McRees chassis are what I shoot most times. It is rare that I dont have a McRees on my rifles and I am talking a lot of rifles with McRees... and most times it is because he has no chasssis for those rifles, like my Steyr SSGs or that I have an operational requirement of shooting a different...

Superb Leupold VX6 7-42x56 the new VX6 is a superb scope, for me the best out there. I am posting a thread about my 2014 Fclass Europeans experience with it. Eduardo

we will miss Jeff JW3 Please tell Jeff that I will miss him !!! Eduardo

Re: New Steyr SSG08 27" long barrel Maybe I was too bold making affirmations. I can just say that reloaded ammo that loaded perfectly on rem 700 and FT/R Rem clones DID NOT load on the SSG08. I assumed that it was because of bullet seating depth as they where VISUALLY much longer than boxed...

hello list: I have written this post because the barrel I will talk about is available and can be ordered. It is not on the Steyr website as it is not ready for large volume orders.. But Hey, I could not keep ot for myself any longer. Rod (flims) asked me some questions about the SSG08 and from...

yes but... Do the camojob taking into account one issue: The "paint" is harder that some alum and steel parts and will eventually eat on them. I found that the hard way when the cerakote in my magazines eat the magazine latches.... My 0,02c Eduardo

USO SN3 is expensive BUT it is the best I have the SN3 on my 308 SSG08 and on my SSG08 338LM. Awesome scopes. Not on the same league as the fine Leupold M4 or even the cheaper but extraordinary value Sightron SIII. BUT If you want to get the best and dont mind expending some extra dollars...

Re: Nightforce Alternative SIGHTRONS are cheaper and to my experience a better value. I never liked the NXS too much, the clicks where.... sort of mushy. I shot the European FT/R with a loaned SIGHTRON and it is an awesome scope for the price. The adjustments feel very good and positive and...

Re: Are milrad knobs really better than moa knobs As simple as this: Competition shooting FT -FT/R : MOA as all targets are MOA based and correcting in MILS is not accurate enough. TACTICAL: MILS and never look back. Eduardo

Re: 308 twist and grooves selection for 1000yard F NineHotel: I shot a BARNARD SM last week at Bisley, But I am hearing all kinds of opinions depending on the forum asked.... and just wanted to try and get some facts. BR shooters say one thing, Palma Shooters another and we snipers have our...

Re: USO, S&B, NIGHTFORCE FULLY AGREE with you. I own all of them and shoot USO on my preferred rifles because it is EXACTLY what I want. The glass is very similar, anybody that says otherwise is not fair. By the way you have forgotten about leupold M4s, which are a fine piece too. Depending...

I have just returned from Bisley European Championships and my performance has raised some questions, that I pose for first hand 308 FT/R competitive shooters: .-I will use a BARNARD P or an S action .- 308 BARREL FOR FT/R with 155 bullets at +/- 3000fps (Sierra and Berger) QUESTIONS: 1.- lenght...

SN3 is the way to go. I am overly happy with my SN3 5-25x56 TPAL. Sometimes when mirage conditions are right I can distringuish faces at extreme distances. Not from two similar ones but a moustache or beard. I had never been able to do that with my prevous scopes (european top dollar) or...

Re: Storm Mountain Training is Storm the range with nice hills to shoot with steep angles? Ive seen some pictures and if memory does not fail you could shoot there to 1200-1500yards with more than 45 degrees down. Nice angle shooting training. Eduardo

After 20 years of not reloading I need to do so again. All these years I used Army sniper issue Lapua 170lock base ammo and it shoots very good. Now to be competitive in FT/R i need to reaload and shoot 155. BUT: Friends have been "borrowing" my stuff for years and I am left with nothing, and...

GO 155.... Fully agree: Go with 155. And if you find RUAGs NRA MATCH 155 berger loaded ammo.... thats as good as it gets too. Eduardo
