Badlands "Shell Shock" 5.56 - snake oil?

Hybrid cases, pfft Login to view embedded media
If I recall correctly from the episode with the brass and action with some people who knew more than himself to guide him he went well beyond what was calculated to be 100,000psi. Should go without saying, don’t try this on your Remington 700…
I have been using starline small rifle primer brass to push my 308s to 30-06 velocities. I havent noticed any difference between those and Petersons. The only thing I have done is anneal the starline and I am using mag small rifle primers. It is 99% case fill so it is compressed but have not had any pressure issues with my Origin action. The 155 tmks are running at 3015fps on average. I would not try this in a semi auto obviously or even a lower quality action.

Free busses, free child care, govt. grocery stores, rent freeze.

Thats not the reason for the problem, at least not in the beginning. Like I mentioned above, it began 50 or so years ago with 'white flight' which took the jobs and money to the burbs. Lack of jobs/work/ opportunities and It went down from there to where it is now. There are almost always more than one reason for a problem/

But its so much easier to jsut shit on the 13%

You say "white flight" caused it. What caused "white flight"?

We helped build one in a vacant lot in Pittsburg seversl years ago. It was pretty cool. The lady who organized it owned the lot so it was nothing sketchy. The city declared it derelict and confiscated it even though it was an mini food forest that the community was using

Certainly can’t have people doing fascist things like growing their own carrots on land the city wants to tax!

Have i changed a single mind? Pi**a G@te IS real!


So many of the journalist community are getting busted with kiddie porn, it almost seems like a club!

Washington post… Pulitzer Prize. So has the WAPO put this on the front page yet?

Those late night journalist types sure seem to order a lot of pizza, too.

Consistency, or lack thereof

Start with checking everything on your rifle. Scope rings, base, and action torqued properly, etc. I once had a rifle that all of a sudden started shooting bad and discovered that the front ring had loosened at the base.

A good barrel and quality bullets are where accuracy begins. I usually see better results on target with Berger than Sierra, but have shot many half sub 1/2 MOA groups with Sierra.

Redding makes very good dies and there is nothing wrong with a Rockchucker. On some of my brass, I like to use a mandrel die to set neck tension. Annealing really helps with tension and the shoulder bump. Make sure you anneal BEFORE sizing.

My belief is that you can get good groups from almost any powder that has the correct burn rate window for your cartridge. I've seen some pretty amazing groups from surplus ball powders. Varget is a powder that a lot of people swear by, but I have used many other powders with succes. TAC, RL15, N140, 8208XBR, and H4895 may not give the highest velocity, but have shot well for me in 308.

I've seen that as well. Sounds like a winner.

Kayla Giles conviction overturned!!!

Thank God!

Who?
This was all over the gun forums last year. She was a USCCA member who was dropped from coverage after she killed her abusive ex husband during a custody exchange....while he was beating on her. She ended up with a public defender and the Judge said she could not claim self defense
