I just spoke with Mike yesterday to get in the que for a .260 gain twist barrel for the Tikka CTR. Thanks Mike, so nice to talk with someone who knows what the Hell there talking about!!!

lowlight, can you confirm this is a stand alone system? Once its set up with the phone app and ballistic information is dumped into the scope then you would not need a LRF in the field? Thinking hunting applications and saving weight by not carrying a LRF.

Tubb just dropped a 2000 lb knowledge BOMB!! Listening to this one for the second time. Thanks Frank!

Correct the virgin brass overall length is 2.200" to 2.206" Looks like I have some long necks on this brass.I am able to load to .008 off the lands with the 130 VLDT's. I guess I better do a BUNCH of trimming and get this brass to 2.025" and run some tests.

I have four Noveske rifles, of which one is a 14.5" N6. The N6 really is not something that special. It is just a rebadged Armalite AR10 with a Noveske Polygonal barrel. John Noveske was a shooter. When I was in his shop having a 12" Crusader upper built for My M-16, he said to me, "now your...

Well, miracles of miracles has happened. Whoever the Post Office released my receiver set to returned it to the Post Office and notified my FFL, so I now have my Area 53 Snipers Hide receiver set with rail in my hot little hand! All I need is an A2 receiver extension and Its .260 time! The...

TBA 30BA paper has cleared but I haven't made it to my dealer in Anchorage to pick it up yet. Hopefully next month! I have 3 rifles I'm going to run the TBA can on, including a .260 on the Snipers Hide, Area 53 receiver set. I'm looking forward using the TBA can because I'm one of the unlucky...

I'm impressed with the Whidden Dies, very consistent. 3 days ago Midway had 130 Bergers and 127 Barnes XLR's Until that Day, Darkop

Well looks like I won't be getting mine. Seems the Post Office released it to "SOMEONE" without a signature. It wasn't my FFL and now the USPO has no idea who it was given to! Charles at Area 53 has initiated the proper paperwork so I guess I'll see what the Postal Inspector can come up with...

Ken quoted me 10 months and I had it in THREE!!! I sent 30 rounds today and am VERY IMPRESSED! very low recoil and the action is smooth as silk. Barrel is broken in and showed no copper after 4 rounds and 8 patches. Just need to play with seating depth and I'll be golden and ready to take it...
