    Dopest Web Server - Raspberry Pi Zero Server for DOPE over Wifi at the range

    Went to the range last week, Got typical hits from 600-1000. Had to shoot up all my 6.5 ammo before spinning on a new barrel. having the data on the phone helped. I'm working on getting a more minimal setup where I can skip the keyboard/mouse/display. Happy Easter - More to come.

    Dopest Web Server - Raspberry Pi Zero Server for DOPE over Wifi at the range

    I had a post about this in another thread but I wanted to start a new to not clog that one up. Link to it is here. https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/best-ballistic-calculator-currently.7220249/page-2#post-12096484 So here is my current DOPE setup for the Range. I think it's ready to...

    More progress on The Dopest Web Server. I will probably start a new thread on here to keep from spamming this one anymore. Here is a screenshot of the updated page for 300PRC ammos - 6.5CM and 6mmARC upcoming. I added some style(background range pic) to the top menu - it will eventually lead to...

    I got The Dopest Server setup and tested at home, it seems to work. It should also work on the phone when at the range over Wifi. I started in Powerpoint, then exported to .jpg and put it in HTML then FTPed it over to the tiny server. I got to do some more formatting and convert the img into...

    Faxxon Barrels in CMP garand

    So a friend recently went to the Armorer's class and build his M1 - He said that some of the criterion barrels were difficult to time without tight torque(but still within tolerance). Faxxon stepped in and started making barrels for them. I thought that was interesting.

    Great data and reading... My microcontroller adventure continues, to wait for more parts - proper voltage power supply. "that directors really just make the whole stage a clusterfuck." - this made me laugh and why I will never be a stage director.

    Most excellent review Sir - thank you for the input. I'm moving forward with it as a base. In other news... I have some Adafruit Microcontrollers on the way and may be using them as an Ubuntu/NGINX web server to host HTML pages of Dope via Wifi when I get to the range - Thuper-Nerd-Thit...

    Reviving Zombie Thread - I still miss Strelock but... Has anyone tried the new Lapua Ballistic App? I skipped the email login but was still able to create basic cartridges and rifles etc. I would think that their ballistics is close to good. The main screen on the app has option for...

    Calling all poors, what is the most poorish shooting sports thing you've ever done?

    I totally dig your cheapp-ass chassis weight work around. I will post another ridiculous example that I copied from another user on here, but first here is my janky setup for powder drop and trickle I think you guys might like to see and make fun of (FF to 0:55) Today was a snowday = watching...

    Calling all poors, what is the most poorish shooting sports thing you've ever done?

    I'm digging the cheapness of this thread. Here is a video I made a while back about being a member of the 2A poorzlife. It features a cool pistol build and shitty camerawork. AYGG offer still stands (still have the tshirts). My daily is a 90s honda with faded paint. It's easily the worst car...

    I think it was the robot dance. I tried to make them laugh and they just watched and then drove away. No blinker when entering highway either.

    Saw this and work - revivign a zombie thread. One of my life's mantras is "Almost as good for waaaaaaay cheaper" another is "old trucks and new guns" Melt 25 cent birdshot shells into 7/8 oz light load slugs Paper patch 308s to 311s to shoot in the Mosin with hand reloading kit (the kind where...

    Help me build a 6ARC rifle for a new sport - Bike-athalon

    I made a long aluminum flat front sight that went under the thread protector. It was about 2" long, I put a small divot in it to boresight it. It was way too short. On top of that the low profile rear sight was too low to get a cheekweld so so I trashed it and put a clip on Holosun for now. I...

    Help me build a 6ARC rifle for a new sport - Bike-athalon

    Cheap Lightweight upper has begun. I need a front sight that can thread on the end under the thread protector or some type of lightweight gasblock sight. I'm not really up on the old type A2 style site. I have a holosun green dot or a 16x scope I can put on it but I want some other low profile...
