Does group size really matter or, is Mean Radius what we should be aiming for?

To be honest, I'm over seeing bullshit 3 or 5 shot groups that mean little more than bragging rights.
If you guys really want to do something meaningful about making your practice rounds count more than anything you've heard of &, something way better than your bullshit group size, C'mon in & learn what we all should be shooting for unless, we are Bench Rest shooters &, don't really count in the normal world.

Absolutely worth watching… Eugenics movement

This is a superb video on the Eugenics movement and how Progressives (aka well-meaning liberals who are utter monsters but fixated on their own ability to improve society) operate.

This Made-in-America crusade led to the extermination of some 10-20 million people and is still viewed (with catchy new names) as the way to create a better society by killing and sterilizing those folks consider undesireable.

It’s a couple of hours … but worth every second. Note the familiar faces… no, not The Austrian Corporal… but the American politicians, billionaires and celebrities.

Afterwards contemplate in the fact that this is what our “leaders” still envision for “flyover country.”

Funny universities still have lots of buildings named for these monsters. University of Bermont was Ground Zero for the “settled science” of eugenics last century. How many of your local educational institutions were promoting genocide… but refuse to acknowledge or pay reparations?

How many (like UVM) are promoting new genocides in the basis of the “settled science” of saving the planet. Yes… they are planning it. Published papers and “lauded” professors congrats for the extermination of 8 billion people to put the “Earth in Balance.”

Everything else is just a distraction at this point. This is their plan.

Enjoy the watch and remember this is real history. Not conspiracy’s. It happened. It’s still happening (get ready for GMO babies!).

Sirhr

PS. On the subject of GMO ones… when the “science” began to state it was possible… there was an outcry that all parents would GMO their kids to produce blue-eye blonde tall super smart kids. But how many would now want to GMO their kids as brown… androgynous… even defective (special kids!). Remember in Brave New World the children were “decanted” to be good-looking high-IQ “Alpha’s” through Epsilon semi-morons (plant workers.). All Raised by the State. Because, you know, “it takes a village.”

Where did I hear that phrase before…??

Colorado closing roads


This article struck me as over the last two years I have noticed CDOT closing roads on a whim. Last year during two diffrent wind storms they closed highway 287 from lamar to spring field because there are two miles of fields blowing dust outside of lamar. That is 45 miles of highway. A few week ago, they closed the highway from lamar to las Animas when there was an 800 acre fire on the other side of Las Animas and the river from the highway. Again 32 miles of highway closed people routed over an hour around it. They had snow plow parked backwards in the middle of the road blocking it. And the fire burned about 2 square miles of river bottom about 5 or 10 miles from the highway.

Colorado passed a law in 2020 cdot can close the highway when ever they want for "public safety."

Now they're running drivers off the road with snow plows for ignoring their frivolous closures. I have seen bad dust storms and river bottom fires all my life. Prior to the last two years I have seen the highway closed twice during severe blizzards where more than 3ft of snow fell in a day.

‘Gloves Off’: Democrat Tennessee State Senator Calls for Riots After Republican Lawmakers Pass Pro-Police Bill


00-7-600x367.jpg



A Democrat Tennesssee state senator has called for riots after Republican lawmakers passed a pro-police bill.​


State Sen. Charlane Oliver was responding to the passing of legislation that prevents cities from restricting police officers from making certain types of traffic stops.
Speaking to the press on Friday, Oliver, co-founder of the social justice warrior activist group “the Equity Alliance,” vowed that “we’re gonna fight.”
“So yeah, we’re gonna fight,” Oliver said. “Dr. King said the riots are the language of the unheard. You [sic] ain’t seen nothing yet. If you keep silencing us like this, what do you think our districts [sic] gonna do?”

