    CQ Brown axed…

    I was but a kid (many, many years ago) when I heard that line of BS for the first time, and even then I recognized it for what it was - propaganda. I grew up in the Deep South, and we had plenty of “diversity”, but it was not a strength. For the most part, the diversity part was also the...

    Kash Patel tapped to head ATF

    Well, then someone needs to explain this better to them, because they sure don’t think that way.

    Pope Death Watch... WITH A PRIZE!!! Quart of Maple Syrup to the winner!

    Yes, article is linked in post 139 ("mild" kidney failure). @UKDslayer has a great point if they're using aminoglycoside antibiotics for a Gram-negative infection because they can damage the kidneys, but it also could be completely physiological due to hypoxia from the lung damage, since the...

    Precision Rifle Gear Tango Innovations FIRE4000 WMLRF Initial Impressions

    I wave it, like in the manual, never have spun it but my friends spin theirs. It wouldn’t fit in my case if it had a lanyard on it for spinning, so I wave it. I don’t know how you’re supposed to get away without doing one or the other though, unless you can keep it in the shade and out of...

    Precision Rifle Gear Are 147’s still blowing up?

    I never had either one blow up. The 140 shot great for me. When the 147 came out, I compared them side by side (factory loads). The 147 shot even smaller groups at 100 and 1000 yds than the 140, and kept the same velocity and even the same 100yd zero. I was excited, but then I took them out to...

    To Arbor Press or not?

    ...while you are throwing the powder for the next round. My IP trickler is done with the next charge at about the same time the AMP is finishing the seating on the previous round, so my hands are in constant motion, never really waiting on anything: Pour a finished charge into a case, set a...

    To Arbor Press or not?

    I have been doing this for a while during every seating session, usually only 10-20 rounds at a time - just what I plan to shoot the next day (I have my own range, and shoot about 3x/wk, so I feel I learn more from multiple short sessions in many different conditions than one long session in...

    The cartels assassinated AT LEAST 3 dozen candidates for various offices in the last election cycle (ie 2024 alone). You can bet the ones who got elected are on the side of the cartels, because: a) They wouldn't have survived to be elected, or b)They know they won't survive even now if they...

    Another plane crashed, but in Canada this time

    I see what you did there. As for the approach, it looks like there was no attempt to arrest the descent. Wind shear, sudden mechanical/electronic failure, or pilot error.

    300 Norma Mag

    Ok. I'm running 78.1gr Retumbo in the PRC with the 230, and 81.0gr in the Norma (not Improved) with the 245, both are 27" AI barrels.

    300 Norma Mag

    With a 245? Best I can do is 2895 with a 230 in my AI factory-barrel 300PRC. I can manage about the same (2900) with a 245 in the factory 300NM barrel, and it's on the hot side. Tell us more about your 300PRC load.

    300 Norma Mag

    Loaded 0.035 off the lands. CBTO = 2.725 using Area 419 .308 comparator. I do not have a COAL handy because I never measured it, but they fit in an AI AXMC mag.
