For a great example of this check out the SPOT Messenger page on Facebook. Login | Facebook I know there is a Catch-22 here. You will probably have to create a user account on Facebook to see the SPOT Messenger page. :)

In Facebook I have developed a group of friends who share many common interests with me. These interests ran the gamut from politics and current events to hobbies such as photography and shooting. Often times one member within the group will find something that is of interest to him...

Yes, I do. Facebook would be a great way of increasing awareness of the LRH site.

My wife and I just got back from a week long trip to Yellowstone. While there my wife captured this sequence of photos. If you are on Facebook, you can see the album here: Login | Facebook

Yes I have seen the same general pattern. I have run a half dozen different ladder tests and seen the same right to left, low to high pattern. Only one test showed a vertical 6 o-clock to 12 o-clock trend. As to what causes the pattern, I don't know. There were no issues with the rifles...

Verify that both your GPS and Google Earth are using the same coordinate system. I believe GE uses the WGS 84 datum.

I loaded forty rounds of 6.5x284. All things were as close to identical as possible with the only exception being 20 rounds used CCI 200 primers and 20 rounds used the CCI BR2 primers. Here are my results: CCI BR2 CCI 200 Low Velocity 2848 2841 High Velocity 2878 2872 Average Vel 2860 2859...

I see Midway advertising "overrun" bullets. What exactly is an "overrun" bullet?

Help me learn something here.... What was it that told you the rifle was "bedded very poorly"? Thanks Gary

I had the Butler Creek Flip Ups on mine but it would not stay closed. It was constantly popping open. I ended up sending them back.

I have now had a chance to put about 80 rounds through my Savage 12 F-Class. So far I am very happy. The results of my latest ladder test shot at 300 meters show a couple of nodes with a group size of approx. one inch (photo grid = one inch squares). It was very easy to get use to the light...

I doubt there was any thing wrong with the bird. A nesting bird will often act that way to draw predators away from their nest. This behavior is common in killdeers.
