Gene corvin, most adults should be able to think thru complex situations without having their shorts in knots.
Is there an optimum barrel temp range for bullet lube?

Marty, Complex situations don't bother me at all, if I can't figure it out on my own I get help from someone that knows more than me.
What gets my shorts in a knot is all this crap you spew out without any proof that you know what you're doing. I think most experienced shooters can see thru all your bull$hit but it really bothers me to know someone just starting out might think that what you're saying is true. You think "timing" and your tuning method is all there is to it.
Start shooting matches with other competitors and prove me wrong or STFU.

I agree, velocity change was significant. Tuner ain't gonna hold up a bullet that hits an inch low because it's way too slowwww.

Tango, it absolutely can, if there is too much weight on the tuner it will launch a slower round over an inch low. here's something else to try sk+ or wolf and then compare to sk pistol match you should find the pistol match shoots much better. that's why I think the initial drag is right when the round is fired and not 3/4 of the way down the barrel. it is a nanosecond that messes up a tuner. too much weight along with a slow fps round can cause a 2" droper.

i wonder if one of the infrared thermometers like sears has on sale for 19.95
would work if you took a shot of the chamber just after ejecting a round.
probably would, i used to use them outside on batteries to see if they were warmed up from overcharging. take a temp on the cartridge before firing, after, and chamber and muzzle might give you an idea of something that works or timing of shots to keep temperature stable. oh cripes air density, relative humidty, air temp.wind velocity, cartridge temp. chamber temp. muzzle temp. i'm going to end up with a dashboard on the bench need a steering wheel and a gas pedal to make it go. how long can your trigger blade be? hmmmmmmm
maybe doug can write me a program that will wake me up and tell me when all
systems are go. i'd better ease up on the coffee.

Gene, maybe you think the new guys should be the cannon fodder as you were, you know dish out the money and be the mushroom and after 2 or 3 years you have paid your due. well being a mushroom and cannon fodder is not my cup of tea. thank you very much.

You can call me cannon fodder or whatever doesn't bother me at all but I can assure you the first targets I shot in a sanctioned match looked much better than any target that you've posted on this forum. When I started shooting I knew absolutely nothing about what it took to be competitive but what little I know now I have learned from trial and error and shooting shoulder to shoulder with people who gets out in the real world and shoots in competition.
If you think tuning and timing is all there is to accuracy I will take the tuner off my old Suhl and shoot against any of your super tuned guns.
You're nothing more than a keyboard shooter that likes to stir sh$t.

Hey Martin, Ken's shot in about 500 matches, you...uh....2. "If you're at a poker game and you look around the table and do not see a sucker, you better get up because you're it".

Tim, why don't you give the forum your knowledge on this subject. you won't because you can't. been watching this forum for 2 years and you have never not once offered anything constructive. you do nothing but criticize and never put your neck on the line. give your opinions on cold temp shooting lets here it.

Martin here is some common sense for you to think about . When it's colder barrel diameters get tighter .What if there is more wax lube on one round than the next causing it to have a different velocity. There are many different reasons why we can get dropped . But shooters have been working on these problems for years. And yes your rifle must be in tune but for you to tell everyone here that it is simply that they do not know how to tune there rifle is insulting even more so from someone who has no proven record. If you pulled the trigger as much as you posted it would be different. We have two ears and one mouth, wonder why?
First, all you need do is a simple search to see that's wrong.....as usual. Second that's hear not here. C. among the other volumes of useful help others with volumes more experience than yourself have tried to offer, you might consider also that there's a reason they put that there lube on them fancy match bullets and that there lube is likely to perform best within reasonable operating temperatures.... as in above 50deg. or so. Third, the guy you were devoting such energy lecturing to has likely shot in more matches than you are likely to see in this lifetime.....now shut up and apologize to the nice man
