    Geissele GFR Maritime Reconnaissance 6mm arc write up and review

    Accuracy has been around half MOA or just barely larger for me. SD has been in the 13-15 range. I haven't played with the 106 Atips yet. Eventually I will get some to try when I actually get to loading for this. What velocity are you getting with the 106 TAP?

    Geissele GFR Maritime Reconnaissance 6mm arc write up and review

    My 20" Proof with the new lots of Hornady 108 ammo is doing around 2660-2670. My buddy has the same barrel and we are getting identical velocities. Both barrels still have low round counts and are not broken in completely. Unsure if they will speed up a little or not. I just haven't had time to...

    Cure For Bullying - Share Your Stories

    During high school I had a rich kid that used to talk a lot of shit about me and to me. I was fat but more like dad bod fat. To him and his friends they made me sound like I was 400 pounds. I wrestled at 189 pound class and was 6'3" tall. So not exactly morbidly obese. I was the poor kid at this...

    Plus the air smells funny there. The first time I was there for work I stepped off the plane and asked "What the fuck is that smell?" Another passenger told me it was the smell of dead bodies due to all the street violence. It gave me high expectations when I knew it would be midnight before I...

    Batteries and storage - Looking for ideas

    I just keep a mini tackle tray in my range bag. They are small enough to not take up much space, and big enough to fit any batteries my optics or shooting related electrical devices need. You can mix and match the dividers to get the right sizes you need. Something like this...

    My solution to stiffen up Atlas bipod cant

    It's a tightly woven fiber type washer usually. The tighter the weave the less grease can get into the material. That's where you need to blot the washer. Grease will not hurt it or cause the washer not to hold. We use grease on our washers to help make the drag smoother which usually means a...

    My solution to stiffen up Atlas bipod cant

    You can just wipe or blot the grease off the carbon washers with a blue shop towel. We use them in several of the reels we manufacture. There are several different grades and types of carbon washers.

    Gunsmithing Recommendations for best cleaning chemicals - bonus if non-toxic

    We use ultra sonic machines to clean anodized and painted aluminum fishing reel parts daily at my job. They are suspended in SS baskets in a solution of Simple Green Crystal and water. The solution is also heated. If the mixture is too strong it can start to remove the dye from anodized parts...

    Lexis Nexis

    I understand how OnStar works and what it can access. Hence my comment about disabling the connection from the antennae. It still needs a signal to function. Electronic power steering has been around for a while in some vehicles. Not super common but it has been used here and there. I think...

    Lexis Nexis

    OBD2 was about emissions and to standardize the codes and data for all manufacturers. Ford and GM were the primary brands they used because of the data provided by each. Things like Fuel Trim and the codes. It's essentially a hybrid of the two systems with a standardized code list. They were...

    NY Gov. Sending National Guard to the Subway LOL

    When I traveled in Europe in the spring of 1999 every train station in German and Austria had K9 police and they were all armed with MP5's. Seemed pretty common in a lot of places in Europe to have armed police and mean ass dogs muzzled up at train stations.
