    Colorado Rifle Club IBS 1000 yd Match Results - April 17, 2011

    I see that, but since when did the IBS start shooting an "agg" format, other than 600?

    Colorado Rifle Club IBS 1000 yd Match Results - April 17, 2011

    What is the format? Doesn't look like any kind of 1000 yard IBS match that I have ever shot in.

    IBS 1000yd nationals

    Usually it is LG, HG, LG on day one and Hg, LG, HG on day two for a three target agg (3 LG and 3 HG). I can't imagin shooting SIX targets a day!!

    opinion time primers in 300 win mag

    My opinion.....YES, you should use primers in a 300 Win. :D I have found primers to be very effective.

    Exploding gun part 4

    Lynn, I understand that. But...... .030 into the lands ends up being .020 after the bullet self seats on the lands. I am actually only .020 off of the lands. This is hardly enough to take loads that are fully safe at 100 F and compleatly destroy brass at 20 F, especialy in a dasher at 31.3...

    Exploding gun part 4

    Last year we found a reduced load (which is actually max in this gun) for the "exploding gun" of 31.3 RL15 / 105 berger vld/ cci 450. Shoots good and all is right with the world. I let a buddy use it to hunt with. Now my load is way jammed, and trying to unload a loaded round WILL result in...

    How far can you see bullet holes?

    When I am doing load development or practicing at 1000 yards I cover a 4 x 4 sheet of plywood with white freezer paper(don't use the "shiny" side of the paper) and as small of an aiming point as I can see. I have no problem seeing the bullet holes through my rifle scope....unless the mirage is...

    Tuners

    Lynn, We have been doing the night thing here for years out to 1200 yards. I use a spotlight and a car battery set about 20 yards from the target and a bit off to the side due to heat mirage from the spot light. We don't use a Jeep at the target for two reasons. One is that a running motor...

    Tuners

    Lynn, It depends. Never said I would......if it had good ES. But.....if that load that was giving me one hole groups at 100 yards had 150 fs ES I wouldn't shoot it 1000 yards either. I would find a load with a very low es, tune it to shoot one hole groups at 100 yards with the tuner, and...

    Tuners

    Al, Simple....don't run 30 fps ES....run 5 fps ES. Five fps ES givs you 1" of vert at 29xx fps with a 210 vld at 1000 yards as per the I6 program. Find the load that gives you the BEST ES, and use the tuner to tune the rifle for that load. You have guys who say that they get single digit es...

    Tuners

    Negative......It sounds like you are comparing bullet path with the effect of the bullet crossing the line of sight on a scoped rifle. If you have 5 bullets going through the same hole at 100 yards they are going to continue on that path. The bullets originated from EXACTLY the same place and...

    Tuners

    I am pretty sure the rules say that there is no contact between the line and the pits once the sighter period has started. Using three discs is "contact" in my view. I could be wrong though.

    Tuners

    I think Tim is right....you need to take the time and head out to the range when the temps are different, find your tune for each temp, and keep a record. I think the thing is to get good enough at it to TRUST your setting. This can be done at shorter range.....tuned is tuned!!! PS....Barbi...

    muzzle brakes

    I have to agree..... In the thread a couple of months ago about the rule change allowing MB's to be used in HG......it was stated more than once that installing a break on a HG will hurt accuracy. I never quite understood that concept. If it is done right it can't hurt. Just my .02.

    Tuners

    I have a Time Precision "Supertuner" I baught about 10 - 12 years ago for a Rem Varment coutour swift......worked great, but lost it's tune when the weather changed.....had to re tune. Put the same tuner on my 1K match dasher with the same contour BBL last year and it shot great everytime I...

    600 yard benchrest at Harris, MN

    Absolutely...but...is there any way you could hold the 600/1000 yard matches on the same weekend.....600 on Saterday and 1000 on Sunday kind of setup? Also....is the firing line going to be new or the pit/impact area going to be new?

    Barrel block

    Not sure about nbsra, but in IBS the only restriction is the 17 lb weight limit.

    How much barrel can I hang on bat model M action

    Hey Gordy, You may not want the long bolt throw, but the big 1.25 bbl tenon is a big plus when hanging big chunks of steel from your action. Look at a custom 1.75 or 2" BAT "M". As far as a bbl block, I would have one, but the used gun I baught didn't have one. I may some day put a block...
