    Solar telescope filter for daytime zeroing?

    I had an idea pop into my head the other day and thought I would throw it out there. If a solar viewing filter can make it "eye safe" to stare at the sun with a telescope, could it be added to a night vision clip-on to make daytime zeroing "tube safe"? I've found a filter that would fit my...

    NO-FAB rebar target stands

    I've been using this setup since about 2014 without issue and haven't seen it online anywhere so here it is: All you need is four 1/2" iron pipe tee fittings and five pieces of 5/8" rebar (#5). I had 20' pieces of rebar cut into 4' lengths at a concrete supply place. The only work you might...

    Precision Rifle Gear "custom" bipod feet

    I love my elite iron bipod but I prefer simple rubber feet on bipods for all around use. Elite Iron uses fine thread bolts for the feet so I got some Leophoto tripod feet, took the 1/4x20 studs out and made some 1/4x20 to 1/4x28 adapter studs out of some bolts. They fit right on the bipod like...

    Gunsmithing Whiskey 3 CIP feeding fix

    I finally fixed my M2013/KRG W3 CIP setup. I'll try to keep this simple, here's what I've done over the last couple of years: 1: Reduce the vertical play with the longer mag catch that KRG sells. Just file, try, repeat until the magazine latches easily and sits up against the bottom of the...

    Precision Rifle Gear Easy ammo pouch

    I made a nice little ammo wallet for my 300 Norma out of a molle accessory pouch. It's just a bit of foam in the bottom with a 20 rd double sided ammo card. I held it in with some gutted 550 cord that's tied through the drain grommet. Soooo much better than a plastic box.

    Terrapin X in pelican 1120

    Thought I'd post this since it worked out pretty slick. I trimmed down the foam from the factory packaging until it dropped in. Less than $40 for the case and it's probably the smallest one a terrapin x would fit in. 🤘

    Magnum caliber truing distances

    Anybody have recommendations for distances to true kestrel ballistics with a 300 Norma? This is a 230gr Berger hybrid target going 2960s according to my magnetospeed. Kestrel said 7.6 mils to 1170yds and I ended with 7.8 which trues to 2940 fps if I adjust velocity. Is this a reasonable...

    New brass vs fired brass math

    I've started to come to the conclusion that a lot of the common high/low node charge weights might have more to do with fired vs new brass than most people consider and that it definitely needs to be mentioned in the load data context. For instance, 77 smk with 8208 xbr, most guys will say about...

    KRG Whiskey 3 M2013 338 CIP feeding issue

    Has anyone else had an issue with the feed ramp hanging over the tips of the rounds? The amount the ramp hangs over led me to believe the action wasn't cip length (later confirmed to be cip). I know you can adjust the fit of the mags by moving the plastic trigger guard and skins around, but...
