If I had a dollar every time I said that over the years when I was a young man out on the hunt.

Me too, but after the hunt I would re-home them

You know.
Some people like to shoot instead of sitting around basically doing desk work for hours and hours.

My range is closed this week...

Funny you mention Hodgdon. They put the 22 arc before the 224v on their list which normally runs from low to high case capacity wise. They do consistently show the arc charges with a couple grains more then the valkyrie, to make the same velocity when shooting 55g bullets. They both shoot 55g bullets about 100fps faster than a 223 just like I said. So please, go notice that 300 yards and in and tell me if it gives you more of a "giggle."

Dead caliber. I know a guy who shoots 218 Bee.

Screen Shot 2025-03-25 at 9.41.55 AM.png

(MV is in FPS and Drop is in inches)

Across the listed loads, the 22Arc averages 76 fps faster than the 224Valk and 191 fps faster than the 223. The 224Valk averages 96 fps faster than the 223. And, as I mentioned above, the ARC and the Valk give one the option to shoot the heavies that the 223/5.56 cannot.

All that said, I'd wager that the performance gap narrows substantially when going from a 24" barrel down to a 16" barrel. All will lose velocity, but my feeling is that the 22ARC and 224Valk lose more than the 223.

Oswalds rifle was sub MOA all day. When the feds test fired it shot 3/4 “ groups. 6.5 master race.

He was a Marine, i assume he knew how to use it. You guys are trained… right??

Kennedy was shot around 12:30 Tibbit was shot about 1:00, oswald was follwed to the theater and entered just after 1:00 after, presumably killing Tibbit.

How did tibbits get on his trail, 30 min after Kennedy was killed???

so you have Oswald, a stone cold killer, trained by the marines and he had no getaway plan at all, and didnt have his revolver on him?

or maybe there was a plan that his handlers were going to usher him away, put him on a boat to Russia or Cuba, and they said no need for a pistol, that will be suspicious. So then after all the shooting starts and is done, Oswald realizes he is the patsy, no one is coming to help him get away like they promised, and the first thing he does is go back to his home/room he was renting?

come on now.

I wanted to get pissed at the video until I saw Graham in the lineup.

I would love to see him snatched and delivered to them. The karma would be lovely.

Best price on corned beef locally was just before St. Patrick's day. Maybe it will drop in a few weeks so I can get some more.

Love making pastrami and use this recipe: Making Pastrami

Then how did his skull cap end up on the trunk, behind him last time I saw the film?

Next yote I shoot with my 6.5, I’ll try to head shoot it inside a 100 yards and I’ll use som AAC fmj and I’ll see if the skull cap flys off and I’ll report back

use 221 Fireball with a mercury filled core. that will be like exactly what hit Kennedy.

While at the same time, I have heard many claim Johnson also pushed not to sign the agreement. One hell of a mess.

It was on record with several sources at the time that he was literally the one that delivered the "recommendation" to avoid a cease-fire. He was a figurehead/puppet for the elite that seem to run the fucking show on the world stage. Jeff Sachs and a couple others documented his involvement with the process in great detail.

Personally, the more I reload, the more I come to the conclusion that (at least for modern high quality bullets, brass, etc.,) many of the things people obsess over in reloading don't actually matter/do anything.
In my experience, your bullet, primer, powder combination has the biggest impact on group size. The right primer is mainly important for velocity consistency. Everything else (e.g. seating depth, primer pocket uniforming, weight sorting brass, volume sorting brass, etc.,) is basically a waste of time, in my experience. That said, maybe some of these things are important for certain bullets types or certain brass. I personally haven't seen it.

Primers, you tune with the powder and bullet combo. Seating depth will have a huge influence in accuracy. You can see it as you change the seating depths. But I agree with the other stuff like sorting brass, bullets ect, one can probably not shoot the difference. But for sure, seating depths you can.

Zeiss LRP S5 5-25x56 MRAD in great shape up for grabs. Will come with the factory box, sunshade, and paperwork.

I also have a set of Hawkins Heavy Tac 34MM or Zeiss 34MM Rings that can go with it for an additional fee as well if needed.

Damn $300 titanium handled hammer
cool!

I have a lot of "things" for work; but the ones I have to wear on my body all day, are what takes a toll in the end. Both because they're used all day every day, and the toll they take on my body lugging the weight.

I upgraded to a Badger tool belt system, and I will never go back. The weight, durability, and ergonomics have been a game changer. But I'm still reluctant to lose my trusty Estwing 20oz. A supervisor for a company I do work for, has the Martinez and I was able to put time on it. For me, it handles better than a Stiletto (which i can get locally), unless we're talking wood handles. I just don't buy wood handled hammers for use in ME (IYKYK). The weight reduction and ease of use (ergonomics) are what's going to help.

Plus Ti lasts for friggin ever, and I can get it in neat colors.

Book suppository? That’s GOTTA be some S tier Freudian slip…

on purpose for laughs but also as a reference to that building being bullshit and that there was likely a other shooter in the DalTex building next to it

And this is why I prefer speaking to people over the phone to try to educate people into making the best decision for their purpose. The forum can only do so much because a lot of people are missing details that they might not even realize that’s why I’m on the phone all day long and have a 2000 text messages in my phone.
A 10 minute call can equal dozens of posts IMO

Right now it is topic of the month but it is only one small part of the bigger picture.

I did, its actually 18" and weighs 38.5 oz on my scale. The can is a Thunderbeast Ultra 7.

I think its great hunting profile. To compare, I took off an unfluted 18" Prefered Barrel Blanks #2 Sporter in 6.5 CM that weighed in at 46.4 oz. So in the barrel swap I saved about 8 oz for the same length barrel in a smaller caliber.

I thought that looked a little short for a 20”, I’m not sure where I got the idea it was that long. That barrel hammers. I have a 20” 300WSM of the same profile and flutes showing up this week for my short action Origin. I have high hopes for it. What stock is that? I have Peak 44 Bastion for mine, although I’ll likely put it in my weighted KRG-b for breaking and load development. Why bench a 8# gun when you can make it a 12# gun for testing.

No one has yet mentioned - Edward Epstine . His role in being one of Kennedy’s first real surrogates in the press, his Harvard professorship, his dozen of so books on Kennedy, his connection to Jeffery Epstine and his possible involvement with the Mossad .
I’m not seeing a lot of mention of the mafia - except Jewish mobster Jacob Rubinstein , no mention of “Cuban assassins” and its now very obvious that the USSR was telling anyone who would listen about Oswald’s “plan” . Ambassadors , state department , ICE and boarder patrol officials .
If various government agencies knew as early as June/ August of 1963 and the government plan still went on without a hitch- well then it was more then a conspiracy it was a coup by the military industrial complex.

O and no one has mentioned old daddy Bush who claimed for the rest of his life he couldn’t remember where he was the day Kennedy was killed - except now we know as many have long speculated that he was in deed and fact in Dallas . Funny that .

Files mentioned that there were many people there in the plaza that day to watch. and there were. GHWB was there
