Places You've Worked But Are Now Shut Down

I'll start this off with Kopper's. I worked in the Large Casting Foundry right out of high school. The dirties, hottest job on the face of the earth. Once the molds were poured on the daylight shift, we came in and emptied the molds and set the casting on rail car. The casting were so hot, a few of the guys would cook their lunch on them. The casting sand got everywhere. Every part of your body would be covered in it. A mask was mandatory or you'd be dead within the week. I left there as soon as I could and went to work for Amtrak. Best move I could have made.

Koppers shut down that facility and moved everything to Erie PA where that foundry shut down, I've been told. I don't know if they are still in business but all I can say is good riddance.

SOLD Schmidt & Bender 3-12x50

The scope came with an AI AW, like new as well as the rifle, CW, MRAD, P4FL reticle (I assume), AI turrets, no scratches on the lenses.
AI mount and caps are included.
A cool collectible scope, especially, if you have AW / AWSM rifles.
$1860 shipped.

Big scratch in barrel?

I have a proof carbon barrel in 6GT and it started shooting worse than it usually does. I figured it was dirty, which it was, so I started with my normal barrel cleaning routine which consists of Patch-Out, Accelerator and nylon brushes. I use a quality cleaning rod and bore guide as well.

After cleaning, I go in with a bore scope just to see what things look like and I noticed a pretty big scratch from the freebore all the way about 2/3 down the barrel I have never seen before. It stays on the same groove of rifling the whole way.

Obviously only way to tell if affects shooting is to shoot it after cleaning, but curious as to what may have caused it.

Only thing I can think of is maybe a stainless bead from wet tumbling?

I'm really hoping this isn't what is causing this barrel to shoot poorly....

AR tuning gurus….need your help.

I own an LMT CQB.

It came with the standard 16 inch or so carbine barrel.

I came across a sweet 20 inch stainless steel barrel in the PX and bought it. I have probably fired 1000 rounds through it. Shoots great.

Any way, last night while cleaning the rifle I note a ghost imprint of the back of the gas key on the top of my lower receiver at the buffer tube.

May have been there since I fired my first round on the rifle.

I don’t like it.

Last thing I want to do is beat my lower or shear off the gas key.

Gas block on the twenty inch barrel is slightly forward of the 16 inch barrel gas block by maybe an inch, just enough to have it sit past the end of the quad rail. The sixteen incher is in the quad rail IIRC.

I’m thinking the extra gas going through the tube before the bullet exits the barrel is causing this.

Liking the twenty inch barrel but not liking the impact on the lower receiver.

Perhaps a heavier buffer or spring but What might do is cut the twenty to 18 inches which is what I really wanted for a barrel….hmmmm.

Clue me in on why GDI sucks.

Hey all,
So it is nearly new car time and I have been pondering a new-ish Subie Crosstrek (The 6MT goes away for 2024 and still on the fence about the CVT tho the MPG is impressive and I have a 600 mile a week communte). Anyways, it ticks the boxes. More room inside that a 4runner, AWD, good MPG, timing chain instead of a belt, and not boosted BUT they run GDI and I see ere'body saying GDI sucks. Honest question here... Why does it suck? A little reading suggests that the right oil (something with a low brix number (?) aka less volitiles) and a seperator inline in the PCV system might keep the gunk in the intake to a minimum so what an I missing? TIA.

Edited to add. I am not a trade in every three years guy. I keep my rides until the wheels fall off. Current rig is 12 years old, 380K on the clock, and still gets 32MPG. Why yes, it is a Toyota.

Wyoming spring bear hunt bullet choices

The bear pit seems like the right spot for this.

Headed out to Wyoming for the May 15th spring bear opener. I've got a few questions:

1. I know there is a mountain of snow up there right now. Do you Wyoming folks think that enough of it will thaw in time to hunt them that first week?

