Well,barrel harmonics do have something to do with the shooters ability. You can't even tune the rifle without taking barrel harmonics into consideration.

The 2 main causes of errant shots are No. 1....shooter error and No.2....downrange condition changes the shooter was not aware of or didn't compensate for. No amount of tuning or tuner will make up for either one. The rifle only does what the shooter tells it to do.

A lot depends on the loads you shoot and how well and often the barrel is cleaned and kept cool.

My opinion is it's more of a case of hummer shooters than hummer barrels because the shooter ultimately has the last say. You pull that trigger at the wrong time,that barrel ain't gonna makeup for shooter error......Tony Boyer or not. That rifle only does what you tell it to do.

Some bullets, like the 168gn SMK .doesn't stablize 'til about 180yds,so it's hard to say. These new loong,high B.C. bullets may take more. Glenn Newick,in his book The Ultimate in Rifle Accuracy,emphasized the importance of gettting the bullet stabilized as quickly as possible. Flat based...

Even Socrates said that one of the main problems with democracy is justice(or lack of justice). Remember...the Boston Bomber is STILL breathing! Crime is big business(money)...,everybody is making money....more cops and equipment,jailer,bondsmen,clerks,judges,lawyers,mental health...

Thank you for your input...I appreciate it.

Looks like LT-32 Lot#10 is going to be slower per volume. With the same powder dispenser setting,Lot#10 is lighter in weight by volume and slower in chronograph speeds by about 100fps. ES/SD seems to be very consistant though with low numbers It's gonna take more podwer to reach the same speed...

Yes...Lot No.'s 1,2,and 3 were some of the best. I now have Lot No. 10 and it is definitely different and will require extensive work up.

E. Cortina 1kyd group.... It's a 20 shot group...just so happened the last 5 went close together. You can see the other 15 bullet holes in the same target making a 20 shot group.

Load info request Rem 40XBR 1966 in 308.... Back in 2008... a man named John Lewis shot a world record 5 shot group of .386" at 600yds with a Rem 308 based Benchrest HG(35 lbs) using 1-14 twist barrel. Neck turned Lapua brass,155gn Lapua bullets,Reloader 15 powder,and Winchester primers...

Yes.....I used to own a 1976 DGA LV 6PPC(originally .222 R HV when it left Shilen in summer of '76). Was in an old Adamowicz BR stock when I got it. I don't own it anymore. Fine shooting rifle. Shilen action/Shilen barrel.....Shot my 1st "zero" with that rifle. Have since moved on to Stolle...

Roanoke results....... Does anyone know of where I could see the results of the 2018 SE Regional shoot at Roanoke. Thanks in advance.

So,that .050" could mean the difference between a mid-one and a two at 100yards and .100" at 200 yards....right? To me,40fps is huge. Just my thoughts...…...Dan

I think one of the things killing the group game of Benchrest and possibly the biggest thing is group shooting just too technical for most people. Everybody wants to be a sniper. I've talked to the high power,F T/R.and F class shooters and universally they say they don't want to do all the...

Thank you Steve Lee for the PDF update....really appreciate it. Dan

Jeff Graves wins.... Thank you to Steve Lee for the update. Very much appreciated. Dan

Necks too long,too short??......... I'd see if a new bullet would slide easily in and out of the case neck. If so,I'd just even up the case lengths. Most chamber lengths will give you a little extra. If the bullet is snug/tight,then I'd trim the cases back uniformly. Good luck....be safe.

Norma 6PPC brass....... I think you'll find reliable information on loads at "ACCURATEPOWDER.COM". Norma brass is used in their specs for 6PPC loads. Their starting load with LT-32 is about 25.0gns with either a 65gn or 68gn bullet to about 28.0gn max. NOTE:the bullet designations are not...

Ted Manning... Steve Lee,thank you very much for the update on the match at Roanoke. Greatly appreciated.
