That’s really good for a 6.5 Looks like your just getting carbon to which is all a good barrel should have. My 260 starts to open up just a bit after 300+.

Brux for me. I walked in the shop to fill out the order form, handed the owner cash, and told them no rush at all. The action took 9 months to get and I brought it to them to spin it on. Seems to me that’s the recipe.
Last time I was at Brux, Bob sebold was just getting back from the Berger SWN and I walked out with 3 barrels! Easiest cleaning barrels I’ve ever shot are rock creek though
A rare Thursday night at the hockey fights. We’re in second place in our division.
You got a link to a pheromone or cologne for us?
First custom barrel and haven’t spent much time with it but so far....Krieger seems to be good stuff. The cleaning thing is something I hope to enjoy as well?
If it isnt food or something you can store on the shelf, do you really want it fallowing you home if all it likes is money?.......
I know @1J04 ‘s kinda woman can sit on the shelf for a while.......
I will take ammo and guns following me home all day.
5k rds greeted me on the doorstep when I just got home. Happy old man I am.

Next time your in let me know. I’ll buy you a beer or two.
Good equipment/kit is worth the extra coin. The above fore mentioned barrels along with a few others allow you to shoot more and clean less. I keep detailed logs on each system. When multiple impacts on the same target under the same condition start to open just a bit, I’ll check the “last cleaned bore” count and right as rain, it’s due. Makes life easier.

Last night my friend Christine was editing some of the pictures from her photo shoot at our place last weekend.
She sent me a handful of them. I can't wait to see the rest!
Brittney's birthday was Monday, and little Noah will be turning 1 on the 21st of this month.
Should be a great party!

Finally a break in the weather. Bright clear skies and temp ABOVE zero for the first time in several days. Caught up with my chores so bounced around to all my targets with the 260.

Gonna play some poker today. Might be my only supplemental income in a few months. Disability is looking like a real possibility very soon.

Easy to mentally go down that road amigo and perfectly normal to do it. just remember to come out the other side swinging come what may? Woke up feeling like somebody used an Hitachi with a 3” framer at L5-S1 but you can bet your ass the balance of the reloading for that 6.5-284 is getting done today cuz I’m confirming a load tomorrow? Your brothers are here for ya, so chin up dude and the devil be damned?
Dang Chikn. That plain stinks.
I keep asking for you some good relief and better answers. Sometimes it takes persistence and a little time.

Hi,
@armorpl8chikn
I will have to go back and search your post to see exactly what you are dealing with BUT that being said........
Do NOT let it get you down in mentally even if for now it is seemingly controlling you physically.
Sometimes things are done to our bodies that will always limit, hurt, etc us physically but never let that situation have control of your mental health!!! The physical situation should never be granted that much power over us.
My brother had his femur bone completely blown out the back of his leg and had to look at it while rescue cut him from the boat. I remember him calling me while I was OCONUS and him texting me a picture of his bone while he was saying his final goodbye. Long story short..it took him about 3 years before he was able to free his mind (with help from proper medicine) from that new life long physical injury.
Our bodies are meant to be driven by our mind, not our mind driven by our bodies.
IF you ever need someone to just listen....contact me!!

I'm still waiting on a mylegram, they put me off till February because of some kind of hospital merger. Sure been a lot of that merger mess going on since 2016......I wonder why?
Talked to a friend that works in the industry. He seems to think they are looking for spinal fluid leak.
I guess my doctor's office didnt think I needed to know much.
On a lighter note I doubled through playing 1-2NL before the tourney started.
I busted out of tourney and waiting for another spot at 1-2 table. I'm having a good day with my headaches. It's there but just a dull pain. I'll play till it gets worse.

