Re: Tiger Valley this weekend 22nd Saturday. Waco, TX Yesterday was a blast. Excessively windy but I had some good shots every now and then despite being my first time out shooting to 1000 yds. Just confirms that you just need to get out and shoot as much as possible to be able to figure...

Two questions.. 1) Is the open shoot still going on tomorrow at Tiger Valley in Waco? 2) Do you have to register in advance or can you just show up at the designated time listed on the website? Thanks

Re: Rimfire Trainer suggestions $500 budget thanks for the recommendations... I was looking up prices on ammo and came up with this conclusion so correct me if Im wrong. 17 HMR is relatively expensive when compared to run of the mill 22LR ammo. However, 17HMR is about the same price as...

Re: Cleaning so not to remove moly which moly prep solution do you use? Doesnt kroil remove moly?

Re: Cleaning so not to remove moly thanks for the replies everyone... so lets say the groups are opening up at the range and I want to clean at the range. What do i use? Also, how often do you clean powder fouling? After every range session? Do you always use a solution? Can you use just a...

I shoot moly and always have. Lately ive been talking and reading and apparently I clean my rifle too often and too intensely. So my question is if Ive recently cleaned pretty much to the metal then fired 50 rounds of moly coated rounds, when and how should I next clean my rifle so as to leave...

Re: Feed Ramp marking bullets I have alot of fine grit emory around the house. Anyone have a good tutorial on how to polish the feed ramp?

Re: Feed Ramp marking bullets thanks for all the great input...Wil i definetely thought of everything you did. I knew it was the feed ramp in the beginning because i felt it scraping and watched it scrape going up the ramp. Then as per advice from another thread I adjusted the lips of the...

Re: AICS + REM 700 PSS = Feeding problems from the mag I opened it up and it seems to be working alot better. Now my final question. I see a very light drag mark on the tip of the bullet when i feed then extract it. Does it make any effects on the ballistics? This drag mark is barely...

Re: AICS + REM 700 PSS = Feeding problems from the mag well the bolt isnt touching the magazine. however, the bullet is hitting the feeding ramp as it attempts to exit the magazine.

Hello, I have and AICS 1.5 on a remington 700 PSS. However, testing it out I noticed that feeding from the magazine results in my bullets being scraped along the feeding ramp and i have to apply a generous amount of force to get it up the ramp. Manually loading the chamber is no problem with...
