Dang! Really? I had some yellow jackets in my yard a few years ago. Like you I ignored them at first but these suckers created quite the nest! Anyway I tried all kinds of things. Gas was the only thing that worked. Killed off a good size section of the yard, but worked. Hole still there but nothing been in it since. What did they tell you to use?

Its been ten years and two moves, but Ill look in the shed.

I would pick an action with 1-1/8" tenon diameter for any Lapua bolt face cartridge. Based on my experience with Norma magnums in Defiance actions, and comparing them to Borden Bigfoot/Surgeon XLs, the 1-1/16" tenon actions just can't take pressure like the beefier actions that were designed for that bolt face. You will hit pressure earlier in a 1-1/16", and in the long run you will face lug set back.

On Roku there is a Gunsmoke channel, 24/7. We watch it constantly it seems.

Need some troubleshooting assistance. Mark 7 on a Super 1050. Used for loading processed and primed brass. Has run smooth as silk for about 10k rounds.

Started getting an odd torque drive error on the up stroke. Press is over indexing. Problems started when I noticed the bolt for the index pawl arm had come loose. Took the pawl arm off, cleaned and lubricated everything.

Went a step further, removed the shell plate, cleaned and lubricated every thing and check for potential issues.

Took a moment to curse the design that requires 3 hands and a monkey to hold the top of the spring on the tit while screwing to the bolt back in on the pawl arm.

I am missing a small adjustment. Please Help me figure it out.

A few years ago I ran a test to get some idea what a difference is bearing surface length makes as I saw a difference between two lots of my 168 SMK's of ~.034" (it being a comparator measurement and not exact measurement of the bearing surfaces). What I found when comparing 20 rounds of the shortest to the longest, there was quite a difference in MV and a shift in POI. But I think one has to have a big difference in bearing surface length to see any such changes. I don't think one going to see enough difference within a lot (at least, not with the higher quality bullets) that would result in something than can be seen on target. . . at least, I haven't seen it with any lot of bullets I've had.

Here's that data taken from my chrono (when my reloading process wasn't as good as it is now ):

Nice analysis. I've seen the same variance in the 168 SMK )but don't remember the difference) but the rifle I'm shooting it in is a factory barreled Rem 700 so the bullet is jumping a country mile so its hard to compare it to a good competition chamber's effect.

I actually saw this for the first time not too long ago. It manifested itself on my AMP Press. I was seating bullets out of one box of a particular lot, ran out with about 10 to go. I grabbed another box of the same lot and they all exhibited about 10-15 lb more seating force (shown below in orange).

View attachment 8716008

I kept them all separate, but these were for a trip out to the hills and didn't end up recording the difference in performance. But what I did do was contact AMP and asked for their opinion. They saw that the press engaged about 20 thousandths of an inch earlier, leading them to conclude that the new box had a longer bearing surface, so was engaging the case sooner and staying engaged longer, resulting in the plots shown. They suggested comparing the two with a comparator.

If only I had one of the original bullets to compare...

Fortunately, if you want to call it that, one of my rounds out of the original box failed to fire. So I used that as a baseline and measured it against a number of bullets from the new box. They all landed at .020" longer, give or take.

Again, same bullet, same lot, ordered at exactly the same time.

This brings up something that has been bugging me for some time and I don't have the equipment to measure seating force. I've been playing with some Hornady 168 Match bullets from a 500 round box. Each 100rds is packaged in a sealed bag. I have noticed that once the bag is opened the bullets tend to tarnish with time as compared to the sealed bullets. Differences in the oxide layer will likely, in theory, change the seating force due to different lubricity. Has anyone seen the seating for change for a given "box" over time after opening?

Proverbs 31 gals are hard to find.

Even harder is finding a Proverbs 31 wife who stays a Proverbs 31 wife her whole life, especially when they go through deep personal suffering or trials; nothing like difficulty to weed out the chaff. I’ve personally experienced it when they mostly act like a P31 for over 20 years, then they faced difficulties and took a hard left turn abandoning their spoken ideals, committing adultery, and consorting with mediums. No way to see that coming. If you have a P31 wife, enjoy it while it lasts and pray it never ends cuz when they go bad, they don’t hold back.
