    Faifax Winter league 12-20-09

    makes a whole bunch of sense to me .... I would like to shoot but the travel time up and back from Chester in these conditions probably would not have worked for me anyway...... look forward to the 10th ... and finally, is the Fairfax schedule for 2010 posted somewhere ???

    Do We Need a New Perspective on Awards

    I personally don't see a problem with this ..... and in terms of getting more (new) people out to the range then certs for the top finishing rookie in each class ... we keep indicating if we are a rookie but unless we finish in the top three it really doesn't seem to matter in terms of...

    Fire Forming Business

    for me it would stop ... at neck turning .... it seems to me that it is best to fireform the brass in the chamber where it is going to be used.... I have three different barrels in 6 PPC and I fireform for each one on an individual basis .... don't know maybe I am overkilling the situation...

    Contributions to accuracy?

    I am relatively new to this game (started last Nov with very minimal experience with any guns) but this seems to be pretty close to what I have found. I started with a good - not great - used 6ppc benchrest rifle that I knew had the ability to put out a mid teens group occasionally. I could...

    Primers for practice

    depends on your objective Jon, If the objective of the practice is to work on bench issues, or something with the gun NOT involving accuracy then MAYBE this would work out for you .... but for me at least I want to practice for a match with exactly the same components that I plan on shooting...

    reloading equipment questions.....

    from someone relatively new to reloading ... I understand the basis of your question as it is was quite overwhelming to me when I started. After doing a lot of reading (via the web and print) I then went back to research to determine specific brands and found that there is a very strong...

    filling front bag

    also be careful ... that you don't go outside the rules if you are going to shoot in competition ... it seems safer to stick with sand / heavy sand ...... walnut, corncob and plastic don't seem to me to meet the definition of sand or grain .... but someone that understands this more than me may...
