I agree with Gimp. My Rem 700 6 x 47 is absolute crap! Just look at this pathetic .3 group. I've had enough. Tried everything and not once has it got in the .1. Ive chucked it to the back of the...

I agree with Gimp. My Rem 700 6 x 47 is absolute crap! Just look at this pathetic .3 group. I've had enough. Tried everything and not once has it got in the .1. Ive chucked it to the back of the...
Two good examples of the difficulties facing the NRA. I guarantee you that if you rock up to Trentham with your hunting gun and 24 rounds of ammo (actually you may need more to get onto the target if...
I was using Bergers to cull goats but we are getting through a huge number of them. I have just gone back to Hornady. I'd hate to be shooting Bergers at targets at $1.00+ per pill that would make me...
I know it’s near impossible but imagine for a second if you could operate independently of the NRA. If I was still involved I would push the NRA for support to shoot independently of TR at least one...
In the beginning of FTR I was disappointed that they (F-class members) Allowed the wording of the founding document effectively allow a full blown F-Class rifle chambered in 308. From its concept it...
It’s actually much like this forum environment.:D Whenever I went to the shooters for their opinion to take back to the NRA we would all end up talking in circles? It was hellishly frustrating. I...
Actually I have a very good idea I was the F-Class delegate to the NRA for a few years. I shelled out several hundred dollars to sponsor the Masefield trophy (I think?, can’t remember which Steve...
Thanks for that. The shift to FTR surprises me a little but the fact you guys are equal numbers with TR does not. For the claimed oldest sport in NZ to be slowly drying up is a little sad to hear....
No but I have looked through them. The hairs are very fine. I shyed away for hunting but then the NP-R2 is often too fine as well. Fortunately the NF illumination is excellent and seems to run...
I shoot MOA. I will never change. You see the day I lay several thousand on the counter to my first NF 5.5-22 with NP-r2 reticule that was the beginning of the end for me. At the time I just followed...
Who here shoot it? I have completely lost touch whos at the top of the heap and what are the numbers like?
SHHHH I'm a dumb f#$k with 30 posts still shooting 25y with a .22 mate don't blow my cover.:D
It’s good to be shooting again. I'm back with vengeance too on a mission every weekend.
I would be keen. It would be good to shoot out to 1500 ish and see what you guys are up too.
Shit you need to buy a CNC lath gregg:D Hmm I might have to abandon this thread before I do something stupid:thumbsup:
That's cool stuff if any of this shooting happends in the North island I...
When you guys run you calcs on this stuff I assume you convert to G7? I have never been able to get a G1 any where close after 800y. That said I almost always need to push the number up. The 180...
How long are we talking? Whats the G7 and speed are you hoping for?
I’d be the first to agree with that statement.
I’ll bite.
The difficulty of a 1000y shot is actually everything but the shot itself. By the time you have dug in to make the shot you already...
Tracey keeps me posted on whos doing what but I had not heard of that. I did well the other day it only cost me 5k to get out the door if he had his way I'd be sporting a new cannon with machined 375...
Dan I respect your comment but with respect it is influenced by your current understanding. I have and so have several others I know taken deer and goats etc. @ beyond 1000y. I agree with you that it...
Are you suggesting we sign up to the forum the same day we buy a gun?
Now that's how you answer the question!
Thanks Gillie, Yer LOL it does read like that I guess. That gimp idiot set me off. I have no issue with piss taking I'm not shy myself. The only reason I referenced the slinger thing is it’s the only...
As a new comer to this forum I think some posts here are a sad indictment of forum culture. Maybe be foolishly I thought this might be somewhere to share with like minded people but clearly it’s more...
I shoot a measly little 7mm WSM so far from qualified to comment here. What I can say is the WSM shunting the 180 Hybrid kills goats very convincingly between 1100-1200y. I have never found a shot...
Hey Dan. I had not replied before now as a figured someone who had actually used these projectiles may give you a first hand opinion. I have loaded a 308 with the 155 VLD shooting F-Class but it was...
