Just like how they condemn aftermarket triggers or other parts -like no one in the 21st century adds anything to their weapons system and adding quality parts installed correctly should turn any weapon into a spontaneous shooting machine

I did find it interesting that the department wanted the stock triggers replaced with flat shoe triggers. I am no pistol expert, but arent flat shoe triggers mostly a cosmetic thing?

For a work gun, my instinct would be that curved shoe would be ideal because it means your finger ends up in the same place on the trigger every time. Flat shoe triggers seem like they would be an unnecessary additional variable, but maybe I'm missing something. The only one I have is on an AR that I bought assembled that way, and I don't see the logic yet.

I just can't help but wonder how fast I could go with this exact setup but substitute the v3 brain for my human brain and fingers. I haven't even owned a hand trickler in years now but not screwing with gizmos would give me a big headstart on time.

I used a hand trickler before I figured out I could use an Ingenuity trickler and V3 brains in my Fx120 and for sure, this set up is much faster than my hand trickling. It just doesn’t auto drop, but the cost to get it to do that, whenever it actually comes out, is not worth it to me. If I was competing, maybe it would be.

haha! i'm trying to picture WTF that looks like still. OP hides in the bushes with his savage sniper rifle and his buddies pretend to kick in doors off in the distance with their PCCs?

I think we would be in combat at that point.

I might be wondering how much ammo I got left?

Well I'm not much of a Hornady fan in the first place.
138 fps variance at 67 degrees.

Question was ammo and or gun stored at a colder temperature than 67 and warming up quickly?

I have had that happen with subs and groups sucked then settled in after I got everything up to 70 ish.

@db2000

I'd be upset with Hornady for things like that and my 2.0 + grain varience on weight till you figure it's a 1% problem on a 50 - 100 yard hunting round.

Now if the pigs would hold still for half a second. Lol

This has been my setup for months now waiting on the powder dropper. Just using the $25 Lee dropper into a shot glass then through the funnel. More work? Yes. But I’m dropping 29.7 gr of Varget in 6 to 7 seconds with 97% drops within +\- .02 gr giving me match ammo with average SD in the 4’s. Hard to beat that. But life will be better with the electronic controlled powder dropper.

"They had to drive out of the area on their rims." ???

Should have hired a wetback to change it for them as I reckon theyre too important.

Nothing special here, but I call it my high mileage REM 700. That’s because the action has been around to several of the best gunsmiths in the country. LRI. SAC (2x). SPR. This journey started in 2018 as a bare action that was going to build it into a precision rifle. I spent waaaay too much money on it, but it snowballed out of control. Since then, I’ve been buying Zermatt Origin actions (have 4 now) for my precision builds. I’ve probably spent twice (or more) on this Rem 700 over what an Origin costs. Lesson learned. I won’t do that again. The barrel is a Hawk Hill Marksman contour and is chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor. I recently picked up a MPA ESR chassis (tungsten) and while it won’t replace my Matrix Pro chassis I use on my PRS rigs, it’s a nice option.

I put it in this thread intentionally because there wasn't any nudity, and it was funny. The only reason I removed it was because you asked and are the thread OP. Had there been a wardrobe malfunction and I put it here by mistake, I would be thanking someone for catching the mistake...hopefully that explains it well enough, even for window lickers in the Pit.

And I'll back up a bit, being as it was Lawless, who's a decent easy going member, I'd likely remove it for him. The others complainging Bwahahahahaha.

This is @Barneybdb @Threadcutter308 @akmike47 @The D and @Dirty D on their way to the Back Door Boys concert.

12 tons! Is most of the weight the engines? Just seems like a helo would be made light but I admit I am not a “helologist”

A lot of armor as well.... Those things were called 'flying tanks' for a reason!

Family trip headed to Mobile Alabama. Stopped in to this at Southern Museum of Flight. If you dont know the history of this helicopter take the time to look it up. Cool story about it.

That's one of the two that got swiped out of the Egyptian desert... I know a guy who was involved in that. I think I've posted the story here somewhere.


There was another one 'lifted' so to speak. But that story I don't think has gotten out.

Cheers,

Yep same with ADG.

Do you get the same velocities with N565 as with N560?

One thing that chaps my ass with N560 is that they advertise it as “temperature stable” which is an outright lie. A cursory google search shows this to be a fallacy. My controlled testing corroborates it.

30 fps in a 37°f temp change is hardly “temperature stable”. That’s a “Vihtavuori LIE” is what that is.

I've not used N560 myself, so I not sure how it compares to N565 other than what I see published where N560 had a significant higher burn rate. I'd expect higher pressure and velocity with N560 than N565???

I use N565 to push 142 SMK's and Berger 153.5's. For both of them, I get good results out of my 26" barrel with an MV of ~2,980 fps.

5.56 ?

I toyed with this for several years, had everything from 8" to 16" barreled ARs, some with pistol gas, some with no gas and side charge bolt. In the end, I wanted smallest package and quietest shot, so ended up settling on a breach-load single-shot H&R handi in 300BLK. It is single shot, the trigger sucks, but it is quiet and it is compact. And a 5-8" barrel won't be whisper quiet, I tried everything up to a 338 and a 50-cal can, hoping the volume would soak up the sound. It helps... but barrel length helps more (in a non-scientific observation-only way.) Figure out what is "need" and what is "want" and these issues become easier to solve.

"In that case, discuss with them the issue of you making the purchase based on the "BDL" description within their own media."


Their chart seems to show that the BDL style was not compatible with the CDG model.

More important is how are Caitlin 'Cool' Clark and the Fever doing against Angel 'Thug' Reese and the Chicago Dykes Skye.

She's the most dynamic sports person in a long time and seemingly a decent human being.

OOps wrong thread.
