No surprise on the LT 32. It was my choice for 40 gr. Bergers, but the last lot delivered slightly lower MV. I couldn't comfortably get enough in to achieve the desired velocity. That was in the...

LT-32 in the VarTarg

I used LT-32 in the VarTarg with the 40 gr. Berger in the 20 VT LV at the Super Shoot in '19. It's a challenge to get enough in the case, but it came close to my target velocity. Long drop tube...

Nice.

I've also been looking at photos of past shooting events. The number of friends no longer with us is significant. I realized that on several of my photos, I'm the last man standing. Gives one pause....

e-mail to Sightron

I got a 4 word response from Sightron re: missing set screw - "what is your address?" I think I'll have a solution.

Thanks for pointing me toward the key hiding in the box, guys.

Sightron Target Knob re-set

Hopefully someone has the answer. I would like to re-set the knobs on my SIII to zero. The instruction says what size allen key to use - either a 1.5 mm or the next size up in 64ths. I tried every...

I would say "probably." Unless you can see something funky in measured velocity from shot to shot. Or the barrel is loose.

Did I miss how much stringing? Like an inch?

What powder? Did I miss it? Given the charge, not H-4198. That would be scary.

Ignition problem? High SDs? If so, what primers?

Scope issue?

Does the barrel feel funky in spots when you...

Quite enlightening. Thanks for the response.

I, too, have abandoned Lil' Gun after ruining too many cases. I use AA1680 with the 40 V-Max with good results.

I gave up on Lil'Gun in my Cooper K-Hornet. Ruined lots of brass and got really high standard deviations. Different bullets and different primers. Strange stuff. At least in the K case. Yes I did...