2. 300 Wsm, 20" 1-10 barrel. Talk to me about what ranges I can reasonably expect to have opportunities at. I shoot prs and shoot regularly out to 1,200y, but I've been out that way and I know that wind is the real issue, so what is considered reasonable out there? I an asking because I have a decent selection of bullets available, and have time to get something else if I need to, so before I start loading ammo for this trip, look at the picture of what I already have please and let me know what you would do. Thanks fellas.

Scratched chamber

Hi Everyone
I ran the borescope through the barrel and found out the chamber area has some scratches and raised metal marks
Tried to chamber a virgin brass and closed the bolt, extracted brass has the exact same marks

I look at the bag of first fired rounds that I saw they have the similar marks so it can’t be my mistake during cleaning and etc…


This is a custom rifle with carbon fiber proof barrel and has about 150 rounds down the tube.
I am very disappointed since it’s made by one if the best custom rifle builders in nation!
-should I worry about these scratches and are they going to affect the accuracy and consistency in load development?
How about case lifespan?

- solution to get rid of them?

- do I have to solve this issue before continuing load development?

Property trust for the poors

See my email exchange with a lawyer below. My question for you guys: in what ways is he right, and related, in what ways am I looking at this wrong?

A little more context: never worked with this lawyer before, he was casually recommended to me by my boss. I'm in my 30s, a poors, never bought property before. Good head on my shoulders, but admittedly not savvy about real estate or finance. Thanks for reading

###

Dave,
Mike gave me your contact, said you might be able to point me in the right direction.
I am buying some land and am considering putting it in a trust. After doing a little reading, these are some thing I think I am looking for:

-Asset protection
-Privacy
-Self-settled
-Irrevocable trust

I'm on a budget, don't know if anything like this can be done for around $2000.
Thanks,
tea&jam

tea&jam

Thanks for your email. Preliminarily, my rate is $375 an hour. And as part of that, I would need to have an exploratory meeting with you to determine your reasoning for an irrevocable trust. You may have a good one, but I will need to tell you the up and downsides of that type of trust, as well. You may also want to be thinking of who may be a good trustee of that trust, because if you are doing it for asset protection, you will need an independent, unrelated trustee.

If it is a one asset trust, I can most likely do it for about $2,000, but cannot guarantee that if there is more work than expected involved.
Let me know if there is a good time next week to meet for you.

Thanks again.
Dave

Thanks Dave,

Is 4:30 too late? Monday or Tuesday are best for me.

So we can have an efficient exploratory meeting, these are some things I would like to cover:

-Exhaust other possibilities to create the privacy and asset protection I am interested in
-Clarify the duties of the trustee, and the yearly maintenance the trust would require
-Clarify how a trust would work if there is a contract for deed or mortgage; can a trust "buy" land?
-Review if Idaho is a "friendly" state for irrevocable asset protection trusts, and if not, list some alternatives
-Look at an example document of an irrevocable trust

I can elaborate on my thoughts some, so we can hopefully stay under an hour.

Given that:
-It's harder and harder to have privacy,
-I do not plan on having a family or getting married,
-I believe our healthcare system is pretty much broken,
-I see a trend with the government becoming more authoritarian,
$2,000 seems like a reasonable amount to have peace of mind and insulate myself from institutions that I do not think have my best interests in mind.

Please let me know if you have any other questions or thoughts,

Thanks,

tea&jam

tea&jam

I am sorry, but based on your input and desires, I do not think I can help you on this. To be honest, I think you are going to be disappointed with the result, because I really think that you are not going to be able to achieve the level of asset protection and privacy you are seeking.

I wish you the best.

Dave

Eaten Alive In Jail By Bed Bugs or.....

Reading through the story the family is getting an independent autopsy and something tells me that they are going to get a shock when they find out that he died from an overdose or something else and that it wasn't the bugs. Or he may be the one unlucky bastard that was allergic to bed bugs. Ben Crump is on the case so rest assured he'll get to the bottom of it.
Anyone know what his cut of the pie is when the families settle?
