Thedrifter · Post by **Thedrifter** » Thu May 12, 2011 8:53 pm

Hello All, Hopefully this isn't too newb a question usualy i find an answere but i couldn't today,

quick back round
anschutz 1607-1807 167xxxX the stock takes shims to adjust LOP and Cheek rest. and is a tapered forend. my main sorce for parts is Mac Tilton at MTGuns in Santa barbara CA, and im close to L.A that has USA Shooting, have not had the chance to visit yet, i started 3-p shooting when i got to california in January "Airforce" back in Kansas i was shooting rimfire benchrest.

Rear Sight Question
Mac suggested an eclipse Sight i found no info on this particulare sight but he is very comfident in it, does anyone have any input here? or would i be better with the centra sight from Champions choice?
right now im using the $50.00 sight from champion shooters supply it's called avanti and made by daisy.

My front sight is Tompkins M22 with Anschutz 9523 Adjustable Aperture.

for my practicing Working mostly on standing i have been bouncing from 25-50 yards would a 1" group be good for someone with my exp level at 25 with mid grade ammo?
my goal here is to get good particing in without shooting the expensive ammo, so im trying to save money. and get simular results

thanks for your help guys
Keating

o yes i all most forgot my Stock Question
I have been watching videos from all the profesionals and not very many are using a tapered stock for 3-p shooting, and in a conversation with Mac he mentioned most rifle technology is in the stock. would i be fair to assume i could be more comfortable with what is considered a free stock? im not fond of the adjustment's method with my stock i went as far as to cut my own shim's to make the adjustment more appealing to me. for LOP and the cheak rest height.

and what are some good sorces, i know of Master Stock's, Champion Choice, Gun Broker, Ebay, and MT Guns, any others?

yes you probably would be much more comfortable in a free rifle stock. there are many out there.
Brenzovich sells the GE stock
Anschutz stocks are available multiple places
The walther Anatomic is my favorite
the MEC stock is available from Monard, Center Shot and ISS.

ps Come down to the range some day. I shoot at the LARR.

good to know id hate to get down there and not know anyone, im going to sacramento next weekend to watch the state match there i also have family i will be visiting wile im up there but i do plan to start traveling every weekend.
im still getting my setup built and really would benefit from more individuals of a shared hobbie,

on a plus note after shooting my new annie today benched at a 100 yards i managed to get a couple groups of 1/2" 5/8" with Federal UM22 also RWS R-50 same stuff i was very pleased now i just need to shoot that well.

Well pretty much everyone shoots Eley and SK here. We have a very good quality machine rest available for ammo testing.
Im the kid with the long hair. You cant miss me. I will be shooting the 3P match.
