Question for @RAVAGE88

Mike, what is your opinion on DLC coating for the Vudoo bolt? Should I go for it or leave it alone?

My only experience with DLC on a rimfire bolt is the Volquartsen bolt in their Black Mamba and the after market bolt for the Ruger pistol. It's phenomenal.
The best possible scenario for any bolt and you should go for it on your V22.

Barrel wear or a manufacturing problem?

Thermal shift from the carbon barrel? I know for my carbon barrels I will absolutely have a shift after 10 rounds if I do not allow them to cool (less in my PRC). Even though they look like those big fat truck axel steel barrels, they don’t necessarily behave like them in my experience. Once again, just something I’ve observed personally. Might consider that if you get another barrel. Get a good old steel pretty fluted one or something.

I like the Impulse action. Regarding your earlier post about the trigger discussion at Savage, I see that Jard is making a trigger for the Impulse.

If the Accu-Trigger was "the best trigger" they ever made, why do some companies feel the need in the market place to replace those triggers.


I started a thread asking for input from anyone with experience on the Jard trigger in the Impulse. So far nobody has responded.

Because there's actually a flaw in the Accu-Trigger that will cause it to fail (not saying that's why there are aftermarket triggers). Would it ever happen in the real world? I choose to never say never....

BTW, I'm seeing reports of this story on Newsmax. Absolutely no mention of race in their accounts. None.
hate to say it but black violent crime is rampant and increasing. same with Hispanic crime thanks to the Obiden imports. yes most black violent crime is black on black. but,random unprovoked attacks on whites is increasing. this is not new. i have seen it personally several times as far back as 40 years. # 1 problem in the manipulated reporting is who is white,who is black and who is Hispanic. we have all seen examples of those gov lies. just something else from your rulers to not believe. because of where i live,what i do and where i go; i see little rascism either direction. but i don't go many likely places.

It's crazy to see the shift of the left from anti corporate anti war anti government. To war mongering, big pharma worshipping idiots who see the government as the solution to every problem.
Ain't that the truth. The Democratic Party still loves to go on about JFK, ironic as JFK and his policies would be seen as a far righty today

Yeah, I have a different view than some. I always saw him as a true believer and committed to the Civil Rights movement. He started to have socialist leanings because they fit with some of his Utopian views. But he wasn't a commie. Hoover despised him (and was racist as hell, in addition to being a cross-dressing Peter Puffer)... and was utterly against the Civil Rights movement. So tapped him, collected dirt... and, yes, spied on his affairs. King wasn't a saint. Who is?

The people I regard as lower than whale shit at the bottom of the Marianas trench were his immediate Acolytes... People like Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and a whole coterie of race-baiting garbage who turned his legacy into far left identity politics. All while riding his dead coat-tails into huge bank accounts and a penchant for blackmailing anyone and everyone to increase their power and bank accounts. King had really poor taste in picking members of his inner circle. Or maybe he didn't pick them? Maybe he was stuck with them because (as they do with everything and have for 60 years) they stuck their noses in the trough and would not take it out.

No.... I think King was the real thing. Same as Malcolm-X. Who was all about bootstrapping and 'separation' which would lead to independence and success for the black community.

Remember that the FBI has re-written a lot of history to make those they persecute look bad. You know, like the evil white supremacists and veterans and patriots who they have turned into 'The greatest domestic threat in America' while ignoring leftist pieces of shit who burn cities and have pallets of bricks delivered to them... Oh and laptops, Russia Hoaxes and, of course, shooting people and burning their churches when a non-kinetic approach would have sufficed. But, hey, not TV-worthy.

So maybe I'm Naif. But I am pretty sure that had King lived, the 'identity politics' mess would have been put off or avoided.

And look at his daughters (and late wife) who were sort of 'Kennedy-level' conservatives. Liberal at the time, but by today's standards, they'd be to the right of Atilla the Hun.

That's why I'll respectfully disagree with the legacy of King as a commie or a POS. I think he was the real deal. And in almost every way that counts, on the right side of history. Which took a nasty turn after the Long Hot Summer and because of a dumber-than-a-stump POS with a deer rifle.

