My sincere condolences to all of the Kelbly family. They always welcomed me and made me feel like I belonged. The most memorable time I saw him was at Midland. He acted like we were old friends and I really enjoyed spending the week with him. He will be missed by all his friends and family.

The JNL will work fine. The only real advantage of the Holeshot would be some data from others etc for good tune areas. Basically, most Harrells and Holeshot tuners have a spot between 175 and 225 with lots of them working near 200. It may save some time in the process. If I already had it...

Watching the news and seeing students in some of these ivy league schools and some of our "favorite" congressmen condoning terrorism and anti-Semitism makes me feel that maybe we need to love ourselves a little more. At least some of us! Makes me sick to think of where some of this is headed.

Here is some real data from Dawn: All numbers are on track to beat previous years. The October numbers are based on figures October 12. match entries matches Targets shot # Clubs 2019 6,113 583 30,138 2020 5,763 774 27,787 2021 9,833 1317 44,015 2022 11,662 1621 50,611 2023...

Prince has an excellent point. At this time, given good ammo and conditions, a whole lot more shooters have a chance to win or place in the top few. The average equipment that competitors have is much better than it used to be. A large part of it in my opinion is consistency in the available...

Where are the results for the unlimited match that matches the thread title?

Finding good ammo is just part of the game, kinda like reloading in centerfire. I agree it's a huge PITA, but it is just one of the discriminators in winning. The equipment, ammo and shooter are all important parts of this sport. If we got issued ammo, the equipment game would also drop, as...

I am curious, if that is the range of fouling that hurts accuracy, it seems that it is risky to try two cards. My shot count would almost always exceed that on two cards. If it's real calm or very switchy, I may get by with that, but in more normal conditions I usually hit about 45 to 50 per...

Just asking but why is the Peightal built Nitro in a Calfee spec rifle thread? Just curious.

I don't really care, but with that criteria would there be any of the old Calfee spec guns still considered a "Calfee Spec Rifle"? I think the owners of them and the Calfee lovers want them to continue on as "Spec Guns". I am not aware of what they have on them still, maybe Sherrill's is one...

I use 350 in-lbs. I arrived at that via some math and lots of testing

Kevin; Congrats on your new life coming up. Hopefully it will be all you hope for. If you can do good work in the RFBR sport, there will be more business than you want. There aren't probably a handful of good qualified guys that can build a winning national level gun at this point. Your...

Tony, the ONLY reason I even responded is because of your statement above. Is that statement not just an example of what you are complaining about? I felt compelled to defend RA and all of it's members. End of story for me. BTW, attacks from WWA are neither artful or more subtle.

Tony, I am kind of at a loss here as to what you want from me. I have never talked bad about you or anything that you do. I honestly don't feel I have really ever talked bad about anyone. If posters on RA post opinions, then they do. Just because I don't remove every one doesn't also mean I...

Depending on the tuner, the bottom of the bore inside hits the end of the barrel. I am mostly familiar with Harrels and my Holeshot versions. They are approx 1.175 deep on the bore. You are really better off not cutting the barrel unless you have to. IF you have to bore the tuner anyways...

First of all, I am only shooting 50 yard ARA type of benchrest currently. ALL of my efforts go to that goal. I think most of my issues and data apply at longer range, but absolute accuracy is maybe less important due to outside environmental conditions in longer range. I do most of my testing...

Mike, I in no way intended to discredit anything you posted. I was just answering the op with what information I know. I'm not sure what the playground insinuation is, but I have been here since pretty much day 1. I have pages of data and information from analysis and tests I have ran through...

Here is my take on this, it's only my opinion, but as an engineer, I think at it from that standpoint. 1. There is so little recoil, that almost no force is needed to keep the tuner from moving on the barrel. Therefore, almost any attachment method will work. 2. Threading the muzzle...

I have banned (actually Hozzie has) about 3 people in our time. They were all so over the top, it was necessary I guess. I am the kind of guy what will let people act the way they do. One good thing about free speech is that you can say most anything you want. The caveat is that you have to...

If you are taking about my site (RA), my membership requirements are that you are interested in rimfire. I don't like pulling threads because it is important for the masses to see everything about a poster, good and bad. The statement "Kiss the ring and swear your hatred for Calfee to be a...
