    Mock FT match with my boys

    I was cleaning up my gunroom and came across the notes from the little mock ft match me and my boys had on a Saturday in late January a couple months ago. Just at my house so no cool destination. And we've only got a handful of the Air Venturi Rat on the Run targets, so that's what we used. We...

    Pesting with .20 Veteran

    Me and my youngest son just spent about 30 minutes at the extended families feedlot. We were hoping for a ground squirrel but settled for some pest birds. Got a couple euro doves and a couple starlings. This starling was the most easily retrieved. Taken from a lasered 71 yards with a .20/13.73...

    Mike Smith, in memory of....

    With heavy heart I share that Mike Smith passed away earlier today, from complications from an ongoing battle with cancer. He was what I refer to as "a field target friend" and that's the context I'm going to keep for this. I'll let his eulogy be at the funeral. Mike was the man behind "Mike's...

    Events No UFT @ PRGC in April

    Due to schedule conflicts there will not be an Ultimate Field Target match at Phoenix Rod and Gun Club this April. After the March match last weekend we discussed moving the weekend for the April match and the shooters couldn't arrive at a consensus. The general impression was that attendance...

    Brocock/BRK BRK Ghost long term

    Added another box of slugs to the empty pile this morning and decided to lay these out for a photo. This is since Sept of 2022. It represents entire tins or boxes shot solely by the Ghost. Shots taken when experimenting with other possible pellets are not here. There are... 4x500 of the FX...

    PARD DS35(LRF) 70mm 850nm

    Introduction (None of my comments/opinions/thoughts are paid for nor "sponsored" in any way. I'm just sharing). I was generously gifted one of these by @Nofilters, as a show of appreciation for me kind being the de facto online promoter of the high power/long range field target matches that he...

    We'll be having a long range/high power field target match on March 30th @ PRGC. Three classes: rimfire, slug, pellet. Shots to 100yards, max of 100fpe. Take advantage of the fact that there are very few places to shoot slugs in a high power field target match, and this is THE ONLY place in...

    (two part match report, general and silhouettes in part 1, field target in part 2) "A picture is worth a thousand words." Since I didn't personally attend this one, and they sent me a big pile of photos....I'm (mostly) going with that for this match report. Arizona is a land of extremes. Tom...

    Hold off ? For wind

    Wanted to shoot when I get home here in 30 minutes..... How much hold off for a 55 yard target with a 19.5fpe pellet? Lol Can you imagine trying to shoot a match in this?!?!?! Ahh, springtime in northern AZ. Sustained in blue, gusts in pink.

    PARD DS35/70 850 nm ir videos?

    How are you PARD owners handling videos? Specifically how to get the vids from the unit to a phone or computer. In the manual I'm seeing wifi option, but it appears that's almost a screen mirroring feature, versus saving video. The simplest manner seems to be recording to the memory card...

    Falcon Scope customer service

    I'm not sure what his official title for Falcon is, but I've maintained conversation with Nick Watts for a couple years now. Always quick to respond. Couple weeks ago I got out the gun that my X50 lives on. Hadn't touched it in a while. I was pretty concerned to find the sidewheel just...

    FPE from slugs versus pellets-an example

    @JungleShooter..... For everybody else, this came up in a recent discussion here on AGN....how much fpe loss do we typically see from slugs? Well, it depends. lol. Gun is a Vet Long in .22 with a 23inch 6 groove polygonal LW with a 1:32 twist rate, choked. Yes, an RTI "LR" barrel that a friend...

    .22 JSB Jumbo Monster Light and Grand

    Photos lifted from elsewhere on the interwebs....but don't think I saw any discussion about them here.... What do we think about these? I'm personally MUCH more excited to try out both of these than I am either the "Deep" or "Shallow" ReReRedesigned .22/25.4.

    Projectiles .22 MRDs for sale

    Full disclosure that these are the infamous 2020-2023 production years. These are from 4 batches of MRDs. I've used tins from each batch but the tins that are for sale are unopened. These are not my culls, nor have they been sorted. I don't have the time nor desire to sort this many...

    RTI "LR" barrel and slugs?

    I know the RTI "LR" barrel is a choked 1:32 twist rate barrel that was marketed exclusively for the .22/25.4 Monster RD pellets, but does anybody have any reports on how they do with slugs? Curious if the slow twist rate is detrimental to slugs.....The choke doesn't concern me as much, as I've...
