    take on XTC as well as F class?

    Check with the match director, their name will be on the match bulletin, for the matches that provide any sight any rifle whether they will allow you to shoot F-class in those matches. People have used the same match bulletins for years and maybe allow F-class shooters but have not updated the...

    .338 barrel questions

    Keep in mind that I have much less experience and knowledge than Dave when you weigh my advice. I used two 1-9.4" twist Brux barrels on two separate 338 LM builds and both did very well at 1,000 yards, I did not get to stretch the legs on the 338's before I sold them off. One very lucky day...

    Modified Mosin

    Since you are in central MN I can tell you that I have not seen anyone competing with one in MN, given the stiff competition in F-class currently I do not think I would handicap myself with a Mosin. Where in Central MN are you in? I ask as I can direct you to the closest F-class comp so you...

    Bipod for F-TR?

    I would not have the Anschutz as the only means of attachment as there are some FT/R socks with a very thin forearm and to mill out a 3/8" deep slot would weaken this area too much. We just had a stock in and we had intended on installing a Anschutz rail and decided that it probably would have...

    Lightweight Bedding Epoxy

    You could try using West or Systems 3 epoxy resin mixed with microballoons, I would not use this mix in the recoil lug area as it may not be strong enough. Here is a link to microballons, that same dealer would have epoxy resin also...

    How far can you see bullet holes?

    It is not just the telescope and how good the optics are or how much magnification there is he mirage or as optical scientists call it turbulence is a limiting factor on how small an object you can see at a given distance. Think about this, when the mirage is running heavy you may have a hard...

    Soros disarming USA

    Joe, You say that Hillary will be signing the treaty on the 27th, a few questions and then a wager: - what year and month? - are you assuming the treaty she is signing will be binding in the USA or is it a UN procedural? Keep in mind that it takes a vote of 2/3 of the senate to forward the...

    ballistic software

    JBM is outstanding and the fact that you have a 20 MOA base on your rifle has no bearing on the solution all the base does is change the physical location of your zero on the turret. If you have an Android phone you can get Shooter and it will give you the same solutions as JBM. Hitting a...

    What are they thinking when these are the hot sellers?

    I have built a couple of 338 LM's for testing an optical sighting system and they are fun to shoot at 1,000 or longer for a while. I shoot at 1,000 some but had never hit a spotting disk spindle before at that range until I built the first 338 LM. The gun was shooting very well and the wind...

    New Gun

    If you are not building an F/TR rig I would not go with the 308 and if I was restricted to 600 yards I think the 6mm BR might be the best choice given its great accuracy, if there is a chance you might have a possibility of shooting beyond 600 occasionally take a look at the Dasher wade

    If you have a flexible spending account option as part of your benefits package at work you can have a doctor write a prescription for hearing protection and use pre-tax dollars to purchase a medically necessary device to protect your hearing. I use ear plugs that are molded to my ear by a...
