Formed informally, the committee is a group of target shooters who belong to disparate NRA affiliated clubs. They meet regularly to enjoy discourse and long range shooting. So named after a black and white photo resembling a meeting of a soviet collective farm, the committee is dedicated to safe shooting and a bit of science…….
Sig Sauer Kilo 2000 Rangefinder
When it comes to all things shoot related, I am probably one of the luckiest chaps alive. I work as an instructor at one of the very best ranges in the UK (Orion Firearms Training) and I get to see almost every variable piece of shooting kit there is, whether firearms, binoculars,……
Load testing with Reload Swiss RS60 and the GnZ Precision Rifle build.
I took a trip down to Bisley today in order to run a barrel break in on the .260Rem and do a little load testing. Although the weather was pretty awful the day proved fruitful and results were very impressive. You may have read the previous Presicion Rifle article which featured Mik Maksimovic at Dolphin……
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……
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

Building a Precision rifle – Part 1: MDT HS3 Chassis and calibre choice.
We have a number of rifles available to use here at GnZ. The calibres are the tried and tested old favourites.. .308, .223, .303, 30-06.. I thought it about time we got into something a little different. I decided to run a series of articles featuring a Precision rifle build. Precision/Practical rifle is growing in……
Reloading Rifle Cartridges 5 – Charging and bullet seating.
The next step is to add primers. The first thing to be considered is which size of primer you will need (small or large rifle). If you have selected .308 then you are likely to need the large rifle primers (unless you are using palma brass). If you are reloading .223 then you will need……
Two days in Wales…
Once again the Guns and Zen crew teamed up with Transcontinental shooting for two glorious days of shooting in Wales…
Day 1. Clays.
I will be the first to admit that my clay shooting sucks really badly. I have only been a handful of times and received no proper instruction on any occassion. I became pretty despondant……
Reloading Rifle Cartridges 4 – Brass Prep
By now you should have sorted yourself out some kit for reloading. If not please look back over the previous articles and go do your shopping! This article will focus on the reloading procedure – how to be safe, efficient and end up with consistent ammunition.
Prepping your brass
We will imagine that we are all going……
Range Day – Thoughts, findings and photos..
The one thing I always need more of in shooting is practice. The biggest improvement I can make is in my wind/enviroment reading. Sure I could drop a bundle of cash on better kit and probably pick up a few points.. Like many of you I am on a limited budget. If buying gear prevents……
