The Everyday Sniper Episode 83 Gunwerks Blown Primers

The Everyday Sniper Episode 83 Gunwerks Blown Primers
I am here in Cody, WY, getting ready for the registration and sight in day at the Gunwerks PRS match.  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.  Lucky I was able to swap bolts to work 
Spring handloads in a hot summer rifle is not the answer here and I need to go mild. 
Thanks for listening to the Everyday Sniper and hopefully you can learn from the mistakes I make.
Cheers, 

The Everyday Sniper Episode 82 Gunwerks Pre Match

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 zeroed together. This is the benefit of the Gain Twist Barrel.
Lots going on, conversations on Sniper's Hide, talking wind, BCs, Truing, and all those recurring topics. 
Thanks for listening and Sharing.

Marc Taylor and I have finished up this block of classes and go over a few of the highlights for you.
The fundamentals of marksmanship, the difference between teaching guys with hunting rifle vs tactical rifles. 
We see a lot of variety in students and that in my opinion makes us better instructors.

The Everyday Sniper Episode 78 Alaska PR 1
Hey Everyone listening to the Everyday Sniper. Up here in Talkeenta Alaska at the Sheep Creek Lodge with my former platoon SGT Marc Taylor.  We teach a series of precision rifle classes for a great group of new and returning precision rifle shooters. We focus on the fundamentals and making marksmansip vs gaming. I get it, context matters, but man nothing bets a true marksman. 
I the gap was not too annoying but we are busy and moving around the country doing our thing.
