"Mueller's"? Is this the same company as the Chinese scope MFG? If so, that's interesting. I hadn't heard they were making barrels.

Exactly how I started.

You'er welcome brother. Best of luck with the venture! It's challenging, but that's what makes it fun!

Hey bud, second page in wind flags category there are 3 listings, Ray Hill's is the second one. Location city is Plainville. Ad lists "wicks style dual vane". If you have issues, PM me. Here's his phone number 508-695-3373. Ray is up there in age, and he is in Massachusetts, hour difference...

Hey Tim, been using 2 of them since my second year. I ALWAYS have one first in line and try to set it so it catches the up-down wind coming off the canopy. The second is placed somewhere in the rest of the spread according to features that could disturb things up or down, usually a berm or...

I use the wicks dual vane that are made by Ray Hill and his son. They have an ad here in the classifieds on the second page under wind flags. They are offered with or without propellers. I use the ones without. I have had a set since before I started shooting sanctioned. They are very sensitive...

The LVT's, in general, have always had a good reputation since they first came out. Keep in mind, as with all mass produced rifles, some are better than others. I saw and posted on your thread on RFC about ammo choices and learned there what your goal is with this rifle. I shot a couple of...

So, it's a 10/22 LVT? Which Kidd trigger was installed....single stage or two stage?

I am pretty sure if you check with ARA, the 540XR would not be legal. There are several rifles not listed on the above list that can not be used. Check with the sanctioning body to be sure. Most of the big score cards have been shot with CZ's, from what I have seen.

Another perfect post above. All my current actions for competition are Stiller actions, even my Sporter, so only one bore guide needed. I have a Killough bore guide and two different rods. Both rods have a different diameter. The Killough bore guide has a removable insert and they offer two...

Something I have done for several years. Excellent advise for those wishing to learn more about proper barrel maintenance. Nice post Tim.

I know a couple of guys using Tipton Carbon fiber rods, most use polished stainless rods. Pro Shot, Ivey (out of business?), Stiller (PQP?), Bore Tech, etc. Tim nailed it, no steel core brushes. Beanchrest brush has 2 specs in my mind. Brass wound center core that is looped on the end, back...

Hey doggie, Please refer to post #11 by Landy. Short stroking with my normal jag and a patch that is wet with C4 will easily remove the carbon in the leade area. Be sure to push 2 wet patches before you do that to remove spent primer material, which is very abrasive. I used to brush my bore in...

Both Kettlefoot and Chicken Foot results for this weekend are posted on the ARA website already.

I see the confusion here. When you post on a benchrest sub-forum and mention precision, a benchrest shooter automatically thinks 'benchrest'. In benchrest, while having an accurate system is very important, precise shot placement is just as important. Benchrest shooters very much consider the...

I ran two tops on my Sinclair, then switched to a Greenlaw adjustable. I no longer shoot the Sinclair in competition and run 2 tops with one piece bags, like Keith has mentioned, on the rest I use now. Scott

Agree with the above. I do short stroke the leade area every time I clean now with C4 after I run 2 wet patches to make sure the glass like primer debris are free from the bore.

The above indicates your Sinclair Comp BR has the windage feature. If so, I can assure you it has enough windage to cover a typical RFBR target at 50yds. I have one I bought before I started shooting sanctioned and still have it. When I started shooting IR50/50 I purchased an extra standard top...

Tim and Pete, You'er both correct, and I will confess that Tim turned me on to C4 on another board. Since he shared that information I have found out a bunch of guys were using it that I shoot RFBR with. I use the C4 on my .223 coyote rifle, my rimfires, and my S&W 627-5 PC revolver. Has cut my...
