Recommended Rifles for Adult 3PAR
Hello All, I currently practice precision 10m 3 position air rifle using an Anschutz 2002ca. I love the rifle, but find the stock rather limiting as I describe here: https://www.targettalk.org/viewtopic.php?p=336367#p336367 With no good upgrade path for the 2002, I'm thinking about a new(er) precisi...

Re: ANSCHUTZ 2002ca stock options for 3 position
Quick bump to see if anybody has delt with this problem and has an opinion. Seems like a new rifle is the most practical solution, but that comes with a steep price tag. Too bad considering the 2002ca is plenty accurate - just a PIA to get all the settings just right for position changes. There is a...

ANSCHUTZ 2002ca stock options for 3 position
Hello all - I was hoping for some info/help on upgrading my Anschutz 2002CA. Quick summary: I have a 2002CA with a laminate stock. Cheek rest and butt plate are adjustable, but use allen bolts with shims for adjustment. Rifle currently has an Anschutz 4759 butt plate. I use and enjoy this AR a lot a...

Re: Returning to 3 Position: 20+ years later
as for lenses and or shooting glasses... I think I should get more practice time before making a decision. A set of dedicated shooting glasses is going to run around $400+. I do like the idea of the monoframe lens since it is cheaper and pretty much ensures proper alignment. When I go to the eye dr ...

Re: Returning to 3 Position: 20+ years later
I've been on travel and dealing with a hectic work schedule the past couple of weeks and got to put in some practice this morning. Got going with a 270 followed by a 276 which isn't bad for me considering the break. If I get real for a minute my problem is I simply need to put in more practice. I'm ...

Re: Returning to 3 Position: 20+ years later
Hi Tim, I certainly see your point with the legacy butt plate design, but I wouldn't call it a good design period. Stacking hollow dowels with shims to push out a carrier that moves when you tighten is just overly finicky. Also requiring that the butt plate height adjustment requires an allen key is...

Re: Returning to 3 Position: 20+ years later
Yeah, my PCP does have the wedge/spacer arrangement for adjusting LOP and the cheek riser position. I don't need a stock that doubles as a transformer, but the current method of stacking a bunch of different pieces is not the best. I'll probably just make my own spacers as my positions evolve. The l...

Re: Returning to 3 Position: 20+ years later
Since I started this thread a couple of weeks ago I've adjusted my positions some for more consistent head position. I think has helped eliminate a bit of my prescription glasses distortion, but I I still lose a point here and there if I am not vigilant. This usually happens on prone where I have th...

Re: Returning to 3 Position: 20+ years later
Yes - i used the incorrect term on my earlier post. I was indeed referring to an iris with filters - not an iris with a magnification lens or a corrective lens. I am not considering any options with a true lens as part of a front or rear iris. So is erikre's suggestion of something like this https:/...

Re: Returning to 3 Position: 20+ years later
As for a lensed iris i did find a number of helpful threads. Seems like for indoor they are kinda 'meh'. Some people like the yellow, others don't care. My indoor range lighting is fair, so I have just been stopping down the rear iris if things are bright. Outdoors the filters sound more helpful. A ...

Re: Returning to 3 Position: 20+ years later
Thank you for the replies. I will look into the idea of the rear sight lens holder, however my local range requires some sort of protective glasses. I still can see benefit in 'locking' my prescription lens to a fixed position. While my eye sight is dog s, I can still load and shoot w/o my glasses. ...

Re: Returning to 3 Position: 20+ years later
Complicating matters is that I wear heavy prescription glasses (my dominant eye is around a -8.25, non dominant around -9). As such I am not going to wear shooting frames since I can't really function without my prescription glasses and am not going to wear contacts. The thickness of my prescripti...

Re: Returning to 3 Position: 20+ years later
First set of questions deal with diopters/irises and shooting with heavy prescription glasses... So the air rifle came with a Gehmann D75 front and rear iris set. The set is fully functional, but I couldn't find much information on the D75 series - not that surprising since manufacture was marked a...

Returning to 3 Position: 20+ years later
Hello All, As a junior I shot 3 position smallbore and standing air rifle in the late 90s (3 PAR wasn't on the scene yet). I was good enough to make sectionals and enjoyed the sport tremendously, but then 20 some odd years of adulthood happened. Finally I have gotten back into 3 position shooting wi...

Re: Older Tier 1 SSP and CA/PCP Rifles?
I wanted to post a quick follow up - A couple of weeks ago I purchased a very nice Anschutz 2002ca from jindodog here on target talk. The transaction was super smooth and jindodog was great to work with in every aspect. The last precision air rifle I shot was in 2000 as a Jr - a 2002 Superair (did 3...

Re: Older Tier 1 SSP and CA/PCP Rifles?
Hi Spektr - by gear I was actually referring to air rifles, but yes I get your drift. I haven't ruled out a new PCP, and I plan on contacting a couple of manufactures with questions on a few of their PCPs. In general I opt for used equipment because I'm a competent repairman and can often save subst...
