Hey that break open revolver looks unsafe, send it to me for proper disposal.
That's my work bench gun, it's an old 38s&w lemon squeezer. She functions flawlessly, and I paid a whole $35 for it.
I just FELT myself turn green form jealousy!

My mail call was yesterday, new MDT Ckye pod to try out and see if I want to switch from my atlas to those.
I'm interested in those as well, I'm running and evolution bipod(I know, I know) at the moment. How are you like it so far?
Preliminary thoughts so far just dicking around with it at the house, it’s way nice, I see a lot of use for it in matches with the large amount of cant (170degrees worth) and the extremely wide foot print.
Only slight gripe that I have is one leg has some play in it compared to the other leg and is way easier to deploy. Is it going to end the world? Nah. But for 550 bucks, they should either both have the same amount of play, or none at all. The play goes away on the one leg when you load up the bipod tho.
Another big thing is how easy it is to extend the legs. I’m used to the Atlas bipods where they lock and you have to unlock them to extend them. The Ckye pod you just pull the legs down and boom, extended. It’ll take some time to get used to it but it is a nice feature forsure. Over all I give it a 8/10 so far. Will see how it performs further tomorrow at the range.
I'll play! I just got a bravo chassis, spigot, mags, nf pic rail, pug ear bag, area 419 arca clamp and a tbac! Next is some better glass, having some focusing probs. I have one crappy pic let me try to post....
Monday- received a new guide rod for my XDm 10mm that allows the use of 1911 recoil springs. I have a 26# spring waiting for the pistol to get back from having a custom holster made. Also got a new grip tape for my Canik Tp9sfx.
Today- received 4000 9mm bullets, 2000 Winchester small pistol primers and 100 pieces of Winchester 10mm brass.
Tomorrow- should be receiving 4#s of Blue Dot and 200 pieces of Starline 10mm brass.
Saturday- scheduled to receive new chamber flags for my 3 gun rifle and shotgun. Also should be receiving a magazine extension for my shotgun.

Just got a ZP5 MR4 in from the PX last Saturday and the MPA BA mount last night. First impressions of the mount are different then I expected but everything seems solid.
Seems like this build has been never ending mail call. I dont mind it!

I'm a big fan of the Bushnell ET scopes. Good choices.
One of those is probably gonna be next for me for my competition gas gun. Let me know which you like better, I hear they’re both excellent but I like first hand opinions.

Nice, we'll have pretty similar setups when all is said and done. I bought the bravo as a stand in till I found what I liked but it's really grown on me. I may go for the W3 next!
I almost went with that same helical diamond bolt knob but changed to competition at the last minute haha. What are the details on your barrel? Rifle looks good and I like the paint job.
I liked my Bravo so much on my .308 I decided to go for the next level up for this one. These PX deals are really great to keep costs down and if I don't like the gear I could sell for similar, although I am really liking everything so far.
Yeah I like the helical at first it was a little sharp but as my hands got tougher in the summer I've found it to be good. Similar to the turrets on the ZP5...
Mines a 224 valkyrie, 26" 1/7 from keystone accuracy. I'm also setup for 6.5cm but the barrel is kinda a week link there.

I'll be picking up a 6GT barrel from my smith next week along with 300 pieces of brass.
Just need dies and bullets now.
I just received a Warhorse Commanche with ARCA clamp that I've been playing with.
No pics of anything yet, though.

Seekins havak bravo showed up on a Monday, didn’t pick up until Friday. Need to order new brass and some 144 Berger’s.
I picked up the Colorado Tripod Company mini ball head and vortex arm for my binos, should be pretty decent for the range. Im very impressed with the Sig Kilo3000 so far.

Not Monday but close enough for me. Got two steamy piles delivered today. First is a Bushnell SMRS II Pro 1-6.5, this guy will compete against a new Sig Tango6T 1-6 for my undying love, and a home on the Scar 16. The second is my barrel that came today from the guy who turned it for me. Bartlein heavy service contour(1:8) turned to 18 inches, 5/8x24 muzzle threads, WOA comp barrel extension. Headspaced to a Seekins bolt and carrier group.

Need to order this my self.
I got my 6.5 creedmoor brass in today.
It’s once fired prime brass off a hide member.
Impulse buy, and a new barrel and brake.
If those Berger’s perform as good as the 190LRHT you’ll love them.
I haven't seen much info on them, especially in .300 PRC since they are newer but I've got high hopes. Gonna have to be searching for powder as well.
Once I shoot you all my 208 eldm bullets, I am switching to the 208LRHT Berger’s. So I am interested to see what results you have.
Zero stop shims from Tim on the hide. Krg minimalist spigot mount and bad rider.

let us know how you like the spigot! its on my list but I'm not sure how high up...
I'd prefer to not be shot
I'll be putting updates in the .300PRC thread on my results when I get there. I've got 300 of the old 208gr A-max to burn through however I think they will likely get used for some light fireforming / barrel speed up loads. I expect most of them to get demoted to .300BLK use. My biggest hurdle I see is finding H1000 or RL26.

I don’t blame ya. H1k has been a bitch to find but check powder valley. I got 8 pounds from there not too long ago.
Lower showed up today.
Got my angry joe ar14 lower.

Well once again not Monday. I need to have a talk with the delivery person. The tango6t showed up but just glancing through it, the glass doesn’t seem as crisp and the smrs ii. The c1 mount I like way better than the adm just by holding, will see how it mounts up. Annnd a 1st gen Colt SAA just because I’ve always wanted one
