I used to clean my brass. Have not cleaned my brass in a couple years. If I start leaving finger prints on stuff other than cases,I toss them in the garbage and get out some new brass. I converted my cases tumbler to rock tumbler for the daughters.

This is kind of dated now, but my understanding is for 100-300 yard ,6ppc tends to shoot better. For 300-600 yard , 6BR shoots better. I very well could be so so wrong though.

Wow, That was a fast response. Thank you. Is there a schedule of future matches, unfortunately I did not see your response until tonight (night before). I would absolutely love to just see as a spectator during a first time visit. Once again, thank you for the reply so fast.

Yes, I know it’s backwards in photo. The aluminum plate is exactly what I had in mind. I just need to get the front bag with the 3” opening and then I will put the plate on. I think that will reduce quite a bit of the rocking motion during the cycling of the bolt. This is actually all my...

It sounds exciting and frustrating all with an adrenaline rush or a bad temper...LOL. There is a major major flaw with my rifle, even though I do my best to shoot group, the stock is not wide and flat enough on fore end and because the action is a factory Sako, the amount of force required to...

5 rounds in 25 seconds? Is that how long you have to shoot? I am teasing the idea of getting into the competitive Benchrest shooting, but I am not so sure now. I am going to give that a try the next time I go to the range. I am a bag squeezer as of right now.In the photo you can see what I have...

I know this is an old thread. Is there any way to come and watch a match? I am interested in getting into competitive Benchrest shooting. I would like to come see with my own eye and observe the shooters and the equipment, gear, and the rifles shooters are using. I am in Cypress, TX and I have...

Mike’s Custom Shop in Montana. That is the store I bought the Canjars from. I found him on guns international and sent him a message. I think he had some posted for sale there and out of curiosity I asked if he had any for Sakos. He replied that he had several Canjars for several different sako...

This topic is pretty old, but I am interested in having a 6mm Beggs built for me. I would build the rifle myself, but I have very limited experience in gunsmithing, let alone building a varmint/benchrest rifle. I found some contact information for him last night and sent him an email. With any...

As for the Canjar triggers, I appologise for not replying sooner. I found a guy in Montana that sells used Sako rifles and he happened to buy the remaining Canjars from the wife of the maker. She had them on hand after the business was liquidated. (I am told the gentleman died and the wife had...

How funny is that:) I spoke to I believe his wife last week. I just now put two and two together after I replied to what he wrote above.

Thank you. I am unable to commit right now, gotta discuss it with wife first, Four grade school daughters and full time dad. If I am lucky I will give you a heads up if I will be able to make it up there. I would love to see that. I am actually about 20 minutes from Tomball gun clubs range...

I worked at Berkeley National Laboratory for a bit as mechanical engineering technician. While not related to bedding rifles, we would have most parts already ultra high vacuum cleaned, but when it came time to use Torseal, or Blue Death, both of which are two part low outgassing adhesives, we...

If you call on the telephone, MSC INDUSTRIAL SUPPLY, they will not only make a recommendation, but because you are just learning to single point, they will actually teach you about it and also send you one of those 1200 page catalogs in the mail. As for carbide, there are some really trick...

After some filtering through all the media/advertising minutia with the handful of custom action makers, I have narrowed it down to two we’ll know , recommended, gunsmiths that are on 6mmbr.com/accurate’s website. Actually spoke with one of them on phone. Taught me a lot just on how to approach...

I switched from button fly to zipper in 1980’s, lol. I still miss the button fly, but dam things 70 dollars now

As of right now, I usually just keep my left hand either under butt of stock as a rest, or against rearbag if I am using one. Sometimes no bag available when hunting, so I adjust heights using my hand. When using rear bag, I usually just rest my hand around it someway, sometimes squeezing it to...

I was watching a video of the more well known established benchrest shooters and was noticing that if not all of the shooters, most of the shooters use their left hand to control the front rest joystick. While I am not ready for such a setup, I was wondering how long does it take to get use to...

I looked at Tomball's Calendar and they have it down as Saturday April 22, 2018, but that date is actually a Sunday on my calendar. I am thinking they mean Saturday April 21, 2018. Would this be correct? oops, never mind it is on Sunday, their calendar is laid out Monday through Sunday, not...

I am assuming the gates are open to the public on this date, as I am not a member...LOL. Now the questions are showering through my mind.
