Re: Smallbore Prone stocks

Tim, I'm interested in any quality option available. I would lean toward more toward and aluminum option, but would cpnsider a 1913 stock if the price was good. I checked around and haven't seen any stocks available ( Anschutz or aftermarket). I'll list a WTB, and see if anything presents itself. I...

Re: Anyone recognize this rest?

The latest version is called the NEO-X. Sebastian's rests and the Joy Pod-X are incredible pieces of equipment.

Re: Choosing a Sling

Used an Anschutz leather Professional sling for over years and it functioned great. Upgraded to the Thune ATL sling over 3 years ago and like it even more.

Looked at the Centra, but know of too many that the material ripped out and failed. Maybe it’s been resolved, but I’m not sure.

Re: Kurger targets are no longer accepted by the NRA

The Kurger paper is superior for indoor targets, but fails miserably when used outdoors. The paper is too brittle for use in even moderate winds.

Again, not certain for the non-acceptance across the board by the NRA, but the outdoor breakage was an issue.

Re: Target rifle: Feinwerkbau vs Walther vs Pardini vs Tesro

What is the reasoning behind opting for the mechanical trigger against the electronic, from a performance point of view? Electronic triggers are not very common with rifles and as Mark mentioned, always have 2 electronic triggers - one to use while the other is in for repair. Also throw in that you...

Re: Target rifle: Feinwerkbau vs Walther vs Pardini vs Tesro

My opinion only.... While Anschutz rifles are good, the 54.30 was less of an upgrade and more like just a quick stop gap to make the 54 series action a little more ergonomic for loading. Comparison of the loading port location to the others referenced make it even more clear while improved, it's sti...

Re: cheap wind flags

I make my own flags and use a 1/2" x 1/2" wooden dowel w/ an oversize hole in the top for the flag arm to rotate freely.

IMHO, the light surveying tape is too sensitive and becomes almost useless in moderate winds.
