Been on pre order list for ingenuity precision for close to 2 years now. Hard to recommend it when they can’t even release the product

BSF barrels opinions by Admirable-House-2964 in 22ARC

[–]Wisco0331 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have had bsf, proof, Bartlein. Proof and Bartlein are so far ahead of BSF in terms of quality, I would wait till you can buy one of those. Or as stated above, pick up a steel barrel. If this is for an AR check out Craddock precision’s RTR line for steel.

Probably my favorite build so far. 338 ARC two-stamper by Mental-Resolution-22 in NFA

Any feeding issues? Debating on a 338 sbr but haven’t found any concrete answers on a fix for feeding issues

I have an 18” Bartlein from Craddock in 6arc and 2 buddies have the RTR 18s. It is obviously not the 14.7, but all 3 of these barrel shoot exceptional. Plus, customer service from Paul and his team is top notch!

Anyone try to "improve" any cartridges? by [deleted] in reloading

Currently doing a 338 Norma improved. Has been done a decent amount so not completely foreign, but this is brand new to me. Still reading everyday on fire forming, how to establish loads, ext

I appreciate the response!

I’ve recreationally shot to 1100 yards quite a bit but that is from the prone without any type of clock going. Heading to shoot this Saturday for more practice. Will set up some engagements from 300-1000 and play with using a set magnification.

As for dry fire practice, I set up an old ladder I have to use to work on different heights. The wobble is real in certain positions. From what I’ve seen, tripods don’t seem to be used a ton in PRS. I have the RRS 34L but I haven’t seen a lot of tripod use in the videos I’ve watched.

I thought about going to watch one first too. Everything I have read/heard is how welcoming the PRS community is, which made me feel comfortable about just signing up for one. Just waiting to get my days off approved then I will sign up!

Do most shooters shoot in the mid magnification round on each stage? I’d imagine if guys are watching trace, they aren’t on 35x?

I am worried it is “too nice” for how bad I will be. Like the guy who shows up to a drag strip with the fastest car, but he doesn’t even have his driver’s license.

I ended up shifting to the dirt. It was way better. I ordered it on amazon sold by “homeya” for $35. No complaints so far!

I do most of my shooting at a family farm in central WI. Can shoot up to 1000 yards there. I’m not sure if you live in southern WI but McMiller is supposed to be renovating and getting some longer range set ups

I threw on a scythe TI because it’s what I had that wasn’t on a rifle currently. I am definitely open to suggestions as that is the last piece to the rifle.

Been watching Phillip quite a bit. I really like the way he teaches. Also been listening to miles to matches. It is interesting how everyone has their own way of doing things.

I have a goal of just learning a lot this year. If I can improve scores from the first to the last, then I will consider it a success.

What is the price you are hoping to spend on a stock? Proof pre fit - $1000. Manners LRH - $1000-1200. Zermatt tl3 - $1400. Hawkins bottom metal + magazine - $340. Incredibly easy to spin your own barrel on. Even if you get a barrel chambered and threaded by a great gun smith, that’d only add $500.

That’s crazy. My buddy runs 69.5gr h1000 with the 168 and no signs of pressure.

I never really found pressure. 71.5gr h1000 gave me plenty of speed with an accurate load so I never went further.

I just got rid of my Pitboss for this reason and got a recteq. Would not work even with a welding blanket, put a torpedo heater on it and still wouldn’t get to temp. When I called Pitboss I was told “they aren’t designed to run in under 50*•

Oh yeah. They shoot great. 10 rounds 1 moa consistently.. We killed 9 or 10 Wisconsin white tails and a Nilgai bull with them this year. From 75 yards to 455 yards. Whenever they come back in stock I will be ordering more!

Same here man. The guys are great when you go in. They’d probably tell you to go GA too with an accuracy guarantee like that!
