    Indeed it is a Bluestreak! Not out of the woods yet with this old girl and she developed some serious issues the day after I posted this range report. I'm working on it.....she hits with authority that's for sure!

    Distance is 23 yards. Offhand needs some serious work.....I chrony'd it the other day and it is running rather anemic. 485 FPS was the best it would do, but that was only a few shots for a test. New seals and a solder on the barrel that had separated. I put the peep sight on years ago as the...

    Here's a new one for me personally. Pure luck I spotted this moving things around today. Brand new bag purchase back in Jan. It's a conspiracy I tell ya.....

    What did you do in the reloading room today?

    What are the chances I managed to spot this fella as I was pulling this bag out to look for other pills? Empty as my head. Brand new bag, I just gotta remember where I bought them...I reckon reloading should never be taken lightly...see what I did there..? ;)

    We called it "kill the man" and would use some sort of area as the end zone. If you made it to the end zone, you could take a 30 second break, turn around and did your best to make to the other end. This would go on for hours until enough kids finally showed up/joined in so we could then make...

    are we talking about all the ammo seized yet?

    Lots of ammo. I suppose so. The morons who will be using it and their ability, that is another question. Be kinda hard to miss 2 or 3 Ma Deuce's rolling about.....point being if people grow a spine and spot this nonsense cruising down their street it would end quickly for the...

    Never thought I'd see the day when this would be cheaper than IMR blah, blah, blah, blah, Varget, or Reloader blah, blah.....anywho....tried some of this stuff years ago with some Berger 73 grn. pills in my service rifle. Holy guacamole it shot like a laser beam! I reckon I'll have to revisit...

    Home dog euthanasia

    OP states that the capability is present for the Vet to come to the residence. I had this done for my Cowbell, and then a few years later my daughter did the same for her cat. First shot was a strong sedative, few minutes later a final injection. If the dog/cat means that much, and they...

    PVA Solus .223 Wylde Barreled Action (Barrel question)

    All goon squad members here know that would be the .223 Wylde, second only to the venerable .308 😆 I'll keep my eye on things and thanks for the update! All the best to PVA in 2025!

    PVA Solus .223 Wylde Barreled Action (Barrel question)

    What a bummer. I had wanted to pick up the PVA parts based on member testimony and coupled with the fact they have a member here who is always ready to chime in when asked. I reckon those prices and quality would be hard to beat. Any suggestions where I may find something comparable?

    PVA Solus .223 Wylde Barreled Action (Barrel question)

    Well nuts! I went to scoop up a .223 Wylde B/A last night, finally got my financial folder in order...and they are sold out! May just go back to the Tikka varmint, but really wanted to slowly build this myself and maybe learn something along the way. Deep thoughts from my shallow service rifle...

    Coach Gun Advice (12 Gauge)

    Holy guacamole! I forgot all about this thread but I did scoop up a CZ. Came in a fancy case with fancy velvet bags.....I really like the stock and the case hardening style. Adds some character. Shoots really well and I have bought gobs of 12 GA. ammo since. A slight right hand cast to the...

    PVA Solus .223 Wylde Barreled Action (Barrel question)

    So while I originally was ready to move with a Tikka, (thanks again to all who offered advice) I stumbled across this deal yesterday. I planned on dropping it into a KRG and finding a good scope. It's going to be a little over my budget but it will slowly come together. I read about the...

    Maggie’s What are you drinking right now!?

    A few bottles I have worked on in the past few weeks. Been out in the Cleveland area training for a new position/department for a bit and stumbled across the Heaven Hill (new to me) along with the small bottles which will be great gifts for some friends. I spotted a bottle of Angel's Envy...
