Quick double match report The PRS match Saturday went well. My Midpack Domination continues! The NRL22 match today felt a little meh. I came in 4th, but I missed some easy shots. I'm not going to break down each stage, here's a high-level analysis: Elevation was spot on since setting DSF...

Snipers Hide is a little bit much for me. You know what they say about opinions and a--holes, and The Hide has plenty of both. I prefer to show people the benefits of air guns face to face. It's very special to watch someone with a Vudoo or Rim-X suffer their 3rd jam of the match and quietly...

I hadn't thought of that, I've been cleaning the barrel every 150 shots and/or before every match. Maybe I'll leave it dirty for tomorrow's match and see how it does.

Corbin ACE 40.1 gr at 961 fps, G7 BC is .091

I went out to set my DSF today out to 200 yards and I got some interesting results. I didn't clean the barrel since the last match because I wanted the rifle to be in "match condition". When I zeroed, the first couple of groups were unimpressive and the speed was around 947 fps according to the...

Just a quick note in case I'm over-estimating the fact that DSF is common knowledge. DSF stands for Drop Scale Factor (I think) and it's basically a way to create a custom drag curve instead of relying on stock calculations based on BC, velocity, drag model, etc. In the Kestrel 5700 Elite, you...

I shot another PRS match today and I made two big errors. Error 1 - I never got a chance to set my DSF. Error 2 - I got the gun shooting how I wanted and then I tweaked it at the sight in range before the match. I went to the range a couple of days ago and got things shooting really nice at...

The new Shooters Global Pulse Pro is supposed to be shipping in a couple of weeks. I pre-ordered one but I'm a little concerned that none of the influencers have reviewed it yet, so I don't know if they physically exist at this time.

Very much so. To both.

I had some time this morning so I went to the range to shoot some confirmation groups. I started at full hammer spring and went down a half turn every group until I bottomed out. Here are some things I learned: 1. Don't take your bipod off of your main gun. Luckily I had a couple of bags in my...

Here's what I cam e up with for the QD Fox mags for the RAW HM1000X. Initially it was a single mag holder that I ziptied to the scope. It could also be attached to an m-lok rail. I started running out of real estate on the scope, so I made a double mag pouch with a belt attachment (Tek-Lok). I...

Hah! I just wrote out a novel explaining a bunch of stuff that doesn't need to be explained, and to back up my argument I did a little test that was completely counter to everything I wrote. I took a COF from a couple of weeks ago that I shot with my rimfire rifle. I took a stage that had a...

Good lord, if you are waiting for me to figure something out you are going to be too old to shoot. You'll have to go back to field target.

In case there was any question, zer0dev is a genius. I had a little range sesh to try using G7 in my Kestrel, it worked perfectly. I think the wind values are still high, playing around with the wind and yardages from my match on Saturday I'm getting a bigger wind hold and I was expecting a...

Yes, but just randomly. I'll set it to half and see what it looks like.
