If during the execution of a valid search warrant evidence of additional illegal goods or activities are found, those goods may be seized (will) and you can/will be charged with additional crimes. Generally speaking, only those areas that conform to the physical dimensions of the illegal goods...

You may very well be saying that tongue-in-cheek but if not, I think this is the one I heard about being incredibly lucky timing. The speed brakes are open and it's in landing configuration. Most models don't use that configuration because it's "dirty" and clean sells more. Everything looks...

I'm referring to the variations of the 6-6.5 mm or so rounds. It's easy to get clean air out to 1400+ yds with a 6.5CM.

The point is to go to the furthest distance that you are both accurate and repeatable that still has clean air. That will give you the most accurate data when calculating a new BC. The 6 series bullets out of a 26-30 inch barrel is going to be way out there. However, take a standard .308 and...

The second half of your statement is spot on. Humidity has very little to do with ballistics. Try running your calculations at 0% and 100% and you'll see essentially no change in the ballistic performance of the round. That's why many shooters, as a technique, set humidity at 50% for all...

59F is part of how ISA (Int'l Standard Atmosphere; 59F and 29.92 in.) is defined but as Mach is temperature dependent, so is your MV. Given the same altitude, your MV will change as the temperature changes. Temp up, MV up and vice versa. As you have a temp rise while staying at the same...

Hope this helps. TRUING A ROUND. A technique I teach is to true at the longest distance possible, with that distance defined as where bullet velocity has dropped to 1.2M. This ensures laminar flow over the bullet just prior to the large drag rise that occurs in the transonic region. The bullet...

LOVE the narration!

Just as long as everyone knows it's the photographer's arm not her breast

I know you've already decided but I use a Voodoo Tactical DB and like it a lot. Like others have mentioned it fits nicely inside the Pelican for air travel or long trips. One thing to note is that Pelican came out with an "air" version of their popular rigs that are up to 40% lighter. For some...

No I didn't know that about RAVAGE88. That is excellent intel, thanks a lot for passing that on! Just shows you the talent we have here on the 'Hide.

FWIW, the Kahles sunshade seems to be pretty difficult to find right now. Juan (Mil/LE rep) at Mile High Shooting hooked me up with the S&B sunshade (971-45650) and it fits great. I have two different ranges I shoot at, both on a 180 heading and the sun seems to drill right down the center of...

Completed it but would have felt better if I saw a privacy or opt-out statement.

Oh, for those wondering, my stock does not have the mini-chassis; it is pillared. Right now I'm experimenting with 45/55.

I talked with Manners and here's what they say. "If it has pillars in it I would look into 45 inch'lbs to start with and go up to 65. The specs for the mini chassis is 65 front and 45 rear. That is a solid piece of Aluminum in the mini chassis so it can handle it. With a bare stock with pillars...

Thanks for the help guys. I found a reference (although not on Manners' website) indicating the forward action screw should be 65 in/lbs and the rear 45 in/lbs. I'll verify tomorrow and post the update. ​​​​​​I took the stock off tonight to check the name and it's C. Bagnoli. When you...

I don't recall the names of the two gunsmiths that used to work for BOP/UGSW but I know at least one of them has his own shop now. I talked with one a year ago when I picked up a lightly used BOP Recon model in 6.5CM and he said the builder's initials would be on the bottom of the receiver...

Appreciate the replies. That's part of what I was getting at ... it might not be too much to do if the chassis didn't require any bedding. Terry, you bring up a great point about building the rifle with Robert. I think I had heard of one person in the past that had done that but had completely...

All three of our sons are military officers and shooters. When the youngest returns from his overseas deployment in the next few months, he wants to build a long range precision rifle with me as some father-son time. He's decided a budget of $5K for rifle and another $2.5-3K for the scope...

Mike, You had mentioned that although Minox doesn't make a sunshade or ARD for the ZP 5-25, you knew of one that fit. Was it the PR or TT 5-25 ARD that fit? I really miss having either one on my scope as two different ranges I go to both have south-facing firing lines. As you can imagine, the...
