Alex, r u putting tuners on ur 6bra's? Shoot with tuner on my .284 but longer barrel.
You just need to shoot faster
I put one on. This one is the Ezell with the tungsten powder removed so its just a hunk of aluminum at this point. Toms done testing with and without it on. I think it actually shot smaler without it, but he is re-visiting it. He has some good ideas one what to change about tuners to make them work better for 1kyd guns. All tuner development has been done at 100 yds until now. I am going to make what Tom is after for his next barrel and see how it goes. If they work I told Tom he should put them on the market. But for now, I still recommend going tuner-less until I see some solid improvements, at least for 1k rifles. I think for an f-class rifle I would use one. Surprised I dont see more. If I drive to a national event with 400 loaded rounds I sure would want to be able to tweak things for the local conditions.
Using ezell on.284, again tho longer the barrel the bigger the need, we do tune at 100yds and then take out to1000 for super fine tuning. Thanks for info!
I dont know that is the case. When I did my original tuner testing I was running 30" barrels. and I dont think you need all the weight either. The RAS tuners work as good as any and the tuner weight is considerably less. Most guys dont have a 1/2 pound to spare, nor do you want it on that end of the gun if you do.
I am running 32" and have definitely considered going back to 30 without tuner on next.
I have never saw much advantage of a 32 over a 30 inch. One thing I did notice that over the years in 1000 yard BR. Heavy gun, that guy's started out using 32 to 36 inch barrels so they could rechamber. I can't remember any of the longer barrels ever winning an aggregate. Seemed most also shot way better after being rechambered and shorter. Matt
yes it does, we have tuned strictly at 1000 but it takes to many attempts because of wind, etc.. 100yd is a great place to start and has gotten us very very close when moving back to 1000.
Fr years I have tested tuners Not only RAS but many others . Yes All tuner work . But most don't give give you adjustments that you can repeat in the field . With them your in the same place as loading before hand .