Absolutely ?! I believe I would fancy the 29. I’ll give it more thought, but for now, put us in for the 29 in that paint scheme, and if I change my mind, I’ll let you know. Do they accept VISA?Hi,

In Des Moines for the weekend watching my son in an AAU basketball tournament. Went out for dinner then on to a Buccaneers game to enjoy MY kind of winter sport. Saturday night hockey fights for Hulka...
I don’t have a picture of it but I cannot see the neighbors house, 80 yards away. TNICHOLS showed the temps in our area the last few days. Yesterday was POSITIVE 42*F and all of the moisture has turned eastern Iowa into a fog bank!
*Officially Got All My Crap Outta The Old Place and Over to The New Place*
It's over, and it's just beginning. Been a SumBiotch I'll tell ya that. So got done for the day with my goal and ran over to help a buddy that helped me move. It all works out in the end don't it? Yet another Pole Building going up Native Boy Style. You can pick apart whatever ya like, the fact of the matter is "so what", it's getting done. My biggest peeve is doing as much as possible on the ground as you can, then go up, but no, let's do it the hard way again...........

Got done screwing around with these loons then off to feed the Steaks. The building we're almost done with behind the Cows has not one store bought board in it. Every piece was milled from trees off the property. Fir, Cedar, and Alder. The loft has an extended shooting platform we talked our friend into needing.

You sure do have enough to keep you busy!
23 yrs Brother. 23 cluttered years. Longest I've ever been in one spot by far. Moved all over the damn place as a kid, then the 10 yrs in the Nav all over the place, then stayed in Tokyo after I got out and worked there for 3 more years, then Manila working for 3 years, then back to the States in 96 till now. Looking forward to enjoying my piece of the Pie for once as a late bloomer.
No pics.
Yestersday I helped my middle brother move. He hadnt packed.......???
Finished the day late, ate some delicious carnitas burritos smothered with some pork green chile washed down with a couple Big Thompson IPAs. Good brew.
Today fixing the ladder for my kids bunk bed. She fell asleep in the truck and I broke it carrying her up it to bed. Not built for an old fat guy.....
Also making some pieces to repair and 100+ yr old oak secretary desk I was given. Very beautiful quarter sawn, great history behind it. Just a little work now and will need to be working on some new front legs at some point. They have been damaged over the years from moving and cobbled together repairs by folks who didnt really know how. I used to completely tear down, rebuild, and refinish antique oak rocking chairs with my dad so have a little knowledge. Its a relaxing activity for me and I think having old well made stuff is worth to work to repair right.

Nice work Jimmy. Thats a lot of years.
Glad your back eased up. The motrin and beer plan is a good cure-all. Whiskey if its real bad..... ?
Im probably going to knock off the real work and load some .38s this afternoon. Then drink beer and size brass.

Congrats Jimmy !
Thank you my friend !!! It feels great, and we're just getting going.
Back never stood a chance. I got gooned up enough to the point I was Superman for about 6 hrs.
Tooned as Tooned can be...........
Congrats on the move victory @1J04
Always good to get moving done.
Went to a public range today.
A local 22lr/fly shoot.
Missed the league and was there with the "highpoint" bunch.
Should've grabbed some pics, haven't seen that many "zombie" targets in one place before.
They are experts at testing your focus.
Maybe I can see the need for a plate carrier now at the range...

Hear hear! Neeve pain caint stand up t likker, I permiss.
My spirnerl headake is bout big ers a grand of rice bout now.
Damn, that's a lot of memories in one place. You always have those "nostalgia" areas in a house. Like remembering doing something pivotal in a certain room or outside.
A new place is even more exciting as your senses are going to be receptive. Not going to get all deep - it's just a fun adventure.
Congrats!
Haven't been to a public range willingly since October of 2016. I used to like to help people at those, but it was just an endless stream of BS on topics I had already covered with them. That and it's a tad too "tacticool snipery". People expect the rifle to make them better at everything in the book.
You also have these guys too...
The wife is going to be royally pissed after I've checked out and finds how many rounds of pistol reloading components "someone" is going to have to "move" after I'm gone.............. (Lead appreciates more than gold.....just you wait and see what happens in the next two to four years.....)

Kudos on the move. Enjoy the new digs! Lot of work, but looks like your having fun!