But that's just me.

Sirhr
agree with all of that. not a huge fan but... i don't think king was a commie . many of his crew were by belief and action if not card carriers. yes,the cross dressers had dirt on anybody that his boys could get it on. is how he stayed in power and office so long. the FBI is obviously 1 of the biggest challenges to personal freedom in this country. needs to be totally dismantled-LOL.
yes,i think if he had lived we would be way better off in race relations and would have missed Obama and the identity politics abortion we are suffering with. Sharpton and Jackson are about as corrupt as the Clintons,just not quite as successful. they do help feed into the white guilt narrative that the white libs love. in truth his sexual misbehavior was no worse than JFK's and Clintons. he and JFK didn't kill their bimbos. but it seems that the ones that killed JFK prob killed a couple of his.
as an aside i think that if JFK had lived we would all be better off and safer not nirvana but much more stable and prosperous.
surprised to find another Malcolm X fan on here. he was a separatist not quite a radical as Randy Weaver. i like to believe that he and King could have come together and put the blacks on a path that would have produced true benign integration and avoided the current disastrous racial divide. the response of many blacks to MGAG could be a + sign that things can be fixed. i doubt it,however,too entrenched and supported by too many deranged people.

My reason for the questions were in reference to the comments about 700 triggers whether pins or hangers, in PRS we shoot in the rain, extreme hot or cold and many times in very dusty conditions where dirt/sand is literally blown on and in the open chambers and the rifles will shoot without problems for a 100 shooters and 100 rounds or so in a match. That tells you in real-world applications that the current trigger systems work extremely well. Add the fact that there are roughly 365 matches a year in PRS rimfire alone now add NRL 22 and centerfire and you have a number of rounds combined that I think dominates any shooting sport. All with very low problems. Do triggers fail on occasion, yes, but it is very small for the sheer number of shots taking place.
Perfect, this is the answer I was digging for. Demands on the equipment are different than demands on the shooter. PRS definitely puts demands on the equipment, and higher precision in various areas, especially triggers, lead to higher failures. This was proven by various rifle trials associated with contract competition. Most rifles held up pretty well, but the salt spray test killed various things, especially certain triggers.

Pope Death Watch... WITH A PRIZE!!! Quart of Maple Syrup to the winner!

Still Cant get Passed is the Jews beieve in 1 God.. SO how does it go from One God in the Old testament to 3 Gods?
You have been told multiple times and shown with multiple scripture that the Jews had a belief in a plurality in God. You just choose to ignore the verses or completely mis interpret them. I’ll give you the KJV this time since you ignorantly believe only it is scripture and only it is inspired (this is not in the Bible anywhere BTW) For someone who talks so much about things being revealed, it seems you would understand that these passages only show 2 people, but that God revealed the three persons of the Trinity with the coming of Jesus.

“I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him.”
‭‭Daniel‬ ‭7‬:‭13‬ ‭KJV‬‬
Here you have two distinct figures in a fixed place and one is brought before and draws near to each other. That means there is two different people, both given the aspects of God. The son of man is not “the flesh” or just “a man” as you said. The Son of man was always interpreted as a divine figure. That’s why they crucified him in the courtroom sene, he said he was The Son of Man:

“And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven. Then the high priest rent his clothes, and saith, What need we any further witnesses? Ye have heard the blasphemy: what think ye? And they all condemned him to be guilty of death.”
‭‭Mark‬ ‭14‬:‭62‬-‭64‬ ‭KJV‬‬


Back to OT passages:

“Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven;”
‭‭Genesis‬ ‭19‬:‭24‬ ‭KJV‬‬
Here we have one of the divine beings from earlier in Ch19 who ate with Lot being called LORD (which is YHWH in the Hebrew) and he is raining fire down from the LORD (YHWH) in heaven. Again these are two different people and one at least appears to be in the flesh


“And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed. And Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt. And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I.”
‭‭Exodus‬ ‭3‬:‭2‬-‭4‬ ‭KJV‬‬
‭‭
Again we have two separate figures. The first part says the Angle of the LORD (YHWH) is in the bush. Then it says when the LORD (YHWH) saw Moses turn aside, God called to Moses from the bush. So we have the Angle of the Lord Being Called God and YHWH being called God, yet both are different people.

