I got my hands on this rifle over the last few days and it looks like a great job done by Walther. If I was in the market for a new rifle this would be a very strong contender. It almost looks like the action is ambidextrious, just the bolt is left or right handed. The action is ambidextrous and the...

For an average ~$10/year I just don't see that its a big deal Indeed. Considering that the competitions that care about cylinder age typically have entry fees that cost about the same as a new cylinder the "age limit is a ploy to sell more cylinders" conspiracy theory doesn't add up. It d...

Can someone please direct me to one or two companies that might have the older 1411 or 1811 prone stocks for sale. As my latest round of buying and trading is winding down, it seems that I have a barreled action left over and need to make a complete rifle of it. A club I'm a member of has some stoc...

Still would be interesting(as in, still probably not enough to draw any conclusions) to see a database of rifle/ammo combinations. Yup. I know that both Eley and Lapua recorded the details of my rifle when testing with them, so I imagine they're keeping some sort of records. It wouldn't be in their...

as I understand it Bleiker offer a "Lapua" bolt Yes, or you can get just the part that differs between the Lapua and Eley bolts and switch over as-needed yourself. That's what I did, since it was substantially cheaper than buying a whole extra bolt. It's likely that Walther rifles test we...

"If it's broke - it's a Bleiker" is an expression I heard last year and seems to have a degree of truth to it. More like "If you're broke, it's a Bleiker". :) (Still worth every penny!) Two problems that seem to be quite common are : The loading platform can stick in the down po...

Finally, if the display could also draw a circumference around the selected group, you could also assign a diameter measurement, giving the maximum group size. Voila, a home grown batch testing display for bench testing ammunition in the comfort of your own range, using your own target. Slightly of...

Assuming that buying from one of the well known makers should get you a pass on a new jacket is very optimistic. The majority of people I know with new clothing fail EC unless they have worn and trained with it for a few weeks or went through a break in period. They normally pass after beating it w...

Connor Rosie's next jacket will definitely be from Phillipa. She was very helpful when Rosie had issues at last years ESSU meeting. I could not recommend her highly enough. Much easier to go directly to her and get a jacket/trousers than buy something else and then have to take it to her to get it ...

What really worries me is getting my daughter a new suit, that will likely cost me almost two months total income, and there seems to be absolutely no way to reliably pick a supplier who can produce one that is guaranteed to pass EC when checked. I know it's not perfect for the "reliably"...

One other thing I forgot was I feel like I am almost forcing my head down on to the cheek piece. If you feel like you're forcing anything then you need to fix it. If you don't have access to a coach, get a friend to take a bunch of photos of you in position and post them here. It's easier for peopl...

I've been using the Kurt Thune ATL sling for about 5 years or so now and I'm very happy with it. It's had a decent amount of use over the years and is still in good condition, so I'm very happy with the quality. I don't use the adjustment very often but a side effect of the design is that the sling ...

Very nice IRLConor! Clean looking setup. Yup, it's flat, relatively short and light (6.25kg). One question, how do you find the Gemini buttplate? It has more adjustments than I need, but I didn't know what I'd need until I bought it and shot with it for a while. :) Have you had to adjust the top se...

Mine :)




It's a Bleiker barrelled action in an Anschutz Precise stock. Gemini buttplate, MEC Free Sight and a Centra Duo Vario on the front.

Hmm, that DHH is interesting, it doesn't appear on my testing output: http://hostr.co/file/5KRIU2CpNnb0/lapua-batch-testing.JPG I tested at the same time Dave did above. Here are some photos of the temporary testing range used: https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/8286_431750846910...
