Another anti-2a who continues to make movies with guns.

Good Lord, some of you guys shoot a heck of a lot more than I do. Three barrels at a time? Might as well go 4 at a time just like Perelli tires on a Porsche

One left!

Come off the gun rather than worrying about fit, especially cheek pressure

Awesome

Oh! I did not catch the lack of an adjustable mag latch in the Hunter DBM. Very good to know.

Is yours a CDG receiver or something else?

It is a terminus Zues

And yes, here is a 285 ELD going 2940 ft./s out of a 32 inch barrel at just shy of 1100 yards on a 12 inch 3/8 plate. 338 is no joke but it ain’t no 50 either.

Very nice. Looks like it was a great trip.

MDT gets my vote.

Boats are a bigger money hole than guns or tractors. Two favorite boat sayings. They are a hole in the water you throw money into and the two best days of a boat owners life are the day you get it and the day you sell it.

She passed a couple months ago.

Edited. I guess I'm mistaken. Still taking care of her. I thought I'd seen she passed a while ago.

Something about their site, their rules.

I have no problem with that since I contribute nothing here. Seriously, it takes 10 seconds to click on and click out of.

Fellas, how am I supposed to come up with satirical YouTube videos about sailing?

I've had good luck with accuracy with my LMT rifles.

You show a picture a SS SPR 1/7 barrel, but mention a 16" 5R barrel.

I have several of the earlier (bright SS), and second generation (Black) that are LMT 18" SPR barrels, and they shoot exceptionally well, sub-moa. My first one with well over 3K rounds through it still shoots sub-moa, but as soon as it gets hot, the shots start to scatter beyond 500-yards. I primarily use various flavors of 77gr SMK factory ammo in either .223 or 5.56.

What amazed me my first LMT that I bought back around 2007, with 16" gas piston chrome lined barrel printed a 1-1/2" group at 300-yards using surplus Lithuanian SS109 ammo. That's the stuff that has the GGG head stamp, and runs Uber clean in an AR platform. Glad I stocked up on it when it was cheap and available.

I'm not really surprised, once they closed down the US service center I'm sure they lost a good deal of institutional knowledge that Jerry had on some of the older set ups. Enjoy the scope!

If you don’t mind the barricade stop, I would absolutely recommend the MDT bottom metal instead, and I own both. The only reason is they have the adjustable mag latch, which is necessary to get optimal feeding for most (not all) rifles. I used it for a terminus build recently, knowing it was a 3 lug action and was able to easily adjust the latch to get the mag feeding smooth as silk.

BUT, as I said in my original post, the Hawkins has worked perfectly for me.

That’s a good reason to vote for Ken Paxton. ‘Nuff said.

Yeah, I’m not a fan of Ken Paxton, but what are our options?

I literally begged Chip Roy (he’s my district’s congressman) at a fund raiser to run for the seat. I told him I’d hate to lose him in the house, but he’d be able to do even more in the Senate, and we have to get rid of that back stabbing RINO Cornyn at any cost.

And we have a couple solid options for a Chip Roy replacement here in TX21 if it comes to that… Also one of the “reddest” districts in TX.

So, I decided to mow the yard AND go to the range. Now, with the bases covered, it’s about to rain.

Actual DOPE from my (100% stock, except for a grip change) AX50 ELR shooting factory 750AMAXes (Did Browning have 750AMAXES?). Doesn't even hit transonic until about 1 mile, and people successfully load for AMAXes way hotter than factory.

ETA: Oh, and that energy number at 2100 is the equivalent of a 300gr Scenar loaded at book max for .338LM (27" TRG42) at 1050 yards. Have you seen 1,000 yd impacts from a hot 338 Lapua? I suspect you have, so you know the kind of energy they're carrying.

Everybody I know with 29 and 30 inch barrels in real life gets about 2600 ft./s at a factory AMAX, and my guess would be the AX50 is doing 2550 tops. I can’t see if you have the muzzle velocity in your chart above.

I get about 2840 out of a 40 inch barrel with 236 grains of RL 50 which is kind of the standard load for the FCSA shooters and some of the custom ammo loading companies. You can go hotter, of course, but I prefer to stay deep within the safe load zone with mine

Mel Gibson Releasing Resurrection of the Christ Part One and Two in 2027

I saw the original of that one in Raleigh, NC when it came out in 1988... Had to walk through a barrage of picketers! The soul scrubbers went mental over that movie. IIRC, we had to drive to Raleigh to see it because it was only shown in a couple of places in the region. Was not showing in Fayette County, that's for sure! I think only one theater in North Raleigh (IBM-Town) was open-minded enough to show it!

Movie didn't impress me. But the reaction to it, I thought, was pretty stupid. Never saw the controversy.

Then again I laughed my ass off all through Life of Brian and that was attacked as well. Even though it never showed Christ in any kind of negative light! Only showed the sillyness of the zealots who were obsessed with Brian!

Interesting times...

Sirhr

PS. The one I was thinking of was Scorsese’s “The Last Temptation of Christ”. Not the Gibson one! Thanks, @JR_77 for the correction!!!
