    Which rifle

    Have you tried any 4K+ FPS load w/the LabRadar? Just curious. I don't load any combo that fast.

    6mm Creedmoor

    I propose we re-name them the 22-Covid, 6mm Covid, 6.5MM Covid, because they infect so many so fast.........;:;rofl

    Which rifle

    There are a few things to concern yourself with regarding the LabRadar, none of them are reasons "not to buy" IMO/IME. 1. Getting the thing to read/pickup your bullets. The easiest cheap way to ensure proper alignment with your target is a coffee stir-straw taped into the top sighting groove...

    Which rifle

    I've owned a LabRadar since early 2016. I was wondering what PG was using. Dad got a P35 in the early 90's.

    Which rifle

    Is that 175FPS in 2" difference repeatable? I'm on my 3rd Chrony and a passing cloud or clouds burning off to bright sunlight can change velocity of the very same load in the very same rifle. Do your R26 loads follow the same vast disparity between the 24" and 26" rifles?

    Which rifle

    What Chrono are you using? Did you chrono both rifles on the same day? 175FPS via 2" of bbl with no other variable's changed seems like an anomaly.

    Who is the baitcaster master????

    Start casting #5 Shallow Runners into a 15MPH wind. BLECH!!!! With a GOOD bait caster, lots of practice, and reasonable conditions, IMO there is a lot less effort/cast with a BC reel. I run the free-spool WFO and typically just have 1 of 6-8 kinetic brakes engaged (Shimano, no mag brake). My...

    6mm Creedmoor

    The advantage a 6 Creed has is proper twist/chamber/mag box melding, from the get-go in every factory iteration. In short, it's launch was executed properly based upon available and projected projectile R&D. The 243Win is faster, but, with very few exceptions is twisted such that the speed is...

    Which rifle

    You're talking about ~40-43gn of powder, 22" is plenty and much handier as well.

    Does anyone here target carp?

    Should be some Gar and panfish in there too. Marina Bay was full of gar the last time I was in there (about 10yrs ago).

    Does anyone here target carp?

    Shotgunning the jumpers is about the only option unless you change your name to Ad Topperwein or Tom Knapp. Anyone who's been on muskrat patrol during high-water/high-population years knows that rimfire bullets skip better than what a big-league side-armer could get out of even the flattest of...

    Does anyone here target carp?

    I'd love to target them with a rimfire rifle, alas, the skippitty-doo-da gives me pause.

    Who is the baitcaster master????

    Start with a 3/4-1oz lip/lindy sinker. Cast with the wind at your back. Set out some targets to cast to. Start with your brake so it barely lets line out for the weight w/gravity. Try to cast 7-10' past your target, then finesse a little "thumb" into your spool as your weight gets close to...

    Boat towing question

    Is the Subaru an automatic or manual transmission? I MIGHT try it for short distances with a manual, never with a CVT auto. Get any appreciable amount of water in the hull and try to pull it out up a steep and/or slippery ramp and you'll have a gong-show of the highest order.

    What a difference 52 years make

    If you're ever given the opportunity, skip buying or even shooting the AutoMag........... Semi-surprised that the newer Bruce Willis DW movie featured a Glock rather than a Desert Eagle.

    Technology in the outdoors- where is the line?

    Regarding hunting big-game, IMO, the LRF becoming small and affordable is the most significant "outdoor" development since ammunition was put into brass cases. The LRF has exponentially increased lethality of every hunter who uses them. The ubiquitous LRF has spawned a great deal of...

    I got wood! Need custom stock built

    With a manual stock duplicator they can have the basic shape and action inlet 95%-97% done in a few hours. CNC controlled milling equipment is even faster, but, it takes a craftsman/woman for that last 3%-5%. That last 3%-5% can take a week, a month, or more depending upon how ornate you want...
