I clean after every 50 or 80 round match

Thats a good point .... so 5 shots should do it ?

I'll be working up a load for my AR. Beginning with the starting load and working up in .3 grain intervals. My question has to do with "warming up" the barrel with some commercial loads prior to documenting my handload results. Whats a good guideline for the number of shots I should fire...

Has anyone ever used a Lyman 90-MJT receiver sight on a 223 / 5.56 AR-15 ? I know its widely used for rimfire and just wondered if it would stand up to the highpower recoil. http://www.brownells.com/userdocs/products/p_539090000_1.jpg

Appreciate the input everyone

Thanks MrBorland.. I'll check on those

I’ve been shooting HP service rifle matches for a few years now. Currently I shoot a pre-ban Colt HBAR 5.56 A2 with a 1-7” twist and a nice crisp two stage Geissele trigger. I’ve found that the larger 75gr and 77gr bullets provide me the most consistency in my loads, particularly out to 600yds...

I see your point rskent, I don't wear the stiff shooting coat, I wear my old USMC shooting jacket.

Sitting down between shots helps me re-focus. After I break the shot: I sit with my rifle on my lap facing down range, look through my spotting scope, mark my shot, reload, peek at my timer, take a deep breath, stand

Quick question: Are there any rules that prohibit the shooter from sitting down between each offhand slow-fire shot ? Thanks

Is your club calendar up dated with match bulletins available for download ?

"Never shoot against anyone other than yourself and the last score you shot. " Howard's statement is probably the most sound advice I've seen given in a long time. Bravo !!

PDC PM your email address to me and I'll start a list .... if this idea gains enough steam, I'll connect with everyone to see what we can do together.

I’ve posted this on as many Rimfire / Smallbore forums as I could find, so forgive me if you see this everywhere. Just wondering if there’s any smallbore / rimfire shooters out there in N. Illinois or S. Wisconsin looking to get together for some “unofficial” matches. Nothing fancy. I got...

ISRA Alert: County County Phone Poll For Gun Control Ordinance Is Still Active Larry Suffredin and his cohorts on the Cook County Board are up to their old tricks again. In order to justify passage of gun control ordinances designed to close all gun shops and ban and confiscate most...

Pupchow Wokes great for turkey with the Remington load and the XFUL choke it came with, and my 14yr old son dropped 2 pheasants with it this morning using a FULL choke and Fiocci 2 3/4" #6s. But I don't think I'll try it for goose. I broke down and ordered the 28" barrel from Mossberg for...

Thanks Dave, I figured there'd be some issues with the swing / blast / & recoil. I just didn't want it to be a futile effort. I seem to do ok with the swing on the trap range, so we'll see how it goes. Thanks again.

Thanks jordan1948 Appreciate the input on the chokes. I'll check that out. For "recoil's" sake, I realize the 20" will be a bear ! I'm also wondering if anyone has any experience with a shorter barrel, and what kinds of results they had.
