    Range Report 6-dof

    Haha, yup. It was on my "to-do" list for many years. Took some serious reading... I'll have to check out the paper you mention, I don't think I've read that one.

    Range Report 6-dof

    Pretty sure I have that exact paper on the .223. Done by the Army BRL. Lots of partial data, very little complete. I was able to learn quite a bit just by modeling the 168 Sierra but it has odd dynamic stability issues. The more I learn about what can cause dispersal of my groups, the more I...

    shooting beyond 500 yards

    Spin drift is a difficult animal to predict. Yes, in a laboratory environment, it is an easy phenomenon to produce. Given right hand twist and a perfect departure from a barrel, it will drift to the right as it flies down range. The drift at 1k could be anywhere between 6 and 12 inches. However...

    I made 6mmRem from 270Win, but....

    Ditto. That's my method for 6mmAI. What bullets do you push? I use 115 DTACs at 3100 fps. Good stuff.

    Stalker at my house

    I imagined someone loosing a wild bobcat on the guy that just fell in the punji pit.... But yeah using the tracked machine to bury them is also a good idea.

    Reba played an awesome role... "Magazine!" Oh and don't forget Burt's attempt to by hydrashock hp's in the local store. Classic!

    Range Report 6-dof

    Anyone out there have experience with 6DOF analysis on bullet flight? I have done 3DOF for work, thesis, etc, and recently wrote a 6DOF just for fun (yeah I know...) using Robert McCoy's book, "the launch and flight dynamics of symmetric projectiles." I was able to duplicate the 6DOF results for...

    Trigger pound pull

    Dang if I'm I'm not completely out of popcorn.... Ok, here's a somewhat related thought. All the new menbers eagerly seek their 100th post so they can then sell things on here also. I think I'm still only on the 90's... I don't post much. This guy has cleared 100 in mere days. I've been a member...

    Trigger pound pull

    Just a funny tale about .308's at long range. I took a buddy out to ping steel at 1000 yards. It was his first time at 1k. He had a modified rem700 SPS with 20" barrel and was shooting 168 Amax at unknown velocity.... I spotted while he fired and we walked in the impacts until we finally got a...

    How old when you first broke 1000 yds?

    I was 23 or so. The "600" yard range had a view across a canyon. My new at the time Leica rangefinder lit up a rock at 1150 yards so I started chipping out chunks of the rock with a .308. The rock was probably the size of a car but still, first time long range fun.

    trail cams for photos of cars?

    The problem with calling the cops is that some of those trouble makers are used to it. I'm in a cul-de-sac and we have 1 bad apple to deal with. Grandma rents the house and then brought in all the misfits under her. 1 is in and out of jail, the others are generally loud and occassionally high...

    Gunsmithing Local Gunsmith Recommendation (Dayton OH)?

    Haven't met Tom but I did make it out to his range last summer. Nice setup he's got out there. I'll check out short action customs as well. Thanks for the replies. --- aim small miss small ---

    Gunsmithing Local Gunsmith Recommendation (Dayton OH)?

    I'm looking into a .300 blackout bolt action build. I own a stock and plan to do my own bedding/freefloating but need a local smith to put together action and barrel for me. Living near Dayton OH now, anyone have a recommendation for a gunsmith? --- aim small miss small ---
