    N133

    For 8 pounds of 03/683, I will throw in my Grandkids;) The truth is, there really isn’t that much difference in any of the lots of 133. We tend to convince ourselves there is.

    222-35

    The only one of those I ever saw was shot by the late Eric Klemitich back in the early 2000’s. I think Pete piper at Precision Barrel Works in Hempstead Tx did some of his barrels. So you might check with him.

    We sharpen any drill bit with a Morse taper. That could be from 7/16 all the way up to 4 inches. Straight shank drills 1/2 and smaller ar ground by hand. I am pretty good at sharpening smaller bits by hand. The only time we will not sharpen is if the margin get burned away. But sometimes you...

    We drill a lot of holes, mostly on this drill press. So you can see the advantage of having a good sharpener. http://benchrest.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=24479&stc=1&d=1616016027 By the way. Our Oliver Sharpener is not a refurbished machine. It is new. They manufacture them on order...

    We find that twist drills do a better job on the sort of work we do.

    We finally bought something that for decades we have had a need for, and finally got one. An Oliver Drill Sharpener. This thing is really neat. It will sharpen a drill size from 1/4 to 4 inches, it’s amazing to watch the way it generates the perfect point, clearance, and cutting edge angle. It...

    Lake Charles Louisiana NBRSA VFS Results.

    The South West Louisiana Rifle and Pistol Club held it’s first Registered NBRSA VFS match yesterday. As many know, this area of Louisiana was hit by back to back hurricanes last year, and the range was just devastated. However, they did get the roof reinstalled over the shooting line, so Larry...

    I took my first shot Thursday. Even though I have had Covid, I took the vaccine on advice from my family physician. No ill affects.

    The NBRSA Mentor program is set up so novice shooters can meet with an experienced Benchrest shooter at a convenient range in order to learn the basics of Benchrest Shooting.

    Tomball Gun Club Revamping Range.

    Yes. There is no way to avoid it. We have to have the 100 yard backers at least 70 inches above ground in order for bullets not to hit the ground in front of the Burm. The only way to keep the bullets from not contacting the 200 yard target frames would be to make the 200 yard frames 8 feet...

    Tomball Gun Club Revamping Range.

    We were out today, just to check on some things. The club President said,......””try it out”. So Ed Bernabeo, Jim Moore, and I shot most of rhe afternoon. We have a very nice range now. The Burms meet all of the latest height requirements to insure bullet containment...

    That bedding looks outstanding. I have always used JB Weld or Deacon. Next bedding job I do, I will use the ProBed.

    Kelbly Atlas project

    Nice project. With the 12 twist, I assume you are going to be shooting lighter 22 cal bullets as fast as that 22 BR case will push them, which can be pretty impressive. Nice project.

    Heat wave

    Mort, I had one small copper pipe break in our utility room, which is on the very north side of the house. On the first night of the below 20 degree temps, I turned the water off at the meter and tried to drain every pipe. Our new house is very well insulated, including all of the attic pipes...

    6 PPC from 220 Russian Lapua

    There is not really a “standard” 6PPC chamber when it comes to Short Range BENCHREST Shooters. Some do require you to bump the shoulder back a tad to allow the bolt to close freely. It’s no big deal.