Judges 6:8, Exodus 20:2, and Leviticus 11:45 say that the LORD (YHWH) brought Israel out of Egypt. Yet judges 2:1 says the LORD (YHWH) brought Israel out of Egypt. That is two separate people and the Angle of the LORD is being called YHWH

“that the LORD sent a prophet unto the children of Israel, which said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I brought you up from Egypt, and brought you forth out of the house of bondage;”
‭‭Judges‬ ‭6‬:‭8

“I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.”
‭‭Exodus‬ ‭20‬:‭2‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“For I am the LORD that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.”
‭‭Leviticus‬ ‭11‬:‭45‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“And an angel of the LORD came up from Gilgal to Bochim, and said, I made you to go up out of Egypt, and have brought you unto the land which I sware unto your fathers; and I said, I will never break my covenant with you.”
‭‭Judges‬ ‭2‬:‭1‬ ‭KJV‬‬

I know you are going to rant and rave and say something about “flesh” about all these verses, but the fact is you are absolutely wrong. The Jews understood this as the two powers in heaven and this is what Jesus builds upon in the NT, further revealing the trinity. History and Linguistic is on my side with this one, not your 19th century Pentecostal/Apostolic rantings

John 10:30-33​

30 I and my Father are one.

Jesus uses similar language to address marriage

“and said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭19‬:‭5‬ ‭KJV‬‬

So husband and wife become one Person? It says they become one. No because one is a reference to the closeness and intimacy. It does not mean numerically one. Jesus here can say I and the Father are one, and still be speak of them as two distinct persons. In fact, this makes more sense, because why doesn’t he just say I am the Father if there is no distinction.

(Insert here some rant from CptNk here about flesh. He really isn’t logically consistent is he)
They are First off TITLES Father Son and Holy Ghost are all Title of the Same GOD..

Can you give me the Bible verse that says they are titles and not persons? Seems like you aren’t pulling this from the scripture. I want to see EXACTLY where it says each of these names are TITLES. Then exactly where it says they are just titles for Jesus. Also you have to show me where all three are titles (I show you two persons and plurality, yet you dismiss this because it’s not all three, you need to show specifically where it says all three agree titles in scripture. You need to keep your own standard to be honest and consistent)

You say the same think about persons. I show you were the Father and Son INTERACT with each other and have relationship, which is what persons do. Yet you say it doesn’t say persons, so it’s not true.

The fact is all the scenes of Jesus talking with the Father only make sense if they are Two Persons, Yet one GOD. In your theology you make Jesus look like he is schizophrenic talking to himself that way. (Though by the way you type and rant I am starting to wonder if you are…)
The Image of God was pulled from the Future LOGOS of God
Where does it say that in the Bible? John 1 says the Logos (in my view the eternal Son) made everything, but it doesn’t say that we got our image from the Logos. Especially since you have said before that the Logos is an idea. How could we be made in the image of an idea, Gen 1 says we were made in the image of God.

I already showed you the Trinity Belief on the Trinity and they say it cant be understood but yet the Bible says it can
Show me in the Bible it says we can fully understand God. In fact I think it says the exact opposite

“Canst thou by searching find out God? Canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection?”
‭‭Job‬ ‭11‬:‭7‬ ‭KJV‬‬

This sounds like mystery to me, we can’t know God unto perfection, yet you seem to claim that you can.

“The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.”
‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭29‬:‭29‬ ‭KJV‬‬

God has secret things that belong to him that we do not know. He has revealed some but not all. What he has revealed is Father, Son, and Spirit by nature of their interactions in scripture reveal themselves to be three separate people.


