    USO TS-12 Mounting on a Ruger Ranch

    I am thinking about mounting a US Optics TS-12 on a Ruger Ranch 6.5 Grendel. I can see this might be difficult because it is so short. I have seen a few pictures online of different mounting options. Using a riser and then rings to get it just high enough looked like it might work. Has...

    6.5 Grendel

    I was finally able to get out and shoot some groups to proof the load development so far. I think I am going to run with 28.0 grains of IMR 8208xbr with the 123 ST's. Loaded up 50 and will shoot some 5 and 10 round groups. Impressed with the Ruger Ranch thus far.

    6.5 Grendel

    It was virgin brass. The shoulder only blew out .006". This Ruger has a pretty tight chamber. The 123 SST was kissing the lands at 2.250".

    6.5 Grendel

    Started some load work up. Looks like I will settle in the 2380 range. Not bad for a light handy rifle. 2.240 OAL.

    Building a "precision" hunting rifle

    I really like it. It was pretty easy to install. I have a CTR stock on a T3x Lite and used a "stock pack" type cheek riser on it. I added layers of tape to get the height right. Still don't like they way it fits. That's why I ponied up for the Kalix.

    Building a "precision" hunting rifle

    This is where I ended up after trying to keep it light and have good ergonomics. Added the different angled grip and a Kalix Tecnik cheek riser. Rifle as it sits weighs around 9 pounds.

    Maggie’s Guys, I need some prayers sent

    Prayers sent. Do have them look into Keto. It has worked miracles for many. Check out Dr. Annette Bosworth on Youtube. She did a strict Keto diet for her mother who had terminal cancer.

    i'm using a Airlife breathing thingy to keep my lungs in shape and stave off pneumonia.. My boss asked if my dumb ass was still going to ride after this. my reply...yes. I will play it all by ear and listen to my docs.

    6.5 creed with a brake. Very little recoil. I was envisioning ground hunting with a tripod. I understand the healing process and plan to do no harm.

    Didn't think of a pistol. I may give that a try down the road a bit.

    The bike is fine I think...). I think it went over the top. Right radiator shroud is torn off. Haven't been able to inspect it any closer.

    It happened on a big double. Guy rolled it and turned left into me. My front tire hit his helmet and the next thing I remember is getting a shot of fentanyl. Thankfully I had just put on my Atlas neck brace. I think it saved my neck. Wearing the sling religiously.

    I had a pretty bad crash last weekend and shattered my collar bone, broke a few ribs, bruised my lungs and had a concussion that knocked me out for 25 minutes. I want to get ready for deer hunting but cant shoot or practice my normal right handed way. Should I try to work on left handed...
