Time to start matches again. First event is "20 Straight" format, a non-classifier.
New this year will be a choice of targets at 110 yards. Our regular targets will remain the same. A set of smaller targets will be an option. Smaller targets will be higher risk, but worth 2 points each. For...
Has anyone found a replacement trigger or reliable way to lighten the trigger on one of these rifles? I've looked at Rifle Basix and Timney, neither seem to carry anything. Factory settings are 3-5 lbs, I'd like to get it down to a pound. Thanks in advance!
A friend reloads for his grown son who lives out of state. His son sent some 450 BM cases from a rifle he bought used. All the brass is Hornady, but is a mix of large and small primer pockets. I was under the impression it was all made with srp.
Can anyone shed some light on this for me...
Each winter, RCC offers a precision Air rifle and air pistol league. Every Monday evening in January and February, indoors of course. Score is your 8 best targets during the season, so after you have 8 scores on the books, good scores fired will replace lesser scores.
Lots of fun, social...
School me on the practical difference. I bought 10k a few years ago and largely load rifle cases from 223-6.5 Creedmoor, but have always used small rifle. I need to back off a grain or two?

I'm thinking it was Bushnell, but not sure if that info is current or who to contact. I have a B&L scope from the 90's and have questions about it. Thanks in advance...

The end of the firing pin broke but I have both pieces. It goes to a modern, falling block single shot handgun. Need a new one built, and hardened. Suggestions are appreciated.

Format is "Half & Half" and is a 60 round match. In each of the 20 shot strings, you will change distance every...
Our 4H club has several Savage Mk II rifles. All the mags spew the loaded rounds out thru the receiver as they are inserted into the mag well. Tried stainless steel mags, not much better. We started keeping our thumb atop the mag as it is inserted, helps a little.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in...

With sunset at about 8pm and a forecast of overcast skies, we will start this match a bit...
I have a good supply of .257 and .277 bullets from other guns I've had. The 277 Wolverine and 25-45 Sharps from Mad Dog Weapons have caught my interest. Both are necked up .223, designed to run on AR platform, but should also be easily accepted in small face bolt guns. Anyone here shoot either...
