Maggie’s Funny & awesome pics, vids and memes thread (work safe, no nudity)

As much as I hold the very idea of 'Royalty' in absolute contempt, she was a tough old bird, a Brit to the core. During the blitzkrieg of WWII they tried to get her and her husband to leave London. They refused. She worked as a mechanic in the war effort.

During World War II, when there were attempts to persuade Queen Elizabeth (later the Queen Mother) to evacuate her daughters from London during the Blitz, she famously stated, "The children won't go without me. I won't leave the King. And the King will never leave." She also expressed, "I am glad we have been bombed. Now we can look the East End in the eye," according to the Imperial War Museums and the International Churchill Society, after Buckingham Palace was bombed. These statements highlighted her resolve to stay with the British people during the conflict.

I Spy New Baby Razor G3 4-24

Yes I’d like a sub 28oz FFP crossover scope with a usable reticle on both high and low mag. And that is doable but no one does it anymore….
And that’s why I don’t own one of those. I also don’t build 15 pound rifles and call those light either. To each their own.

And that speaks volumes doesn’t it?

Ingenuity Powder System

Yes, I have two of the RCBS powder droppers and they like to choke on the big kernels and you have to force it to cut one of them or jiggle it back-and-forth every couple of throws which can cause the powder to settle and lead to overcharges if you are close to the target weight. This is the thing that brand Cole the maker of the Prometheus warns you not to do and I have always guessed that he made some modifications to the RCBS one that comes on the Prometheus so that it is better radiused to deal with large stick powders - but that is just a guess. I have likewise assumed that Adam McDonald tweaked the one on the V3 to avoid this problem.

L3i barrel o Lilja CZ 457 questions

I've been looking around at aftermarket barrels. Trying to decide between L3i and the Lilja barrels. I won't be shooting match grade ammo all the time. From a little searching, it's been said the L3i barrels aren't as picky about ammo as the Lilja barrels. Does this sound about right or, was I reading misinformation? Also, will either one or both fit the standard Varmint factory stock with a little work? Thanks!
