    Very confused. Dope changed big time? What caused this?

    I was tuning my Kestral AB to my 6 creedmoor this weekend and I saw the same thing. I had shot a couple weeks prior at PNTC and was seeing 3090 as the velocity in ~85* temps using brass on it's first firing. This weekend I was at TVP with all once fired brass and the same load to continue...

    Official MidwayUSA Codes

    The code still works as of today. Used it to get $20 off a Kestrel 4500NV Bluetooth w/ AB.

    Nightforce Precision Shootout at PNTC Aug 23 & 24

    Yes. There is a Long Range Challenge and a DMR match on June 28th. The LRC is prone and the DMR is mostly positional and is setup for AR platforms. You can run a bolt gun if you want though. Also, the Frontier range is available on Fridays by reservation with targets to 1150 - 1200 yards.

    New Guy from CT

    My son went to BESS at Rotten Grotten 2 years ago. He's at The Pearl now assigned to a fast attack. Wait till your nephew spends 7 months at sea in one of those little tubes and then see what he thinks. LOL I wish him luck earning his fish. I have all the respect in the world for those guys...

    Chargemaster or beam scale? Your opinions...

    I'm happy with my Chargemaster - it works just fine. I played with a Satorius for a while, but it drifted too much to be useful. I have heard the GemPro 250 does not. The trick with the Chargemaster is setup. Of course there is the McDs straw trick, which helps a lot and the ability to get...

    Thunder Valley Precision 2014 Schedule

    There were 10 for the day Head Hunter and 16 for the night Head Hunter. I think 14 was high in the day shoot and several had 11 in the night shoot. Weather for the day shoot was off and on rain, wind and a short hail storm while sako bob was shooting.

    Yes - It's usually a good idea to shoot it suppressed during the day to get your dope

    Member Link Up VA & WV Members

    Peacemaker has worked out well and I have taken advantage of all the multi-discipline options available there. Good people there too. I thought I would use Silver Eagle Group more than I have, so I have been waffling on cancelling my membership for a while as my 1 year commitment is up. No...

    **6 Creedmoor**

    So, I just got my Rem 700 back from GAP rebarreled in 6 Creedmoor. Loaded up 100 rounds with 42.0gr of H4350 and Berger 105 Hybrids. I did a break in on Friday and shot the short course on Saturday at TVP. I was clean until target 10 when I dialed the wrong dope. (Argh) I got off...

    Kudos to PNTC MD, ROs and staff for putting on a very good, well organized event. The facilities have endless possibilities for this kind of shooting and I can only see comps getting better in the future. Congrats to Dave and Dave, Ryan and Tom on superlative shooting.

    6.5 Creedmoor

    1. I did get a Hornaday Headspace guage. 2. The issue was that the lock ring on the die had turned about 1/4 turn. The cases in question all had .010" of headspace. I was able to go through all my reloaded lots and determine which ones were bad. Those were all pulled apart and set aside. 3...
