As you can see below, I'm all about "buy once cry once"... I just want to make sure I get the best tool for the job. I'll start researching the PraziPress. @A5scott have you used both the Forster Co-Ax XL and the PraziPress?

View attachment 8579463

blackened,

I use the regular size Forster Co-Ax, but not the XL.

I have the 140mm Prazipress and it's awesome. I also have it on an inline fab mount.

If you think you want to reload 20mm, get the 150 Prazi lol.

Got one of those 2'x4' floating frames done over the weekend. It is maple. The dark one is that burned pine that I sanded down and tried a stain/polyurethane coating on, but it is whipping my butt. I can't seem to get an even coat or it runs. I may just strip it and go to a stain then a clear varnish over the top as the all in one product is proving frustrating.

Tossed in a few pics of a leather buscedero holster I made a few years ago with my crest on it. Think I posted it in an old leather wokers thread we had here in the Hide. That one would probably fall down around your ankles @sirhrmechanic since it's built for a robust German named BigDaddy. Lol

I know freebore doesn't have anything to do with dies; never said it did. There was two separate reasons I wanted a custom reamer; one was to perform a short freebore experiment, and the other, was the ensure my chamber matched my dies exactly. (not really wanting to get into bushing dies at this time) Both are really an experiment to test what I've read out there. A lot of people read books or technical articles, or listen to what others say and repeat it as truth without doing the experiments themselves, I just dont want to be one of those people. Ive read a lot about how you get better consistency from shorter freebores. I want to see it in real life.

Are you trying trying to match a set of dies you have or are you going to have dies made from the remers

Got back from vacation.. Went straight to my PO box.. @Euro.Connor Got em! Very nice unit..

st1650 · Dec 30, 2024

Just came back from the range.
Shot it side by side with a Leica PRB 5-30 and a Athlon Cronus 4.5-29. Was mounted in a ARC M-BRACE 1.5in
It pains me but there was not much difference glass wise with even the Leica… for 1/3 of the price. Maybe 5-10% at the most. I had no problem identifying and hitting a 3in round plate at 550yards with snow behind and no problem at max magnification, wasn’t dark or hard to get behind. Was shooting a 20lbs 223 so very forgiving rifle but had no issues spotting myself at that distance. Did a little bit of positional shooting at 15x. Very forgiving as well. Center dot is perfect size for shooting tiny groups at 100y. I’ll most likely end up buying more.
Friendship ended with LOW, now DNT is my best friend.

I just need to vent a little , I have a niece that's marrying a butch woman , got the invitation back in the summer , the weddings next week , I never responded to the rsvp , mostly because I don't condone same sex marriage, so my brother calls (he's the grandfather) and asked if I'm going ,I let him know my stance on the matter and I won't be attending , I'm a Christian and I know I shouldn't judge others lest I be judged , but I'm not going to celebrate something I consider a sin , and yes I'm a sinner too , but the difference is I'm ashamed of my sins I don't celebrate them , still can't believe we have a pride month, my mom who's 86 said she's not attending either so at least I won't be the only family member not going , I'm I being a prude for not caving in to this shit , it will probably ruin my relationship with her father who I am sorta a second father to , but I guess that's the price I have to pay for standing up for my beliefs, what say the hide .

I don't think you are being rude. Don't let them try to bully you into submission either by using that as their platform to attack you.

Love the sinner, not the sin.

You have just as much right to not participate in their wedding as they do to invite you. At a wedding you serve a role as a witness, and as a Christian you are therefore serving as a witness to an abomination of God's will for marriage between man and woman. It is quite literally choosing to side with the enemy.

This doesn't mean that we shut the sinners out of our lives, for we have all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. It means that we still love them, but choose not to support what they do. If you shut them out, you further add to the barrier that they have in hopefully one day finding their way back. If you cave in and support them, then you are giving them the idea that what they are doing is okay too, and repentance isn't needed.

I won't be attending any gay weddings. That doesn't mean that I use my invitation as a launchpad for my lecture either. I think you are doing the right thing.

Alternately you could strap that on as an ankle back up and proceed to work around the farm. Good luck.

As I am neither Starsky nor Hutch... I'll take the earlier advice in your post!

