How do you get more trigger time with your FTR rig without costing a fortune in ammo and bore wear? Well, Klemen P from Slovenia has a very interesting solution. He is shooting a Kepeller Rifle with a rimfire and 308 barreled action. These are near identical and mount to the same stock. The ergonomics are the same so form and position does not vary. Here is the rimfire version. Note the tuner. Love the all the adjustments possible with the Kepeller stock. Looks like the typical excellent design and manf typical of quality European rifles. And here is the 308 FTR. Klemen writes: Hi Jerrry, I went from international match already. It was held in Serbia, a big ammo & reloading components manufacturer “Prvi partizan” hosted “PPU 2014 CUP”. We shot at 300 & 500 meters (F-class open and F-TR). Bad weather, two days of rainy & windy conditions. I used the same rifle (only one – 308 WIN) & your bipod for all events (even open). I liked it a lot, no bounce, good tracking, light weight, rock solid, only adjusting took me a lot of time (height & canting adjustment). I won both 300m events, finished second in 500m TR (3 ponts behind winner) and third in 500m open (1 point behind). Results are not published yet, will send you link when they will be. A lot of guys looked what I use, so I did some marketing job for you. If you need test pilot for one free new generations bipod you are developing, please feel free to mail me :-). In 300m events I...

Frank D of Petawawa picked up a Rem 700 ACCSD recently but wasn’t happy with the stock. I suggested the Choate Tactical with a Tac Pro adjustable cheek to keep costs down without compromising performance. Here is his finished rig taken at a recent match in Ont. Rem 700 ACCSD in 308, Vortex HST Viper 4-16X44 in MRAD. Really nice pic by CGN handle, klink1983 200yds group with his bet 168gr Handloads. Frank notes ” I noticed a marked improvement from my first attempt shooting at 600yds. The only thing this stock doesn’t do is eliminate hard cross winds” Enjoy the stock and learning to read those hard cross winds....

I am thrilled to announce that my MPOD will now be produced by Evolution Gun Works (EGW). Many will know of their great scope bases, rings and 1911 parts.

Congratulations to Steve B of British Columbia, Canada for an amazing performance at the Berger SW Nationals Feb, 2014. Shooting a 300RSAUM and 210gr VLD Bergers from a McPhee barrel, Steve set a new NRA F Open Masters Grand Agg Record with a score of 1223-50X (possible 1250-125X) in challenging conditions. First in MASTERS and the 12th highest score overall of a field of over 250 shooters. The Surprise? Steve used the MPOD for the entire match. What a bipod in Open? Yep…. Consistent tracking and ability to handle higher recoil, the MPOD helped Steve hammer the center of the target. An adaptor was made to mate the MPOD to the Remple mounting block. Welcome to HIGH MASTER and continued success. Jerry ...

Continuing his success from the World Championships, Nik Taylor sets another two NRA records at 300 and 500yds at a recent match in Dec. He writes: “Jerry, It was the North Carolina Mid-Range State Championship (300-500-600 yards). Saturday was 20 shots at 3-5 and 6 with an extra 20 shot match at 600, I was clean through the first 3 matches (600-48x). My 300 yd. score of 200-18x was a national record and my 200-16x is a new record (I’m already the national record holder with 200-15x). Unfortunately I dropped a point in the 2nd 600 yd. match. Conditions were cold, overcast with a 3-5 mph tailwind that picked up later in the day. Sunday was also cold and fog started to move in just as relay 2 finished up, I was shooting 3rd and before I got to shoot we had a 1 1/2 hr. delay waiting for the fog to clear. I was shooting my number 2 rifle on Sun. it’s not quite the tack driver that my #1 rifle is but I wanted to even up the round count on both guns. Sunday saw the wind pick up considerably as the day went on. I dropped a point at 300 to vertical, cleaned 500, and by the time I shot 600 it was gusting up to 10-12 mph with a fast switching tailwind. I ended up dropping 2 points and thought I gave it away but Phil Kelley ended up dropping 5 points at the same time. It was a tight match with 3 of the top 5 F-TR shooters from the worlds participating. Take Care, Nik” Nik was shooting the MPOD to complement a very accurate FTR rifle which he...
