems. As far as I know he builds good gear and stands behind...

    Which bullet for .300 winmag long range in an AI AXMC (11 twist)

    I have an AX with a 1-11 barrel and it loves SMK 190's. 81 gr. H1000 gives me 3050 Ft/sec in Nosler and 3070 in PPU. It just works and just works really well. I have taken it out to 1400m and can hit thumb tacks at 100m. I have some 200.20x that I want to try but every time I sit down to load I...

    Why don’t more people use Drones?

    I have a Phantom 4 pro v2 and have been successful using it out to 1600m. I hover it about 10m short of the target and 5 m to the side. Camera is a little wide but it does work to replace the spotting scope. I also have the Crystal Sky monitor and that is easy to see in direct sunlight. Would...

    Scope caps

    I really like the objective cap from Tenebraex on my S&B 5-25. The ocular cap was good as well but I have a KAC level on my rail and the size of the cap was too big for me to see it. Have you ever tried to take one of those things off? It was a chore to say the least. Good grip on the scope for...

    using a drone for target cam?

    So if you are hovering or landing how close would you get to the target? Not sure what the danger zone would be but I assume that landed I would want to be 25yrds away and hovering I would think 15 to 20 yards would be enough to avoid shrapnel. Guess it would be a crap shoot as ricochet could go...

    using a drone for target cam?

    I found a decent looking drone camera at SPI in Las Vegas. It should do everything I need it to do and take those issues out of the picture. I'm actually looking at their gear for a couple of work projects and they have some very unique solutions. Landing on snow should not be a big problem as...

    using a drone for target cam?

    I'm curious if anyone has used a drone to fly out to the target and land? You could then use the camera to spot the target and then have the drone return to base. The reason I am wanting this is that there is way too much snow for me to drive 1600 m out to the target and set up the camera...

    WTC 198 Grain / 300 WM

    I have found that 190 smk and 200.20x shoot better than anything I could hope for. No reason other than curiosity to spend time and money on different bullets. They might be the next best thing but will have to find a way into the main stream. Perhaps you will lead the way with spectacular...

    AICS vs MRAD vs ? in 300 win mag...

    There are the Cadex Kracken and the Remington system to take a look at. Don't know much about either but they do have multi-caliber systems for sale. When getting into this level of product it might make sense to look at them all. I chose the AXMC (psr kit) several years ago when there was...

    IMR 7977 Powder Vs H1000 Vs Retumbo

    A friend of mine has theory that once you find the velocity that works for your rifle the powder you use is irrelevant. If you can get a load with any powder that hits the velocity you are good to go. Same seating depth and all. Temp sensitivities are part of the equation. Constant velocity is...

    In ear electronic plugs

    I'll second the vote for ESP. Yes, it is expensive for weekend shooting and so will hearing aids be when you turn 50. I tried many over ear types but they would all lift when I had good cheek weld. Shoot a braked .338 lapua once with the ear cup lifted and that will be the last time you want...

    Neck Tension the Extreme Spread Culprit

    I found the same thing with new brass with the exception of Nosler. I have 800 Lapua .308 brass and they all were inconsistent until the second shot. I neck sized and carefully checked the rest of the dimensions and found that my SD and Extreme spread were less than 1/3 of the first shot with...

    PRS Talk Building a rifle for PRS Tac division

    In the Tac division the speed limit is 2750ft/sec. I have found that 175 Berger OTM's and 178 ELD M's can reach that speed easily. I have a 1:12 24" so that is close to the limit on stability according to Berger. I'm not sure You would see any advantage going lighter at that speed. I want to...

    308 178 Amax looking for speed

    My AIAX MC is a 1:12 24" It likes 44.3gr. of Varget in Lapua brass with BR2's this will give me 2730 Ft/sec. I can go harder but I load for Tactical with a speed limit of 2750. The same load runs Berger 175 OTM's at 2715. I've gone up to 45.0 and got 2810 with the Amax or ELD M They were both...

    Best Day Pack

    One of the things that helped me decide on Kifaru was that once you have the frame you like you can change out the pack based on what you need that day. Short trips, the 22 mag might be a good choice. Going hunting for the week, cheap to buy one of the big units as well. One size fits all is...
