    Brass Test (.308 Win but....)

    ....can answer questions concerning other brass as well. Just wanted to share a link to a .308 Win brass test I did for the Reloading Podcast. For those match shooters that sort brass by weight, instead of by case capacity, might want to take a look at it. Either way, here's the link...

    Scored....at least I think I did....

    Scored a Winchester Model 94AE for $350 yesterday. Rifle looks brand new, like straight out of box. Apparently it was a safe queen and never really got shot. Well, I looked up the serial number today, and it was made early to mid 1986, based on last number for 1985 and last number of 1986...

    F-Class near Panama City Beach....searching...

    I used to have a whole list of sites but can't seem to find it. My wife is wanting to move to Florida but I don't want to because I have quite a few places to shoot FTR around my location in Arkansas. I'm not moving unless I can find several ranges to shoot F-Class competition at as well as...

    Finally Made Final Upgrade.....

    ....to my F-Class Rifle. Delivered today, I received my Nightforce NXS 8-32x56 w/moar-t reticle. Got the one with 1/8 clicks. This winter has been productive for me for F-Class this year. Between getting a solid rear bag, tweaking my match load, and getting this new scope. Should have a...

    Well, my Hornady Concentricity Gauge finally came in yesterday. First impressions, very solidly made. Feels of good constructions. Base is solid. Decided to practice on some old factory Remington Core-lokt rounds in .243. Setup instructions kind of sucked. Not very good. Watched a You...

    Has Anyone Tried....

    ....the 6mm bullets from Precision Ballistics? I've been researching different bullets for my daughter to reload so she can shoot matches with me, and stumbled across his company. They're not cheap by any mean, about the same price range as Berger, and just wanted to see if anyone had...

    Max Acceptable Runout

    I recently got a Hornady Concentricity gauge for Christmas. I've never checked my runout but haven't done too bad shooting F-Class. I was wondering what the max acceptable runout you would accept? Most places I've read say .003 or less. I generally shoot 600 and 1000yd comps. I also plan...

    Bullet Pointing System

    I was just wondering if anyone has and used the Whidden bullet pointing system? If you have, have you seen a difference in accuracy? Increase in BC? I was looking at getting this and just looking for some first hand experience. Was thinking about using it on my match bullets.

    Looking for some suggestions for a good rear bag that won't cost an arm and a leg. My current cheap Caldwell rear bag that I've been using for F-Class the last year, and that I've been using for a minimum of 5 years finally sprung a leak.
