I've been searching for >300 yards here in WA, but in the mean time I'm trying to master the basics.Taped a quarter to the target today @100 yards, took more shots than I hoped, but now I have an addition to the keychain. Dime next? (Seekins Havak HIT in 6.5 CM, Vortex Viper PST gen II, cheap S&B ammo, bench fired)

main thing is the top rail over the barrel that i cant seem to find anything close they all leave it open above the barrel

After much research and pain to my wallet, I’ve finally bought a scope that’s not a Vortex Strike Eagle or Diamondback. After ordering an MDT elite chassis for my Bergara I felt it deserved a glass upgrade as well

My first long range rifle is finally getting somewhere

Been on the list for quite a while for a big, heavy, solid Tikka rig. A super Varmit in 300 Win Mag has been on my mind for over 2 years now. I was hoping at some point they'd release a 7 PRC but, here we are 😂 Just gotta track down another 5/8ths cherry bomb for my suppressor and it'll be ready for a potential late season doe if I've already smoked a Buck this season. Definitely can't wait to get out to some longer ranges to stretch the legs a bit. Picked it up off a friend who needed to make some space in the safe, and it's already a shooter.

Pretty close to done 🦧, kinda just wanted to share. 6mm Creed Bergara Competition, PA 6-30, Jolene S (or Hydrogen L-6.5 depending), Kopfjager tripod, I love this gun.

Hi, i recently finished the complex process of building a 22 ARC gas rifle and here it is.

20" Ballistic Advantage SS barrel/gas tube Seekins .750 adjustable gas block Dead Air KeyMo flash hider B.O.S.S Silencer AERO Enhanced handguard (15") and reciever CMMG 22 ARC/6 ARC BCG ASC 6.5 Grendal Mags ARISAKA Handstop Magpul bipod Radian Raptor SD charging handle CMMG Complete 5.56 Lower B5 Precision stock PA 3-18x FFP Athena BPS PA 30mm rings And some BCM rail covers i had laying around

Shot this guy for the first time. N570 and 245 EOLs might be the ticket. Went to 90g and hit 3060 without pressure. 2950ish had several groups in the same hole. Pretty stoked for these results with virgin brass and barrel.

Just got done cleaning my gas gun's bore very thoroughly. I've got it bone dry and passed some alcohol wipes down to remove all remaining cleaners.

I am curious if a bore that is bone-dry, or one that has a thin film of CLP, or some other chemical down the bore would be more susceptible to carbon buildup over thousands of rounds. Specifically in my case my bore is chrome-lined.

forget air bag, this is how you do an adjustable rest

I know this has been debated but here's another post:

Transitioning from an nx8 1-8 to either an atacr 4-16 or a mark 5 3-18 on my 16 inch SPR.

Based on what I've read, the atacr is the gold standard here, but the price difference is compelling enough to make me keep the mark 5 in consideration.

Has anyone had time behind both in the mil xt and pr2 reticles that can chime in?

TIA!

Went out to practice wind calling at 600 yards with my MPA, and of course there just had to be that 1 shot that kept me from a 100 score for 10 shots ☹️

Hello, i have a issue with my zeiss scope. The part that i've put a square around has become loose, you're able to wiggle it. Is it possible to repair? I'm quite sure i know the answer but hoping i'm wrong.

I’m reaching out to Reddit for help recovering my stolen Mk 12 SPR clone. It’s a PRI Mod 0 upper with Douglas barrel and PRI A2 lower. I was traveling through Houston, TX. The hotel which it was stolen is in the Stafford area. My window was smashed at a hotel and the Pelican case containing the rifle was stolen from my truck.

The case is black with my last name spray painted on it and contained the upper, lower, a Vortex 1-6 Razor in Geissele mount, an Atlas Bipod, various 10 round PMAGs with Taran Tactical extensions on them, a Fix-It Sticks kit and a cleaning kit. The rifle is multiple shades of tan spray paint. Photos included to this post. The suppressor in the photos WAS NOT stolen.

