    Canted Scope vs Canted Rifle

    In Bryan Litz's Accuracy and Precision book he did a model of a 3 degree cant error (chosen because that is all the average person can resolve without a level). He modeled a 24.7" error at 1000 yards using a .308. The targets at my range are anything but level being in movable stands. It makes...

    Gunsmithing Muzzle Brake Timing

    This is interesting if you think about it. Imagine if you had a brake with a shim that was torqued to 15 ft-lb. Then timed the brake and torqued to 15 ft-lb. Why would the barrel act differently enough to notice? You will certainly see a difference with different design brakes, but the same...

    Feedback Good Guy List

    I just took possession of a rifle and extras from toddmonty . He was very easy to communicate with. Put forth effort above and beyond getting things shipped quickly. All items came packed well and in great condition. It would be a joy to purchase from him again in the future knowing I am...

    Need some help with 22LR build.

    Bunsen: You say there differences are minor yes, but you do say there are differences. You felt confident enough to actually say “this one is inherently more accurate then that one”, I would just like to know why. Why do you think the 64 benchrest is more accurate then the 64 MPR? Why does the...

    Need some help with 22LR build.

    Thanks bunsen for your accuracy rundown. I was wondering why the 54 sporter (i am assuming you mean the 17 series) is equal to a 64 MPR when the sporters have a lapped barrel in addition to the action changes. I would think with a better barrel you might see some accuracy increase. What...

    Need some help with 22LR build.

    Pinecone: Thanks, I had wondered why there was only one pillar. Also your build looks awesome and is very close to the route I would go if I decide on a 455. csdilligaf: Thanks for your input on the 1712. I am only going to get one nice 22 and then my next rifle will be a precision centerfire...

    Need some help with 22LR build.

    LR Newbie: I was looking at Volquartsen too but I read a few people though that their quality has dropped in recent years vs Kidd and Clark. People seemed to think that one's money went father with the later two. Bunsen: Thanks for finding that post, that does look like an easy fix! Thanks for...

    Need some help with 22LR build.

    BennY: Thanks for the info. I have never shot a 77/22 before and knowing that the bolt is smoother on the CZ and there was no noticeable difference in accuracy is good information. Bunsen27 and ivanthesane: Thanks for the info on the Anschutz, I did not know that the 64 shot as good or better...

    Need some help with 22LR build.

    I am in the market for a very accurate 22 and there are just too many options and I was hoping to get some opinions. This would be for range use so a heavier weight would be better. I do not compete so I don't need to fit any regulations. I would like to have it on a bipod to shoot from prone...
