Are you on Apple or Android?

I am on Android with version 1.1.4 and not seeing any updates.

Military with blow up dolls?, surely there must be some camp followers around.
What kinda place they running there anyway.

Our shop once gave a blow up doll as a gag gift to a retiring Master Sargent .
His wife showed up before anyone could grab that box. Ooops

In terms of the best product from Loctite for retention of cylindrical parts - 620 is good, but is 660 better? It is significantly higher viscosity, and has about twice the gap filling ability as well. For those of you who have a really loose fit, it is actually designed for retaining shims too.

I have used it, but I also haven't done the extensive testing others have here. Everything I assembled with it shot very well. And then again I have assembled uppers with only grease and they shot well too. Probably placebo effect.

Be careful what you wish for.......my very first 6gt was a kreiger 236 bore 5gr 7.5tw, I ran 108bt Bergers at 2950 with rl16 and it was seriously a consistent 1/4 moa 10shot group every time on paper at 400y. One of the 3 most accurate barrels I've had ever. All was cool till bout 900 rds, then all a sudden psi hit, bolt lift ejector everywhere, I did the abrasive on bronze brush and Milwaukee trick, cleaned that barrel for days, it never did recover, had to drop a full node to get it to shoot again. I will never shoot another 236 bore 6mm barrel.

We're side-tracking, so my apologies to the OP. I'm actually at 1K even right now... although I do a decent cleaning at every 100 rounds, and clean to bare metal every 200 (to include the carbon ring). Still no issues yet *IF* it is even a .236 bore. I probably won't even play with that barrel again until next year.

Like I said, I bought a Bugholes advertised .237 Krieger ^. However, I also bought a .264, 1:8 Brux blank from them once too... and when I was cleaning that barrel, noticed that the lands were very much indeed - 5R . It shoots, it is the right twist and contour, the price was the same, and I don't intend on bitching about it either. I'll just always be a tad cautious on what is advertised. And yes, I've purchased barrels from Bugholes since, and will continue to do so if they have what I want in stock. Crap happens.

Ladderes two different projectiles today for my SP10. These are shot at 125 yards (from my porch )

#1 was the Barnes 150 grain tsx-fn, these are flat nose meant for 30-30. I had a bunch so tried to make some reduced recoil loads for my wife. Only one shot well at 1.08" but they did not feed reliably (had 2 that ftf'd) and seemed to like a lot of jump.

#2 was the 155 grain Sierra TMK, now these were a different story. All the loads shot well but the last shot best. It was 44.9 grains of Varget, all using factory primed Federal brass. I stopped here due to ejector swipes on the brass.

It is not accidental. This march towards collapse of the “free-ish western society” has been carefully planned for long time. The powerbrokers yearn for a return to the dark ages for most “useless eaters”. Satan is not imaginary, and is not dumb.

I would think that would be an awful stretch but I think the only way you get a useful answer is if you plug your data into a ballistic calculator and compare it with the bdc subtensions

Click to expand...

Well, I already did that. Although it admittedly involved a bit of extrapolation with the velocities, what I came up with tells me that the BDC in that model of Razor will be useless to me.

I was just hoping that maybe someone out there came up with something workable. Oh, well. I guess I just saved myself $1600 and the NX8 gets to carry on.

Water.

The “electrolyte replacement” mix-ins all taste like shit and are unnecessary unless you are doing sustained cardio between stages. Let’s face it, shooting is basically a sedentary activity. During an 8 hour match day, you might be mildly active for 20 minutes.

Water. Even shooting positional PRS stages all day just doesn't require much work.

Had a friend that picked up what seemed to be a nice young girl at the local club. (Back in the '80's and yes she was over 21) Well, they eventually had sex. Something happened to her at home at her parents house. They found her passed out in the shower. My friend soon developed an infection on his member which caused blisters that broke and left a divot in the shaft and was slowly eating away. Nasty shit.
He went to the Doc and and he said that he hadn't seen anything like that since Vietnam. I remember my friend saying it was Shankroid. The girl had a bad infection of it. YUK!!!!!!!

Careful, you going to get the leg humpers come in and says that everyone that has had one broken torqued it on wrong. And Mile High has great CS and will take care of you.

I dont doubt Mile High's CS, but that has nothing to do with what I call the Mercedes syndrome, where one feels superior, and thus feels like their products, which arent any better than their competitors are just worth more because it has THEIR symbol on them. There's no way a 600 dollar spur is 300 dollars better than a good 300 dollar mount lol.

ALTHOUGH, there is some creedence to the claim of over torquing. I've worked as a car mechanic and bike mechanic and fairly experienced amateur gun smith for quite a while, and you'd be REALLY REALLY surprised at the special tools MOST mechanics or smiths DONT possess. It grinds my gears soo bad I cant stand it. If theres a special tool for that job and instead you're using a punch and a hammer, I'm going to have a come apart. Use the right tool! And with that, I know a ton of people that dont own torque wrenches lol. I wouldnt be surprised if those ring screws were torqued on to 40 lb/in whatsoever.

The real question becomes: what power/influence does the EU have over the US to get it to commit to this? None of us have that answer, we simply aren't in that circle. The other option they have is to extend the war until another president in four years that they hope is more sympathetic to the cause. That's if their economies don't crash before then.

Click to expand...

I think the real danger lies in an EU nation committing a very brash and provocative act to force a wider conflict, out of desperation. Forcefully suck us in, because NATO and all of that.

IMO, NATO has become a death cult with a desire to self manifest a war. The smart thing would be to get out of it yesterday.

New reticle? or same old ffp reticle that don’t work on 4x?

Click to expand...

It’s a FFP scope so as any it will not be the best at the lowest power as on any of them but if you buy a 4-24x scope to use it mostly at 4x then you bought the wrong scope. It can be used as a standard crosshairs at 4x.

"European 'Reassurance Force' In Postwar Ukraine"

That is soooo stupid of them.
A European ' (ANYTHING) Force' in Postwar Ukraine is the same fucking thing as having a NATO Force in Ukraine.

Do they not understand that this is the crux of why Russia escalated/invaded in the first place.

Typical EU fucktard mentality.
They are just itching to have their faces bloodied.


Half of the Hemisphere is set to implode already. Like lemmings to a sea side cliff, western Europe is leading the race to the cliff's edge.
Between unlimited migration, low birthrate of the native population and liberal/socialist governments, they are feeding and perpetuating their own cultural collapse. At the same time, they have allowed their military to dissolve along with losing already difficult to retain leadership.

The inevitable is easy to foresee. It is not going to be pretty.

The EU is salivating at the prospect of a hot war with Russia. The leaders of the EU are speaking like deranged lunatics, it's wild to watch.

The world is led by arrogant idiots.

Oh and dont get a spurh. Wayy too many reports of them breaking, and NO scope mount on EARTH is worth 600 dollars even if it were made from solid Rhodium. Any man that feels his scope mount is worth 600 dollars can go fuck himself; It's a scope mount, not a part on an engine used by NASA.

Maybe it's just me, but that video shows nothing useful. It looks like it's loose and floppy in the chassis. I can go loosen my action screws and take the same video.

As you're the one with hands on, either take a decent video, or tell us which chassis is made of rubber.

Just drives me nuts all of the "we don't want to trash the competition, but we'll complain about them and make sure the community knows to use my preferred brands".

Yes. I have private complaints about some significant members of the industry. I do not air them publicly. That is a choice. If I did, I would make names and show clear data about my issues.