I have Accepted a agreed Plateform for you to explain it (using the bible ) to show me the GOD HEAD.. One Body one Spirit
Again I have posted multiple trinitarian verses. But here is some:

“For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.”
‭‭1 John‬ ‭5‬:‭7‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Again Three in One. One God Three persons. No this is not another veiled reference to the name of Jesus, the text does not lend itself to that.

“Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭28‬:‭19‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Again not a veiled reference to the name of Jesus. The text does not lend itself to that

“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen. 2 Corinthians‬ ‭13‬:‭14‬ ‭KJV‬‬

All three persons being prayed to, not the name of Jesus. All three having different things to give us

“But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.”
‭‭John‬ ‭14‬:‭26‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Here the Spirit is clearly called he. That makes him a person. If it was a force, it would say “it” shall teach you. Also we have the Father sending, not Jesus. All of them are referred to as different people

“And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: and lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬-‭17‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Again all three are present. All three are not the same

Explain the Purpose in your Father (still waiting to see who he is the Father of) the Son and then GOD>> WHo makes the Decisions? How do you approach each one? aren't you afraid One will get jealous of the other? Confusion.
You again seem to be attributing human attributes to God. But here is a verse

“I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.”
‭‭John‬ ‭5‬:‭30‬ ‭KJV‬‬

That is Jesus saying he does not seek his own will, but the will of the Father. So it’s the Fathers will. Also that show the Father and Jesus as different persons. Here it is shown that He/Jesus has a will and the Father has his own will. Here Jesus says he doesn’t seek his own will but the will of the Father. Though they have two distinct wills, because they are two persons, they have one unified will because Jesus does the will of the Father. Again only makes sense if there are two people.
How would Men have known that Jesus(flesh of God) Obeyed..
Who did Jesus obey? Whose will was he following? I say the father as John 5:30 says, he follows the will of the Father

“I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.”
‭‭John‬ ‭5‬:‭30‬ ‭KJV‬‬
IF you Glorify the Son you GLorify the Father and the Spirit. as they are just Titles of God.. But this is not the name.
Nope the text does not say that. Again you say I distort the Bible, yet you can’t even read and do simple exegesis. (Also again nowhere in the Bible does it say Father, Son, Spirit are all titles of God)

“These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee:”
‭‭John‬ ‭17‬:‭1‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Even a four year old can see that there are two separate people here. The Jesus is asking the Father to do something to him. You don’t ask yourself to do something to yourself

John 17​

Again this whole chapter shows Jesus praying and asking the Father for things. Doesn’t make sense if it’s just Jesus
Yes God Talked to himself and so on. Its shows that the Flesh can Obey Gods laws and Live Sin Free
Buddy, this is beyond just talking with himself. When people talk to themselves, they don’t ask themselves for things or ask themselves to do things to themselves. He is communicating with the separate person of the Father.

Also you keep referring to the flesh and have said that Jesus just put on flesh. Now here I am addressing another heresy other than modalism, but how can flesh obey? Don’t you have to have a mind or a will to obey? See Jesus was also fully man. As Hebrews says 2:17 Jesus was made like us in every respect. That means he had a complete human nature, he didn’t just take on flesh

Also, only Jesus could live sin free, we as humans in this state cannot live sin free. As 1 John says, if we say that the truth is not in us (maybe that is part of your problem)

“If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.”
‭‭1 John‬ ‭1‬:‭8‬ ‭KJV‬‬

1 John 1

King James Version

1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;

How was they able to Hear him and see him (Word of Life.. Jesus was the Word incarnate
Yes I agree
2 (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;)
3 That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ. WHere is the Father?
Obedience
Again you do not say that something is with itself. That is not how language works, not even in English. You are BY yourself not WITH yourself. Again you completely fail to see how you quote Trinitarian language and miss the point. You are distorting the plain reading of scripture.

But seriously you are doing eisegesis and not exegesis and you need to learn what those two things mean. You need to read the scripture word for word, paying attention to the context. You constantly skip over many words and ignore the context, distorting the meaning. You are doing this to try and fit it in your theology. If you are sincere, try doing the inductive Bible reading method. It simple, makes you pay attention to context, and doesn’t allow you to skip over things like you have done
