Re: Tec-HRO Fanatic Forearm Width
Ah it was something like the Proliner I had in mind, I doubt you'll find much stiffer. Maybe another option might be to find a piece of thick leather or rubber etc, and put that in the palm of your hand to try and imitate a wider stock? If it worked maybe you could cut it to shape and glue the bits...

Re: Tec-HRO Fanatic Forearm Width
Another option to increase the forearm width or change the corner radius is a bolt-on forearm section. I've made a few for guys that preferred the height and corner radius feel of an 1813-style forearm over their Precise stocks. The last one I made was for a Fanatic stock. Depending how you orient ...

Re: Tec-HRO Fanatic Forearm Width
Have you thought about trying a different glove rather than changing the stock? A stiffer or slightly bulkier one might well solve the problem That's a thought, and certainly a cheaper option than a new stock. I'm using a Monard Proliner right now, which seems quite stiff already. I suppose I could...

Re: Tec-HRO Fanatic Forearm Width
No apologies necessary -- I appreciate the details and the lived experiences with those stocks. I saw the SE as well and I did find what I think is a forearm width: it's the same as the Precise if memory serves (though now, of course, I can't find where I tracked it down). I''ve heard the same about...

Re: Tec-HRO Fanatic Forearm Width
Extremely helpful, thank you so much!
How do you like the stock in general? I'd likely only be using it for prone.

Tec-HRO Fanatic Forearm Width
Anyone have a Tec-HRO Fanatic that they'd be willing to measure the forearm width on? I'm in the market for a stock to replace my Precise, and my number one complaint is the forearm width: it's narrower than I'd like but finding an alternative that isn't $3000+ has been a challenge. Appreciate any h...

Re: difference between 10 click and 20 click Anschutz sights
Any Anschutz rear sight no matter the age should fit your 2002 SSP: they haven't changed that standard in decades and the rounded/curved top has never mattered that I know of. For the front, the easiest way to check is to just see if the rear sight will clamp onto the front dovetail: if it does, you...

Options for Centra Adjustable Front Aperture Repair
The adjustable front sight aperture on my Palma gun managed to lose part of the inner bit that provides the adjustable ring in the middle of my last match. Any options for repair, besides just buying a new one?

Re: FWB 800 -- Travel Case Recommendations
+1 for the iM3200 from me, too. It strikes the right balance of length, and can fit cross-ways in the trunk of any sedan on the market. The airlines don't even give you a second glance about it being oversize. The only downside is that since it is so common, you definitely need to add some markings ...

Re: Any stores for ISSF shooting apparel in southern Califor
Elite Shooting Sport, and Joe Hein, the owner, are terrific; but I believe the OP was looking for something a little closer than 1100 miles... :-)
They would be another vendor to get in touch with, though.

Re: Any stores for ISSF shooting apparel in southern Califor
Unfortunately there aren't any stores in or around LA anymore since Creedmoor moved to Alabama. Your friend could likely arrange for Champion's Choice or one of the other vendors to ship items to their hotel while they're in the US, but there isn't a store you can visit to try on items, sadly.

Re: Anschutz 1918 stock question
The stock itself is Right vs. Left Handed. While you can likely swap the grip, you won't be able to switch the cheekpiece to the other side. Also, the stock has a slight offset to the right for a right-handed action, so even if you could swap the cheekpiece it would likely feel fairly weird. In addi...

Re: Anschutz 6702 or 7002 ??
Assuming your current sight is working fine from a mechanical standpoint, the only real advantage of the 7002 sight is the ability to adjust for cant in your position. The ability to bring the elevation and windage knobs back to true vertical and true horizontal is a big advantage when you have the ...

I will second everything Joel said, especially the parts about her not being done growing, and the benefits of getting measured by an authorized representative of whoever you decide to get the suit from. I can certainly understand if it's not practical (it wasn't for me, here in San Diego), but at t...

Re: correlation between 50yd outdoor and 50ft indoor 3-P
I shoot a lot of A-51s in training, and a lot of A-23s in competition. Typically your A-23 Xs are A-51 10s, 10s are 9s, 9s are 8/7, etc.
That's, of course, a rough estimate, but it should give you an idea of what to expect.

Re: 1918 Anschutz Precise Stock - Pistol Grip Large vs Mediu
I have small to medium size hands but use the large grip. When I tried both side by side the only real differance was that the small was thinner than the large (think 0 vs O), it wasnt smaller in length front to rear. I preferred the large and have even added material to it to try and make it more ...
