    Advanced Marksmanship Does target shadow have an effect on dope?

    Back in the 90's I shot a LOT of highpower which was, of course, open sights. When cloud cover came & went, the target appeared either larger or smaller, depending on light conditions. It definitely made a difference in elevation.

    Borka EFK2 vs. FixIt Sticks

    I took my Borka kit to work & had the tool calibration guy check it out. At first he was skeptical, then impressed as he verified the torque values at various settings. The Borka kit is very versitile & I'm glad I bought it. Having said that, there would be considerable weight savings in just...

    80 gr. Bullet at 2900?

    I guess it's been a while since I checked in! LOL! I'm shooting a RPR with a 20" barrel. The Hornady ELDs are seated .010" off the lands, which gives me an over all length of 2.385". The MDT mags will allow me to go out to around 2.550", so it looks like I need a longer barrel, chambered for a...

    80 gr. Bullet at 2900?

    Hey Frank! Several times on the podcast you've mentioned that a .223 firing a 77-80 grain bullet at 2900 fps can do petty well at distance. What kind of a load are you using? The best I've been able to do is 2775 with 80 gr. Hornady ELD Match & 26.2 gr. of 2000-MR. Even that's showing pressure...

    Excellent AR500 packages for the holidays! Waterjet cut for the hardest edge possible.

    There was a Christmas special on five square plates, 4" to 12" for $99 & shipping was an extra $13. This was a *great* deal & I made sure my local shooting friends knew about the it.

    Prescription Shooting Glasses

    I use the Rudy Project glasses too. A little speedy, but I can switch the dominant side lens out depending on whether I need to focus on the front site of a pistol or long range (2 different prescriptions).

    Dirty suppressors affect accuracy/precision negatively.

    My Thunderbeast started opening up my groups so I took it back to the factory (only 50 miles away) & they immediately weighed it. A brand new 30P (if you could still get it) weighs 16 ounces, mine weighed 24 ounces - a full 8 ounces of carbon & copper build up. Thunderbeast offers a free...
