The Everyday Sniper Episode 86 Passion vs Payout So I have been getting a lot of feedback regarding the PRS talk in the Gunwerks episode. So I wanted to address it as best I could.

I really have no interest in discussing the PRS as a series anymore. I have no issue with talking competition I just dont want to ventu...

I managed to dope and check everything usng the Tikka Tac A1. Everything went like clockwork with the 130gr Prime ammo, but switching to the hot and heavy handload it immediately blew a primer and broke the bolt.

The Everyday Sniper Episode 82 Gunwerks Pre Match Just getting ready to leave for the Cody Wy Gunwerks Match and ran into an issue with my Tikka Tac A1 in the heat. Popped 2 primers killed my ejector, had to run to MHSA to fix it. Logan took care of me, and got me back up and running. Because my range session was cut short, I am consider going 100% to my Prime Ammo load. Though I mix in some 136gr Scenars because I am expecting the wind to be bad. With my LH Gain Twist Barrel both loads are zero...
