Hi All, I got home and realized that my spotting scope didn't get packed... somewhere between starting loading, the awards ceremony, then finishing loading I thought I had picked it up but it did not find its way home. So.... if anyone picked up a Nikon Fieldscope with green nylon cover on...

Contact is Kristina Kruse, Action Golf Cart Rentals & Sales kkruse@actiongolfcartrentals.com I got a quote for $263 + Fuel($25) + Delivery Charge for a 2-week rental (10/1-10-15). Here is the note I got from her:

The winning was spread around, with yardages topped by Tom Evans, Paul Holland, Lowel Frie, and Bill Pond. These guys even managed to win the grands, but the 2 Gun was a three-peat by Larry White. Picts of the results are attached.

I researched this a lot back when I was laying out new stock designs. First, to Mr. Turner, there is no dimension that references the bottom of the barrel. All critical dimensions are to the bore centerline. A sketch supports the legal description, not re-defines it. Second, the "flaw" in the...

Hi Gene, Glad to hear that you want to give our sport a try. Check out the match calendar at nbrsa.org for some dates of matches that within a reasonable (for BR shooting) distance... La Grand OR Tacoma WA Sacramento, CA The NorthWest Regional Director Dan Zacanti might have a few more...

If you ever want to 'shop' aluminum and are in the Colorado front range area (north of Denver) stop in at Alreco -- its 5 acres of aluminum -- scrap, sheets, new, old, extrusions, drops, plates, absolutely every size and shape you could think of. There is a solid chunk sitting in the yard that...

There is actually some technique to using the joystick. I've seen people struggle and then noted that their top was positioned too high, causing them to have hand swinging in open air when operating the stick. Lower the top until you can rest the heal of your hand on the bench while manipulating...

Two cents worth... shooting a rail well is more like shooting a bag gun than you might think. I've seen more matches lost because of shooting fast than I've seen won because someone could shoot faster. My Bat 3L top-loader nearly got kicked down the road when I bounced the gun at last years Nats...

Time to give a little back... I got tired of searching my harddrive for my barrel weight calculator/spreadsheet, so I built one on a webpage that I can always find. Straight tapers only, includes factors for receiver tenon, major straight shank, taper, minor straight shank (tuner), and...

I love my Jewell triggers, but my competition guns now all sport the BnAs. I would rank BnA triggers and Seb NEO rests as the two best investments you can make in your competition Benchrest setup. Expensive, but both make a difference that you can feel within a couple targets over their closest...

The nodes with LT31 seem to run about .4-.5 grains apart... about 26.7, 27.1, 27.5, 27.9, 28.3 for my barrels. The Cactus was the first time I've went below the 27.1-27.3 nodes that have always shot with good stability. I found the lowest node (below 26.9) by accident at the Cactus when I was...

I've been shooting LT-31 in most of my matches since mid-summer year and twice this year in Phoenix. I tried some duplex loads during the Nats last year in St Louis but decided that stacking the errors of two powder measures wasn't worth the risk. I started the 200's Sunday at the Cactus with...

Rick, I've just sent you a PM with my contact info. Give me a call. We actually have a pretty active group of new shooters coming up in the Billings area. I already work of several of them and would be happy to help you get through this issue, and help you get a good start in Benchrest. Rod Brown

I've attended several of Jack's presentations including the original one posted on YouTube. The context was that he had previously been turning neck slightly larger (and thus, slightly less clearance). BR shooters have a tendency to believe that tight tolerances are always better, without...

The 2800psi number was my own... not Long's. I got it from a couple hydraulic cylinder calculators doing what I thought was the same thing: force against a .243" piston for 21". I could believe your number equally well since fluid dynamics is definitely not my wheelhouse. To me, the key is that...

I have not. I haven't had much success in the upper nodes, but then I rarely try them either. At 4000-7000 feet elevation (the ranges I normally shoot on) the pressures are just enough different that I get no brass life up there and the no notable accuracy gain to justify working it. After...

Gads, I just read that crap I wrote. I'm watching too much TV this winter! Argh. Thank God the shooting season will be underway soon. Rod

Keith -- I was busy writin' when you posted, so here is what I got. First, I don't mean to sound 'anti-science', in fact I'm quite the opposite -- a purist data analyst and programmer by profession. And I have verified the 2800# resistance of the air number and .0005 bore diameter change to the...

The discovery of peak pressure sensitivity to the bullet start pressure got me to thinking along the same line. I believe there would be a disjointed curve that is fairly flat before touch, but has a sharp rise just where the bullet is touching the lands, then a fairly steep approach to the hard...
