None of the Res in AZ has good fireworks, so fire water is used more for getting in to hike havasupai falls without a permit.

Isn’t funny that making a mag (even an extended aftermarket one) is apparently harder than making the damn action lol

I can see why the Hornet based cartridges would be a tougher one to get to feed but one based off 221FB should be easy to do, especially the AI version since it's almost a straight case.

If they would design the action to take a chamber bevel at the end of the barrel that would solve a lot of the feeding issues because if the presentation is slightly off the case will still go in.
My friend had his old Weatherby converted to 300PRC and it wouldn't feed well so he took it back to have the GS bevel that edge on the chamber. Problem totally solved.

I understand about the ammo, and I agree that quality produces quality. I’m shooting .22LR so hand loading isn’t really an option, but I do plan to test and see what shoots best for whatever I buy. 22ammo doesn’t hurt the wallet quite like other calibers so I’ll play around and shoot what’s best. But, will the match chamber be “worth it”?

I've always agreed with that sentiment.
Coincidentally my son just purchased that rifle to use for Rimfire PRS, but no mods like a barrel upgrade can be done to keep it in Production (IIRC that's the name) class. He told me he was finding out what the rifle liked and a lower-cost ammo that wasn't match grade (I think he said Aguila) printed best at target. Regardless of ammo consistency, every barrel/rifle can exhibit its unique preferences for a certain load/bullet weight due to differences in harmonics.

You can go cheap and get one of these and drill the port hole to the size you desire.

Hunted in Rifle in 91&92. Nice area

He's an idiot. And now about 18,000 people who viewed that video also believe the nonsense he just spewed about how scopes work.

I am in a very good and very unusual financial situation but my friends are all struggling with virtually no hope of finding a house. It's bad.

So I follow the @Frank Green “slow” method. Clean after (almost) every shoot with Hoppes, and let it sit overnight (or longer). I use what jag he uses…Parker Hale type (or a VFG pellet, which is the same sort of thing).

I still get carbon rings that develop around 300-500 rounds in Muller barrels from Bugholes or factory barrels. Then I use Frank’s JB blue paste (or 40x) method in the throat to get rid of the ring, and sometimes on the bore depending on how it looks.

I shoot factory ammo, mainly Hornady because that’s the fastest stuff for the calibers I shoot the most (22-250 & 204). I’m 100% suppressed.

Are you saying you never ever get a carbon ring just because you clean after each shoot?

Click to expand...

Yes but I use a brush.

More 22lr down range than I can remember over the years. Never had a carbon ring problem.

Semi auto, voodoo, 40x couple of Annie’s etc

Maybe the brush is my magic ticket

Ya know dude.....You could just keep quiet, try to act normal best you can(can't say the same for your wife though) and go on about your business?

If your pieces are secured in your vehicle or trailer, who has to know what your private property consists of?

My vote is to remain a "Silent Professional" as the contents of your private property are of no use to anyone but you and your wife. I'd just keep my mouth shut & drive on thru peacefully.

YMMV.

Because, generally, if you have a CCW and get stopped, the cop knows right away. Not all states are reciprocal, so you need to know the laws of the state your going through. Most SW states are GTG but its smart to know. This might help.

It does feel that way sometimes. Had a IOR go down during a match, and a March 5-42 that had poor IQ at 42x. Had a Bushnell 8-32 AO with lash go back, a Bushnell 6-18 quit, a USO 3.2-17 with just about the worst IQ that I've seen, a S&B 3-20 which had to be sent back twice, and I'm sure more I've forgotten about.

The amount of money spent doesn't exactly correlate to if the scope is super duper or not.

Seems PRS shooters have become super efficient at dialing fast and refining economy of motion! I would have, well did, time out on occasion if I dialed the whole stage.

As it was back then I'd hold over much of the time unless it was a fixed distance. I never won a bigger match but I got 2nd a few times. I wish I could revisit the whole thing nowadays and learn that level of efficiency.

Never really had much problems with the H59 reticle as far as obscuring but I live in AZ so saw the dust kick up pretty easily. That changed when my eyes got worse and it became harder to locate misses way out there.

The truth is I enjoyed matches like the AZPRC and the Sporting Rifle matches in Raton a lot more than PRS types. Just me and the wind via prone off bipod and bag.

The truth gets a lot of decent people fired and some killed these days .

The left hates choking on the truth which I feel is odd since they should be used to it choking on each other all the time.

I bought one of their bolt action uppers with a 16" CHF 556 1:7 barrel on it. I have shot a bunch of 3/4" 5 shot groups with it with 52gr handloads, it generally has done 1" or less. We mostly use it for shooting pdogs from the truck. It's also pretty fun to shoot and my son really likes it.


I bought a second one and put a 9" 300blk Faxon barrel on it and it is even more fun with a suppressor.

I feel like BCA's are good enough for having fun, hunting, and tinkering with. Cheap guns have there place.

I got one of these in 1/2-36 to 5/8-24 for my 9mm AR and just Rocksett it on and now it’s a 5/8-24 for my Xeno brake.

Since that was 1963, I say yes to the bush.

Bump. To any HK collector's I will sell parts separately, first part I'm willing to sell is the PSG1 trigger pack/grip for 2600 shipped.

Another real issue is the size of houses now, and what people are willing to accept. When I was a kid, most folks seemed to live in homes with 1 or 2 bathrooms, and seemed to be around 900-1500 square feet. New construction neighborhood down the road is currently selling 4/3 and 5/4 houses, 3500-4200 square feet.

I am at the very end of the Boomer years. Our (me, my wife, and my mom) current house is just under 1100 square feet, 2 bed, 1.5 bath, with an attached 28x28 garage. Most folks, regardless of the generation, would not choose this size place, but it works fine for us. Possibly because I designed it myself, and there is not a single square foot of wasted space. I even put the pantry in the stairwell.

As a Hindu, Deersniper has been reincarnated many times by now and is probably a cow in @diggler1833 's field and will be sent to the butcher soon to become steaks.

You never know where he may be and you won't recognize him when you see him.

This is kind of far out there, but how far really? I'm not trying to turn this into a conspiracy theory thread, but I do belive big pharma is poisoning the public as a whole. To a degree, I think it may even have roots in mk ultra.
