  1. Доброго дня 🇺🇦
    А ты сам сейчас brownells пользуешь? Стоит ли его брать? У меня 18’’, rifle газовая система, фикс приклад+гидробуфер, регулируемый газблок.
    Стоит не мало, хотелось бы узнать у тех кто пользовал)
    Заранее спасибо 🙏

  2. Quite interesting! The overall group looks very similar, however the dispersion between first and second shot of each pair seems almost cut in half with the lighter setup! So the group size is probably more dictated by your ability to hold the rifle stable and still during offhand shooting. This supports my current view on lightweight setups, they don't really seem to matter that much for high pace short distance shooting, but will probably start to make a difference on (more supported) medium to longrange shots, where it should enable you to make really precise followup shots faster.
