If they can just keep a drummer around.

Based on the trailer, that is a major theme...

I think they were up to 11 dead drummers. So can't find a drummer for the reunion.

The only thing I don't like is that the fucking retard meathead Karl Reiner is in it and/or directing it. I hate to do anything that will put one red cent in that POS' pocket. Fucking Communist.

But Spinal Tap is one of the funniest movies ever made. And the world needs a satire of rock bands that are now 60 years old and on stage with oxygen tents and walkers. It's %$#@ing hilarious!

One of the best lines in a great movie (Almost Famous) was "Look do you think that The Rolling Stones are still going to be making records and doing concerts 10 years from now? You have to make money now. Today."

Even in 1984-ish... the idea that bands from the '60's and '70's would still be doing tours in 2025 was as alien as thinking that Fat Elvis would still be relevant in 1980.

Can't wait to see how they do this. And from the trailer, I think the 'final concert' is going to make the movie a bit like Sorcese's 'The Last Waltz" which was supposed to be about The Band. But was really about Scorcese. Because everything Scorcese did was about Scorsese. So the whole movie was a bit of a flop for The Band. Though it made Scorcese's career.

THAT is a film that deserves to be lampooned! Bigtime!

1100 yards today. Rifle shooting pretty dang good. A lot better than the phone is taking pics

I know one. She and her family wrote a bunch of letters to our congressman to get an interview.

The hard part is the competition. If you're not over a 4.0 with AP classes, you're already at the bottom.
She had a 4.25 GPA, lots of volunteer work, and still had to work her ass off to get in and maintain a good grade.

Thanks Mike,

So the question to everyone in general, also knowing how much good work I’ve seen by other custom builders and semi custom builders with very small staff, …

Why do they need 60?

Click to expand...

See my reply above yours.

I see the same overhyped members used every time a politician wants to bring in another company/employer. I’m not sure if they really want to believe those numbers or if they are really that gullible.

With that kind of investment and 60 employees, they will not be in business very long I am afraid.

It sounds like the typical pumped up numbers that companies and politicians use to garner tax breaks and to convince the tax slaves that it’s a good idea.

And you have a problem with a fellow using a wheelbarrow gun??? What’s 60 pounds here or there.

Back to the subject at hand.

Been using Atlas bipods on all my PRS rifles, no complaints but like others, might use it 2 or 3 stages on a typical ten stage match, both centerfire and .22lr. I see an Accutrak in my future, not because I have a real complaint against my Atlas bipods, but want to try something different.

In most, but not all situations, a good front bag can be decently steady and a lot easier to move from target to target.

However, Brenda has a couple of the higher end model Harris bipods on her two rifles. Theres a lot to like about the Harris. Not as versatile and much less convenient to change height, but they work well. (And cost less)

Pan, maybe two or three times in matches in the last two years. in the last two years.

Totally different game that has always had super heavy rifles. PRS style matches have not.

Does anyone know much about the 9.3x62? I'm wondering how it does in shorter barrels, down to 16". I can't find much info on velocity data. Thanks.

Check out the reloading pages and the medium bore section in the forum at accuratereloading.com. More than likely find all the info you need for that cartridge.

bmp. Will trade straight up for a KAC SR-30

Was shooting in an NRA 600 yard FTR match with my GAP Hospitaller .308. Was shooting the first string of the 2nd relay and the wind died down and I started hammering the x-ring (3" diameter). Had always wanted to get a clean 100 score for a 10-shot string and just missed the 10 ring by maybe 1/16" on my 3rd shot. It was right on the line but scored a 9. Don't have the target but kept my scorecard. Was still pretty happy with the 8x shots out of 10 but that 9 haunts me. This was the same match I got my first cold bore x-ring hit, which was another goal of mine.

I truly feel sorry for all of you who side with the enemies of America and God. If you could go to Israel and experience it for yourself I think you would be ashamed. But, you won’t, and will continue to spit bile from your keyboards. I will be praying for you, but…

“The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.”

Click to expand...

Thanks for your prayers but I see no bile, only one in you, who is so indoctriniated they cannot or will not learn.

Edit to add: You err in that I dont side with the ememies or America and God. Thats so amazingly arrogant to say I shouldnt even respond but....

I'm not anti Israel, not pro what ever they are, all of them put together arent enough for me to be anti them. I'm pro ME, but that doesnt stop me from observing nor speaking what I observe.

So take your self righteousness somewhere else.

@RAVAGE88 I’m curious, how many employees were on staff when you were part of the original Vudoo Gun Works

It varied, as some stayed longer than others, but in the 12 to less than 20 range.

I wonder if that applys to an individual. Lets say you had never donated to anything. Then you up and say,"I have $1000 I want to donate but I absolutely refuse to donate my money to any organization that supports Israel. I hearby boycott Israel."

I went with the PDP, and appreciate the input. I am not recoil sensitive, but my splits on a P30 40 sucked compared to most other guns I have run. Hell, I should just accept being old and stick to my trusty 1911s.

My nephew got into West Point. As a white male, he was able to get in with a letter of recommendation from his Congressional Representative. Fortunately, my brother married a smart woman who had a pretty good .gov job and new the route to go. My nephew has done well so far in his career.

As a former (enlisted) recruiter... Never, never, never go the enlisted route and hope to get into some sort of commissioning program *if you already have a degree. ROTC is a different beast, and a good option if one can afford that first year of college (and is competitive).

wrong. most American Zionists are fundamentalist Protestant Christians. some Jews are,some aren't. see above Graham et al. just a small sample but the Jews i have known don't qualify. the southern Baptists i know are Zionist for sure. Israel can do no wrong and must be supported in anything they do. kinda like the Rep party and congress in general.

I dont know htat you could call them Zionists, they're not that smart or that high in pecking order. Deceived, manipulated, idiots, might be more accurate.

Strange how many MRADs are in civilian hands with no reports of this happening. I would think Barrett is taking a hard look at redesigning their trigger; at least they are easy to swap.
