    DIY Barricade Stop on a Boyd's Pro Varmint Stock (CZ455)

    NRL22 Optics

    Hoping someone can point me in the direction of some reasonable (<$500) optics for a NRL22 build. Im currently sharing my S&B PM2 5-25 which, while super clear and reliable...is a bit overkill. Things I'm looking for: - zoom range anywhere between 3-15x (3-12, 4-14, 4-16, etc...) - mil-mil -...

    Hornady 140gr AMAX vs BTHP?

    Does anyone have experience with these two bullets as well as the g7 BC for the BTHP? The price difference is significant enough and I can't find much info on results with the BTHP. Cheers!

    Varget Lot Variance vs Rifle's Nodes

    If i've found an accurate load of 44.7gr Varget behind a Nosler CC 168gr for my 700 aac-sd at 2625fps. I now have to switch lots of varget, and will continue with the 44.7gr. My question is: if my MV goes up or down (and groups open up slightly)...should I adjust my powder weight until I...

    What Makes 175gr SMK better than 168gr?

    Im shooting 168gr SMKs right now at 2625fps and finding that theyre dying out ~800m (agrees with what JBM says). I plug in data for 175gr SMKs with MVs posted by other members here and its saying that the bullets will go sub-sonic at around 900m. Im looking at pushing out to 1000m with my...

    Barrel Nodes

    Looking for input on finding barrel nodes. Are they based on Velocity, Barrel Pressure, both? The reason I ask is, if I found a good node with LOAD "X" and switch powder, lot, etc... could I achieve the same results if LOAD "Y" had a matching MV or pressure?
