I hear you. I’m just part of other groups that are managed a little tighter I think. Where the “I’ll xxxx it” trumps any PMs. I just have to be more aware.

Yup small groups are easy to run but this site is far from small and been around for decades. Even here posting that doesn’t trump anything. The seller can sell to who he wants. You don’t win by posting first.

That video is about a woman telling women who want to stay at home as a traditional wife that they should not. Instead, they should keep working, because they could be seeing themselves up to be "trapped by a man."

She strikes me as a typical man hating feminist.

The woman on the left was trapped by her "trapped by a man" comment. She backtracked. So I'm not sure if that was a term that she really wanted to use or that's what she was really thinking. Probably the latter.

On the other hand, Pearl did say that if a man was paying all of a woman's bills then he has certain expectations. And rightfully so; too many women think that it's a man's duty to support them with getting nothing in return.

It's okay for modern women to demand unconditional love but don't want to give it in return. They are comfortable with accusing men as viewing relationships on transactional terms but are indignant when it's turned around on them.

The Stiller is a great action, the only drawback is the lug is not integral that’s why the Switchlug with a Stiller would be the route to go if you want to swap barrels while the action is still in the chassis.

So showing that I'm completely new when it comes to bolt guns, does the stiller offer anything over a factory rem 700 LA? That's what I currently have, I'm just trying to sort out what I don't even know at this point.

I’m paying you guys $$$ monthly. How am I “part of the problem”. Fix your website. It’s YOUR problem not the customer. If this was a free forum then you could ask the users to fix the problem. Way to put the blame on the customer.

My bad. I’ll try harder to get rid of the scammers. Looks like I have another job. What’s my salary to take care of your problem?

Ridiculous.

You are on the internet, in an open forum.
You are exposing yourself to strangers there is some risk associated with that.

The adage goes "You'll never get hit by a bus if you don't cross the street"

They can't vet every singe user.

Did you stop paying your taxes because there is still crime.

Thanks. I have some of those and also some 120 ballistic tips for a 20” deer rifle, will try this recipe out.

Yea seems a touch hot but may be lot dependent. I just did 42.8 of H4350 with 120 ELDs, 2913 out of Tikka 24" which are known to be slow barrels.

With a brake had some significant snap/blast to it. With CCI 250s brass and primers look good though, might just barely be starting to flatten but nothing super noticeable.

Either way these bullets aren't great out passed about 1k yards anyway so I don't see the need to run them on the ragged edge. Similar wind holds to a 308.

*Hornady brass

In Indiana, I have a lifetime permit. Once its issued more than 5 years, it will still be valid but they'd still run the check.

Of course that's if I understand the write-up.

swinging platforms are gay

don't be afraid to pull your bipod in for shooting prone/modified prone off shorter platforms. probably wouldn't have helped on the swinging platform, but might have made it more comfortable.

on the last t-post, see if you can get your right knee up with your foot flat on the ground, then put your right elbow inside your knee

I do need to practice kneeling, good eye.

What upcoming matches you plan on going to?

Maybe the scorcher in July. Trying to talk some buddies into driving to Arkansas. I have some fishing travel for the next 6 weeks so I’ll be well rested. Congrats on the win!

RIP Phil, you're home now. Always enjoyed the show, and loved the fact they would not back down on their Christian beliefs and told A&E to pound sand.

Across the entire spread, the variability is 0.2%.

Just saying…

Just got mine today. Haven’t had a chance to trim with it yet but I can confirm it came with all 8 pilots you listed.

Let’s us know about the consistency of it. Haven’t seen really any videos on that yet

.223 is probably one of the more difficult cartridges to get tight ES/SD on (which still seems to defy logic). With a sample size of (1) and no idea what your ES/SD are going to be... it is going to be really difficult to accurately explain your velocity phenomenon for the first nine shots.

People are going to argue the merits of the ladder tests for the rest of time. If I were forced to do one - for any reason other than to find pressure limits - I'd probably do it at 600 yards, where the environmental factors really begin to come into play... and you'll really start to see the effects of velocity spreads in your vertical on target.

At this point, I'd probably suggest just picking a velocity that you're comfortable with (no pressure), and messing with seating depth until the accuracy occurs that you're after.

Ok. I feel like you are the resident expert on sorting and I’d like your advice. I sorted 150 solids and have quite a few bins to group into a 100 count box and a 50 count box. They are for an ELR clinic I’m traveling to soon. We will practice early morning and late afternoon with books in between. Out of the 150, here’s what I got:
16ct: 406.06-406.28
16ct: 406.30’s
24ct: 406.40’s
24ct: 406.50’s
31ct: 406.60’s
17ct: 406.70’s
11ct: 406.80’s
10ct: 406.90’s
None weigh 407.00
My thinking is light to heavier.

Note that there’s a normal distribution curve there if plotted. There’s a group of three there encompassing over 50% that consists of 406.40-406.60+. That’s essentially 406.55 +/- 0.15. Which is 0.04% variation of total weight.
