Colorado Multi-Gun just held its first match at the Camp Guernsey ARNG base in Wyoming. We ran three carbine and pistol stages as the main match, and one "precision rifle" stage as a side match. One of the stages was a run on the back of a commercial HWMMV shooting reactive targets down the...

A while back I got a great deal on a used AI-AWP. Since I already have a 308, I decided to get a .260 Remington barrel for it. The logic is that for long-range shooting, wind drift is the crux of making first-round hits. While 308 match bullets (150-175gr) generally have a BC of 0.53 or...

I am proud to announce a new organization, Colorado Multigun, and an exciting match for 2006. Many details are still fluid at this time, but the major match parameters are set. Colorado Multigun was formed to promote world-class multigun skills through clinics, training, and competition...

Just picked up an Accuracy International Super-Magnum (AWSM) in 338 Lapua Magnum. Scope is a US Optics SN-3 3.8-22x44mm 35mm tube metric knobs with mil-scale reticle. This is the "big brother" to the 308 Arctic Warfare (AW), with the same proprietary action (but 338-sized), permanently...

Tactical Response Inc's Tactical Rifle, Sept 17-18, Colorado Tactical Response had two days of Tactical Rifle training Sat-Sun in Pueblo CO. This class was designed to be an introduction to fighting with a carbine and pistol as backup. Much like the Tac Pistol class, we started with...

Tactical Response Inc's Force on Force, Sept 19-21, Colorado Tactical Response had two Force-on-Force (FOF) classes back to back Mon-Wed, just after their Tactical Carbine class Sat-Sun. The two FOF classes were "Force on Force Primer" and "Force on Force Scenarios". The "Primer" was one day...

The new 2/3-point sling mounting system on the M93B is pretty slick. I had been using a loop of paracord on the M93/A/A2's; this is way better. In just a few seconds, the sling can be installed or removed as usage requires. [ link to LARGER image ] [ link to LARGER image ] [ link to...

The 2005 TacPro Sniper Tournament took place on Sat-Sun Jun 25-26 at the TacPro training center between Mingus and Stephenville TX. Many people know of TacPro as the best Accuracy International dealer in the country. Four Colorado 3Gun/rifle shooters including myself attended this match...

Here are some pictures I took at the Sniper Challenge match last weekend in SLC. This was at the F.A.R.M. training center SW of SLC. Dave Bohdie (sp) was the match director. Courses of fire were short, the most was 10 rounds. Lots of 100 yard shooting on small targets (1/4" to 1"). Slightly...

A while back I bought an Accuracy International AWP in 308WIN as my primary precision bolt rifle. I couldn't be happer with its performance. Historically, this rifle was designed as the UK's sniper rifle in the early 80's. It's designed to be accurate, durable, reliable, with most parts...

I recently got this Rock River carbine together. It's based on a RRA 16" stainless 1:8" twist upper, with a mid-length gas system and handguards I had a local gunsmith turn down the barrel profile (from about 0.9" under the handguards to around 0.75") to reduce weight. He also bead-blasted...

One of the most common actions I take on a thread is to subscribe to it. On older versions of vB, I can do this with one click, then Control-W to close the frame/tab as soon as the "redirect" page starts to load. With the newer version in use here, it seems to take two mouse clicks and one...

I have a "new" AR-15 with a 16" 1-in-8" barrel, and I'm interested in what velocities other people have achieved with the "heavy" bullets in .223, specifically, the Hornady 75gr BTHP, or any other > 70gr bullet that can be seated to feed through a magazine. What muzzle velocities are attainable...

I currently reload rifle (.223, .308, 8x57JS) and pistol (.44, .45, 9x19) calibers on a single-stage Rock Chucker, and I also have a Dillon Square-Deal B (auto-indexing progressive) set up for 9x19 that I use for bulk loads. My question is this: When using a progressive press to load a rifle...

Here are the results of my first attempt to take some halfway decent photographs of pistols. The subject is my CZ-75B-SA in 9x19. It has the following modifications: a set of CZ rubber grips, a set of "PT" Night Sights, installed by CZ-USA, a "Champion" steel trigger, and trigger job...
