    First Precision Rifle suggestion, from these five?

    Bergara HMR PRO, all you need to add is a Little Bastard muzzle break. I have been competing with mine for two years and like it LOTS. Accurate with factory Hornady Match ammo (.4inch @100yd) great trigger and stock I am good with. By the time the barrel shoots out you can put a better barrel on...

    Rock Island 1903 help.

    This rifle is basically in its as built WWI configuration. It's not "original" as it first came out of the Armory, as it has been through arsenal reconditioning. What is interesting and unique is its a long serving military item unmolested since leaving service. It might not be pristine WWI era...

    Ruger Precision Rimfire sub minute?

    I have been in the 22lr game for about two years. Our club has put on steel challenge type shoots and prone paper target matches. Working out my two KIDD 10/22's I found that ammo like SK-RM and Eley Club is where you begin to get sub MOA consistently. Augila Extra was very so so and Federal...

    Bergara or VuDoo

    If you want to compete in NRL22 then get a KIDD and put it in a Victor Titan stock. If you want to train for running a bolt gun get the Tikka/Bergara/Voodoo. I squaded in a match with a shooter that was having feed issues with a Voodoo, it happened but only saw it that one time. One...

    NRL.22 Scope Features that are most important

    I have been competing in NRL22 now for two years. Right now I am running a Vortex Diamondback Tactical 4-16X44. Its FFP, 2MOA marks on reticle and BEST of ALL (very important in NRL22) parallax down to 20 yards. I zero at 50 yards so I do not want a Zero stop, that way I can dial below 50yd...

    Just ordered a Vudoo V-22, what ammo?

    I shoot two KIDD 10/22's one shoots SK rifle match .35 at 50 yards and the other likes Ely Club and shoots it into .45 at 50 yards. I have not tried anything more and this gets me all the accuracy I need for NRL 22 competitions. Good luck let us know how it goes.

    Kestrel... essential or just nice to have?

    When I hunt I plug the altitude and assumed hunting temp into Strelock and make a chart out to 500yds (as far as I want to shoot hunting) and then if phone dies no problem.

    Kestrel... essential or just nice to have?

    Added a Density Altitude app to my phone. For matches just go to DA app and plug in values to Strelok.

    Rifle Scopes Parallax Question for .22

    Just shot a NRL22 match at the Phoenix Rod and Gun Club this last weekend. i have a Vortex Diamondback Tactical 4-16 that let me set parallax down to 25 yards for the KYL rack. I could clearly see the 1/4 rod. My GF was shooting with a scope that did not allow parallax adjustment that close...

    Rifle Scopes Current state of MOA and MIL

    Been shooting matches going on two years. Still using MOA and after Marine DI's and Navy flight instructors you don't much let any piddly shit bug you. That being said at matches MIL's is the standard language and its easy enough to use.

    Communal ownership “by any means necessary.”

    It's not so much how much a CEO makes but how he manipulates the company to juice his incentive pay. From direct experience at the same corporation we have had great CEO's and total dumb a## CEO's. The dumb a## ones will do short term stunts that make the earnings stock/look good get their big...

    Which 22lr rifle

    Consider a KIDD barreled action and order the other parts and build it out yourself then drop it into a TITAN stock. Did that twice to great result for a bit less. Also keep an ear out for how the Bergara BXR runs. The Bergara BXR half the price of a KIDD.

    Case Rupture

    I saw a Johnson Automatic Rifle blown to shreds because round was fired off before bolt locked into battery. Escaping gasses can cause a lot of damage. I had a 22 Hornet that would separate case heads after a few reloading with normal powder loads, all I could figure was the chamber or sizing...

    Which 22lr rifle

    I ordered a KIDD barreled action and all the other KIDD parts and built out the rifle and put it in a TITAN stock. Cost about $977 and with SK Rifle Match ($7 box 50 when on sale) shoots .3. The KIDD super grade is listed at $1280. Consider the Ruger Competition and its listed online at "Buds"...

    Kidd 1022 16.5" vs 20"

    I have a KIDD 16.5 & 20. Shooting them has shown the 16.5 to be more accurate. Shooting SK Rifle Match I get .25 - .30 groups at 50 yards.
