    Matches in Houston Texas area?

    Bayou rifles does a smallbore silhouette match the second saturday of every month at the addicks range. They also do a 'plinkathon' on what looks like the 3rd saturday. silhouette is all off-hand, but can help with shooting skills in general. I've not shot the plinkathon.

    129 sst 6.5 grendel

    Yeah, the grendel forum warns about the 123+ class bullets with the 8208, so with 129s, I'm not sure what to expect. I have a pound or so of 8208, but don't know if I would get the same velocity with the 130s as with leverevolution.

    129 sst 6.5 grendel

    Leverevolution has worked well for several on the grendel forum form the 123+ class of bullets. I'm using leverevolution in a bolt gun under the 130 bergers. Same work up slowly, and from what I've read the powder is somewhat temperature sensitive. 30.2 grains, berger 130 ar hybrid, 26 inch...

    Starline enters 6.5CM brass market

    Any idea who makes the gunwerks brass? I'm reloading some 1x and 2x fired Hornady since I've just started, but I'll be buying some Lapua or Peterson soon...likely.

    22 shilloute shoot out

    Point of reference. Smallbore rifle silhouette uses chickens, pigs, turkeys, and rams at 40, 60, 77, and 100 meters, respectively. Including the bases....the animals can be templated off of a rectangle the following size (HxW), but the actual hit area is smaller. Turkeys are the most difficult...

    Spotting Scope Help Please

    Looking for opinions on straight vs. angled spotting scopes here as well. Range time and silhouette shooting primarily.

    Matching stocks with the cz455

    You could order the Boyd's Pro Varmint for the savage and pretty well have the same stock for both. It wouldn't have pillars but would be the same stock. Or it looks like Bell and Carlson makes a new tactical style adjustable comb stock that might be similar.

    Gunsmithing Flush cup removal

    I haven't tried it yet, but will after hunting season on a Grayboe I have. One suggestion was to put a soldering iron on the cup for a bit and then break it loose like LRI says with the allen wrench.

    Cz 455 mount ?

    Depends on what you are looking for. I've had a DIP rail on a 22lr, and I've got BKL rings on my CZ455 with a 1" tubed scope. BKL also makes 30mm.

    Bartlein #3 or #3B in Grayboe Stock - Help needed

    The 3B might 'just' fit. Mine touched the fore end in one spot, so it could have been some paint or something that made the action sit just off center. I don't think that it will help any, but I have a 3B that is in a Manners EH3, which says it will fit up to a Bartlein #4. It 'just' fits into...

    Bartlein #3 or #3B in Grayboe Stock - Help needed

    I have a Bartlein #3 in a Terrain stock with the magnum channel. It fits fine, but my barrel did touch one of the sides of the stock near the fore end. I had it bedded, and the smith centered it in the channel. If the 3B fits any at all off center, I suspect it will hit the barrel channel. Nice...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Leveling Jig

    This seems like the 'only' option of those mentioned that addresses Frank's article on the front page about scope vs rifle cant. Do you use 25, 50, 100 yards/meters for the plumb line? Bipod or bags?

    Another Proof Research Record

    Some shooters use the same rifle for high power hunter and standard class silhouette shooting. The weight limit for hunter class is about 9 pounds, but the barrel must have a taper and cannot be a bull barrel. So, unless proof makes a barrel with a taper, you couldn't use it for hunter class...

    New Tikka T3X CTR...non 1" moa

    You could also check with Copper Creek if you want. They would likely load some lead free for you, and it would be very consistent.

    Rifle Scopes alternatives to the CQBSS

    I kind of just went through this same process after I did a run and gun. I had a 3-15x50 XTRii on a 6.5 grendel. The grendel isn't the best caliber for these events, but it was too much scope. Primary arms has their platinum (ffp illuminated) 1-8x with a standard mil based reticle. It has...
