Ukraine war Bullshit.

You assume that the B2 flyover was intended to influence Putin - maybe it was to influence US citizens, maybe influence EU
I know a way to influence and fuck to the EU, pull all our funding to NATO, pull all our money, bases, and military equipment from Europe. Nothing but a bunch of deadbeats living and getting protected by the US taxpayer.
Let Europe take care of itself like adults should.

Why are AR15s so difficult to shoot for the average shooter?

I once heard a comedian make fun of men and their lack of humility with something like this: "a lot of guys seem to think they come out of their mother's womb knowing how to drive a car, how to screw a woman, and how to shoot a gun."
The 3 Fs. Fight, fuck, and drive Fast…

Bartlein Barrels Update

I would try Bugholes first. Call/email as they are getting barrels in all the time. Not sure what is going on with their notifications, but both Greg and Russ are nice to chat with on the phone.

Grizzly industrial also carries a selection of Bartlein Barrels, but the price has jumped substantially on the Bartlein blanks in the last year or so.

Still contemplating a savage 10fp in 308.

The extraction issue is what really plagued the savage platform. I’ve owned several and have seen many with similar issues. But the detent ball swap has fixed almost all of them. A newer 6.5 CM is one that still had issues after the swap
I’ve probably put 20,000 through my 5 Savage center fire rifles and have never had extraction issues of any kind. The ejector springs are kind of weak but that’s about it for me.

Still contemplating a savage 10fp in 308.

First of all I’m surprised that there isn’t any Savage hate in this thread. That’s not usually the case on this forum.

I have 5 Savage center fire rifles.
110BA in 338 LM, 10BA in 308, 10BA rebarreled to 6BR, 12FV in 6.5CM, and a 10TR in 308.

The only rifle that was a turd out of all of them was the 10TR. It would shoot 30” left at 25y.
I sent it in to the Savage service center and being in Canada it took over a year to get a new barrel.
I took it out and it was still doing the same thing.
Someone at my gun club knew on of the higher ups at Savage Canada and in less than a month I had a brand new rifle that shot straight.
I believe that the scope base threads may have been tapped off center.

I would change the bolt knob for the tactical version. Midway usually has them for around $30.
I’ve never changed the ball on the extractor but that’s a common upgrade.

Airguns Beating Rimfires

It looks like 11 PRS airgun competitors total in the U.S. Not more than one in any single state.

I doubt popularity of pcp's in PRS or NRL will ever catch up to that of rimfire.

What I'd really like to see is how well the very best 22rf shooters in these sports would do with a well tuned good running pcp vs there own 22rf in a bigger match.

Airguns Beating Rimfires

Lets not forget that 22lrs are just fun to shoot
and putting up with their zany behaviour....
Lets us say...builds character...:LOL::ROFLMAO::love:
Man if you think 22rf's are zany then just own a pcp air rifle for a while and you'll learn what finicky really is. Though some pcp's are just about trouble free and others can be a PITA.

It's mostly the match 22rf ammo cost that drove me away from shooting mine more often but also I can shoot the pcp's on my property.

One pcp I have I swage 4400, 22 cal, 42gr, slugs for $165 and it'll outshoot my Anschutz 22rf at 50Y using match ammo. I shot my best 100Y group with this air rifle slug gun vs my Anschutz.

22 cal Slug/lead bullet BC's

Man what you stated is right on the mark! It's pretty insane no one has built a super stout pcp repeater yet. The potential is already present for pcp's to out do 22rf using current slug designs and as a bonus super low SD too.

I've already mentioned it here on SH but those 25 cal Altaros 60gr are noticeably superior in the wind at longer distances than 22rf standard velocity because of the .245 G1 BC they have. In windier conditions I can stay on the steel with these more whereas not so much with 22rf.
Firearms wise at long range a loose comparison could be like a 223 using 77's/22rf vs a 6mm Dasher using 105's/60gr Altaros slugs.
I have seen you say that about those Toros. I loved your comparison to the awesome 22LR you have. That is crazy how good they can be at that distance. We need Mike N to make a repeater!
