    Dubiel Arms Company

    Dubiel made some of the... most elegantly shaped stocks I've ever seen. The old Dubiel that is. There was another Dubiel in the 70's. A picture could clear up a lot. Dick Wright

    Dubiel Arms Company

    Is there any way... you could post a picture? Dubiel made some very high quality custom rifles and an experienced collector should be able to help if there was a picture. Dick Wright

    Opine Please: Weight sys.

    Tim, I think Bob always used a Jerry Simison weight system. I would get two more weights from Jerry, one that is one oz. heavier than the one in the gun and one that is 2 oz. heavier. They are fairly cheap. Put the weight in that brings the gun right up to 10 lb. 8 oz. No harm will be done...

    why not the .222 anymore?

    Years ago I... bought a collection of BR guns from an estate. I sold some but got stuck with a .222 HV on a sleeved Rem. action. No one was remotely interested. Deciding that "I'd show them!" I loaded up some brass and started to shoot the old Sinclair built gun. It shot like crazy at home so...

    Super Shoot and wind flags???

    Tim, This will be a different answer from the others... Kelbly's set-up provides all benches with good flags put there by folks they depend on, successful competitors whose flags they know are good. You can ask for most anyone's flags and get to shoot on same such as Dwight's, the Wind Probes...

    Amazing shooting @ St. Louis

    That's a really elegant rifle and ... bench set-up. It isn't easy to make BR guns lovely to look at. Well done! Maybe now Tom will come out of his shell.;) Dick

    Gunsmith Dwight Scott, Animal Planets' "Hijackers"........

    The first time we heard... about it was when Steve Robbins called and said, "Turn on Animal Planet... quick". We saw part of the program. I checked the TV Guide and it's been on twice since then. You might catch it if they continue to repeat showing it. Dick

    Harrison Group Match

    Steve Robbins is planning... to attend. Therefore I will be selling T-shirts that say, "I beat the guy who won the Super Shoot". For that matter, Kroop usually shows up for this match... Maybe we should have T-shirts that say, "I beat the BR Shooter of the Year". There won't be no shirts that...

    Precision Shooting subscribers - IMPORTANT

    There will never be... another Frank Murphy. He answered dumb questions with more patience than any saint I ever met. He had the gift of being able to explain complicated technical things with simplicity and clarity. He was planning on attending his first Super Shoot the spring he died. At...

    New to rimfire.. What is this target

    That 's an NRA 50 yd. rimfire target, maybe it's a 50 meter international target. They use it for position rifle. Duncan's use it for their indoor 50 yd. matches. If you had a match at Bay County, how come I didn't know about it? If I had been told I would have come and I have at least a...

    What new products are benchrest shooters looking for

    We could use... the wind flag stands that Ray Wild used to make. He made the very best stands and the very worst wind flags ever. We also need another supplier for bullet jackets. Every now and then somebody decides they are getting into the jacket business. Alas, so far that hasn't resulted...

    What is the order of importance of cartridge parameters?

    These are trees and... if you ever want to shoot well you gotta see the forest. Each item you list has some importance in the scheme of things regarding a quest to greater shooting ability. Each can be attended to in one fashion or another. For example you can uniform primer pockets and flash...

    Harrison-Michigan Championship Match

    Lunch... would be a good idea. I have a notion that a lot of us might be a tad too tired to go to MacFarland's after the match. I'm for whatever you come up with providing it isn't Sloppy Joes made by club members. Dick
