    In Shooter there's a line for "Look Angle": Tap the "deg" on that line and it pulls this up: Then just place the phone on your barrel, scope bell, etc while on target and either hit "hold" which will lock it in, or you can start the timer, place it on there, and it will lock it in after a...

    OR Coast Success

    It's an Eagle Industries drag bag. Never actually "drag" it anywhere but it's good for holding my rifle and all associated gear, then getting the whole system to a shooting point with the shoulder straps. BARELY fits my TRG42 with muzzle brake. I tried an Eberlestock pack before the drag bag...

    OR Coast Success

    I got into elk camp this year a couple days before the season (Oregon / coast elk / 1st season). Within hours I started hearing of a 5 point bull being spotted in a nearby canyon. It didn’t seem like there was anyone within several miles that didn’t know about the bull, and I figured every one...

    338 edge v.s 338 lapua

    Performance is pretty much the same and will likely come down to the individual rifle more than which round you choose. You're probably going to shoot the same bullet with either, and will also load about the same amount of powder. The only real difference, in the end, is the brass. The Lapua...

    .338 Lapua thoughts

    I know you're talking about a full custom, but have you considered a Sako TRG 42? Euro Optic is selling the black stocked "matte metal" finish model for as low as $2250 right now... a freaking unbelievable steal. I paid $2900 for my green stocked phosphate finish model several months ago and am...

    ***** SOLD ***** Like new in the box, 4-16 PST ( as seen here ). This scope is like new in the box. I can't really see any ring marks at all... maybe the slightest hint of a shadow of one on the front, see the pics, it's pristine. Lenses are perfect. Was mounted in Seekins rings for 150...

    338 Edge / H1000 Pressure Woes

    Well the headspace is perfect, rifle is completely good to go. Must have just been toast brass and maybe I'm bumping the shoulder too far... After shooting the test loads with Retumbo and not having near the accuracy as H1000, I may just buy an 8 lb can of H1000, start low, and find the happy...

    338 Edge / H1000 Pressure Woes

    Well the plot thickens... Went out yesterday and did some development with Retumbo. Loaded 3 rounds each at 90.0, 90.5, 91.0, 91.5, 92.0, 92.5, 93.0, 93.5, 94.0, 94.5.

    338 Edge / H1000 Pressure Woes

    I don't know where it "started", but the lots I'm fighting right now are 4826 and 4827. I've pretty much made the decision to ditch H1000 and do development with Retumbo. Seems like H1000 has been horribly inconsistent over the past couple years. I expect some lot to lot variation but wow...

    338 Edge / H1000 Pressure Woes

    Having some major headaches with my 338 Edge and finding a new load with H1000… I wanted to share my results to reinforce the warning that newer H1000 appears to be hotter, and get some feedback on a couple points… When I first had the rifle made it had a little longer throat, around 3.970”...

    *** SPF to acloco *** Leupold Mk4 4.5-14X40 with duplex reticle and target turrets. Glass is perfect. Extremely faint ghost like ring marks if you really look under the right light (barely noticeable - see pics). Windage cap has a very small amount of wear and a couple small marks. VERY good...
