We have moved into a time where nearly every variable the long range shooter has to contend with can be calculated digitally. We have scopes with built in range finders, phones which can measure pressure, inclination, temperature. And of course we have ballistic calculators. Although companies have tried there is one variable that has proven……
Sniper Solutions – Sniper Hider
If you have ever shot scoped rifles in direct sunlight you will be aware that it can sometimes be a big problem. It can be a struggle to see anything with glare on the lens. Scope manufacturers will often sell a tube which screws onto the front of the scope. These act as a sunshade……
T.A.B. Gear
In this day and age it can feel like nothing is made to last the consumer forever. Worse still when products do fail then dealing with customer services or warranty issues can be a headache. I was recently amazed to deal with a company who seem to have a cast iron warranty combined with great……
Armageddon Gear suppressor cover
A suppressor, sound moderator or can.. Whichever name you call it they have positives and negatives. The positives are: reduced noise, reduced flash signature and reduced recoil. I have also found some suppressors used with some weapons enhance accuracy. I really like using them. They save my hearing and they give muzzle brake type recoil……
Review of the Ase Utra Jet-Z Compact moderator.

Building a Presicion Rifle Part 5 – Long range steel in the snow.
I must confess I am a little behind regards writing articles. I have been very busy shooting and testing kit which is very important or I would have nothing to write about! Last week I made the winter pilgrimage to Wales with some of the regular crew with a goal in mind. To run the……
Building a Precision Rifle Part 4 – Trueflite .260Rem barrel at Dolphin Gun UK.
So we had some fun with the rifle and its standard Remington .308 barrel which was to be fair suprisingly accurate. Now it is time to rebarrel the gun in our chosen caliber (.260Rem).
I spoke with a very informative gent at Trueflite barrels in NZ who really helped us out and put me in……
Load testing – Reload Swiss RS52
Reload Swiss are the newest propellant brand in the U.K. Propellants have suffered with supply problems in recent years here. Varget – the powder choice for many became virtually unobtainable and many other popular powders became a little hit and miss regards availability. The Reload Swiss brand was therefore highly anticipated.. The rollout was fairly……
Building a Precision Rifle – Part 3 – Extended range shooting.
The GnZ Precision rifle build has up to now been a huge success. At both 100yds and 600yds the rifle achieved very good results. Would this bear out at longer range. First we should bear in mind the budget so far..
MDT HS3 Chassis system – £500
Second hand Remington 700 ADL – £350
