That is the way it was for several weeks here in Utah. Limited number allowed in the store, masks required, guy wiping the carts. Now just require masks.

What does IQ mean?

I thought maybe X-Act? Midas Plus is at the top of my comfort zone $$$ but X-Act is way beyond. Regards, Jim

Which Lapua? Regards, Jim

OK, Jewell experts. On a range trip today, I had a few times when racking the bolt didn't cock. So, what would be the best adjustment, increasing sear engagement or increasing pull weight? Regards, Jim

I don't know where you get the idea that I don't follow instructions. I have been following the exact instructions from Jewell. I did forget to go back 3/4 turn on the sear engagement. That caused a lot of grief. Everything is just the way I want it now. Regards, Jim

What pull gauge do you use? Regards, Jim

OK, I managed to get about 1.6 to 1.9 ounces of pull, it is hard to tell exactly with a pull that light. I think my previous problem was due to not backing the sear screw off a full 3/4 turn before proceeding. Question: Is there any appreciable interaction between sear engagement and pull...

Assuming that it is "woefully maladjusted", what would be a good starting point to correct the problem? I was thinking about setting the pull to 3 ounces, then starting at the beginning of the Jewel procedure. Regards, Jim

I have been using the procedure from the Jewel web site. No issues except I wanted a slightly lighter pull. Never been cleaned, used about one month. Regards, Jim

The trigger is essentially new, part of a new rifle I just received. Regards, Jim

I have a Jewel BR trigger that I am trying to adjust to 1.5 ounces. When I get to the step that adjusts the pull weigh, even a slight decrease in pull weight results in the rifle firing on bolt close. So I have adjusted the sear screw to increase sear engagement. But, several turns of the screw...

I need to correct what I said about my Competition rest top. In used the standard Competition top, no windage adjustment. The base has more than enough windage and elevation adjustment for any target I have shot at 50 yards. Regards, Jim

The Sinclair Competition with an Edgewood bag is an excellent front rest. BUT, it weighs 30 pounds. Too heavy for an old guy, so I sold mine. I used the Sinclair windage top. I have also used a Greenlaw top on a Bald Eagle front rest. The Greenlaw is very nice, the Bald Eagle not so nice. My...

Super info!! Thank you very much. ;) Regards, Jim

Can anyone tell me what the lot numbers mean? Regards, Jim

The advice I have seen is to NOT push the brush out the end, stop while most of the brush is still in the barrel. You would need a stop or obvious mark on the rod. Regards, Jim

Well, the usual opinion is "the heavier the better". But, for me, anything heavier than about 20 pounds including the bag is just too heavy to comfortably use. Regards, Jim

Hi Bob, My first "serious" rimfire was a CZ 455 Varmint. For a "purely recreational" shooter I would suggest a Bald Eagle front rest and Protektor front and rear bags. Email me at: iowaboy@comcast.net if you want to discus further details. Regards, Jim

Hey Bob, Up here in Sandy, I have used a Caldwell Rock, a Bald Eagle, a Sinclair Heavy Varmint, a Sinclair BR Competition and a PQP Lite One Piece. Without knowing what rifle you are using, and how serious you are about BR shooting, it is hard to make a recommendation. The Sinclair Heavy...
