😂😂😂😭😭😭😭

Brother, are you okay? Its been a while since your last post? I pray you are fine! God bless you.

Great video. we need to see some more!

What I think weight sorting does is take a bunch of rounds loaded on several different machines and help you pinpoint different machine loads. The chances are that if they are loaded on the same machine they are exact or close to exactly the same. Also I weigh to 10,000ths of a gram....not grain. Also just like certain "batch" numbers are more accurate in your rifle, certain weights are more accurate. The main thing I notice is you get less fliers when you sort. It all depends on just how much points gained by this are needed towards your match score.

I see some KZfaqrs touting Lapua Center X, RWS R 50 and Eley Team. Other of interest-Norma Match or Aguila Long Range and Lapua Biathlon.

Congratulations on the scientific approach for comparisons! How about repeat it with the rifle in a sled to eliminate the human factor?

Love to know your sources for ammo.

Some times the timing on your rifle is off

What brand and model bipod are you using? I can’t seem to find one.

Painful.😣😩

The same crap happens to me. I shoot 5 to 10 round groups to warm/foul the barrel on small shoot n see target with all rounds touching. Move to the ARA targets and shots are all over the place. Maddening!

Do you find the mark 2 Tr 22 to be more accurate and reliable than the savage precision 22 ? Debating on which to get and the rotary magazine seems to be an issue on the B 22.

Its great to catch back up with you on KZfaq. I've always enjoyed your content and have learned a lot from you. As a ARA shooter I know it can be frustrating at times chasing that little dot.

Hi I also put my rounds through a resizing die. You would be amazed even on top brands how the diameter of the lead projectile varies. Resizing gives the same gas seal down the barrel. It does work try it .

Btw, at first when I started it up with the new controller and it started smoking, I closed the lid and it was smoking like hell even out of the lid cracks. What happened was I closed it to soon within approximately 3-4 minutes. Leave the lid open for about 10 minutes, maybe a little less and all will be fine.

Hi guys, I just replaced my Pro 22 controller because I made the mistake of buying one of the generic ones on Amazon and that was a mistake. Now I have a Traeger but this new control did not have a P setting button and the temperature went up to 201 and backed down to 185 on smoke setting. All I had to do was raise the cover on the chimney (counterclockwise) to open until I fine tuned it into 165 on smoke. I hope this helps you.

Hey man? You doing ok? Haven't seen you n awhile ... checking in on ya 😉👉

Chronograph and pay close attention to standard deviation. My MTR w/ cryotreated barrel w/11.5” crown shoots Lapua long range 3.9 standard deviation avg fps 1123. I’m here because Lapua has become hard to get. Midas plus and ten-x are my backup go tos

Great rifle, but a little bit heavier than I expected.

I know you’re a good shooter and today I now know you’re NOT a gunsmith.

Take the magazine well off, you can actually see the spring and makes life a whole lot easier, I must say being a gunsmith for near on 40 years this segment was great and demonstrated why we gunsmiths do a 4 year apprenticeship, you are dead lucky not to have cracked or broken the alluminium trigger housing by the use of that oversized punch, this was a great video of what and how not to do this job and all because people want to save $50 which is what i charge to swap and set new springs, trust me the way you went about doing this job, you got off very lucky.

The solution to this problem is actually quite simple: The trigger is set incorrectly (too light)! If you increase the trigger weight by about half a turn of the adjustment screw, this problem will probably be solved immediately. Just try it out!

very good vid, I used the vid to install my YODAVE spring, with some fiddling I got mine to 9-10 oz. I also have a wheeler trigger gauge, I've found out I have to test my triggers at the very end of the trigger and pull more downward, like firing a shot, Only way I could get reliable pull weight.

