Hi Tod , I have shot thousands of the BIBs since 2003 .. Not the sharpest tool in the chest in terms of BC but seem to hold way less Vertical on average than the guns i shoot against over here in Australia ..The vertical dispersion on my gun for the season ended 2011 was 5.300ins for ten targets...

Hi Phil , Happy to have you here anytime but maybe i think you would prefer our winter .. Only gets down to about 50 deg at night , never below 72deg during the day and no rain .. Right now we are waiting for the 1st Cyclones to hit us(your Hurricanes i think)..Temp 85 to 100 deg with 95 %...

Hi All , A very happy seasons greetings to all on our New Years Eve,especially those i have directly connected with during 2011.. Hope you all have a super '12. Being from such a small area a1000mile from the other nearest range ,it sure helps to have contact with with fellow 1000yd bench...

Hi all , Is there any of the CNC machined bullets being used to win LRBR matches in the US . I have to this day not heard of anybody even testing such a product here in Australia..JR..Jeff Rogers

Hi andy, There is no weight limit in any of the 3 long range events in Australia (500Met/550 yd and 1000yd.. I just recieved a 1.500 OD 30 inch long barrel made by Maddco in OZ and all the US made barrels are available in those sizes.. I shoot a modified 300wm and it does OK at all...

Hi All , Well to say that i'm disappointed in the AUST agent for Hornady is an understatement .. We contacted the Hornady people in the US to tell them that the batch of 1000 x 208 BTHP bullets were substandard and they agreed that differences we were measuring were not normal .. The said they...

Hi All , Because i run a Tension barrel set up it is a major operation to remove the barrel just to crown it .. Is there a reliable tool to trim the crown at say 250 rounds than the present 450-500 i currently employ .. Company in the US and 30 cal part no would be handy ..Thanks in...

HI Husky , The only one i know of is at the Lapua R&D complex in Finland .it's 1000meters and under ground .. The R&D person i spoke t is Janne (a lady) ,she told me they use it for testing and it's climate controlled to simulate different parts of the world..I like shootin 1K outdoors where...

Hi Charles , Yes i'm aware of when Randy makes the 187 lots ,but it's up to 11 mths after that that i have waited to finally get them here .. We maybe have a new shipping set up that will reduce that by a fair margin .. Some rifle cases are on the way now , be interesting to see how long it...

Hi Charles , If you have any success with getting a batch no from him ,i would be forever in your debt.. We have had very little success with the lots sent over here so far , something positive to look forward too would be great .. It would be super to get a factory bullet thats worth while...

Hi All ,Anybody had any good results at 1K bench with the New Hornady 208 BTHPs???...JR.. Jeff Rogers

Hi Tod , Must of had 10 different batches from BIB since 2003 , Never had any with a coating .. I would remove it if it were my bullets .. I batch in AOL lengths,Meplat uniform , check bearing surface, check base to ogive at .300 and .200 , check weight and check the folds on the inside of the...

Hi Max,Phil,Rich,Charles and Dave , Yea sure brings a smile to the dial to shoot 5x 5inch groups in a row ..2 left to go but at the worst time of the year now .. Snuck one through before during our heavy mirage matches before today,so there is still hope .. Those aggs from up Missoula way this...

Hi All , I am having a great year in 1000yd Benchrest this time around , got a Heavy Gun 6 match going at 5.914 ins , this is my 1st time under the 6 inch mark .. Still got a coupla matches to go before years end , so i hope to replace the worst one at 7.300ins shortly .. Especially pleased as...

Hi all, I have recently started to use the carbon remover that Johnson/ Evinrude outboards sell.. Only comes in a US gallon but is worth the costs imo.. Called Engine Tuner part# 777189, it is a dealer workshop pack .some say they don't have it but it is in the parts book.. All Motor related...

Hi charles , lost your contact..Re F class at the bench..JR..Jeff Rogers

Thanks Dave , Exactly what i had years ago in the repointer i made , it distorted the front of the jacket (j4s) enough to make the Vertical dispersion of a group larger than unsorted bullets ..I lose only 1/2 a minute in elevation from selected melpated to selected non meplated with zero...

Thanks Dave , Question . When shooting 187 BIBs would you repoint as well as trim now you have shot these tests .. While i would not knock back an increase in BC some shoots the only thing i really want is the best accuracy ..JR.. Jeff Rogers

Hi Charles, You have it right ,small a is for Australian.. Be great if it were for *accurate* or some such but i have got no where near the level you guys run to , i live in hope.. I shot another pair of 5inch H/G groups yesterday so the 6 match should good this year, i'm tryin real...
