  1. 6mm ARC bullets for deer?

    What 6mm cartridge and velocities are causing you they bullet failures?
  2. 6mm ARC bullets for deer?

    If you're using an AR upper I'd think three times before exceeding gas gun pressures.
  3. targets for 300 yard distance

    Great question! It really does depend on what you're doing, I find that (assuming equal bench techniques) that a NON-COMPETITION target needs to be designed for the distance that you're shooting, the type of sights that you're using and the importance of the fun equation! I'm attaching a...
  4. Sig Tango MSR 1x10x28 LPVO reticle plotting

    Here is the finished plot of the Sig Sauer 1x10x28 LPVO, I promised to get this done and I'll post it in the scope area also. It makes sense of the scope reticle marking not documented and documents significant differences in the elevation markings.

  6. Loading .38 Special.

    I've had no problems for over 35 years with a light load of Red Dot or American Select.
  7. It was bound to happen

    Some people's children!!! Years ago I partnered up with a software company, writing a color management book specifically for their software. No small task, 1.44 million options distilled down to 12 choices for professional users and 3 for general users. The software company sold the books...
  8. McGowen Rifle bbls

    Herein lies the problem with custom barrels. If you shoot a wide range of bullet weights you have to make a compromise. When I had McGowen build my rifle I sent 3 dummy rounds loaded with the heaviest weight I would use with the action to use when cutting the chamber.
  9. AR barrel bedding

    Not being a builder of rifles, I can only speak from experience from shooting. My Colt A2 in 5.56 shoots 1" average at 100 yards with hand loads. My Aero Precision M4E in 6 ARC shoots an average of 1/2" at 100 yards with 105 Hornady match. I've seen AR 15's in 6 ARC that cost more than twice...
  10. McGowen Rifle bbls

    Many years ago, I had McGowen build me a rifle, a 358 Norm Magnum on a 03 Remington action for hunting, I believe I delt with Harry. I've never seen any other 358 Norma shoot better. I've had some health issues, and the rifle sat as a safe queen for a very long time, I pulled it out checked...
  11. Straight-wall scope question - 350 Legend

    In my opinion practice and range to the target estimation is far more important that any difference in scope type. When utilizing short ranges and ballistically limited cartridgesespecially with medium sized game I find practice to be the deciding factor. I have only 3 straight walled...
  12. I did a little math and graphics, this is what I came up with for the SIG Tango BDC 9 and 10

    I have gotten hold of my son and his 1 x 8 has 3 triangles left and right of the horseshoe. I'll shoot and map the scopes and redraw my drawings. Videos show the same for the 1 x 6 but I have no access to one.
  13. I did a little math and graphics, and I wanted to alert those who may be interested

    I have gotten hold of my son and his 1 x 8 Sig Tango has 3 triangles left and right of the aim point and horseshoe so when we shoot these scopes to map the reticle I'll need to redraw my drawing. I don't have access to a 1 x 6 and videos show 3 triangles like the 1 x 8 but cannot test.
  14. Photographers here -- What are you shooting at?

    This is the only spoiled child I have!
  15. 450 Bushmaster - Ruger American Ranch or Gunsite Scout

    Thanks for the information. Unfortunately, Government gets involved things get stupid!
  16. 450 Bushmaster - Ruger American Ranch or Gunsite Scout

    I only seek enlightenment. Why the 450 Bushmaster?
  17. Photographers here -- What are you shooting at?

    My wife likes mature grasses!
  18. I did a little math and graphics, and I wanted to alert those who may be interested

    Here is the updated stuff including the 1 x 6 BDC, 1 x 8 and 1 x 10 BDC
  19. Straight-wall scope question - 350 Legend

    Hold over marks mean very little unless you calibrate them yourself. If you shoot factory buy several boxes of your favorite ammunition and shoot 3 shots at 3 different measured distances at the same aim point of a target and measure the distance from the aim point to the center of the group...
  20. I did a little math and graphics, this is what I came up with for the SIG Tango BDC 9 and 10

    Here is an update, I have mapped the BDC 6, 8 and 10 reticles with using the center horseshoe for windage and I have superimposed those reticles on a silhouette target