Thank you very much... I like this approach and will attempt it!

See that the ATF head resigned ….guess the rats are jumping ship

Even if Brandon Herrera does not get or take the position as ATF director, we have several promising candidates to pick from. Another good choice would be William Kirk, the director of Washington Gun Law, a Seattle based legal firm with decades of expertise fighting for gun rights and shielding armed citizens who have used lethal force to protect life and property. The requirements for ATF director, if that institution cannot be abolished entirely, should be A: Near perfect understanding of Constitutional law as well as criminal law and how to apply discretion, and B: Support for the shooting world and the gun owner community, not support for antigun advocates.

The existence of that institution should be to combat violent crime and trafficking of weapons to entities hostile to the USA, not barrel lengths and firearms accessories...

No, not really. I’ve talked to several shooters who are hardcore ammo testers and they feel that Center-X has really fallen off the last few years. Eley Match/Tennex seems to kept up the consistency.

Agreed, I think the new center X isn't nearly as good as it was back when it came out.

Sometimes, the easiest and simplest solution is also the most tactful.

Nobody gets hurt.

You can decide if you want to gouge your tongue out for having uttered that filthy, sinful white lie later.

Then perhaps consider gouging your eyes out as well for having taken advice from Sniper’s Hide, where “nigger, chink, wetback, and fag” are easily pulled up through the Search Function. Right next to some very holy biblical quotes in some cases, it seems

Jesus loves all.

Or, quite possibly - Jesus is also sick of us all and plans to wipe us out and start anew after the Second Coming. Revelations is quite abstractly fanciful and open to all sorts of interpretation, moreso than the earlier “less exciting” books.

What... A nagger is just someone who annoys you. And a chink is something that you definitely do NOT want on the hull of a spaceship or deep sea submersible... A wetback can make you more susceptible to catching a cold. And fags are quite expensive these days at $10-20 a pack depending on where you at...

When I go hunting in the beginning of the season, I leave my house really early 3:00- 3:30am usually. I normally don’t put my rifle or shotgun in a case and usually just put them on the back seat. I have often thought about what would this look like if a cop happened to ride by as I am carrying my weapons to my truck in the early morning hours.

Hopefully it would be a cop that would figure “this guy must be going hunting” instead of “this guy must be up to no good”

The tolerances are probably so close that like you said, there can be flex issues. I would try skim bedding the action. This would allow for the variation between the stock and action.

bigdaddydmd · Dec 30, 2024

I don't know shit about wood, but I do know a thing or two about leather. What I have learned about wood so far is that I am not a fan of sanding and finishing. God, it sucks. Especially when I keep sanding back thru my coat because I put on the finish too thick and it runs and I have to redo it.

To age your leather gun belt I would mist it with a 50/50 mix of distilled water and 99% isopropyl alcohol or just use a 60% solution. Just mist it, not soak it so the leather is cool to the touch and "cased". Touch up the spots that would see the most wear like the bottom of the holster, bitter end of the gun belt, etc with some 600 grit sandpaper then bend, twist and work the leather while it is still damp This will add in some scratches and patina and cause the dye to lighten up. Hitting it all over with a nylon bristle brush like what you use to scrub the floor or a stiff toothbrush can add more patina. Let it dry and evaluate. Repeat if not the desired level of distressing. Then recondition the leather with some leather conditioner which will darken it back up.

Alternately you could strap that on as an ankle back up and proceed to work around the farm. Good luck.

If you can get ahold of a 60mm Mortar and some White Phosphorous rounds... that would be a great gift.

Sort of a preview of the hellfire and brimstone that those dykes will face soon enough...

And at your earliest opportunity, beat the living tar out of your brother for raising a fucking bull-dyke. Brothers should do that. It's like 'protected speech.'

Do not attend. Don't even send a card saying "Carpet Munchers Suck." Even though that would be funny.

I have been wanting to review a few scopes from maven. I've reached out to them but have had no luck. This actually looks pretty good on paper. So does the rs1.2.

The Maven RS1.2, with the (per Rokslide -- I am still seeking verification) .1 MRAD thick SHR-MIL reticle, I submit is the ultimate sleeper SPR / DMR scope -- at least on paper and based on my preferences.
