Bloke and Chap take on the Karabinerschiessen 2019 over open sights to see if they can medal in a "proper" competition.

Course of fire is: 2 sighters, 3 individual shots, 1x3 shot string, 1x4 shot string. No time limit.

Mike takes on the challenge of the October 2019 Historic Service Rifle match at the National Shooting Centre, Bisley, UK, with his trusty 2-groove Long Branch made Lee-Enfield No.4 in .303 British. This match consisted of 5 practices at 100, 200 and 300 yds, with the rifles shot "as-issued". Divi...

In which Bloke makes a point that should be obvious to anyone who's ever a) shot prone, and b) handled a pump-action rifle or shotgun...

Having previously done to death the use of .32 S&W Long wadcutter in Swiss M82 and M82/29 revolvers, we had another few revolvers handy with which to try it out: an Austro-Hungarian Gasser M98 in 8mm, a French St. Etienne Mle. 92, and a Trocaola (Eibar) "Spanish Model 92", the latter two in 8mm/9...

Bloke takes his Tikka T3x Arctic to the October 2019 Civilian Service Rifle League Match at Bisley, UK and shoots it instead of his habitual .303 Lee-Enfield No.4. How did he get on?

Bloke takes his fresh factory refurb UB61 BSA-made 7.62mm (.308 Win) L1A1 SLR (British FN FAL variant) out at 300m, zeroes it and has a bit of a play prone offhand.

Chappy tries his hand at the début de siècle pre-WW1 French Berthier Cavalry Carbine exercises. How does he do with his 8x50R Lebel M16 Berthier Mousqueton?

Bloke takes his shiny new M16A1 from 1980 +/- 3 years to the 300m range and sights it in. And is rather impressed by it. Chappie rather likes it too! Man of tastes, he is

A little teasing look at Chappie's Manhurin-built SIG SG 540 in .223 Rem on the 300m range.

Blokey likey. It's kinda the M16A1 of the SIG range :)

Also served as practice for working with a handheld Rode Wireless Go in an interview stick.

Following an earlier vid on the Sterling's mechanics, I had the fine fellows of M426 in Wangen an der Aare block my Sterling Mk.4 / L2A3 SMG at semiauto, so that it can actually be fired on a range any time (not permitted if it's still a full auto, even if only firing semiauto). This is the one p...

Mike takes his open bolt Sterling Mk.4 in 9mm Para out to 100m and 200m to see what it's capable of at its sighted ranges, which are pretty much "long range" for an open-bolt SMG. The results are interesting though!

In which Mike looks if he can verify results from various US army M16A1 test reports, namely on page 17 of this one: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vjkGkmbg-uua9gqo46A0xcHxClJuz5SX/view?usp=sharing

There's also reference to the M16A2 from this report: https://drive.google.com/file/d/12qua8Eg...

Mike takes his 9x19mm STEN Mk.2 (blocked at semi auto) to 100m to see how it does at the far end of its doctrinal range. It's rather optimistic, but how did he get on?

It's always interesting to be able to try two particular pistols out next to each other on the range, particularly when one is a modification of the other. In this case, the Daddy-Gat is a 1974-dated FN Browning GP-35 Hi-Power, and the Son-Gat is an FN BDA-9 (not to be confused with the other BDA...

Organised by @Riflechair in Canada, Bloke and Chap attempt the Cabin Fever Challenge 2023 in Division 6 (.22 Rimfire) at 50m on a 4" target. How did they get on with Bloke's Victor Arms / CZ / ADCO / LUVO V-22 upper on an Oberland Arms AR-15 lower?

Organised by @Riflechair in Canada, Bloke and Chap attempt the Cabin Fever Challenge 2023 in Division 5 (Muzzleloading) at 50m on an 8" target. How did they get on with Chap's French 1859 Chasseur carbine, loading from as-original-as-possible paper cartridges?

It's well-documented that the light-barrel L8 and Sterling 7.62mm (.308 Win) Lee-Enfield No.4 conversions shot low compared to .303" to the point they couldn't be zeored with the normal front sight set, and a lowered datum line rear sight was the solution. This is due to the difference in "jump" ...

So what we're looking at here is, if we put a CMMG .22 Ciener-type conversion set in a straight-pull Schmeisser SP-15 (with no gas, so not semi-auto), what is the difference in point of impact, of grouping capacity, and when we put it back to .223, will we have problems with extraction due to all...

In which Bloke demonstrates, with the help of an L39A1 Lee-Enfield 7.62 / .308, three different ways to use a two-point sling for support: Hasty with the butt and action swivels, and also Crossover, which you may not have heard of, and which requires an action swivel or other middle attachment po...
