I don't see how that invalidates my group analysis. I of course don't hold center for every shot ... that would be a weather report, not an assessment of system precision and accuracy.
I'm not invalidating your analysis. I said you are not shooting a 25 shot group, you shooting your card. You have to hold for your conditions. your analysis is good. That is the score shooting. I'm a long range steel shooter I hold for wind all the time. I go for hit %

This is a picture the military has never let anyone see until now.
This is a picture behind the scenes at Dover Air Force Base where the bodies of fallen soldiers are prepared for burial.
And that includes being properly dressed, all the way down to the smallest detail.
In this picture Staff Sgt. Miguel Deynes is making sure the uniform is just right for an army pilot recently killed in Afghanistan.
There is a very specific process once a fallen soldier is returned home.
The bodies are flown back to the U.S. on a cargo jet.
A team of service members wearing white gloves carries the coffins, covered with flags, to a white van that takes them to the Armed Forces Medical Examiner.
The remains are washed, the hands are scrubbed clean, and the hair is shampooed. If necessary bones are wired together and damaged tissue is reconstructed with flesh-toned wax.
Sometimes they will use photos, sometimes just intuition to recreate the wrinkles in faces, and the lines around the mouth or the corner of the eyes.
“It has to look normal, like someone who is sleeping.”
Once the body is ready then the uniform is prepared.
That includes putting medals in the proper order on the ribbon rack above the jacket’s breast pocket.
During the height of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan 10 to 20 bodies were arriving every day.
The embalmers often worked all night to get the bodies home on time. That can take an emotional toll so the mortuary has a large gym so workers can blow off steam.
Many say they are haunted by how young the fallen soldiers are, and by how many of them leave behind small children.
That’s why Sgt. Deynes says they are advised not to do research into the backgrounds of the soldiers.
“If I knew the story of every individual who went through here, I would probably be in a padded cell.”
The dress uniform being prepared in this particular case will be in a closed casket.
Even so, it will be perfectly tailored, starched and pressed. Everything will be checked down to the last detail.
Sgt. Deynes says, “They’re (the family) not going to see it. I do it for myself. It’s more than an honor it’s a blessing to dress that soldier for the last time.”
NEVER FORGET!

Geissele Cut Rifled SPR Build and Barrel Evaluation. (Part 4 (Load Development 28MAY25) Update!!!

Same. I've shot a lot of groups where 3-4 of them look great and the 1-2 outliers make me think it's a trash group. Then I'm pleasantly surprised when it's still a .8" group.

I think 7 twist originally caught on because "mil-spec bro!" and then hung around because the general consensus is that faster twist is needed for heavier bullets and heavier bullets tend to be match bullets that are more accurate. So people took that to mean faster twist=better accuracy.
Obviously it's not quite that simple, but given how retarded most people on arfcom or reddit are it's no wonder that this stuff is so prevalent.

Not saying 7 twist is bad, but given the bullet weights you can fit in an AR mag in 223/5.56 I find 7 twist to have no advantages and potential for some disadvantages.

Just a little secret here, Craddock barrels may be labeled 1-7 but most of his barrels actually have a gain twist in them. My personal favorite is a 1-7.7 Twist with a wylde Chamber.

We’ve been through this lol….. 5 shot groups vary in quite a bit. What some people say is a flyer is just a round within the actual dispersion population. This is why you can’t trust doing tuner testing or lot testing or even setting a zero with just 5 shots. Unless of course you overlay multiple groups to a larger aggregate. My guns that average in the low .3s at 50 will print 5 shot groups ranging from a ~.15 to a ~.45.
I don't just shoot a 5 shot group, I shoot many. You say your gun averages in the low .3's at 50 yds and 5 shot ranging .15" to .45" . Average is an AGG. Just like I am doing. Now that is funny.
I'm a long range steel shooter, I zero at 50 yds, get my ES and Tune for my vertical at 200yds and 300yds and my dope down range, and shoot steel.

Alright, so Ukraine just launched a massive drone terror attack on Russian air bases, when tomorrow, Zelensky is sending a delegation to Istanbul for supposed ceasefire talks.

The Trump admin confirmed they were NOT informed of this attack.

Zelensky continues to sabotage any attempts at resolving this situation diplomatically. He continues to provoke Putin, and allegedly tried to take Putin’s life via drone attack on his helicopter.

Maybe now Trump will understand why it is Putin has been striking the hell out of Ukraine, because Zelensky continues to play games, in the hopes of dragging NATO into the conflict directly to fight Russia for them.

The odds of a peace deal happening just went down dramatically, and I’m not sure how much longer Putin is going to tolerate this. Zelensky has never had any intentions of ending this war peacefully, because when it ends, he is a dead man, and he knows it.

Now all eyes move to Trump to see how he responds to this attack. Hopefully, this event will be the straw the breaks the camel’s back, and gives Trump the optics to go scorched earth on Zelensky and fully cut him off, and justify backing the US out of NATO.

Accessories Hawkins Heavy Tactical Scope Mount - 36mm, 1.5” Height, 0 MOA

Mint condition Hawkins Precision Heavy Tactical Scope Mount. 36mm tube diameter, 1.5” height (38mm) and 0 MOA cant. I only have one rifle that necessitates this high of a mount and I ended up going with a 34mm scope for that, so this is virtually unused.

$260 shipped. The only trade I’d consider is a Gray Ops precision scope mount in 36mm in either the 1.16” height (preferred) or 1.26” height. Otherwise, no trades.

Please PM with any questions, for more pics or if you’d like to talk/text/facetime. Thanks!

The official anti-Pride month thread

Annnnnddddd.... we're off!

I have a hunch it will be a lot more subdued this year...

Being a faggot is so passe now that the Potato and his rainbow warrior cabinet is gone.

Or maybe they'll move it all to Gaza. I bet they'll love them over there!

We can change it to Kill Dozer month. June 4th

How to remove weight from a foundation Samson

So I ended up getting a foundation Samson for my Terminus Zues QC. It came with the brass weight/rail. Way too heavy, switched to Aluminum and removed ALL Brass I could find. Still to heavy. I like the stick but it is too heavy still. I could try to sell it ( with both sets of weights) or find a way to remove another couple of pounds. Not sure how much ditching the black top weights buys. Not sure how to safely bore out the butt stock. Any ideas?

For ARA it is 25 single shot for a composite group for 25 rounds. The 40 rounds for F-Class is a composite group also. Both of these you are trying to hit a X. The composite is telling what group could be, but it is not 25 round or 40 round group fired at a single point. You are shooting your course of fire. I have shot IBS Score Centerfire and reduced yardage Centerfire F-Class, I know how it works.
