Anyone else find it interesting that the book One Second After is set in Black Mountain, NC, which is just a few miles east of Asheville, NC? If you haven't read the book, what are you waiting for?

First, I got my second die set from WTC (first was 50 BMG, now 375 CT) and this thread is not about the dies per se, but rather about WTC recs to NOT use water soluble lubes (most of them including RCBS) because they can cause rust inside the die. They recommend STP oil additive +/- dilution with 20% 30 weight motor oil (because STP is so thick). I've been using this and it works great but this is the first time in my 30+ years reloading that I came across this suggestion. Would 90 weight gearbox oil work too? Because I have leftover of that from my motorcycle maintenance days.

Next, for (occasional) primer pocket cleaning, I used to use the RCBS wire thingies, but a while back I just started using a PP uniformer set at factory specs. It doesn't engage the brass of the PP, but it does clean the carbon down to a uniform depth very nicely, and I don't worry about it gouging the sides or going too deep.

Maybe I'm late to the party on one or both of these things. Opinions and experiences invited.

Recently picked up an OCL Polonium and am a fan, aside from all the salty hot lead in my face. Currently have been using it on a 16" barrel with a mid length gas system and a .750 low-profile gas block. In general I should be able to use a can on it for most of the ranges and what I go to, but I imagine there might some times I'll run it without the can on it. The Riflespeed AGB looks cooler and I like the idea of the adjustability without a tool. If I've read correctly on some other posts here aside form the AGB I'd likely need a straight gas tube as well, which they sell. The other option would be a Superlative AGB, which a few friends have recommended, though there's a lot of hand guard for the accompanying tool to go down past (and I half assume it'll get lost at some point.)

Anything else I should have in mind in choosing between the two of them, or is there any other option I should check out?

New Zealand's Lesbian Navy Captain Loses $100M Naval Ship in Peacetime Disaster – Ship Runs Aground, Catches Fire, and Sinks, Unleashing Oil Spill off Samoa Coast | The Gateway Pundit | by Jim Hᴏft

New Zealand’s navy has suffered its first peacetime ship loss since World War II when the $100 million multi-role support vessel HMNZS Manawanui ran aground off the southern coast of Upolu Island, Samoa, caught fire and eventually sank—triggering an environmental disaster in the process.

New Zealand Navy ship caught fire and sank in the Pacific Ocean
New Zealand’s navy has suffered its first peacetime ship loss since World War II when the $100 million multi-role support vessel HMNZS Manawanui ran aground off the southern coast of Upolu Island, Samoa, caught fire and eventually sank—triggering an environmental disaster in the process.
With all 75 passengers and crew evacuated, the vessel’s loss brings fresh scrutiny to the leadership under its openly lesbian commanding officer, Commander Yvonne Gray.
The Manawanui, originally built in Norway and repurposed for New Zealand’s Royal Navy with a substantial $103 million investment, was conducting a seabed survey mission when it hit a reef, according to maritime news outlet gCaptain.

Another consequence of DEI hiring initiatives?

Onboard were not only sailors but also civilian scientists and foreign personnel.
During a high-stakes nighttime evacuation, the crew was forced to abandon ship under perilous conditions, with life rafts tossed in violent seas and some occupants scrambling to reach shore through rough waters.
Three crew members required medical attention, with one for a dislocated shoulder and another for a back injury.

Any of you guys into dirtbikes? I’m looking at getting my 12yr old son his first bike. He was on a friends farm last week and picked it up pretty quick on a small pit bike. I could use some guidance though and have a a lot of questions.

Factory built Vudoo 360 barreled action cerakoted in green. About 800rds down the barrel. Shoots lights out. Full transparency I bought a lot of Norma 22lr ammo and the case rim thickness is a little too thick for this setup and you have to cycle the bolt harder than I'd like with that ammo. I am not interested in buying a bunch of new 22lr ammo to figure out what works best, so I'm going to let it go.

- Ace MTU barrel, threaded, 22"
- EC tuner

Just got this Geissele email and I wanted to share this with everyone here who didn't get the email. Geissele is helping Samaritan's Purse charitable organization raise money for the hurricane victims and 100% of the money raised is going to charity! Geissele is also giving away 10 of their rifles and they created donation packages that give you rifle raffle tickets AND a free Geissele AR15 trigger! It's a win/win all around, and it's a pretty great deal if you want to help donate money to the hurricane victims and get a new trigger for your rifle.

A $20 donation gets you 1 ticket for the rifle raffle, a free Geissele hat, and free bottle of of ALG Go-Juice

A $100 donation gets you 5 tickets for the rifle raffle and a free Geissele SSA trigger

A $160 donation gets you 8 tickets for the rifle raffle and a free Geissele SSA-E trigger

A $200 donation gets you 10 tickets for the rifle raffle and a free Geissele SSA-EX trigger

The most important part is that 100% of the funds raised goes directly to Samaritan's Purse to help the hurricane victims! Right now it sounds like Geissele and Samaritan's Purse are doing more to help the hurricane victims than FEMA, so please donate if you're able to! This fundraising drive ends October 11th, which is this Friday.

A while back, I decided that I wanted to go with barrels that would stand up to hard use a bit better than the run of the mill Ballistic Advantage or Roscoe type barrels and decided to go with Criterion.

I went with a 14.5 Core to run with a 10x scope, a 13.9 Core to run with an ACOG and a 12.5 Hybrid to run with a red dot and suppressed. The 12.5 gets the hardest use.

I don't handload anymore and when hunting for ammo, I look for a bang for the buck. I've run 77gr Razor Core, AAC 77gr and some other upper quality heavy rounds. I've also run 55gr V-Max from Black Dot Ammo, AAC 55gr V-Max, ADI 55gr Blitzking, etc.

The best all three barrels will do for me when running the heavier stuff is about 2 MOA. When running the lighter stuff, shooting MOA or better is easy. I can get 2.5 MOA with good M193 and M855.

Is this a characteristic of Criterion barrels or did I just manage to get three barrels that act the same way?

My Mk12 Mod 1 is close to complete. Just need a barrel, OPS/AE muzzle break and collar. Once I get those checked off the list, next up will be the AEM5. Help me complete my first clone and sentimental build, pretty please. Pretty open on pricing.

Ideally, I'm looking for a barrel from High Caliber Sales or PRI.

Update: All you scammers...go **** yourselves. Ain't gonna work on me. I'm not buying a barrel and muzzle devices from [email protected] from TX. You deleted your account after messaging me, which is as dumb as you are. I'm also not paying you when a simple reverse image search shows you stole a user's photo here and tried to pass it off as yours. In fact, just don't message me if you have no history/feedback here, because I will not answer. This is worse than GAFS.

CAF had a show in Dallas this weekend. I got to take a flight on "Thats All Brother" and check out some other great planes.
Lot of history in this C47. They had two others there as well. One is being Turned into a AC47 (Spooky). here are a few pictures of the trip. This C47 made the trip to Normandy this past June for the 80th Anniversary.
Highlight of the flight was when a P51 pulled up on our right side for a photo op. Lot of great folks involved with CAF and a wealth of Knowledge. Lot of younger men and women of all walks of life sharing the history of the people, equipment and planes they flew.
Here's a link to the story on Thats All Brother. https://thatsallbrother.org/
