Anyone doing this cyber symposium thing tomorrow?

My mother has been literally obsessed with the election being stolen. I can't talk to her about her bathroom being remodeled without somehow it coming up and turning into the main focus of the conversation to the point I can't get her off the phone.

Has texted me the last 2 days to remind me this cyber symposium starts Tuesday.

I totally get it; it was 11110% a stolen, fraudulent election. I completely agree and its beyond obvious. Hell, I bet they even have actual proof.

I hope this guy lights the world on fire with this as there are 70m+ people whose vote was literally ripped up in their face. I just can't see much happening from this though as I'm sure the 'news' will take the 2 little things that are maybe only 98% true, and run a story for 24 hours about how they 'caught' him in a lie and its all BS, blah blah blah.

I see us actually getting lectured by the muppets in Washington for this lol But honestly, I've always said we just need a focal point and a mission. 1 guy goes out to do something and your a terrorist. Yet 10k of you go, and well, that's different.

But what is this really going to achieve? I mean, I KNOW it was total fucking fraud....

They still won't stop

Man,

We are living rent-free in their heads,

The spikes are the attacks, which is why we see the Resource error message, they continue to try and take this place offline

On top of that, I saw the Twitter Jerks are still mentioning the site and are upset they couldn't take the "domestic terrorists and extremists" offline

They tried de-platforming us when they realized that wouldn't work they went this route apparently

CLE & Bartlein Sweetness

I needed to run a few more rounds through the SPR before I felt confident in developing a load. It only had 40 rounds down the tube, and I'm still running the load from my last upper. Wife asked to go too. Sure why not; it's just trigger time.

I crack off three and rang steel at 200, 300, and 400. I set it up for 300 because that is the largest plate at 12", and the wife leaves a gray spot in the center. I say lets try 400. She throws three rounds at a 40% IPSC at 400 yards and...

We drove out to the target, and it was a 2 3/16" group. She asked if that was good, and I said, well I know bolt guns that don't shoot that good.

I've since switched the plate rack at 400 to 4", 3", and 2" squares for a sort of KYL rack. I centered the 4" first shot, dropped the first low at the 3", and caught it with the second, and center punched the 2" with the fourth shot.

I can't recommend CLE and Bartlein enough. CLE puts together one damn fine rifle with arguably the best customer service, and we all know Bartlein turns out the best tubes.

So what’s your opinion? They fired him

If I knew how to imbed the video I would.

China video

Login to view embedded media
I’ll post both.

So the story….

A teacher showed this video to ( I believe 5th grade class? Could have been 6th) his class. It was at the end of the hour and there was not time to discuss any of it. He excluded slides 18-20.

The district did an investigation ( HR did a hit job on him ).

It was brought to the school board and the accused asked for a public hearing so it’s on video.

He was accused of being a racist and distributing/contributing racist views towards Asian people. He has played this video for the past 5 years.

One student ended up going home in tears and complaining to his parents. A official complain followed. A legal opinion was given to HR and given to board members.

Discussions followed in an open session. One member was pragmatic and openminded, the remaining members TOTALLY FREAKED OUT!

The vote was 4-1 in favor of firing.

This was supposed to be a leaning conservative district.

What your opinion?

The horrors of North Korea

One of Joe Rogan's latest podcasts with Yeonmi Park, a NK defector, is probably the most disturbing stories I've ever heard. We have all heard the tragedy that is North Korea, but I've never heard the 1st hand accounts of someone that lived there in such detail. It really is heartbreaking and terrifying. She explains also what China does and how they are really the mind behind the curtain. It terrifies me because there are so many people in the US that THINK they want that in our country. Makes me wish I was the commander in chief so I could wipe Xi and Kim off the map. Go give it a listen if you feel the need to be thankful you were born here. I wish there was a way this could be played in every HS and college classroom.

If you are a serious buyer, and located within a couple hours or Jacksonville, Florida I’m not opposed to meeting in the middle (cash or PayPal) deal. I do drive to North Carolina often (95 north), and will be heading to East Texas a couple of times in the next coming months (I10 to Mobile, then there are a couple different ways I can drive).

I have bought and sold some high end items from the hide. You can look at my feedback it speaks for itself, but as a person I only own two things is this world “my name and my word” if anyone of those thangs are messed up then I need to look in the mirror and fix myself, but it has been a long while since one of those to items have gone astray.

FaceTime works, phone calls work, texts work, funkie pictures Yuuuppp I can do those as well. Hell Joe Walls (OTM/exodus rifles) is less than 8 miles from my house. I can set up a time with him to look it over if someone wants that as well.

One trades I’m looking for are 2 matching set of knees. One from a mid 20’s Athletic young lady for my wife, and another set for a mid 20’s athletic young man. The wife, and I both had double knee replacements within the last 2 months. But glory to god we are still making it around pretty good. My elk trip is not looking so good at this point though.

Thanks,
Jay

Stubborn Carbon Ring Removal

I got a borescope recently and had a look inside my tired old 6.5CM RPR barrel.

I'm pretty diligent about cleaning but not ridiculously so. The rifle gets cleaned before its stored for any length of time and I would estimate it never goes more than 100 rounds between cleaning.

At this point the barrel (stock) is probably getting close to end of life with ~2500 rounds through it and I have noticed the accuracy drop off. With 40.6 grains of H4350 it would send 140 Hornady BTHPs around 2650 and would make a cloverleaf at 200 but I cant get the same consistency any more.

With this in mind I figured I would check for the carbon ring and it seems to have one. The first picture is the "As Found" condition where the rifle was cleaned and put away and inspected recently when I acquired a borescope.

The second & third "As Left" pics are after cleaning (3 sessions) with Boretech carbon cleaner. I left a patch soaked in cleaner jammed into the throat area for an hour and then brushed with a slightly oversized nylon brush.

I think its *slightly* better but certainly not clean. With a standard rifle running a well used CHF barrel is it unrealistic to expect to get rid of it all?

My thought process is get rid of the carbon ring (as best I can) then shoot it to see if I still have issues (the gun was never picky until the last couple of hundred rounds), if so then the barrel is toast and I'll replace it.

These suckers sure are hard to move.

Carrying a side arm while recreating?

Curious how you guys carry side arms while out recreating. As I get ready for archery season I have been looking for a better way to carry. I usually just AIWB carry but it sucks when you are humping gear through the mountains all day.

I have a day pack with a waist belt and a chest pack with my binos/LRF. I prefer to keep the gun on me since I am one who will frequently drop my back to go crawl around in the bushes. My chest pack does not have room for a side arm. Razco does make a holster that will fit my chest back but it hangs the gun down below it which will put the gun right where my pack belt, pant belt, and waist all come together. It may work fine just seems like it would suck crawling.

I was looking at a Gun Fighter Kenai chest holster and wondering if I could run it underneath my bino pack but unsure how it would work having 2 stacked harness on under my day pack.

New phone, a few updates

Panty 6 is no more. I won...I suppose.

Bi lateral knee surgeries have me down for almost three months starting June 28th. I am 4 weeks recovery on the right and looking at the left being done in about four to six weeks.

I made a few knives of course...

Got a new phone so I lost numbers.


Quick and Dirty, if you have my number text me. Oh yeah, since this all started, I been in a very bad place, but I am doing ok now.
These helped. Kwaiken Camp knives for two old friends, one a punk rocker in Seattle, the other a GI I served with
