    Does the Rifle Move?

    Straightshooter1 - I had the same idea to freeze the frames of the video, but came up with different images. Did you use the same video as the OP posted? Just curious. Here are my freeze-frames: Thanks! Alex

    2nd Hobby (Model Railroading) (Not Shooting related)

    The last one. We moved to a smaller house with a much smaller lot because the previous one was just too much to properly care for. Almost 4 acres of land, and 4700 sq-ft house for just the two of us, and being in our mid-late 70's it was challenging. It was not easy to tear the layout down, but...

    2nd Hobby (Model Railroading) (Not Shooting related)

    I have had several layouts, HO and O. The last one, which I dismantled and sold a year and a half ago, was an O-Gauge true 1/48 scale throughout. It was 33 feet x 38 feet, had 900+ feet of track, 58 switch-tracks, 26,500 feet of wire, dozens of buildings, hundreds of little people and trees...

    Krieger Barrels order up date

    I also ordered two barrels last July (a 7mm and a 6mm) with an estimated delivery of April 14. I called them today, and Mike told me that delivery may be late April but more likely May. I asked him what the expected delivery would be for a barrel ordered today, and he said one year. Glad they...

    Temperature changes and powders

    Timely thread. I had been wondering the effect of temperature on H4831 or H4831SC. I had data of muzzle speeds as measured with a Labradar at 80° and 40° temperatures, but I wanted some data a bit colder. Fortunately, this past week we had some cold days, and I used the opportunity to add to my...

    Interesting and Revealing Ammunition Article

    Does this logic apply to Hodgdon and other gun powder manufacturers as well? Will Varget ever be readily available in 8 lb jugs, albeit at a higher price? Alrx

    F-Open Cartridge Selection for new guy?

    I started F-Class, F-T/R when I was 68, and attained High Master Mid-Range in less than two years. I also shot three Long Range matches and realized that it would be very challenging to learn the wind to earn the High Master classification ‘in my lifetime’. Therefore, I switched to F-Open using...

    Alec Baldwin shot and killed someone on set

    I have taken countless courses on gun handling to become a Range Safety Officer, for Concealed Carry licensing, for handgun proficiency, and so on. I remember four fundamentals rules which, as well as I can remember, were taught at these courses. Sometimes the order of rules one and two may have...

    Hearing Protection

    I have used the Etymotic GSP-15 for several years, and I am very pleased with them. I don't hear well, have a hearing aid for my right ear, but me left ear is beyond help. However, when I use the Etymotic aids, I can hear better than when wearing my $1000+ hearing aid. I have been tempted to...
