I was just listening to Dick Dale the other day. Talented guy.

Not surf music but from the same time...And the attitude we grew up with.

Texas has a bunch of fucking morons running it. Greedy builders, greedy politicians they are ALL criminals! They seem to believe they are geniuses in their designs of the current economic and demographic models. Its real aggravating to watch.

EDIT: if y'all wanna see just how fkn stupid it is down here. Just look into the amount of carwashes these idiots are building.

This is the way indeed!

@ELR researcher idk which client of Warner’s you were referring to earlier, but they are/were also publically building custom actions and maybe other components for a group out west that were doing a 14.9mm wildcat based on 20mm and using a very long custom Flatline bullet.

@Burpfire I think you misunderstood me, I’d be talking to Warner about building a 20mm gun, not trying to buy someone else’s wildcat project.

Do you have any hellfire 223/6mm brakes and 1/2 thread adapters left?

Barrel installed today. Been so busy it seems ever since it got here. Hopefully get to shoot it soon. Both .003 and .004 shim felt right. No way to measure though if anyone has any tips. I left the .004 in it.

Ttt

On a serious note, it seems like a bullet design is a way bigger factor because its only going to do so much in the first few inches regardless of how much energy it's carrying. What bullets are you shooting?

The reality is that the Beach Boys were a lot more than a "Pop Group." What Brian Wilson did with Pet Sounds ranks as some of the most incredible sound engineering of the rock era.

With Pink Floyd, Vangelis, Phil Collins, even the Beatles (screw you Yoko) for making sound with surgical precision.

While early Beach Boys may have been just some fun, twangy surfer music... they evolved into some of the most incredible soundscapes ever created. Watch the film I mentioned above. Until I saw it, I had no idea.

The ELDX is a looong bullet, being a low drag design. This is the likely reason for the perceived large discrepancy in coal.

This is why I never, ever do Zoom meetings. Because General Sherman spends most of his time trying to figure out how to broadcast his junk.

Good Intel, thank you! I'll grab one for sure.

Case in point

The Left and their braindead worshippers don’t care if it’s a lie. They do this all day, every day. Every “noose” that gets reported and gobbled up by the Fakestream Media turns out to be a staged lie, but they never retract or correct. Many people still believe Juicy was assaulted in “MAGA Country”.

Norma golden target 130s are it for me for practice ammo. They shoot tight, SD/ES isn't great but for $1.1 ea they do good.

One of the first concerts I saw was The Beach Boys, because my folks thought it was a nice safe place to go.

Always loved their music, though I was more of a Southern Rock fan. Who could 'not' love the Beach Boys.

The film Love and Mercy was a revelation for me... I'd never realized the extent to which they (in particular Brian Wilson) went to perfect sounds and really create stuff that I thought of as 'surfer music' and just another ditty.

An utterly brilliant (and troubled) mind. Genius, however, often comes in troubled packages.

The Beach Boys and Jan and Dean both created a ton of music that I still enjoy. I mean... hard to be sad while listening to surfer music. Even the Sloop John B. Which if you listen closely is a really deep dive into some shit... Is a fun song.

What a week... Frederick Forsyth and Brian Wilson. Both utterly at the top of their games of literature and music.

That said, Brian Wilson had a lot of demons. And maybe he has been released from them. Some with demons shoot up schools or have a rape closet. Brian Wilson turned his demons into some of the greatest music of the 20th Century.

I hope you find the peace you deserved in your lifetime, sir. If it helps, you made millions happy with your music. Maybe that takes some of the torment away.
