For me, either my Smith 41 or my Hi Standard Military Trophy 107. Both with 7" bbls and a extra 5.25 for the Smith. I also have a Buckmark target with a 5" bbl and the gold trigger but it not the trigger on either the Smith or the HS. Diabetic tremors have removed my ability to shoot any of...

I received my very lightly used Accurate Ordinance built rifle with an unknown round count about 6 months ago. The rifle came equipped with a Rock Creek 24" bbl in 6.5 CM. I checked the bore while bore sighting my scope and only ran a damp patch followed by a dry patch through it. Both came out...

All this talk of semantics and that and you guys forgot the least precise component of the system, namely, the shooter.

Not for nothin' but it depends on how foamy my beer is.

How to make a Mini-14 or an AK group at 200 yards? Load a magazine, assume port arms position. Run forward 175 yards, drop to the prone and commence firing.

I don't think it should change much. I shoot my LWRC Reaper the same way as I do the Creedmoor. For that matter, my Ruger Gunsite Scout. The Reaper has a tank style muzzle brake, the Scout just a flash hider that came on it. If your upper body is relaxed, you can absorb the recoil as a part...

I shoot mostly from a bench and at either 100 or 200 yards. I use an Atlas bipod and a rear bag. As a result, I have no support hand and my firing hand is only applying minimal rearward pressure, maybe only a pound or so. The gun nestles into my shoulder pocket as a result of my lightly...

I would say gun fit as a first guess. Either length of pull or cast or both. I have had two, other than stock, identical shotguns, one of which I could shoot all week long with never so much as a mark and the other would leave me with a big ol' bruise after a single 25 shot round of trap. The...

GG, not to contradict Sterling's superb instruction on the matter, but I learned a different way to mount a gun. It doesn't really apply to shooting prone supported, at least not all of it, but does to all the other positions in terms of establishing a good relationship between the butt of the...

Ahah! There is your problem, the gun belongs in your shoulder pocket which is just below your collar bone and inside your anterior deltoid muscle. Your shoulder blade is on your back. My former method of handling recoil is to tense every muscle and close my eyes just before the shot breaks...

If I may offer a suggestion to make tracking easier. It won't work in every case but hard crossers at skeet or international trap are best dealt with by catching the target from behind, swinging through it and, without stopping the gun, press the trigger when the appropriate lead is obtained...

My choice would be a 3.5-21 Bushnell Elite Tactical. G2 reticle and zero stop. For a mount, I went with a Spuhr 34mm with a 20 MOA angle. Plenty of elevation for a 100 yard zero and the G2 reticle is clear as a bell. Glass is not quite up to my Swarovski but it will suffice for anything up to...

There is one on my 6.5 CM barrel and another in the works so I can trade out the offensive tank gun brake on my REPR. The tank gun brake is effective but blew the hat off one of the range officers that was walking behind me when I happened to touch off a round. Too rude. The brake on the 6.5...

I bought mine used on this site. A bit of trepidation as it wasn't cheap. I was new to the sport and the gun looked good in photos. Added a nice scope and a Spuhr mount with Atlas bipod and I was GTG. Took a bit before I was able to really evaluate the gun. Had to learn how to shoot. The...

Inconsistent: a. Sight picture = focus on target b. Parallax slightly off c. Cheek weld - Either LOP or height.

Everything depends on the reticle and the users ability to interpolate (break down) the reticle. Think of a pressure gauge with major marks at 10, 20, 30....60 PSI. Now, it is easy to tell where 15 PSI may be, right? 1/2 way between 10 and 20. That gives you a resolution of 5 PSI. For most...

JBM ballistics confirms 4.5 mils with the data you gave.

Do yourself a favor and stop spraying whatever down the barrel. All that is needed is a small, very small coating of oil to protect the bore from moisture. I have nearly 50 guns in my collection and I shoot them all. Most I ever do is swab out the bore with a couple of drops of oil on a...

Toss the INOX and any WD40 you have laying around over the nearest fence or use it on a padlock or something else already rusted. It is really a penetrating oil, not a preservative. I use a couple of drops of a good gun oil on a patch, stroke it down the barrel a couple of times and then follow...

You probably cannot do it with zero rounds but a max of 3 rounds fired to establish a short range zero for the Bergers would probably do it. Get a zero at 100 yards with the Bergers and then look at the projected 600 yard come up and your should be close.l Your dials should give you the...
