@igolfat8 Thanks...all good ideas. I've done it with sand, but always too hard. Will try some of your other fill ideas! (y)

Thanks, and I found it. It is a GRS Shooting Pillow. I have a partially paralyzed left hand, and I need a softer rear bag that I can squeeze more easily. Hoping the GRS Shooting Pillow will fill the bill.

In several pictures above you can see Claudio's rear bag. Does anyone recognize the brand? I'm looking for a bigger, fatter rear bag that I can move around more easily, and Claudio's looks like it might be a contender. Thanks!

No. I've got all that written down on dope sheets at my friend's house where we shoot. I'll get back to you in a couple of days the next time I go shooting there (y)

I'm shooting the FX/JSB 25.39 at about 960 fps right now. With the reg on 145 BAR and the 23 inch barrel, I was getting just over 4 magazines (44 shots) before I fell off the reg. With the 28 inch barrel and the reg set at 120 BAR shooting the same pellets and velocity, I'm getting a little...

I've got the 28 inch barrel and have installed the tensioning kit. If you clamp down the barrel sleeve with the 6 set screws first, you are trying to compress the carbon fiber tube, which won't tension (I've tried it). There is no graduated tensioning of the carbon fiber tube...the end piece...

@GHairgunner Thanks for the info! I just checked the twist rate the old fashion way by flagging a cleaning rod with masking tape and running a tight patch down the barrel to the point the flag does a partial or full rotation. I came up with 1:34 but I could tell my patch was slipping a...

I wish I had read this thread earlier. I just received my 711mm Ghost barrel in .22 from AoA today. I'll measure the twist rate this weekend and report back. I thought I was getting a 1:30 twist rate to shoot pellets at 50 yards. But I assumed that. I had no idea some (all) of the 711mm...

Will definitely post my results when I'm finished. I'm testing the JSB MRD "Shallow" vs. the JTS 25.4 without prejudice to either brand. I'm testing between 900 and 1000 fps. I just formed a new National 50 Benchrest League club with a couple of friends, so consistent accuracy is the only...

All good info, guys (y) And yes, I've been under a chronograph for the past 4 weeks, and I did notice a 20 fps drop in the maximum velocity I've been testing (997 to 976 fps), as well as all of my velocities falling. I've been testing the MRD for the past month in the 900 to 1000 fps range...

Only slightly warmer over the past 4 weeks. Low 70s to low 80s F. Would that do it?

Hi guys! I've encountered an unusual phenomenon over the past month. About 4 weeks ago I increased my .22 Ghost HP regulator from about 137 BAR (where I have had it over the past 6 months) to 150 BAR. About 2 weeks ago I noticed it had decreased to 145 BAR (and I left it there). And today I...

@BRKairgunsUK This is from the BRK website... "The new ART (Daystate’s Accuracy Research Team) developed 711mm (28 inch) barrel and barrel tensioning system were critical to its success, so BRK added both enhancements to the BRK Ghost World Record with the .22 HP version of the rifle tuned to...

Thanks, Lee!

Thanks, guys! (y) Just ordered my spring kit. Do you know if we are supposed to install the springs with their color insert? In the AoA spring kit video, it doesn't look like he is doing that.
