Having the best rifle does make it easier, but what really drives a great benchrest shooter? Name the top 2-3 things that you believe are the most important part of benchrest shooting? Of also add if possible why and how you practice this. What makes the best puff of air? How do you adjust...
I love shooting the 50yard benchrest comps. What I hate is the pile of guns I have with all the custom this and thats and still come up short. I have lots of confidence in my 100 yard setup but I feel the 50 is more precise and demands a higher level of accuracy then the 100. I'm hunting the...
Using the Ghost 22 I have taken 1:16 and 1:24 twist barrels and shot many pellets at lots of different speeds. Results show me that the 22gr AEA pellet at 1030fps out of the 1:16 twist barrel works the best over the MRD 25gr pellet out of the 1:24 twist barrel 940fps tail wind, 960fps head wind...
A new move for me has me at distances that travel by car may be to time consuming. So traveling by air will be the main method of getting to the comps. I was hoping all you clever people could share your setups and what has worked and not worked for you so I can build a setup for myself and we...
At RMAC JSB was showing Black tins of pellets. The word is that they are much closer to weight and size. Similar to AEA and JTS. Is there going to be a release of these pellets? When can we expect to start seeing them?
To start with I shoot competitively for the AOA / Daystate team and love every minute of it. That being said the barrels in our guns are a good 10 to 20 points behind the leading competition. Being a life long athlete I hate losing and even worse I hate knowing even my best day is not likely...
I thought I would reach out and start something fun for all of us. Cleaning my work area I started finding bits and piece of all my projects. Being a competitive shooter and an engineer has lead to an addiction it would seem. The pictures show some of my barrel and tuner ideas that I have had...
I made an order back in June and haven't heard anything. I have tried calling and emailing but still get no answer back. Does anyone know what is happening with K&L?
Any words of advice? My pump went from refills in the 20 minute to over an hour. I have air blowing out the oil tank vent. I think I have enough of the parts to do rebuild but was looking to see if anyone had experience on the do's and don'ts.
Doing some searching tonight and not finding any good info. Can anyone lead me to the oring sizes for the Ghost breach orings? I need info on 22, 25 and 30 calibers.
A recent discussion on speed of pellets for best accuracy at 100 yards, was great with a friend but I thought I would open it up and see what everyone else opinions might be. What flies everyday and finds the most stable and comfortable flight? Well airplanes for sure. Most fly around 600mph...
I thought it would be interesting to start a pellets vs slugs discussion. This isn’t meant to determine a winner its meant to figure out why the big push for slugs, why no new pellets are being developed.
For starters I have bought many different slugs and pellets to find the magic one that...
