I was under the impression that using a compensator on a rifle was illegal under rule 7.4.1.5 but in the 3P finals there was a shooter with a bloop tube that I would essentially call a compensator. My question is is it actually a compensator? If it is how was it legal?

Feinwerkbau also makes a 2700 'Leicht' which has a 22mm fluted barrel which I believe they are referring to.

I've found that European sizes are relatively accurate to what they say they are. Then again I usually just get the biggest size they carry ;)

I've used the first and fourth option and for me the first one was better, as previously mentioned I would get distracted by the receiver clamping one but with the screw-in level I would be able to see it out of the corner of my eye with out paying it much attention. For me using the level inside th...

Yes, I have my 700 set to 35ish grams first stage and 70ish grams second stage and it breaks like glass. I remember having to fiddle with it for a few hours to get it exactly where I wanted it to be but it was well worth it.

I've charged my cylinder (FWB 700) maybe 1000 times in the past 3 years and have yet to have even the slightest leak. The only thing wrong with my cylinder is a crack in the manometer glass from poor handling at the airport.

That's how my coach stores our elements, I use an Iris so I don't use elements anymore.

FWIW I shoot with a 5.2 on a 690mm barrel with a 10 inch tube.

IIRC We used A50 or A51 Targets (can't remember which) for our state outdoor metric match.

The pellets were good for me, but they shot mediocre in my FWB 700 so I stuck to H&N Pistol Match.

Talking to Sgt. Lorenzen, she said that personality was also a big deal.

For example my FWB 700 LOVES H&N Pistol Pellets 4.50mm but doesn't like Meisterkugeln 4.50mm. You just gotta try a few out and see what your rifle likes and what you feel YOU can trust.

Well look at the current value of one new which is 2700-2800ish then start knocking off money for the pieces missing, 225 for the cylinder and around 475 for a rear sight so we have 2000-2100. How much do you feel it to have depreciated? If it looks like a service rifle knock off say 700 but if it's...

The biggest thing I don't like about my Alfa Proj would be the trigger, after about 5ish hours I got it close to what it should feel like but it still feels like the trigger on a Savage MKII. I'm not even sure if it'll hold the 500g weight, it seems still too light to actually use. Also the rear bla...

Did he get new boots? He shot 3P today without being disqualified.

My position doesnt feel scrunched, I was only adding LOP to give distance between the rear sight and my eye it also helped to gain better position on the cheek rest, I only added 5mm. Anyways I am curious by what you mean to reach the plate ? that's not a phrase I have heard before. do you mean the...

From the pictures I would definitely increase the LOP, it seems uncomfortable to scrunch that much, I just fiddled with my LOP and it solidified my position a great deal (even cleaned my first card in competition (even better since my prone had been dragging down around my kneeling scores for a mont...

You could always open a separate "Politics" Forum.

I make adjustments if I need to otherwise I don't. If my group starts to shift, I start to click. Pretty simple IMO, if stuff really shifts rapidly (e.g. going from deep 10s to weak 9s) I tend to reevaluate what I'm doing in my shot process (I tend to get lazy and try to cut corners).

I've had a FWB 700 for three years now and have never cleaned it, it's never really needed it. The 603 being a SSP really wouldn't need cleaning unless the velocity started to drop which if i remember right indicates either worn seals or dry seals due to lack of lube. The barrel never needs to be cl...
