The Abundant Birth Project began in June 2021 to serve pregnant women with $1,000 monthly payments over 12 months to 150 people. The program is intended to "reduce the racial birth disparities by easing economic stress."

On Tuesday, San Francisco's Department of Public Health announced a $5 million grant in state funding to expand the program in Alameda, Contra Costa, Los Angeles and Riverside counties for the next two to three years

Well....they knew what they were doing, they thought no one would care....

A few recents going together this morning.

When I was a kid (1950's) one of the big debates was about perpetual motion. Was it achievable? Looks like someone has achieved it, at least until the gizmo wears out. Now if you could harness that energy and multiply it by millions, you might have something.

What is your thoughts on this, I have many reservations, But, Hope they do make the right call?

Anybody experiencing that their bolt-lugs on Curtis Custom Valor galls during cycling?

Eager to know what people have done to sort this out and to fix it?

My story below:

In 2021 I figured that I'd give the Valor a chance. Setting aside 2000+ USD to purchase the action, spare bolts and parts. The exitement was high upon arrival. Rushing of to the gunsmith with the a fresh barrel and the brand new action. I had seen som slight wear of the bolt surfaces and lugs prior to this, but somehow convinced myself that it it was supposed to be like that. (never had nitrided actions before)

Got the gun back from my gunsmith amd headed to the range for the initial test runs. During load development I'd see all kinds of weird pressure signs, even though I was on the lower end wrt charge weights.
During this process I inspected the bolt lugs to be heavily galled. Compared with my inital headspace to current one had increased by 0.005 in.

Back to the gunsmith to redo the headspace. Same story, headspace constantly increasing due to the bolt lugs galling severly.

In total I've been back and fort to the gunsmith three times in just a little over 600 rounds.
Headspace have increased a total 0.011.

Attaching a few photos of how my bolt look like today. Also note that it startet galling prior to having fired any rounds. (de-greased)

I know of a few others that faced the same kind of issues.

Just speculation from my side now, but I do suspect that the action and the bolt material hardnesses are way of eachother, whereas the bolt is simply to soft. Lapping will not fix it.
Could also very well be a machining-issue as parts of the receiver body to have very sharp edges, particulary the receiver bearing surfaces.

I'd have to give Credit to Curtis wanting to fix this. I am however very concerned about the long-term quality for PRS-Use.

Eager to know your thougts.

I'm sure this dead horse has been beaten many a time so my apologies.

I got a protecktor rabbit ear bag for a front rest I bought and it works great, but shooting prone with this thing is a pain in the nuts. Looking for a bag strictly for static shooting off a bench and prone and load development. Looking at the precision underground elr 3D bag. For those that have them, can it be adjusted by squeezing if I need to go up or down a little? Any other suggestions on others? I just got an atlas cal bipod, and I'd like to take advantage of this thing with a better rear bag.

Looking for a nice 5-25x. ZCO or TT. Must have MRAD Xmas tree reticle.

I was just reading the thread on what all do you own and your gun journey, and all the funny responses it got me thinking of my firearm journey. So if you would like to join in go for it.

Worst purchase-When stationed at Hood this guy in 2nd Brigade was selling his deployment gun. A sig 556xi, with his OIF dates engraved and that stupid logo Rakasan people put on everything they walk by. I zeroed the irons, the rear site was almost all the way right, but I got it zeroed, Then I put on a old Trijicon rm-01 trijicon. No matter what I did I couldn't zero it. Turns out the whole front rail was canted. Sig told me if I am the original owner I could sent it in for warranty work, apparently, this was a known issue. I asked if I wasn't how much would this cost? They told me if its just the rail not too much, but the rail piston system and all that could be off which would cost me damn near what I paid for the gun. I think it's at a pawn shop in Colorado Springs now. unless a 101 guy saw it with that logo then it's in thier possession lol.

Surprisingly good impulse buy- Walther PPK. I saw one at my gunsmiths for sale, and I immediately imagined myself in a suit, surrounded by sexy women, and with a British accent, my Aston Martin parked outside. I got it for a good price (can't believe new those fuckers go for like 8-900 dollars). I purchased it then after realizing I'm fat, don't own a suit, drive a dodge, and my gf is pretty but not James bond girl pretty. It was used, I took it out to the mountains, I was honestly surprised at how accurate it was for a little .380. Also, it ate everything I put in it.
