    Why is bolt action more accurate than semi?

    Re: Why is bolt action more accurate than semi? Short version could be something like this. Usually the triggers on bolt guns are crisper. Don't know the what the mechanisms are called, but in a bolt gun the firing pin is released and go in a straight line to the primer. In a semi there is...

    Air pressure/humidity/altitude/temperature etc

    Re: Air pressure/humidity/altitude/temperature etc I am going to step careful now. English is not my first language I could be wrong about this definition. But Density altitude is the altitude found from the air pressure using a standard model. Not necessarily the exact height above main...

    Air pressure/humidity/altitude/temperature etc

    Re: Air pressure/humidity/altitude/temperature etc You guesstimate it. In most cases it will be the same as the air. When I pick up my ammo its from a bunker that is kept at 8'C. So I need to take that into account If it has been lying in the sun it might be warmer. You can be a couple of...

    Air pressure/humidity/altitude/temperature etc

    Re: Air pressure/humidity/altitude/temperature etc Hi In my experience within those ranges it wont make a huge difference. But it will be noticeable. I usually don't shoot .223 but it will probably deviate more than a .308 or .338. Long story short. It will never be overkill to track these...

    Rifle Scopes 1 scope 2 rifles?

    Re: 1 scope 2 rifles? I would much rather have one high end scope in a quality mount, than two mid range. Switching the scope to another rifle takes you about 45 seconds. And max 5 rounds to rezero. Less when you have done it a few times and know the difference. Remember that if you have the...

    Range Report shooting in the wind

    Re: shooting in the wind Its hard to say. Except to stress again that the info your kestrel gives you is just a baseline. If you are sure that you are feeding your pda correct information then there is only one place to lay the blame. The shooter. One thing I see cause a lot of misses is...

    Range Report shooting in the wind

    Re: shooting in the wind Sounds like you have answered your own question. Sounds like you have been misjudging the wind. Wind at the target is rarely the same as your location. As for advise. Be patient and question everything that happens with your shot. Learn to use the environment. Dust...

    Gas prices in my country sucks

    Well. The price on gas just went above 8,8$ per gallon. I am starting to get pissed off living in this country. This combined with a government that thinks putting extra taxes on food that contains fat or sugar is a good idea, makes you want to scream. I am seriously considering going of the...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Sidearm carry

    Re: Sidearm carry In my experience don't put anything on your front. No mags, no guns, nothing. The best platform i can recommend you looking at is a mollebelt you can attach a holster to. But its really up to what options you are left with, due to department regulations. Sometimes I carried...

    DSR-1 is a piece of S#^T

    Re: DSR-1 is a piece of S#^T A while back I shoot that rifle quite a bit. Like you said. It is the worst piece of overpriced crap that has ever entered the market.

    Why no love for the H&K 417?

    Re: Why no love for the H&K 417? Hi I am currently using this particular rifle in afghanistan. We use a supressed HK 417S with a 3-12 S&B PMII, when operating in the greenzones in the helmandprovince. It was adopted by the army for doing just that. The reason they picked that rifle was that...

    Looking for new SWAT entry weapon

    Re: Looking for new SWAT entry weapon Really nice options in my opinion. I became really fond of the surefire QD suppressors when borrowing one. Some of our SF here use them on a short barrel carbine, and dropped by with one when we where out shooting. He said that they had experienced that...

    Looking for new SWAT entry weapon

    Re: Looking for new SWAT entry weapon Blue Line I am only writing here because my curious nature makes it impossible not to. But what other requirements do you have for your new weaponsystem. It sounds like people including yourself favor the AR platform. Probably a great choice. But what...

    Catching brass?

    Re: Catching brass? We were not taught to catch the brass but encouraged to practice it. So I 'ninjacatch'the brass everytime on the range. Its not really that usefull in the real world, for lots of reasons. It does require a pretty aggresive reload, witch makes an undesired loud noise...
