When does the winning start?

.....No Way are they going to use Mil assets for this job.
I can confirm that Fed LE will use military aircraft when needed. Also military contracted ships under military control. In my day we used USMC, USAF, USA ships/pilots all the time. Also used SAT contract ships (Southern Air Transport) OCONUS.

Fuck that. What the fuck is tuna doing anywhere near a pizza? Fucking Minnesota
It’s actually a very Italian topping… I never heard of it until I went there, but they love that shit on their pizza.

And TBH, it’s actually pretty good on a thinner crust pizza with a white wine/garlic sauce vs. regular tomato-based pizza sauce.

Rules: Another not really pizza, pizza dinner tonight… “The Pig and Pear”

Bacon and sliced pears with garlic sauce, and some arugula on top; no cheese except for a little parmesan baked into the crust. Went a little overboard with the balsamic vinegar “drizzle” though! LoL

Remington 700 bolt marks on breech

Clearance could be a mile when locked up, but the bolt handle may be sitting pretty far back allowing contact on an empty chamber.
The marks are a non-issue. As long as the bolt isn't touching the barrel while in battery with a round in the chamber, what ever happens when cycling empty or dry firing doesn’t matter.

Lived for fourteen years in Minnesota and NEVER had tuna on my pizza there. In contrast had tuna in "hot dishes" all the time.
Someone probably had AI make it and it doesn't know the diffrence between pizza and casserole. Neither does Chicago. 🤣🤣🤣

Elk Hunting Rifles, What are you Using?

I pulled my tag and had to scramble to put something together because i didn't do the load development on my 6.5 saum yet. This is my long range gun that usually sits in a weighted MPA chassis around 25#s. I grabbed a used KRG here in the PX and shed 10#s. I was told by several hunting buddies that my 15# 300wm would be way too heavy. I did an elk hunt and hiked 16 miles in 2 days with that rifle and a full size RRS tripod. I had no issues with the weight. In fact the second day I carried my dad's 12# gun too because the hike was taking a toll on him. My only complaint was that the rifle was balanced in front of the mag, like most my rifles, and it didn't want to hang on the sling like an ass heavy rifle would. I wasn't too worried because I have done a handful of 2 day nrl hunter matches with my match gun a few ounces short of 16#s with no issues. I was able to shoot my elk at 763 yards with this setup and my shot his at 753 yards with it too
Makes sense. I didn’t realize mine was so heavy. We are limited to 16lbs here, so a shade under 15 was a little too close. I’m just waiting on the 24” carbon proof to put the new one together. The proof is almost (.3oz) as light as the factory barrel, so I’m anticipating 10.5lbs.

510 Whisper Build Advice (Stock/Bottom Metal/Magazines/Twist/Barrel Length)

My neck size is .537" plus or minus .001".
I understand everything you said and how the cartridge works. Absent a SAAMI spec the wikipedia numbers were all I had to go in. Adding up the bullet diam and the brass thickness didn't add up . Your 0.537" makes sense. The wiki 0.549 is an impossible number as its BIGGER than the bullet + unturned brass neck - which would be impossible to headspace. I don't have a cartridge or reamer in front of me yet but I knew something was off.

I already have a bullet swager as I've been buying as many M33 pulls as I can afford/store for the 50BMG guns. One of the big reasons I'm interested in 510 Whisper. I have the bullets. I have a VERS50 suppressor. I have the slow powders. I love 300BLK subs. I just need the big gun!
