    More suitable for a fallow's? Never mind, I think you mean the blade chord is too deep? I could see that being a pain...

    Micky Duck liked post by No.3 On thread : I finally managed a "sub MOA group"
    I have a 3 shot group that looks phony - all three through the same hole. You can only tell by the very slight cloverleafing. I've never been able to do that again either! Nice group though, frame...

    Russian 22. liked post by No.3 On thread : making my alicraft watertight
    Again, I'd be reluctant to paint an older hull just from past experience (which was dramatically terrible - the coating actually created a lovely corrosion stop and the hull blistered under the...

    Yeah, sitting on a clearing in the Kaimais is a long road to boredom with the occasional moment of total embarrassment haha. Usually when you turn around and there's a yearling hind standing there...

    Roarless20 liked post by No.3 On thread : Twist Rate:Projectile Weight
    Don't be too caught up in projectile shapes - it's the length of projectile for the twist that governs stability. Boat tail bullets have slightly less bearing surface than flat base meaning lower...

    6x47 liked post by No.3 On thread : Read if you have Hornady Camlock Bullet Puller
    The pliers thing might be OK for longer bullets that aren't crimped (and I have done it) but on anything with a crimp, sealed or softer jacketed the pliers will write the pills off. The collets have...

    Not so much the wrong chambering as the same factors would likely influence whatever else is chosen. It comes back to the trajectory, every extra inch of drop at 100 shortens your usable effective...
