So many great thoughts & comments :) 1. On Carbon Wrapped / Bartlein Barrels - Sounds like I will pass on that route given the general negativity and my own observations that these don't shoot much below .75 MOA. No offense to Bartlein, but that's who made the current barrel that won't shoot...

Would love to go to Ojai - beautiful place, but unfortunately I'm about a 6 hour drive away in NorCal and I don't have a rifle for competition. I used to have a Terry Cross smithed 6.5-08AI built on Surgeon action a that was competitive but it was crazy heavy. Have fun! Not going to disagree...

1000 yards is about as far as I can find here in California. I'm not interested in winning competitions, but I'm completely OCD about accuracy. Small groups make me happy. Hearing the ping of a small piece of steel at long distance makes me happy. I have 2 Proof barrels on other rifles. One...

Hi folks, A few years ago I went on a quest to build one rifle that does "everything". A reasonable weight rifle that is crazy accurate for long range target shooting, powerful enough for handing all North American game, ad light enough to practically carry for hours. I ended up with a GA...

PatchWorm I bought a PatchWorm just to try it. It's a neat solution. A few gripes though.... 1. The natural coil in the nylon causes it to deflect to one side as it is pushed through the barrel. As it exits the muzzle, it will get hung up in a muzzle brake. I have had no luck...

5.11 HRT Watch Try a 5.11 HRT watch. I've used the Titanium one for a few years. Works great with a little practice. Since the battery lasts for years and the watch is waterproof, it overcomes the primary concerns I have with PDA based solutions. You may want to opt for the field-ops...

So what are the options.... Hmmm...... just bought a Volquartsen Evolution rifle in .223. Sub MOA semi-auto that takes AR mags. Beautiful gun and well built. Unfortunately, It's design does not provide for any straight path to get a cleaning rod in. The documentation specifically states...

Vortex Mike, I recently purchased a Vortex Viper in 6.5-20x for a varmint rifle. I bought this based on feedback I have heard about Vortex optics. Got it last week and have been playing with it. The scope was reasonably priced and the glass compares with more expensive scopes. Unlike...

Ryan, I just bought a new Savage and tried a different approach with the scope. "Normal" reticles have markings in MILs and knobs in MOA. Makes no sense to me. I looked for a MIL know and MIL reticle system. Some very high end tactical scopes currently offer this (US Optics, Schmidt &...
