...And I was just thinking about how much I was going to have to spend on an Ohler....
...Now I have to factor in an extra $400/hr per range session for chopper hire.......long-range just keeps...
-I'd been thinking about doing this.
But as I don't crimp or laquer my rounds, I'm a bit worried about the effect of all the bacteria and viruses on my powder. -probably mess with the burn rate as...
Glad we cleared that one up :thumbsup:
Thanks for the idea Baldbob. It's not the wrong combination- not according to the top benchrest/F-class shooters in the states anyway. But then again, they may not be experiencing the low...
Good info. Thanks for your help Sneeze.
Yeah, drop was just over 4 inhes at 600 so that fits. The variability of the chrony is becoming obvious- I'll go forward just using it as a guide to get me...
Thanks, appreciate it.
Good enough for me :thumbsup:
-Now, how many organs will I have to sell to purchase one here in NZ? (trying to stick to a policy of supporting NZ retailers- what goes around comes around).
Roger that. I only have the upper model in the "Shooting Chrony" range, 'Alpha Master' or some such.
Funny you should bring it up, I was just researching Chronys earlier. I really like the idea...
Thanks for the idea Sneeze,

Last weekend I tested at 400yds, 600yds, 800yds and 1000yds. Only shot 5 rounds per distance. But...
Cheers,
Have heard good things in the past- will give it a go.
Thanks dogmatix,
That was just the kind of stuff I was interested in. (bonus that you use the same powder).
-So about a 5% loss for you too then.
-Do you think 2213sc is as temperature-stable...
Thanks R93.
-So do you think the drop in trajectory is more likely due to the change in atmosphere? Rather than a decreased muzzle velocity due to the powder/temperature?
(guess I'll know for...
Really keen to hear from more experienced shooters:
I'm using AR2213sc in a 6.5-284, 50.5gn pushing 140 Bergers at a lesuirely 2900fps.
-Worked this load up last summer (20-23 degree days), it...
