Pretty amazing Gary. I don’t even know how you hold that little P938 grip let alone shoot so well— even slowly.

So “zold,” nem “zöld?”

Heyles, igen

“Green” was too boring and I didn’t use “ö” because it’s not available on all platforms.

Thank you. That means a lot coming from you :+1:

VZ grips, replacing the plastic trigger with aluminum trigger, adjusting springs for a consistent 5 pound trigger pull, and a much heavier than factory recoil spring* all came together to make a surprisingly easy little shooter.

Had a father/son/friend outing at the range today. This is my friend’s son’s target. Not bad for his first time shooting. Was shooting a bit low, but grouping was good. We took a deep dive into safety and technique and really just got them exposed to shooting for the first time.

We had a great time. My son’s friend has never shot before and wanted to shoot. We shot a bit of everything.

My friend wondered why he had a second big hole in his shotgun target. So he learned what a “wad” is. Great learning experience. Also got the chance to give my own son a bit more formalized instruction since I was teaching new shooters.

Precision Nodes…

I didn’t even know what these were until a couple of months ago. It was a beautiful day in Santa Fe, perfect to go out and do some testing. This is Berger 6.5 Creedmoor 153.5 gr at 200 yards.

7 different bullet seating depths, left to right, and top to bottom:
0.169” (stock), 0.090”, 0.075”, 0.060”,
0.045”, 0.030”, 0.015”, my setup.


I don’t think I even need statistical analysis to understand the 0.075” is best.

Very good!! What scope is on your Berger and what’s the barrel length?

Berger is the ammo manufacturer. The rifle is a Sig Cross-PRS with a 24” barrel and a Daniel Defense SG-30TIL suppressor. The optic is a Vortex Strike Eagle 5-25x56 FFP.

:man_facepalming: What was I thinking, “Berger” :laughing: :hamburger: But yeah, that’s a great set-up you have there. Reason why I asked, Been looking into a Sig Cross Sawtooth but stuck on choices of scopes, thanks for the info!

I found both Ryan Cleckner’s Long Range Shooting Handbook, and Shepard Humphries & Scott Austin’s book, Extreme Long Range Shooting Fun, to be very helpful when considering what to buy.

I’m very happy with my Sig Cross. It’s been a very satisfying factory build, and even without tuning my ammo, I’ve been able to hit a 16” target at 1+ mile.

Looking forward to seeing what you put together.

That red paint is pretty faded. You might need to repaint it so you can see it. :joy::rofl::rofl::joy::stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes::woozy_face:
