Switching between manners stocks

I think this is the most logical answer of them all and you gave it yourself.
Also this is the first you mentioned of the new cartridge as well.
Yes you have compounding variables here that are not what you’ve been used to and it takes time to get back up to speed.
You only mentioned “ performance” as changing. That’s kinda vague, so it’d be good to know more specifics.
Not as accurate overall? Off a bench? Off barricades? Recoil management is worse? Is it heavier now? Balanced differently? What specifically is different from life with your PRS1?

Gotta have more info… better input better output.

I realized after reading over my original post that I might have been a bit too vague and thought I put more info out but apparently I was very wrong.

So what I’ve noticed is it will shoot a stellar group for three or so shots and then I get a couple “flyers” that creates an equally good group but takes it from say .5” to 1” which isn’t the end of the world but makes me chase my tail trying to get a super solid zero. The stock feels a maybe a wee bit tail heavy due to that anchor of a butt spacer weight, I mean the gorend is almost fully weighted to attempt to overcome the butt weight since it’s not a mile long truck axle for a barrel.

In regards to the new caliber it’s .223, so recoil is pretty much zero compared to the 308 I was running up until this year for matches. I’ve also learned that apparently 223 isn’t exactly the most user friendly in regards to tuning compared to the dasher or few other comp calibers I’ve played with in the past.

BCM Receiver and Lapping

M
I have a Wheeler lapping tool; lapped lots of BCM uppers, never had a need for a "special" reduced diameter.
But I've never measured the diameter of the tool either..............................works fine on every upper of numerous makes, that I've used it on.

FWIW I have the wheeler tool (purchased a few months ago) and it doesn’t fit in my bcm demo upper.

Your comment made me go & check mine, & it is NOT a Wheeler..............it is a Brownell's tool, several years old.

And it does work on BCM's, with oil on the body & paying attention to getting it in absolutely straight.

Sorry for the mis-info..........may bad.

Case cleaning

I use a RCBS case and media separator. Doesn't take too many cranks to get all the pins out of the cases,then I put a 5gal paint strainer bag into a bucket and dump the pins into it .Makes it easy to rinse off and store in the bag. FWIW.

I have tried that, and one from Frankfort, and the big one from Dillon that actually can handle the number of cases I wash at one time. Ultimately there are always pins left over. It’s not worth the hassle to me. Washing without pins works fine since I tumble excessively after sizing.

And all this during a solar maximum... Supposedly a coincidence. But I don't like coincidences.

An article ini Nature linked solar activity with increased plate teuctonics and vulcaniism. But the USGS or NOAA or someone wrote an article refuting it.

I wonder if their article 'refuting it' was designed to point to everything being because of climate change... not solar periods and similar effects that you can't fix by raising taxes and screaming "How Dare You."

That said, 'supposedly' the number of quakes and volcano's is right in line with 'normal numbers.' I guess that the 'normal numbers' are more interesting when they happen in Southern Europe than, say, The Philippinies or some other third world craphole.

Be interesting to do a deep dive on the statistics on this.

And despite the exhortations that 'all is well' with solar events whacking our upper Van Allen belts or whatever they are... I am not so sure!

This was interesting reading last night: https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/sites/default/files/images/u33/finalBoulderPresentation042611 (1).pdf

Cheers,

For a long time actual science has known that solar activity affects this tiny globe in its space. The problem with any government funded “science” organization is obvious.

Pipe dream or possible? Any legal analyses?

I'd think the use of an auto pen would be fine if controlled by the signer, but if otherwise, I'd think that is no bueno.

My profession is in/around Government contracting and anyone who signs documents has to have a delegation of authority letter which authorizes them to sign and legally bind the entity they are signing on behalf of. You can have multiple levels of delegation but I can't imagine the POTUS can delegate his authority legally if what is being signed has to be signed by the POTUS. For example, ITAR documents have to be signed by my company's Empowered Official, of which there is only one for us and it's not me, so I can't sign those documents even though I have authority to commit/bind the company legally. Only the owner of our company can sign those docs with the Dept of State/DDTC. There has to be a law that says ONLY the President can sign x, y, or z. Anything signed by someone else in those cases should be thrown out, but I'd be willing to bet the courts would try to claim intent and Biden was not opposed to what his name was signed to so it's all good.

Those are my thoughts. I'm not a lawyer nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night, so do with that info what you will.

prob right. this will just slide out of sight. the swamp creatures in congress will do nothing except blather,maybe. any lower level judge that gets a piece will try to make it sound fine. the SC is totally unreliable for doing anything to control the deep state. ie except 2 that we are familiar with.

Still waiting for some of this brilliant AI bullshit to actually happen. Thus far AI has managed to increase worldwide electricity demand while not increasing generation by a single fucking kilowatt. It has learned to lie, undermine humans and skew desicions, results and opinion towards the ideas of its fucktard commie programmers. So basically AI is the same shit as always.

Oh yeah, it helps this shitty computer spy on me.

AI is programmed to advance the goals of the elites already in positions of power. Also, the physical act of fixing broken hardware is not a strength of AI. It is terribly inefficient at that.

Nuts. Finally watched it. This is what happens when your “kids” don’t have to get up at 4:30am to feed and milk the cows. Sad, but the shooter needs a better lawyer; he shouldn’t be sitting in jail from what was reported. I suppose if he shot through the door, he might have some explaining to do, but we don’t know all the facts.

Some of that is definitely saying the quiet part out loud! Well-said.

I am wondering… the “cabal” must have known that the autopen was shaky ground… because the one document they needed for their Kamala Coup…. They made him hand sign. No auto pen to remove a President from the ticket.

Seems to me that represents a smoking gun… when you know you have to get a real signature for your new candidate to complete the coup.

But as you say… it’s a Pandoras Box..

Then Again, if left to stand, does the next Cabal take it further and make it even more egregious? If laws were broken and Constitutional lines were crossed, are we obligated as a nation to “not” brush it off?

Lots of folks saying “This is worse than Watergate” over the decades. And IMHO watergate was a tempest in a teapot… but the Left wanted Nixon gone….

This, on the other hand, is a crisis, potentially at a Constitutional level, that makes Watergate look like Jaywalking.

Thanks for the good analysis!

The way activist judges are ruling the US right now is no different. The ridiculous cheering when some particular court decision goes the “proper way” only reinforces the rule of the priests, known as judges. Not only ASGH, but it’s all just a shitty low budget show, just like the fat single mom strippers with saggy tits in high waisted neon bikini bottoms waddling around with each other onstage outside Lejeune main gate on a Wednesday night.