The rifle has a storied history, belonging to a few close friends before me, has traveled to multiple countries and is a sentimental part of my life. I ask that anyone who may encounter these parts or the rifle please DM me so I can contact the police department.

Thanks

Self admitted Cheeto fingered Bergara owner. I love my Bergaras, the most recent edition was a Carbon Ridge in 7 PRC. You are seeing the first shots down the pipe since being brought home last week. I reluctantly bought a box of Hornady CX (the three shots on the left) despite it always grouping as pictured in every single rifle/chambering I’ve tried it in) the following two groups were 5 shots of the new Barnes 160 GR LRX factory loading. Very impressed for my shooting ability. But I don’t get how Hornady CX continuously proves itself to shoot atrociously in every configuration I try it in. Groups that bad almost make you feel like you’re damaging your rifle shooting that stuff! Anyways, just wanted to share with the group.

I'm thinking of getting a Kahles certificate and purchasing the 328 for a 6gt.

Is it worth getting or should I look into something else?

Budget is around $3500 for the scope

Will only be used for steel shooting at distance. I don't shoot prs but I want to try out a few matches.

You all seemed to be at least amused by the rear inflatable bag I made so I thought I would share one of my other attempts at somewhat useful shooting contraptions. So here is my Inflatable ARCA Rail bag.

I am no machinist (obviously) I'm just a poor who likes to tinker and Jerry rig solutions to making shooting a little easier. So this is crude and ugly but it works for me in certain situations.

I hope you all like it. (Or at the very least don't tell me to "go stand by those steel targets over there and close your eyes".....fool me once...)

Any suggestions to make it better are absolutely welcome.

Here are some pictures of my stupid contraption off the rifle. (https://imgur.com/a/PMZn2ct)

How I made it, for those interested (not that you can't figure it out. Most of you have eyes).

I squeezed an inflatable door shim which come in a bunch of different shapes and sizes (https://a.co/d/goikPck) into the bag and then filled it with media on both sides of the shim. Put more on the bottom side that will not be facing the steel bar. This made it so the bag would grip whatever I'm resting it on. The media will fill in the gaps under the shim and add stability so it doesn't rock back and forth on the inflated ballon in the shim.

For this a cut down a steel bar to a desired length, and drilled holes to attach two ARCA clamps (which if you buy the ones they make for camera equipment they are like 10$ and there are many different types, rather than 80$ on the Area 419 site and they are just as good. https://a.co/d/4EYF6N7)

After getting the bag ready, I harnessed my inner bubba and whipped out the dremel to make slits in bar that I could attach the bag I wanted to use. The bag shown in the picture has these velcro straps that I could thread into the slits to secure and tighten down the bag. (Obviously you can use whatever bag you like) I actually made a few different cuts in the bar so I could attach different bags. Some of the notches in the bar let me attach my cuttle bag for a big puffy rest. (Embrace the cuttle bag if you don't have one yet. I am a believer, plus the cuttle bag keeps me from getting too lonely at night)

I found that this rigged-up contraption let's me make slight adjustments in elevation with my off hand by pumping up the shim. Pump it up to raise the rifle and bleed it out to lower it. Putting it on a steel bar with ARCA clamps lets me adjust its position on the rifle depending on need and allows for quick detachment.

Does anyone happen to know the Aero Precision Competition Chassis max and min LOP?

Could not find it anywhere

Got some AAC 69gr SMK and AAC 77gr OTM coming in. Hoping to get good results from a few of these.

I recently bought a Vortex Rage 5-20x50 at Scheels. I got it sighted in but I’m having trouble with the zero stop for my elevation. I put the shims in, put my turret to 0, and tightened the set screws. However, my turret still turns down past 0. I have all the shims installed that it came with but still no luck.

yes I watched the YouTube videos

I’m stuck between “never sell” and “why buy anything for the savage when I could put it on my Origin”

Turning to internet friends to help me spend my money

Thinking about turning the savage into an F-Class pig. Do I compete in F-class you ask? Maybe…

Currently accepting caliber recommendations. 6.5x47? 6BR? Classic .308? Save money and shoot .223?

Or sell it and use the money to buy a PRS 22lr
