Thanks Ray: I'll call you tomorrow. bob

Would someone please PM me contact info for Ray Hill in MA. Thanks in advance. bob

Where is your sense of adventure? The Karlyn has catered to Fairchance shooters for years, is close to the range and where else can you find a bullet hole in one room for less than $50 a night? I have stayed there often, but my wife does not travel with me to Fairchance. bob

Boyd: I'll give you one reason. When mounting a scope we should strive to have the optical center of the scope centered over the bore. If one mounts a scope and does not do this the odds are reasonably good that the turrets are going to be cranked somewhat off optical center to get the poi...

John: When you spin the windage control knob off you will see a push rod inside the threaded portion of the stub. Pull it out and clean and then lubricate that push rod then put it back together. If there was any resistance before it will likely be gone after a bit of lube. Do the same thing...

Mine is now several years old. First I try to keep the horizontal centered so I don't bump into the stops. 2nd always try to move across the target from left to right so you are working into the spring. Going right to left you are working with the spring. That said I've never had the knob...

I must respectfully disagree with the post directly above. Cooper makes a fine rifle. They are nice to look at and wonderful to hold. Unfortunately the Cooper is NOT built as a competitive bench rest rifle. They are terrific squirrel guns. The 40x is an old stand by and many have been built...

We had a blast in 2013 the day before the Kettlefoot PSL. No reason to think we won't have a good time this year too. It is a great venue. Thanks Cliff! bob

The first few whoopie pins are always valuable. Those of us who have coffee cups full of them could consider turning them back in as gesture of good will. I've done that with mine......but I'm not a big fan of pins to begin with. $$$ talks, and it does not get stored in coffee cups for years. bob

Long enough that they don't drag on the grass and short enough that they don't drag on the grass. At some ranges that means fairly short tails. I carry some spare flags on short poles in case I have to shoot on the left end at Fairchance. These have tails about 18 inches long. My normal sail...

Dennis: Your analysis seems to be flawed. Bill B never ever said the PRx did not work on his rifle. It was my comment regarding bolt knob weight causing the PRx to be off by ten clicks. I don't think Bill knows how to measure to a 16th anyway. If Gordon set it up with the PRx formula I...

The way this is going I'm happy I chose my words carefully. Had I said "I like your knob" instead would have ruined how this thread has wandered. bob

Jerry: We are not making fun of your knob. I like mine. Gives good purchase in order to get the job done. bob

Fairchance shoots a bit of rim fire bench rest. They even host the IR 50 UL nationals among others. bob

Fairchance is just south of Uniontown. Is that considered SW PA? It is a very active bench rest facility. bob

Bill: You bragging that you will win everything, sell the rifle and buy a condo on the beach just went too far. After all my taxes help pay for flood insurance you are gonna buy on that Condo and then collect when the big one comes in off the Atlantic. My design is just to insure you don't...

I was not planning on revealing this secret but since you let the cat out of the bag. With a left port 2500x you hollow out that big knob a bit....the exact amount is a trade secret....which puts the rifle back in balance and then the PRx works as long as you can measure to a 16th. With a...

Bill: You got me there too. I thought it was an anti squirrel device to keep the rascals away while you were at the bench. Super Secret? Guess we won' find out how it works till NSA leaks it. Oh well. bob ps: I also noted you still have the as issued bolt knob. I'm told by reliable...

Bill: You win. None of us can out do that rig. I like the graphics and the right loading port puts it over the top. I don't remember your neck being that long.....perhaps you should re name it the "turkey nekker" for the ultra high scope mounting. I do suggest you move that chair before...

BBQ as bolt lube will be legal...so you get a bit sloppy and some rubs off on the ammo.....no way can that be considered tampering. bob
