He may be right.

WTF. A three pararaph luckyduck post. You break your fingers or run out of stuff to say?

I shot with Lones for years at the Olympic Training Center and we shot as Teammates a time or two. He was one of the finest humans I ever met and one of the best officers the Army ever produced, even though his jealousy of the Air Force was fun to play with.

That magical rifle of his is on display at the OTC. It is an old wood stocked Anschutz 54.

He was my friend and I miss him.

Perhaps when big green shut down, rather than retire, the incredible hulk went to Tikka then Aero to tighten barrels.

Just a consideration….I finally sent a few buckets of crimped mil brass out to be cleaned and swaged. It was not much but just made everything simpler…and while I have the swage it, took it off and just run the processed brass. (550 and 650).

Life is much better. Coin vs time/parts/frustration…your call.

All the rest of your plan sounds solid.

Thanks man, I’m cleaning some brass now and waiting on the last package. Should be here tomorrow.

Who did you use to process your brass?

They should be very good shooters until approx 600 Yards. In tons, which proof has it ?

The Parker Hale 7.62mm hammer forged barrels are considered by our local NZNRA shooters, to be good out to 800 yards. Glass bedding of the receiver to fore-end interface—where allowed—has proven greatly beneficial, according to my friend Duncan MacKee, husband of government minister, the Honourable Nicole McKee, also a good friend of mine. N.B. Original No. 4 fore-ends will all be over seventy (70) years old by now. Cheers from NZl

I have not ran into any, for blasting ammo with 556.

Prep toolhead
Universal decap
Dillon trimmer/dillon die

Load toolhead
Mandrel/neck expander

Do you run lubed cases during your loading die process. I was reading most will mandrel after trim/size then run cases dry when loading.

How is Craddock not on the list?

Most of those are unlikely to disappoint tbh.

Yeah Craddock Bartlein is my go to.

Has anyone played with handloading NAS3 cases ?

FYI Mile High has Lapua 223 brass in stock. Just ordered another 300.

The humidity that counts is the powder humidity and I measured it in the new canister at 52% relative humidity and a temperature of 65° prior to loading these rounds.

I have done previous extensive testing and found that water does not escape a loaded case in any appreciable amount, despite one year of widely fluctuating temperatures.

So my presumption always is that the relative humidity of the powder or better said it’s water content remains what it originally was as long as the primer is seated tightly, and the bullet is sealed in the neck. I use imperial wax to seat and seal my bullets in the neck

Chickenshit stunts like what Comey posted are mental triggers to motivate some of the their deranged assets. The intelligence agencies have been grooming patsies for such tasks since the JFK years.

Go ahead and party like it's 1999. I'm not sold on predictions from long ago but tomorrow isn't guaranteed.

None of the above.

OP, thanks for the good AAR on the match. I'm spooling up to go to the Hunter's Coalition match in Clovis, NM in late June. Question for you or any NRL Hunter experts: Can you use an OBI attachment with a tripod in an extended configuration? The tripod I have is a RRS TFCT-34 with three extendable sections. I'm assuming it would be against the rules to walk up to a stage with its legs extended hanging on an OBI attachment? I know a lot of guys game things a bit by using long legged tripods pretty much ready to roll on an OBI.

True...but this is the hide, so not surprising,.

For those interested in reading the actual decision:

again,a tough one. there was a report showing that the Iranians were not working on a nuc weapon. it came out after Gabbard was on board as head of DNI. frustrating like everything else. we get contrasting work on just about everything. and that is just from the "conservative" side of the news i never look at MSM, the very obvious lies are just too too infuriating.

Good news from Rare Breed yesterday; should help everyone:
