Now that I have my scope situation worked out, I have to get back to the "Tack Driver" game. Nightforce 8-32x56 Benchrest. Bought it back in '07. Used it on my T2K for XTC when NRA HP rules first allowed optics on match rifles. Found it to be heavier than I liked for standing as well as being a large wind sail. Fatigue started messing with my followthrough at the end of a 20 shot string, standing. Switched to a smaller, lighter scope and the NF found it's way onto the AN-1. Figure if I can adjust to the bigger heavier scope in practice with the AN-1, the smaller Leupold would be a breeze for the T2K. Fatigue like the above for standing never was an issue for prone (Long Range use). I shot it in several LR matches, but got sucked into Palma. Between then and the XTC optics rule change, that NF spent a lot of time on a Savage MkII. |

TNC if you ditch the high velocity stuff ( federal high velocity match is just a marketing gimmick no increased quality control to speak of)
For something standard velocity ( preferably from Europe) you will see accuracy and consistency improve, often dramatically I know of not a single even semi serious 22 competitor that uses high velocity ammo of any kind |

The groups go to hell at 200 yards, I figure it's because the transonic region is not kind to bullet flight. I am on the lookout for some good, consistent stuff. Given the ammo shortages and the amount of work it takes to qualify a new load, it's a chore. I have some gemtech subs that shoot really well in this gun and my AR .22 upper. I also have some CCI subs that are hilarious: I can watch them fly to the target, they land about 8" below the supersonic groups, and string vertically due to velocity spread. I'd love to have video of them. |

Not sure if I'd call it a precision .22 yet, as it only has 100 rounds through it. Once the barrel was fouled, it started showing some promise. I flubbed the first 10 dots on a 25yd tackdriver target and after I un-fucked my trigger control, it center punched the next 10.
Ruger 10/22, KSA 16.5" barrel, KRG chassis, US Optics TS-12x, Walmart bipod. Timney Calvin Elite trigger is due to arrive Monday and I'm looking forward to seeing how it does in the tackdriver challenge. Attached File ETA: But I did join the B14R club about a year ago. B14R lefty, hated the dalmation spot stock so it got a rattle can job. Trigger is a Timney 'The Hit' set at roughly 1 lb. Optic is a Vortex Diamondback Tactical 4-16. I tried it with my Razor 4.5-27 but to be honest, I kinda prefer the Diamondback for .22 work. This one also sports a Wallyworld bipod--but she shoots pretty good. Attached File Attached File |

I finally got around to buying a Rigid Alloy chassis for my Savage MkII BTVLSS. I am using a DIP products 25 MOA mount, Weaver Tactical medium height rings and a Swampfox Patriot 6-24 scope. The stock is a Luth-AR MBA-4. Now to get it sighted in. The rifle did well in the Rhineland Arms Leopard stock but was very heavy. I'm sure it will do just as good with the Rigid Alloy chassis.

Would it work as well if the rifle did not have a benchrest stock (with a fore end designed to ride a rest)? I'm asking because I am doing all my aiming by squeezing the rear bag. Also, it seems like accuracy is determined by consistency of recoil (recoil control). |

It's probably more important, easier to achieve and less expensive than an upgrade to the barrel. I have Anschutz triggers in both my rimfire and my centerfire rifles. They are both set at 1 1/4 pounds. When people shoot them they are always shocked and jump when they fire the rifle and react from the surprise when it fires. "Hair trigger" and such phrases are spoken. The thing is, the trigger is 1 1/4 pounds, but the trigger is a good trigger, slicker and smoother than... well, you get the idea. P.S. - In that image, your scope looks almost as big as the rifle. Is that a photo perspective thing, or is it really that big. |

Yea, that scope is really that big. I've got Arken SH4's on both of my Bergara rimfires, the BMR ships with a 30 MOA picatinny rail so I used Arken 34mm medium 1.26 Halo rings. I used a 20 MOA Leupold MK4 rail on the B-14R and with the full size short action receiver of the B-14R .92 low rings were a perfect fit. My B-14R has a Timney HIT trigger in it as well; Bergara was thinking ahead making the BMR Remington 700 trigger compatible.

With all those changes, does it still qualify as a T1X?
