78 year old man beaten up over a parking spot

Login to view embedded media

By an off duty cop.
I think it’s worth more points to abuse the elderly when not on the clock- more edgy more “sheepdog”.

I love the part when the old man said “he falsely accused me of having expired tabs , he don’t know his ass from a home in the dirt”
And the other cop tells him to shut his mouth and not talk about their fellow deputies that way “act professional “ he talks him .

Mechanics of using a tripod as a bipod

Hi all,

I have seen many photos on this site where shooters are using a tripod like a bipod when in the prone position. I tried this today and it was stable but I do have a few noob questions to ask. Hoping someone with greater experience with this method can chime in, but all comments are welcome.
  1. How low should you set the tripod? I splayed the legs out to their maximum. This worked, but the rifle and my position were too low. It was uncomfortable. I intend to try it in a slightly higher position.
  2. Tripod head clamp - Do you fully lock the tripod head? I use an Anvil. If yes, how do you fine-tune the rifle position to get on target? If no, how tightly do you close the clamp?
  3. Rear bag use - Provided the height of the rifle is similar to the height when using a bipod, you could still use a rear bag. However, with the Anvil locked, there was no real need to. The butt was pretty stable.
  4. Loading - I didn't think this was necessary, but my shoulder was up against the butt of the rifle to keep the recoil under control.
  5. What else am I missing?
I was using this to shoot groups at 100 yards. I could see that this would be more practical when shooting steel from prone. They are larger targets, and some of the fine-tuning may not be necessary.

Thanks in advance

Optics Leupold MK4HD 4.5-18 w/mount

Selling a lightly used MK4HD 4.5-18x52 scope. Currently in a Vortex precision 20MOA cantilever mount with diving board mount. It has the PR2-MIL reticle.

The scope has seen very little use, was initially intending on using it on my practical precision/DMR rifle, but lately have been running a 1-10 LPVO instead. Glass is still perfect, no damage or even signs of use on the exterior.

Asking $1150 shipped, for scope and mount (would like to keep them together if possible)

Would trade for/towards (can add cash on my end)

Tuesday SCOUTS will hear the case of FBI raiding wrong home


Way back in 2017- so thing have only gotten worse since .

The home owners attorneys will argue that they have a right to be safe in their home and a right to compensation and a right to sue when a gang threw bombs in their home and pointed guns at her kids and arrested them all - while being at the wrong address.

The Feds will argue that matching numbers is very difficult and the peons have no right to be safe in their homes and in reality everyone in the peon class is a criminal it just may take some creative evidence collection to prove it . So if a gang bearing a letter of Marquis throws explosives in your home by mistake - shut the fuck up and take it swine .

6GT or Dasher Brass from 22-250?

Hi Team.
Has anyone here sized down then fireformed 22-250 in 6 Dasher or GT? I'm about to do a big build for my and my girl, problem here is brass is VERY hard to find and sporadic, and $280 per 100... mental. Also I hunt a fair bit and plan to use the dasher or GT but I will be forever searching for brass if it falls out the window. I would really like to know if anyone has done this... or... if you are at home and have a few spare 22-250 cases and GT or Dasher die would you mind running one through and let me know your results?
Thanks guys,
Jim

Call to Excel coders for FX True ballistic to GRT

Looking for someone who can code some excel here folks, I want an easy way to import FX true ballistic data to GRT, right now I'm feeding them in by hand one by one. Hoping someone here can help? GRT Can import a bunch of different CSV formats but sadly not FX, but it can do labradar and others. Maybe just a "lookup" function but I suck with excel. Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
RJ

Real gunsmiths chime in.

To the professionals out there, not the shade tree guys like myself, y'all tell me if I'm on the right track.

Some time ago I built myself my first rifle. Trued up my action to the best of my abilities and chambered my first barrel. It shoots pretty decent. Half moa is the norm with minimal load development, and it's shot a few in the. 3xx range.

The problem is, when I chambered it I got some reamer chatter toward the end of the chambering process, and I failed to notice it until I test fired it. It's very minimal, but you can feel it in the fired cases. And you can see it in the chamber now that it has a few hundred rounds on it. Probably more like 5-600.

But it shoots good so why mess with it? Well, #1 its not right, and it's bugged me since day one. And I think it's probably going to lead to erosion in the neck due to it not sealing like it should when fired. And #2, probably the main reason, I want to learn how to fix my mistake.

So here's where I'm at. Long ago, the smith that used to due my work for me, may he rest in peace, had told me he had one chatter one time. He had called brownells and was talking to them about it and they told him a process to follow to get it to clean up.

He said brownells told him to take a cotton/flannel cleaning patch and fold it in half and make a small cut with a pair of scissors in the middle, and to slide it over the reamer to the neck/shoulder junction and take a light cut. Repeat the process until it cleaned up. He said he only had to do it once. I forget the depth of cut he said he took.

So that's where I'm at. Am I headed down the right path ? What spindle speed should i run ? I'm here to learn, feel free to tell me if I'm screwing up or if there's another way I should go about it please let me know.

I already moved the shoulder, the breach face, and the bolt recess forward .062" and my witness mark on the barrel and reciever lined up perfect.

Also, I picked up a reamer stop off of LRH, and before I moved the shoulder and everything forward, I slid the reamer in and adjusted the stop to the breach face. Then I added .005" just to make sure I didn't go too deep.

Here's the setup.
