    Yearly one mile match AAR

    Saturday I shot my 3rd 1 mile match. Barely did better this year than I did my 1st. Granted it was 28 for a high and winds were averaging around 16 or so. Met some more awesome people and learned I need to work on shooting in the wind and finding targets. Didn't get my Keychain for the mile this...

    B14 or nucleus

    After my yearly 1 mile match shooting my savage action for 3 years it's ticking me off how clunky it is. Doesn't bother me when I'm just shooting not on the clock but when I'm trying to go fast it binds. My idea is either get a hmr for 986 drop a triggertech in it and run it or for a few...

    How often do you clean

    Just as the title says every time or every x rounds? I've got 447 on my 6.5 barrel and a match next weekend gotta rezero to my load I've developed this weekend and figure my suppressor offset. Should I clean it then do all the zeroing and velocity gathering or wait til after the match?

    Hunting & Fishing Tripods for hunting

    Planning an elk hunt for a couple years from now do you guys carry a separate tripod for glassing or the same one you shoot off of. I'm currently using an rt80c with the leveling base so I'd probably need a different head to glass is why I ask

    Resizing advice needed

    So just recently started using a mandrel to resize case necks. I universal decap, resize without expander then use a Sinclair mandrel die with a .262 mandrel to give me consistent neck tension. My issue is how does everyone keep the mandrel from coming out of the die? I've taken to dipping the...

    Ill take it

    Finally got the ocw loaded up to fine tuned from my ladder test. Shot these at 200 yards 42.2 would've been one ragged hole but I yanked those 2 shots talk about making you mad. Another reason much prefer shooting prone over a bench.

    Multiple loads on one optic

    Maybe I'm thinking about this too much. I've got 3 loads for my 6.5 creedmoor and wanting to zero for one then use offset to adjust so I don't have to rezero. Should I zero for the slowest or fastest one as my base zero?