You probably realize this by now, but a .5" group, shot at 50 yards, is around 1 moa. Not "1/2 moa", as you state. Good video on how your rifle shoots though. Something hopefully most of your viewers know is that every rifle is different. Someone else's rifle may prefer something totally different. Also an eye opener on how ammo prices have changed for the better in the last 3 years. CCI std. velocity can be found all day long for $4.99 now. Most of the other ammo listed is also cheaper right now: Thankfully. As for your suggestions on which cheap ammo to practice with, I would definitely not use TAC 22, as you suggested. That ammo falls very short, in all of my rifles. That is ALL of them. I've actually had better luck with Federal Automatch. That is some ammo you can buy very cheaply, and shoot till your heart is content. It's easy to find too, at you local Wally world.

Check for weeds, or in my case, bamboo leaves, blocking the air in take under pellet box. That fixed it for me. But this video is what made me look under there, so thank you so much!!!

Don't discount the fliers. You are just lying to yourself and your viewers, if you do. Fliers indicate a major mechanical issue. You need to address that, to minimize the fliers. Don't just discount them. I see Josh also has the same issue. He tries to bandaid stuff by putting on better barrels, but that's a flawed way to look at things, and it's not fixing the issue.

You are pulling the trigger at all different angles and that is contributing to the variations in pull weight.

How much oil?!?! Can't find it anywhere.

Is this a joke?

That was a fun shoot with the wind challenge, non-symmetrical target placement and no sighter targets. Great job Bret.

That's not 17. Good shooting though. Here's the rules: 1 shot ONLY per egg - total of 20 eggs on this target you have to find them all 19 eggs are hidden in the grass that equal 1 point per egg. Max points on this challenge is 19 as the large center egg are for spotters only. All hits must be clean hits. If 1 round strikes two eggs you LOSE 1 POINT. If you have previously cleared an egg and counted that point, then you strike that egg shooting at another egg you do not count the first shot as a point and you still LOSE 1 POINT. If you hit a flower then an egg the point does not count Every egg must be attempted at least once. Looks like a pretty solid 15 to me. Also, you did not shoot at one egg. That could have been more deductions, in the big scheme of things. Not just the one point you lose for not hitting it. Probably the reason Eli says you need to shoot at each egg one time.

I printed mine wrong , I need to reshoot it

Any leads on ammo that you can “pick your lots” to test everything I find sellers won’t give lot numbers in Lapua 😢

Sure do enjoy your videos. Thanks for putting in the time.

Super nice shooting !!😊 Great job judging the wind 😊 Thanks for sharing 👍

Tikka T1X all day long !! Not even close there

Hey Bubba, Watch This! This has to be a 'Do Not Do it This way' video. By showing almost every possible wrong thing to do and everything that might go wrong, you might have created one of the best instructional video's for a CZ 457 DIY trigger upgrade for beginners. Made me glad I had invested in some basic Wheeler and Weaver gunsmithing tool sets. Pin out first effort. Tested the two common Mcmaster sourced springs before settling on the slightly heavier one. Just not ready for sub-pound pulls, yet. Thanks for having the courage to share!

Nicely done video. I'm glad to see someone else shoot this off of a bipod, instead of a $800.00 front machine rest!!! This was shot a little late though. Now we are doing the easter egg challenge. Good luck with that one!! I suggest you print out the new target in color. I shot the old target in black and white, and it was horrible!!!! The eggs are harder to see, and they are smaller on the old target. Just a warning..

Nice shooting: Is your range in San Diego? It almost looks like the Fish and Game range I used to shoot at. JD

Great job on the target! Its definitely not as easy as it looks. Thanks for sharing your results with us. 😊

That third shot center punched that leaf. You got real close on another one.

GR8 VIDEO THNX

Alright fellas the easter egg hunt is out there.

I got 62

49 minutes of bore...

Thanks for your help

Everyone that has a EV should have one of these built on the back of the car .

Sweet incredible shootn! wanted to ask you have a Vid on your technique on how you treat your precision rifle from session to session on barrel prep and what not.

Before watching your video, I also noticed that same pattern of 2 high, 2 low and one in the center with my CZ 457 MTR, 16" barrel, with CCI 1070s shooting unsupported. I figured it was user error ;)

Did you even shoot them to.compare
