Maggie’s Man's Best Friend Thread

So sorry for your loss.
I appreciate your sentiment, but it wasn't a loss. It was, Kye was a blessing. No person deserves the loyalty and love a dog like this provides. Took to my daughter day 1. Protected her and allowed her to use him for joy, obviously, that ls a 5 year old riding a dog like a horse. Taught my adopted son that love is real after being abandoned by sperm donor. It was a gift that we were blessed by him for 10 years. Still Fuck Cancer.

Edit: somehow got the years he was alive wrong. Brains still a bit foggy.

Savage Impulse 1 year update

Hey!

What do you think about the Jard at this point?
I've been looking for a replacement trigger to my Impulse mountain hunter and from what I understand, this is the option. Is it worth the money?

/L
The Jard is a beautiful trigger.
Had to adjust the safety lever tension otherwise it was drop in.
You're going to have to be the judge if it's worth it or not.

I got the JARD trigger, and it breaks at about 14 ounces. Great trigger.

Tikka Bedding Advice

I would either let it ride or seeing now that there’s not full coverage of bedding on top of the lug actually chip that off of the top of the lug and redo only that. So after cleaning it all up, removed the bedding on top of the recoil lug, prep it, then only add bedding compound on there and torque it all back down. You should then have a fully bedded lug with the height of the torqued stock on your existing bedding.

Review: ZCO 840 versus March 5-42x PRS Edition

I don’t mean adjusting mag range without adjusting parallax, just asking how forgiving it is at different mag ranges. We recently had a stage with 12 targets at 12 distances with a magazine change. You could dial target 1 but had to hold for target 1A ,dial 2 hold 2A , and so on through target 6A. It was just a single position from a roof top but I timed out on target 6 so I got 10 out of 12. I lost all my time on my set up and was sliding on the roof probably lost 15 to 20 seconds, as I got my sight picture on fuzzy target 11 timer went off.
Gotcha. I can’t really answer. It seems the same as my other high end optics.

I just started competing in February this year, and also used to time out a lot but it had nothing to do with equipment. My first optic was a sub 700 scope FWIW. Until I got to a certain point, it was never the gears fault. To your point, there was a need to focus on building a good position and forget about the clock..

What’s helped me is including rifle handling and position building into my HIIT programs. Come off at 140-150 BPM and run thru a mock stage while deliberately slowing myself down because of the elevated heart rate. Then back to whatever the HIIT cycle calls for. Sounds lame, but it’s helping me.
