Interesting stuff. I haven't been doing this long but I would have never though a 30 base would be needed to reach a 1000 with a 12 x42 nxs. My receiver is an older rem700 with a 20 base. I have a 12 x42 nxs and I am about 30 minutes on the scope at 1000 with 185s and a 100 yard zero. My zero...

I switched out my BDL follower, spring , etc and put in a closed cell foam piece,...worked like a charm. I'm right at 18 pounds. If different scales catch me one day, I could always unscrew my bolt knob, hah.

XTR,...yep a BDL but I do have an alum single shot "slide" in place of the stock follower. I'm going to remove it and the spring and try the closed cell foam idea.

Yeah, I feel like I'm so close that I could get snagged on simple variations between scales. I think I'll try the "foam follower" trick to see how much that's takes off. I can also take the knob off the sinclair fine adjustment and shave a once or two

Just wondering where you f t/r guys are coming in on your rifle weight,...how close to the 18.15 lb limit? I just had a new cheek rest installed on my stock and also got a sinclair gen 3 bipod. I have an old post office digital scale and I'm right at 18.04. Anybody else running that...

I have used the Foam factory two different times for pelican case foam. No complaints at all.

MHL29,..yeah I could see the extra grip printing / digging into your side. I by no means skinny,..about 6'1 and 250#. I typically carry my 245 or a G23. The G23 is really close to the same overall profile as the 245 but you can get your entire hand around the G23. The deal is that the 245...

Yep,..the 220 compact and my 245 are essentially to same gun with exception of the beavertail. What I am looking at is the 220 SAS with has the upper receiver of a 245 / 220 compact and a lower receiver of a 220.

Hey All, Just looking for opinions,..I know this is a lot of personal preference but I wanted to get some thoughts anyway. I currently have a P245 that I really like and it shoots good. The only gripe I have is that its grip is obviously the short compact type and its always been somewhat...

SEC,..Big 12,...Big 10,..who cares? All are just football teams,..one team lines up in front of the other and one walks away the victor. OU was talked down by everybody,..predicted to lose by everybody,...and just happened to play their best game of the season and thumped Alabama. It is as...

Wow,..that is amazing. Thanks for posting

I live in Lvll and Mark Penrod build my rifle,..excellent job. I would go back to him in a second.

All the above is good stuff,....love the wind flags in Baghdad. The mirage seems to work best for me. Not that I discount the wind, but when looking at a target through my scope and I see a mirage running 4 o'clock to 9 o'clock,...hold low right and send it.

I have a RCBS auto dispenser and I normally check it with my RCBS beam scale each time I set it up. I've been getting out of that habit, but your story has convinced me to be a little more disciplined.

I use 43.5 of varget for the Berger 185 hybrid in my rifle. I worked up and got pressure signs about 44 to 44.5 so I backed off. I get about 2720 fps,...95 Palma chamber with a 28" 4 groove Krieger barrel.

I should have noted. If you want the information about the mid range shoot in Borden, go to the Southern Indiana Rifle and Pistol Club website. Like I said we have a mid range match this Sunday,..20 rds at 300,..20 rds at 500,..and them a final 20 rds at 500',...60 rds total. We start around...

I attended a 1000 yard match there about two months ago. You need to email the contact person on their websit because you have to provide some information so you can get on base. As far as the shoot, it was fine. Only about 8 shooters were there but everybody was friendly and the range was...

Thanks. I'll look them up. I've heard about that place but I thought it was a strictly training facility. I'll check it out.

I live in KY but I'm from Okla. Going to see my mom and dad for the forth and I'm taking my F/TR gun so my dad and I can go play a little Any of you guys near Tulsa know of a public range, you know the pay $10 and shoot all day,,kind of place? I know of a public range near Sapulpa but...

$150 / 100??? I just don't think I will choke out that kind of cash. Have plenty for the moment, think i will just want and see. I'll go back to shooting mil surplus LC before paying that price.
