Random copper 1/2-4/3 down the barrel

diggler1833
I'd double check that chambering job. I had a nice cut rifled barrel that copper fouled like mad just like the OP. Took it to the gunsmith who nornally does all of my barrels (not this particular one though), and we noticed with his borescope that it looked like whoever did this barrel had managed considerable runout in the leade.

That barrel still shot okay, but 1/2 - 3/4 of the way down it collected copper like an Ozark meth head.

It wasn’t a failure. It was intentional since the beginning. Take over the youth and in 2 generations you will have an army of socialist drones.

Prosecutor to let registered sex offender walk free after elementary school kidnapping attempt

It most certainly is.

foxnews.com: no mention of disposition
nypost.com: “…committed into mental health treatment.”
denver7.com: “...the defendant will be civilly committed for mental health treatment. Contrary to what has been reported, the defendant is not being released out in the public.”
wbznewsradio.iheart.com: no mention of disposition
kdvr.com: no mention of disposition

However…

I suppose leaving that out gets one’s juices of indignation flowing, with the “progressive prosecutor” and all…

Many of the titles deliberately make the suggestion that the perp would walk free to good theatric effect.

Quite disingenuous, but we took the bait without hesitation.

Prosecutors plan to drop charges against sex offender in elementary school alleged kidnapping attempt

Charges could be dismissed against a registered sex offender after a mental competency evaluation found him unfit to stand trial for attempted kidnapping at an Aurora school.

Even the original foxnews.com article cited in the first post mentions waaay at the bottom that they revised the original title, but made no mention of the perp being committed (might have missed the latter, if it was mentioned).

Pretty shameful, right?

There was a local lady who drowned her two children. Not like woopsie not paying attention drown either. She filled the tub and held them under until they were dead. She spent a.couple years in prison. Got herself moved to a mental facility for a couple years. "Got better" mentally. Spent total of about 5 years actually locked away from society for murdering her two young children.

My guess is he will be back on the street in less than a couple years.

Is N150 a throat torcher??

Supersubes

That doesn’t make any sense. While correct that the bullet engraved on the lands the throat is larger than the bullet, so no engraving or friction to speak of, hence the term “Fire Cracking”, and not Friction Cracking. If what you said was true it would start at the lands, and it doesn’t. I’m pretty sure it’s burning powder that heats the steel enough to cause fire cracking. There is certainly friction, but I think if our guns were air powered, instead of a chemical explosion, no fire cracking.

You beat me to it, that was going to be my analogy. To me the throat behaves exactly as you’d expect it to given the flame temps and pressures. There’s no getting away from throat features burning away despite very little contact with the bullet. If friction heating erosion were a thing, barrel wear would progress more slowly as the barrel aged, since the lands are rounding out and shortening, reducing friction.
