Itar only affects outgoing from US, not incoming.

When I fly with someone that has 450 hours in type (the specific plane I fly), I'm on pretty high alert. I don't consider them new, but low-experience. Keep in mind that to even get to that stage at my job, that person would have at least 1500 total hours, and would likely have been a Captain at a different airline.

Exactly. To be able to be considered for the Blue Angels, you have to have a minimum of 1500 hrs of CARRIER flight time (not total time). Why are they trying to train a pilot with only 450 hrs to fly the POTUS (or other VIPs) out of DC, covertly, in an emergency situation in such a congested environment?

It doesn’t matter as far as mils… it’s one’s distance in inches per click on target that changes with MV and distance.

That’s why when spotting we don’t say “come up 8 inches Bob” (because then the number between a Creed and an ARC would be different).

Wut?

This might help anyone with the lots that are slower... from climbslc's post on ARF.com

Conditions:
16” 1/8 SS Denny’s Recon barrel
Garmin chrony
60 degrees
4200’

FPS average for each Lot listed newest to oldest based on purchase date, but the lot numbers don’t proceed in perfect order (I guess they don’t line em in the warehouse exactly by lot #

).

WTF can't way more blacks be as aware,intelligent and articulate as this guy? this is an example of why a race war,that has some justification,would be a loss for everyone that could never be undone. a solution is beyond the ability of anyone to formulate.

I haven’t seen these yet in AL; but there is a HUGE solar farm just west of West Memphis, AR that makes me sick when I drive by. Absolutely disgusting.

well,the libs are burning Teslas (lib owned usually). what would happen if rt wing fanatics destroyed solar panel farms (likely Chinese owned) by,like,running over them with dozers,front end loaders or combines?

Congrats ! I retired in 2022, went back to work end of 2024, after remodeling my house top to bottom myself, not a sit around and watch tv guy. Best wishes to you and yours , have fun !

OP

Get a tall target marked in mils and confirm your amount of error at the extreme ranges of the scopes travel - without firing any ammo. If it is fixed % of error you can adjust your dope accordingly and/or send the scope back for repair.

Since I want to fire form some cases that I can measure their case volume, I’ve annealed, sized, prepped and loaded up 10 cases that I’ll also measure velocity to get some idea for velocity with a load of IMR-4064 that I’ve used before. Primers that were removed were reseated to the same depth as before (.004 blow flush).
View attachment 8656948

The rest of the cases were put through my annealing process as well (flame annealing to a red glow) then expanded the necks with a .305” expander mandrel. Once all the cases are fire formed, I’ll then turn the necks to .014” thick.
View attachment 8656951

To make sure all the powder is out of the cases and take care of the oxidation layer after annealing, I wet tumbled them with SS pins (25 min).
View attachment 8656952

Took the clean cases and FL sized them all, dry tumbled to remove lube and trimmed to length. Here the finished product:
View attachment 8656953

BTW: While sizing the cases, there was one case of the batch that had a funny sound when removing it from the sizing die. That sound and the way it felt alerted me that something wasn't right. I measured the case OAL and it was way long, like .032" longer that is should be. Measuring its headspace had the same issue. Apparently the steel head fitting to the brass has pulled out as there was much more space between the steel head and the brass body on the outside surface. So, it's not a case I'm going to try to use in any way.
View attachment 8657338

Finally got around to firing those 10 cartridge's I loaded with 41.7 grs of IMR-4064 behind some 190gr SMK's that's been just laying around for some time. This was simply to fire form them that I can measure their case volumes before I load the rest of them up. Case volume wasn't quite as much as I expected at an average of 56.3 grs H2O and the case weight averaged 165.5 grs. Neck thickness for these cases varied from ~.014" - ~ .015" on various cases. Case head space measured ~.001 longer than my fired Lapua cases, though they started out a little shorter.

SD was 4.7 with ES of 15 for the 10 shots, which is surprisingly good considering I reseated the primers that had been removed to the same seating depth. For an arbitrary load I used, it did surprisingly well (it's not a powder or load I plan to use, being it was just for fire forming).

The transition from the steel head to brass body appears to have tightened up nicely (left is an original case, right is a fired .308 case):

Trump is doing a great job in domestic affairs. his foreign policy moves are concerning. i hope he keeps the pressure on at home. eg ignore all those judges and carry on. tell them to send their troops to stop him. he could easily raise a "volunteer" group to back him up.

mosin46 · Thursday at 11:40 PM

not being nuc knowledgeable,i sure missed it. just gives more reason for concern re Ukraine and the neonazi psychopaths running that country. in our wisdom we are sending them more effective missiles. not confidence inspiring re India/Pakistan either.

Who’s got them? I NEED them haha

We have the M82A1 as well, first rifle I shot over 1,000 yards with 19 years ago.

And the last pic was my Dad’s Sig 551-2 duty rifle.

Oh, I agree. I have no use for the man at all, and disagree with much of what he says for sure. We are/were not his audience. He had one though, and some of the stupid things he said made sense for them. I couldn't get over his training to panic at all and that caused me to completely dismiss him, but it's valid for who his audience is. Most of the people who are afraid of guns should not carry one, but some do.

I do know that you know enough to tell other people who disagree with you they're dumb fudd, idiots on the internets. I know you keep coming back and keep doubling down. Is there a reason to know you? You're bad at this, but you may have other fine qualities.

I only ever wanted success for you! Help me lead you to success!

Another spit ball, but did you confirm that the feed ramps on the barrel extension do not extend beyond the feed ramps in the receiver? Assuming that your receiver has feed ramps.

TonyAngel · Thursday at 11:21 PM

Just spit balling here, but have you checked the mag height in the magwell? Long shot, but could be your mag catch is holding the mag too low causing too steep of a feed angle. Once an empty mag is seated and the mag catch is engaged, how much up and down play is there?
