nice post Bruce. Thank You for sharing.

Cngratulations to all...but could not help but notice from those results that Mitsy Cook had a 0.388 group in Match 3...that's good shootin and real good for a new shooter. Congratulations Mitsy!!

Most appropriate thread from a personal point of view. Have just been reading one of the articles in The Benchrest Shooting Primer, related to how shooters (then - 1993) were returning to the 22 caliber Benchrest for the reasons you pointed out. The first thing I thought of after reading the...

I have been researching this subject for a while, the Sinclair's are indeed a good bet (and I have been able to shoot off one). Also, the Shade Tree is a great deal for a co-ax style, just add a base (the Hart or Sinclair would be good). The Sinclair will run about $370, the Shade Tree is...

geffg, check out this thread in the factory/hybrid forum. It is where one of the members used the 204 Ruger to build a 6x204 which is like the 6x47 Rem.

Taking advantage? Some are, local range shop is asking (and getting) $65 for 1K on any BR primer. Good for them, but I won't be buying from them. So even with a hazmat fee, most mail order seems a better deal. Had to wait 2 months for some Rem 71/2, took 6 months for some CCI 400 ordered at...

Hi Jim, had the same question until I noticed the op was in Sep, then I check the Sep issue and there it was.

the 6mm-223 is also known as a 6x45, the 6mm-204 is very close to the older 6mm-222mag or 6x47 (not lapua). The 6x47 was a popular round before the 6PPC came about. one of the members here shoots a 6mm-204 (quite well btw) at the Denton, TX matches - Stevec. Contact steve (hope he will drop...

Thanks for your reply Jackie... Agree with this statement, since the local Club is the heart (IMHO) of the sport, it has to start here. As to some of the comments about the snob factor - yes there is some (but then I think that is true of all sports and clubs). Sometimes comments are really...

Forgive the intrusion, if you will fellas - outside looking in again. Some initial thoughts - ammo and firearms sales are through the roof, Cerberus is about to have a IPO for the firearms group under their holdings. Interest in firearms and shooting is apparently as high as it has been in...

Would like to know what Butch's commet was as well...since I have a Caldwell Rock (not BR). Butch feel free to PM me, if you don't want to make the comment public. :)

Hey Phil, you could have written this part and been talking about me :) Yes, it would sure be nice for there to be a 'true' factory class - and there may be, but most of what I've seen looks to be much more like the other classes - NOTE:Do not claim to understand it all, so I may be completely...

Hi Phil, I understand where you are coming from - there are probably alot more like us. Not quite ready to dive into full BR, but wanting to find a rifle that will group well as we inch along getting better. The BR guys I have met have been nothing but great in offering to help though. They...

Don't know if this will help or not, I don't shoot benchrest but have been trying to shoot tight groups for a while. I have the Caldwell Rock, and feel it to be a weak link my shooting setup. Went from a Caldwell rear bag to a Protektor, made a big difference. Now trying to decide what to do...

This thread does have a postive (for me anyhow) as I have 2 Savage .223 bolt guns - one Model 11 the other a Model 12. The 11 bolt seems just fine for a factory gun, the 12 gives me a bit of crater on most any load. Without the years of experience of most on this site, and being new to...

Here is one place http://viperactions.com/ scroll down the left hand side to Denton Matches Oh, and Thanks for the warning(s)...I mean encouragement

Thanks for the replys and encouragement. Just like the guys I met in Denton, nothing but good folks. yes al, these guys are SHOOTERS which is what makes it so great! Watched them in Denton with a scope and all I could think was dang these guys can shoot!!

Have been on this forum for only a short time, and have been back to shooting only a short time after a long time (>30 yrs) and wanted to share my impression of the importance of the sport and this site. I have not participated in match, or even a shoot for that matter, but did observe the...

LOL Thanks Don, that gave me a good laugh......Are the February scopes are a little shorter than all of the others.

Just wanted to offer a Big Thank You, to everyone for their hospitality today. Managed to get out this moring for the first half of the match and observe. What a fantastic group of shooters, matched only by their good natured picking and ribbing. Was really impressed with all the information...
