  1. accuracy at different ranges

    Just my thoughts, take them for what they're worth. 1. Try out your loads at the 100 yard line. 3-shot or 5-shot groups. They'll tell a much better story on the accuracy of a given loading. 2. Try and keep the barrel cool or at least close to the same temperature each time you start the...
  2. Magneto Speed Alternate Mounting Options effectiveness.

    Well, since the OP's original question had to do with the various adaptive mounting systems out to allow one to NOT mount the MS directly to the barrel, I thought I would actually attempt to direct the OP to a source. If the OP, or anyone else, does Facebook, there is a MagnetoSpeed user's group...
  3. Ladder test

    I've used the ladder method to find loads for several cartridges. Most recently, for my 264 WM. Tests with H1000 and 7828 gave a 'group' that even posting to a couple of forums, nobody could see any nodes. Tried RL 33 and in a 10-shot ladder (each shot .3 grains difference) I found 3. Top node...
  4. Comparing 3 Chronographs

    I read somewhere (wish I could find the article) that the Oehler and other 'stand alone' Chronographs have between a 1-3% difference in what the MV is. Looking at the tables, the Oehler is definitely under the 1% range. That's making an assumption that the Magnetospeed and the Labradar are...

  11. Yeti

    CT10ring, not certain what part of the country you're in but, you could go to a Friends of NRA event and ask the rep there for a Friends of NRA sticker. I've got one on my truck and one on a gun case.
  12. Weatherby Vanguard

    I have or have had, three. 308, 7mm-08 and a 243. All are the Vanguard II version. (which the one you handled sounds like). All of mine are/were shooters. The 243 has the best groups of the bunch - .4" @ 100 and 1.6" at 500. The others kept rounds inside of the 1 MOA guarantee fairly easily. The...
  13. load testing are there newer more efficient methods now?

    First, I'm a hunter, not a BR shooter. I'm still concerned with accuracy of my rounds. I've been shooting since I was in my early 'single-digit' days and reloading since college (some 30 years ago). I have tried many of the various methods, from shooting groups (3,5 and 10 shot) to OCW to...

  15. ladder test opinion part 2

    Though the target doesn't prove up on it, shots 7,8 & 9 are a pretty decent node. Might try running those three again in .1 increments of powder.

  17. OH MY GOD cullafornia does it again

    Even if voted for by California, it would still need to be approved by (I believe) the Senate and signed by the Pres. I think the last time that was successfully done was when W. (by God) Virginia was brought into the country.
  18. Any shooters/F-class/long range in west Texas?
