    Gunsmithing Action truing fixture idea

    That answers the question to why no one else called that out. I did not know that, thank you. But even if the interrupted cuts weren't an issue, would that additional operation even make hero's proposed process time-and-materials beneficial over indicating the action bore true?

    How would you put the sleeve on the bolt though? The lugs are on one end and the bolt handle is on the other.

    Rifle Scopes Scope Reticle Design and Sighting Strategies

    Nevada - I'm on the same page with you regarding the NRA/Benchrest vs. Precision/Practical rifle shooting. I didn't get into F-class or Benchrest after I had to stop sling-shooting in 2009, there's just something about holding the rifle up yourself and the precision rifle sport requires a more...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Reticle Design and Sighting Strategies

    Thank you all very much for your inputs - the varying approaches to using the reticle were what I wanted to learn more about when I started this thread. I don't want to plan to use a certain strategy before I even start this game as it more than likely will change as I adapt. A part of me...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Reticle Design and Sighting Strategies

    RobertB - that is excellent advice and very helpful, thank you. It was drilled into me early in my Palma shooting career never to let a shot go downrange without knowing what the windage on the rear sight was, so I can totally relate. To clear up your wind shooting approach - did you mean to...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Reticle Design and Sighting Strategies

    NevadaZielmeister - one more salient point you made was regarding time stress. Lets say I spend 90% of my time dialing in the actual solutions for the targets with the turrents, so with say, the 10% of the situations which a tree reticle would be useful, perhaps it is a better strategy to...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Reticle Design and Sighting Strategies

    NevadaZeilmeister - my experience is with string-firing in static target/distance situations, mostly with iron sights. With the irons, I'd dial in the elevation and windage and twist the knob as necessary for wind shot-to-shot. With the scope, there was more of a hold-over for wind due to how...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Reticle Design and Sighting Strategies

    RobertB - thanks for the welcome! I used to explore SH back in the early 2000's and now more than ever this site is a valuable information source, especially given the talent pool occupying it. I agree with the Horus reticle being a bit busy for my taste - I'd rather not have my field of view...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Reticle Design and Sighting Strategies

    I agree wholeheartedly with dialing in the solution if time permits - that's the perfect scenario. Given my lack of experience in this type of shooting competition, I haven't developed anything more than a theoretical plan for the different shooting problems that would be presented. In the case...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Reticle Design and Sighting Strategies

    Hello All, This is my first post on SH, I've lurked for a while as most do and finally joined a few months ago. Post count will always be an issue for me as this site is so inundated with information and feedback as well as varying opinions and viewpoints that with some exploring I can piece...
