Random copper 1/2-4/3 down the barrel

Sitting in a minichassis doesn't eliminate the chances of a banana shaped action. A chassis or bedding block has always been how I found out an action didn't quite lay straight. It's the first place I go if a rifle is shooting as you described.
I’ve had the same action in the PRS1 for years without any issue, plus I hope a TL3 isn’t banana shaped after a few years of use

I blew up my rifle!

I use a paper clip and I cut as sharp of a point with wire cutters that i can so when i scrape it inside the cases in hope to catch the case head separation. I also look down into all the cases once there is powder in them and check to see if they all look like they are at the same level. I use a single stage press, which means I am a lot slower then most. It sure is a scary situation with those parts blowing up, for sure.

PRS Talk New shooter timing out a lot

I've been to two matches and I have a big issue with time. I just ordered an Area 419 RCX which should hopefully cut down on the amount of bag handling I have to do.

That said, should I be focusing on moving through a stage faster, or should I focus on trying to get as many hits instead of rushing?
What's your biggest issue with time? Finding the target? Not knowing the course of fire? Dialing your dope? Figure out where you are loosing time and work on that.

Stinkin' Light Bulbs

Hate to say it, but the long-term fix is going to be replacing the actual light fixtures with something (or a system) that has integral voltage regulators. LEDs are great, but more sensitive to the power fluctuations we see in our average power feed coming in from the city, and those bulbs just aren’t made to handle that wide swing.

When we did our site (before I retired a second time) we tried the bulbs in 1/2 the warehouse, but had the same issues. In tne end, we wound up doing a complete system swap and wiring upgrade; including work to the main feeds into the facility.

Do y’all have your own power plant?

338 Lapua Magnum

You haven’t mentioned which rifle this Is in?
I have my suspicions especially when you mention that you have been fighting it for 15 years but I’ll wait for your reply.

I’ve only shot Lapua brass in my Savage 110BA without issue.
It is in a Desert tech. Both in an original and an A1. 2 different barrels. Apparently chamber is too tight.

Most likely going to have a custom die made or buy the roll sizer. Seems to be only fixes.

Firearms LWRC 6 ARC and 224 Valkyrie

I have 2 LWRC rifles for sale.

1) $2,250 - LWRC 6 ARC with 224 valkyrie barrel. Started off life as a factory LWRC .224 Valkyrie rifle base on the Six8 receiver size. I swapped the barrel and bolt for a Craddock Precision 18" 6mm ARC barrel. Rifle +1 gas length and a SLR adjustable gas block. will come with extra 6 ARC bolt, factory 224 Valkyrie barrel and volt and gas block, and 4 Six8/224 Magpul mags. No muzzle device. Have not shot it.

2) $1700 - LWRC 224 Valkyrie rifle with short 11" rail. My plan was to build a 12.5"-14.5" 6 ARC rifle, so I traded the factory 14.5" rail for the shorter one. Decided to go with something else. I purchased this gun used and has approx 80-100 rounds in it. I have never shot it since I got it recently. Will come with 3 LWRC Six8 Magpul mags.

Maggie’s Funny & awesome pics, vids and memes thread (work safe, no nudity)

Out of context it sounds like the same thing but in context Ecclesiastes 1:9 has a different meaning than the intent of the Twain quote.

Twain is talking about nothing being new and everything "new" is just something old recycled or reconfigured, not meaningless.

The teacher in Ecclesiastes is elaborating on the idea that everything is meaningless.
I dont see that much difference in the end result, but its not worth arguing over.
