0.2 for the LRR ret should be really good. Grid2 is also very nice but won’t be changing from my p4 fine . Cheers -
Could be trying to pinch our load data to sell on the black market???

Had to give our hand load info to Marc at the old eskdalemuir range ie bullet , brass , powder type and how much powder . So why not everywhere ?? .

Using eley subs my mod gets clagged up with powder residue ( ASE ) which usually collects at the mod output end and can affect accuracy. So it needs a tap every now and then and often a full strip down and ultrasonic clean . Sak mods are strippable too . Keep everything clean . Centrefire rifles don’t seem to make as much mess at all . Rimfire powder is not like centrefire powder . Cheers

Info for above from accurate shooter . Com . A good article to read and some info from Laurie too .

Accuracy International AX Mk3 - recoil management
Richiew replied to Vally2niner's topic in Tactical
Try to keep rifle parallel to the ground and adjust butt pad to keep all recoil in a straight back movement rather than an angle that makes the flip . Had my AI AT for 7 years or so and I’m still finding things out that help . Groups are much better too and a good solid grip keeps everything tight so I can see the impacts . I do notice more barrel twang now though. I have found a butt spike by bt industries useful but they’re not everyone s cup of tea . Adjusting this to get on target and take the shot then finding your point of aim for next shot is way off shows that your natural poi has chan -
Very therapeutic turning big lumps of metal into smaller pieces . Nice gear there mate . Beautiful looking threads . Cheers

.208grn ELD-M in Sabatti?
Richiew replied to Ralpharama's topic in Target Shooting & Informal Long Range Shooting Practice
Blooming nightmare regarding ammo , primers and bullets . Buy in bulk if you can . Is there a shortage because of the looming lead ban ???? who knows . I bought a thousand 77 grain lapua in 223 lately just so I didn’t have to touch my favourite loads of Berger and hornady which I’ll keep for best . Good luck finding stock . Some webs show coming soon but that was from last October. 185/190 should be good for win mag about 3000 fps any make available buy it Cheers -
Magnetospeed V3 Problem
Richiew replied to Gazza0208's topic in Ballistics & Ballistic programs / Solutions
Try reset system?? bottom of page 7 in the manual . And a brand new battery, mine played silly buggers even though battery was ok for other gadgets. Could use 2x cr123s to check if it’s battery problem . 9v batt should be an alkaline one. Main menu then battery menu/ state , needs to be very close to a full 9volt . Good luck -
Not many suppliers with actual stock. Also looks to be a primer shortage too . Thanks for the info though. Going to try some target bullets on foxy and see how they fare . Cheers

N135 around the 25 g mark , 2.26 case overall length . Tikka varmint with 1:7” twist . Very good on foxy no exit at 112 yards . Good accuracy and should be very stable ,1.68 stability factor so well above the 1.5 ideal number and 3144 fps from 20” barrel . Cheers

Defo go s&b then . I prefer the locking turrets with the tactile clicks in clockwise for up . Models with the alloy zoom control feel more sturdy too . MSR2 or the new longrange reticle would be top choices . Or try the horus type if you don’t want to dial every distance. Worth the wait . I’ve got one hi power and two ultra short 5-20 x50’s . Love em . Would have tried the kahles 3-18x50 as a viable option but stuck with the Schmidt.
