Did you build the ramp to single shot control round feed? IF not, how did you get around the fixed extractor?

I prefer the BixNAndy myself. It seems to be more crisp. I have had to polish a few surfaces inside to make it consistent on some of them though. The FF has an inherent design issue that causes creep. The sear is a ball bearing that meets with a hard edge. The bearing must be on the flat...

Looks like a lot of good shooting. Some day I need to travel out of the US and try something like this. I am not sure, but I think Etienne was shooting a 2500X gun smithed by GAC in Italy?? Is there an equipment list that goes with this at any time? Anyway, congrats to all the shooters and...

These guys don't understand the issues with getting a magazine correctly placed to the action in order to make it feed etc. The best repeater setups always have a bottom metal that locates the magazine and has matched pillars to correctly place the components. When we built centerfire actions...

My sincere condolences to all of the Kelbly family. They always welcomed me and made me feel like I belonged. The most memorable time I saw him was at Midland. He acted like we were old friends and I really enjoyed spending the week with him. He will be missed by all his friends and family.

The JNL will work fine. The only real advantage of the Holeshot would be some data from others etc for good tune areas. Basically, most Harrells and Holeshot tuners have a spot between 175 and 225 with lots of them working near 200. It may save some time in the process. If I already had it...

Watching the news and seeing students in some of these ivy league schools and some of our "favorite" congressmen condoning terrorism and anti-Semitism makes me feel that maybe we need to love ourselves a little more. At least some of us! Makes me sick to think of where some of this is headed.

Here is some real data from Dawn: All numbers are on track to beat previous years. The October numbers are based on figures October 12. match entries matches Targets shot # Clubs 2019 6,113 583 30,138 2020 5,763 774 27,787 2021 9,833 1317 44,015 2022 11,662 1621 50,611 2023...

Prince has an excellent point. At this time, given good ammo and conditions, a whole lot more shooters have a chance to win or place in the top few. The average equipment that competitors have is much better than it used to be. A large part of it in my opinion is consistency in the available...

Where are the results for the unlimited match that matches the thread title?

Finding good ammo is just part of the game, kinda like reloading in centerfire. I agree it's a huge PITA, but it is just one of the discriminators in winning. The equipment, ammo and shooter are all important parts of this sport. If we got issued ammo, the equipment game would also drop, as...

I am curious, if that is the range of fouling that hurts accuracy, it seems that it is risky to try two cards. My shot count would almost always exceed that on two cards. If it's real calm or very switchy, I may get by with that, but in more normal conditions I usually hit about 45 to 50 per...

Just asking but why is the Peightal built Nitro in a Calfee spec rifle thread? Just curious.

I don't really care, but with that criteria would there be any of the old Calfee spec guns still considered a "Calfee Spec Rifle"? I think the owners of them and the Calfee lovers want them to continue on as "Spec Guns". I am not aware of what they have on them still, maybe Sherrill's is one...

I use 350 in-lbs. I arrived at that via some math and lots of testing
