JohnD, there is a game for semi-autos called ABRA, which has an unlimited class and a stock class. The unlimited class 10-22’s have been refined to shoot the occasional 2450 ARA. The stock class expenditure involves a 200$ with Randy at CPC, some good ammo, and new glass to be extremely...

ABRA TX State tournament Fine scores from a fine bunch of shooters on a tricky range. Where the heck was Joe ? Congrats to all. Seymour Fish

new ABRA Sanctioned club in Wisconsin Welcome. Great fun lies just ahead. Seymour

J and L PRX tuner Mark, I shot one last year on a 10-22/Hart bbl, and found average ABRA scores went up from low 180's to low-mid 190's. Put one on a savage mk2 which was very mediocre in accuracy, and it improved 50 yd groups 50 percent. Almost all the ABRA shooters here in Texas are using...

darn savage Bought a second-hand savage palma. Bone-stock. Ridiculous what it will do at 1000. Seymour

ar15 Steve, Try 77 gr matchkings with 2520 ball. Will surprise you out to 700 yds. The 55 gr old milsurp shouldn't shoot in the 1:7, but it does. Kids out here last weekend were hitting rolling balloons out to 500 pretty dern steady. Charlie p.s. did you ever guide tarpon down there?

Hamma-Time Joe, A 2175 on the ARA target, with a 10-22, is OUTSTANDING !!!!! Gonna jump in with you chasing the perfect 2500 with a fine lot of that 10 buck stuff from a good buddy. LOL. Would start now, but its headed for 10 degrees and gusts to 37 mph. Charlie ps: what is the pot up to...

cant call my shots to the OP, lots of good tips already given, however you still seem a bit lost.. Perhaps a new approach will help... Hold on to the rifle at every potential contact point as you would hold on to a lively rambunctious woman. Firmly enough she knows who is in charge, but leaving...

long range shooting books To the OP, Tubb's book from about 1988 is excellent, regardless of your intended discipline. Also, read everything German Salazar has written, he is a treasure-trove of solid info backed by results. Cheers, Seymour

moore farms autobenchrest match Gabe, We are in extreme N. E. Texas, about 2 easy hours east of Dallas down I-30, 40 mi W of Texarkana. It is a fun shoot on private property in the middle of a pasture. We have participants of all skill levels, and all are welcome. It is a kid-friendly...

We had a great time. Some very fine new shooters including juniors. Conditions were interesting with a cool front on top of us, thus varied from 70-90 deg F, and the winds switchy, with alternating overcast and bright sun, high humidity providing thick mirage in random fashion. 4 cards...

Damn, boys! they gonna hamstring obama's tax increases and convince the banks to start loanin $$$ to real people again, so lets all lighten up an git back to pickin on the noobs who made a C in highschool physics (mebbe higher if they cheated) and know it all. hey noobs, a clue. look at droplet...

some of us have the good sense to shut up and listen when someone with proven credentials is willing to spend his time and effort in the interest of furthering our understanding of the sport, and sharing that information with us for free. SHUT THE F UP AND LISTEN, or haul axx over to...

Pacecil, yes, 20 yds indoors at a constant temp and humidity. shooting was Suhl, Sako br sporter-class, 10-22/hart barrel with Fudd tuner. some of these excelletn lots of ammo shot very well in the wind and some were mediocre. I was able to take the best lots on a meteoric rise to mid-pack...

pacecil, without any CONTROL, its all noise. Seymour

Anyone have an opinion as to whether good results indoors/in a tunnel transfer to predictable shooting in the wind? Is it a solid predictor of good wind performance, or a crap-shoot? H. Deneen, D. Keeny, G. Beggs, anybody??? Seymour

Dewight, a clacker is capable of making these discriminations 'in the lab' at 20 yds. Studying the wind fascinates us all. When a shot goes out, given proof of ammo/tune, it might lead to discerning what change was missed rather than unproductive negativity. subject for another thread: does...

Speed of projectile vs. speed of sound at a given atmospheric condition = mach number. What is your best mach # for your best shooter? At what humidity % does that become an over-ride? I'm leaning toward 0.92. Seymour Fish

Fred, been threatening to since I showed up and shot that ugly Suhl with you boys in '04-'05. Up near Texarkana now. Christ they are shooting some scores. reviewed targets: best clackers will do for score is 1950 ARA, 242 USBR, 244 IR 50/50. 'Bout 6-8 X. Will shoot some groups (!) at times. To...
