Get a Valdada scope and you'll really have some "Swagger"!!!

Nobody has mentioned bullets. They are an extremely important factor in solving the accuracy equation.
perhaps investing in a set of dies to make your own bullet of choice would be a wise investment.

Jackie I would just mess that part up. Ive been lucky enough to find bullets I like that work. I’ve been lucky I guess.

Here's my .2 cents, which mean nothing. I'm in my 3rd year of competitive shooting here locally so I'm no expert. What I feel is that everyone's rifle shoot good. It's the guy that had his hands wrapped around the wind on that particular day that's gonna take the money. I own a range, Coyote Creek Gun Range, and have had it open for 2 years. I've had guys shooting factory rifles finish above full custom 284's. Very seldom do I have the same winner 2 months in a row. the best thing is go practice, learn to read the wind.

If you were getting a new gun and a new wife which one would you want to be the prettiest?

A new gun would be WAY cheaper....

I dont' know if best exists, but Alex Wheeler built me a Bat that's just stupid good. I haven't even tried custom bullets yet, but the Bergers I put through it just plain sing.

I think the best way to put this is that the bullet is your ceiling. A good shooter and load developer cannot make a good rifle shoot bad bullets. Good bullets won't make a bad gun shoot well, but if your bullets aren't good, nothing else matters.

KW Precision does great work…

Even Tony Boyer couldn't win a match with a gun that will only agg a .300".

Joe

I will assure he could! in a Match with terrible conditions, against 90% of the shooters that come to matches!

I'll also assure you, 50% of those 90%, won't show up at those kind of matches if the conditions are that tough!! But you can bet Tony would have been there!! It's up to you to figure out why?

But I agree, without good bullets, yer spinnen your own wheels trying to do what is capable, regaurdless the rest of your equipments ability.

 

[Dan Hall]

Thanks guys. Lots of good info to chew on.

How something looks, superficially, has little relevance to how it performs.
If I were to predict rifle performance from past wives and girlfriends, heavy and average looking would win every time.

I didn't read all of the posts because they are wrong and I am right!! Just kidding of course. I am doing the same thing right now.

BAT
KREIGER
BIX N ANDY
MARCH
ST1000 for now.

I think that HIGH QUALITY bench equipment is very important. That is fairly personal...ie...joy stick or conventional, bag material, etc..... This will be my NEXT step.

Just my .02 and it is worth what you paid for it!!

Coyotecreek, you are so right. Generally he who reads wind best wins. I’ve been having fun with my 22 now that everyone is shooting them at stupid ranges and it has taught me more about reading the wind than anything else. The quest continues. I’ve ordered stuff and am buying barrels like they’re going to stop building them.
