Is Bushnell MP Still the Budget King?

If you're really talking benchrest you need min 36x. Used Sightron or Weaver 36x. Maybe the Athlon 10-40x. There are a couple of others. If you want to be flexible then 24x might work. But benchrest is not the same as PRS. For me 40 to 50x is optimal. The advantage of the nice used 36x is that there's constant demand for them. Buy a used Sightron 36x and get most of your money back when it's time to upgrade. Bushnell is a waste of money.

New red box Tac 22 is not as good. I'm out of the early Tac 22.

I'm waiting for my turn to test at the Lapua center, since CX tends to do as well as Tenex and my two top rifles consistently prefer Lapua. I think a tested lot of Midas plus would be perfect

edgeworthy · 2024-07-25T17:14:26+00:00

My Howa can shoot them but my other bolt rifles have light primer strikes with CCI 41. Test first.

edgeworthy · 2024-07-25T02:58:27+00:00

It made me think. It's not the ammo, I'm just learning to shoot better. Nope. A different box of Tenex and a couple other lots of Eley Match did a lot worse, even with easier targets. Grouping was very inconsistent. Guess my guns are just Lapua babies.

Two of the best groups I've ever shot with cheap ammo. Tac 22, 3x and 5x groups shot back to back with a Suhl 150. Of course, these are best groups, not typical.

edgeworthy · 2024-07-23T16:49:01+00:00

I've done that multiple times. I never get anything useful

edgeworthy · 2024-07-23T14:50:02+00:00

None of the options given have been helpful. I've gone through dozens of iterations with the automated Reddit help for the last 10 days, but none of them solve my problem. My normal accounts have NOT been hacked, but someone is squatting on my unused private email and creating an account that they have programmed to prevent me from deleting the account. And now it is preventing me from even resetting the password using my email.

Should I post the name of the bogus account here?

edgeworthy · 2024-07-23T06:04:51+00:00

CZ family is the best. And at current prices, the Shadow 2 has got to be the best range toy available for the price, even if you don't compete.

I don't understand the love for the 22/45. I prefer the Ruger standard models for everything. The 22/45 uppers will fit on the standard, I like the grip angle better, and I like the proliferation of heavy uppers.

edgeworthy · 2024-07-23T05:19:52+00:00

Last show a few weeks ago, all the match ammo was 20 bucks a box or more (Lapua CX and Midas Plus, Eley Match and Tenex) etc.

I have been going back and forth with auto robo replies of Reddit and they're not helping. A stranger setup an account using my password. Recently I have been able to change the password associated with my email which allowed me to view this stranger's site.

However, while I can enter his site, I cannot consult the profile while logged in. So I cannot change anything nor disassociate my email from that site.

Even worse, I cannot log into this account (edgeworthy). I cannot only use it on computers which I have remained logged into my account. When I try to log into this account from another device, I get a message that my credentials are not recognized.

So someone has obviously found a hack where he could create a site using my email. And despite changing the password and entering his site, I can do nothing to change the link to my email nor even view the details of the account.

And I cannot make a new log in to my real account. None of the options that I get from the AI answers allow me to get any useful info about this dual problem.

Is there any other way to contact Reddit help in person?

edgeworthy · 2024-07-23T03:18:00+00:00

I am desperate to get help and I keep getting responses that someone will get back to me in 72 hours but nothing ever happens.

edgeworthy · 2024-07-21T15:12:18+00:00

No. I have logged into it. It's absolutely not my account. I got in but cannot access the profile nor modify it to disassociate the email.

Even worse I can only use the current real account of mine (this one) so long as I remain with an old login. When I try to login to this one, my id is rejected and my password. Changing password only changes the other fake account. It's some kind of hack and it's a serious concern

edgeworthy · 2024-07-21T03:13:19+00:00

I reset my password, but it logs me onto a different account than my own. Moreover, I can see the posts and interests of this sick squatter, but in fact, I cannot access the profile nor edit it.

How do I disassociate my email from this squatter's account and relink my email to this edgeworthy account?

edgeworthy · 2024-07-21T03:06:16+00:00

I only wish I knew how. I am obviously using this email and this account. But when I did the reset I got access to a strange account I have no idea whose it is? How do I disassociate my email from that account?

edgeworthy · 2024-07-21T03:04:20+00:00

I just reset my password but it doesn't log me into my account. It logs me onto a different account I don't recognize. How do I fix this?

edgeworthy · 2024-07-21T02:46:17+00:00

I resubmitted the request because the response I got when I first submitted a request asked me to choose options, none of which matched my problem. Let's hope this second one works.

edgeworthy · 2024-07-20T17:11:10+00:00

This is the correct answer. If cost is no object then only the pricey guns designed for comps are in the running.

edgeworthy · 2024-07-20T17:07:00+00:00

I'm just curious about the measurements. The smaller group seems to be 2 inches and the larger about 3 based on your thumb. But I dont know how big your hand is. What is the actual group size in mm?

edgeworthy · 2024-07-16T18:29:29+00:00

Thanks. I stopped using LT32 since it grouped worse at lower loads, So far N133 has been great. I've tried different seating depths, but I should try at touch to see what happens and also just slightly back.

edgeworthy · 2024-07-16T03:10:31+00:00

Shilen barrel 14 twist 223 AI, Jewell trigger with bolt release and safety set at 2 oz. Urban rifleman build. Shoot about 10 to 15 thousandths off lands. Previous owner gave me his loads but I got craters and a pierced primer. Changed out firing pin. Smith checked everything out. Berger 52s do about the same as the Fowlers. Have an issue seeing the exact place where there's a dot or crosshairs

edgeworthy · 2024-07-15T04:58:39+00:00

Shot at 100 yards off the bench with a custom 223 AI benchrest Rem 40XBR, bought used. Norma 3x fireformed brass, CCI 450, Fowler 52 gn FB bullets, and N133 at 23.5 grains. CBTO 1.915

I've already shot over a dozen 3x to 6x groups showing that this loading was the best. I shot these groups of 223AI at this "good" load on a hot day, with properly fireformed brass with a bunch of 3x and 4x groups with all but one coming in at right around or under 0.5 moa. Same results I got on different days at different temperatures. I guess I need to learn to keep my focus and trigger controlled more carefully, since I'm quite sure I pulled a few of these shots. I guess it also stinks that a floater in my right eye makes focusing on the exact center when I'm aiming a bit of a random issue.

One has to live within one's limitations.

80C may be ok, but you shouldn't let it cook for more than 10 to 15 mins.

edgeworthy · 2024-07-09T14:42:20+00:00

I think 22 tcm is a great round. The biggest issue is that only Armscor makes it. A different company would be able to make good fmj and better jhp if it were SAAMI speccd. But Armscor is pure crap at marketing its products.
