    Thank you Jackie Schmidt, a mystery solved

    All the credit for his accomplishment goes first foremost any primarily to Jackie. He picked the components and threaded those babies through the infinitely variable conditions to accomplish his feat. I'm glad to see some realizing that without the optics holding POI it couldn't have happened...

    Farley Black Widow action

    I have a new black widow sitting in my gun case. It is one of the few early ones that were still cast. It's a right bolt, left port, right eject. I have worked the rear detent on the bolt and it is very smooth. I just don't have time to mess with it.

    The action.....it's cured!!!!!!!!!!

    There is one other explanation that would fall perfectly in line with your experience Jackie. Those dual port actions can be rather limp (as in not stiff). I had a 3 lug that would bind when I put the screw in the rear of the action to hold the trigger guard in place. This was on a gun that...

    Gene beggs makes big mistake !!!

    Gene, I have to say that the longer I do this the more I'm starting to believe that .6 gr of VV133 will take you from tune to completely out of tune. The one thing that seems to still remain a mystery to me is how to ride that tune over a 2 day match. At this time the best I can do is try...

    THUNDER ROAD: A journey across the wastelands to the Cactus.

    Scott Smallwood arrived this morning and promply announced 2010 to be the year of the Smallwood. I'm not sure if he is predicting his dominance this year, or the size of the awards he expects to win.

    Cactus Warmup?

    I went down and shot Saturday. I know that Gary Ocock won both 100yd aggs. In the first agg Gary O. and Roy Damron dominated with something like .15xx Aggs. I can't remember anything more on results other than Gary spanked us again in the afternoon.

    BAT Mods needed.

    The fact that some are now berrating Bat for this is absolutely ridiculous. Dwight Scott does this modification and has his reasons for doing it. THAT DOES NOT MEAN THAT THERE IS ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE STOCK BAT. This sport has individuals that will go to extreme measures to make things...

    Thoughts on New NORMA 6PPC Brass

    There is one other thing going on that nobody else seems to be saying. The current Lapua 220 Russian brass is not what it used to be. I'm not saying that it is no good. My experience in the past few years has not been as good as in the past. This may help change that. Many may also remember...

    December 5 shot Unlimited at Ben Avery

    I can't wait to come down and get my a** whooped.

    Neck turn lube

    another vote for RCBS case lube. Same experience as Mr Mock. You have to really do a good job of cleaning out the necks when your done.

    Scope mounting

    Todd, Yes there is a good reason for more than 2 rings. As someone mentioned above the scope is going to "whip around a bit" during recoil. The method I use is simple. 2 rings in front and 1 in the back, all lapped while mounted on the gun. I believe this will help with the scope failure...

    8208 powder

    I'm hoping to just take it to Phoenix and sell it at a match. I was really just wondering what it goes for. I'll probably just price it the same as new 133 and see what happens.

    8208 powder

    Jackie, lot # 18176. Charles H. told me this was one of the 2 lots that were the best.

    8208 powder

    i haven't purchased powder since 2005. What is a fair pice for unopened 8 lb jugs of an excellent lot of pulldown 8208. I have three unopened 8lb jugs.

    Who has won??

    When I have weighed 8208 it will stay within .1 gr after a few charges are thrown. It measures way better in my redding than the 133 does.

    Who has won??

    That is exactly how I use premeasured charges. You can change your load at any time just like with your powder measure. The only difference is that when I change loads I know exactly what I'm changing to. I occasionally will weigh some of the vials I previously sorted and they have always...

    Who has won??

    Jackie, Now that you have the scale, please try this for me. I swear that my guns can be tuned within a .3gr swing in powder charge. That is why I like the pre measured vials. I just sit down with my scale and throw powder into the pan. I put the pan on the scale and then put the charge in...

    Just Got My New Scale

    Jackie, I think you made a great choice. A truley good scale will give you a lot of confidence after seeing it perform. One little trick I came across is to get one of those drop pans with a little funnel on it. After using it I learned that when the pan is removed my scale shows the pans...