“It is rooted in racism,” Oliver said. “This is a Jim Crow bill that [Sen. Brent] Taylor brought and all his Confederates voted for it.” Video @FOXNashville pic.twitter.com/F7rhyeAwzu

“Gloves off,” Oliver continued. “Like, we’re gonna fight like hell, you don’t expect us to respond when you gaslight us every single day with these bills?”
Oliver claimed that the bill is “rooted in racism.”
“It is rooted in racism,” Oliver said. “This is a Jim Crow bill that [Sen. Brent] Taylor brought and all his Confederates voted for it.”
State Senator London Lamar, also a Democrat, claimed that Republicans passing the bill was “a form of slavery.”
“I feel like a slave sometimes in this building,” Lamar said. “I am tired of [sic] Republican Party expecting us as minorities to do what they want to do but treat us disrespectfully. Nah, we’re not doing that [sic] no more… We’re at the time of the session where [sic] gloves off.”

Barrel up or barrel down when riding

This has caused many a time arguments at work when I was a farm hand, hunting with distant family (or new comers into the family), do ya’ll ride (when cases aren’t an option) with your barrels up or down when driving w/ multiple people?

Is there a real reason as to why people chose one or the other?

I’ve always gone muzzle up as I’d rather patch a hole in the roof than get a new T case or transmission (in the unlikely event my rifle/shotgun is loaded), and to prevent the crown/bore from being damaged or blocked. Would like to see if anyone else has ever had any argument over it or thoughts in the matter.

Never work in the cannabis industry..

First thing I’ll say is no, I do not partake in the consumption of marijuana.

A year ago, while I was working at a smaller family-run CNC shop (mill operator) I came across a job listing for industrial maintenance. The job paid $8/hr more than I was making, with much better benefits and PTO. Monday through Thursday dayshift schedule. This being a no-brainer, I was offered the job and accepted.

What I didn’t realize was that the money I was making, most banks consider “dirty” and auto & home loans are almost impossible to secure without some form of questionable doings. Which is huge for, because at 33Y/O I’m finally in the position to buy my first home.

So now here I am. A year later, unable to make these dreams a possibility (something I wish I’d known beforehand) and am now forced to look for work again, fearing I will never land anything because I work in cannabis and therefore, I must be a dirty lazy pothead.

To all of you, never consider this career. I’ve been in manufacturing for 15 years and thought I’d jump into “the next frontier”, but it’s holding me back from what I’d like to do.

Vertical Stringing

Hey guys

Has anyone ever had their 22lr suddenly lose its accuracy?
My std CZ 452 has been a tack driver from new almost 10 years ago.
As it was always capable of at least a few single ragged hole groups on any range session whether the barrel was clean or dirty, I just ran a few wet and dry Hoppes#9 followed by an oil patch after every shoot.

It just stopped shooting well and the pattern was a real low 1st shot up to 2" 2nd shot about 1" low, then worked up to the 10 ring and starts grouping OK.

It got a new scope and eliminated ammo and all the usual things.
Then scrubbed and scrubbed the chamber as a carbon ring was suspected, then bought a Teslon bore scope.
It seemed to be shooting well on rimfire silhouettes getting strings of 4 hits in a row standing pole-supported.

Last week in good conditions I shot some groups and they are near enough a straight line with the same vertical dispersion.
Could bet on the super low 1st shot , then climbs and starts grouping.
Shooting it's fav SK std ammo and by the 4th group it starts shooting well including 5 touching.
Put it down and shoot another rifle, pick it up and load up some mags with CCI std and it shoots a few identical 3-4" straight line groups and then starts shooting OK.

Previously if ammo testing and unsure, I could just load a mag of SK and it would often shoot a single hole, no need to shoot the same ammo.
It can only be the rifle or stock causing it and the dollar note feels the same as always, clearance and only tight up near the action.
I have been working up with action screw torque and was up high at over 25 inch/lbs so have backed down to about 15 and 10 on that middle screw. If that's not it, I may have to sand the wood a touch in the barrel channel.

After that, I am out of options and my local gunsmith can look with his bore scope and check out my targets.

So sad as it was my first rifle and always shot like a laser, often I could put 10 shots out on the 200yd target without a big scope, just walk the shots onto the target and aim a rock above. Often got a fist-to-hand-sized cluster with 1 or 2 flyers.

Do you blokes know what these straight line groups working up can be caused by?
