    80-100 million gun owners, plus family members and ex spouses. Yeah, that'll get done by next week latest. Just how many shrinks do they think are out there? Oh wait. That is the plan. Nobody gets approved.

    Shorting Silver?

    This! Read Selco. He spent a year of hell under siege during the collapse of Yugoslavia. If you're bartering with bullion or ingots, people suspect you have more and you will become a target. Not good. It's better to be the guy who is reduced to trading away his wife's wedding ring for...

    H1000 300WM case capacity issues.

    I ran into compressed loads with near maximum charges while doing OCW with H1000 and 300 grain A-Tip in 338LM. The last couple grains were definitely compressed. I didn’t observe any bullet creep but I loaded them the same week I went to the range, I targeted 0.010" short of magazine length (my...

    H1000 300WM case capacity issues.

    I wouldn't worry about a slightly compressed load, people do it all the time. The biggest concern is a hard maximum COAL. If you're loading right at max COAL or CBTO to fit in a magazine or avoid jamming lands with a maximum charge weight load, some folks have observed a compressed charge...

    Is that the new sign language reference for the pretender Veep?

    No doubt she does. The real question is, what hand sign will she use for Harris?

    So what happens if...

    The enemy of my enemy is still my enemy, I just choose to defer action against them only so long as they are degrading my primary enemy's capabilities and not targeting me. Assume that they are doing the exact same calculus and the first one to switch focus has the advantage.

    Inconsistent seating depth. What’s my problem?

    My precision reloading is in .338LM. I am using Hornady Match Grade dies. I'm perfectly happy, especially at the price point. I am using the 285 ELD-M, which gives good accuracy. I took a box of projectiles and measured length and base to ogive and found slight dimensional variations which...

    Ruger Precision 338 LM

    I'd love to get that accuracy at those velocities with the 285 ELD-M out of my RPR. Please share your recipe. I've used H1000 and Retumbo so far. Groups start opening up and point of impact starts wandering before I see signs of pressure.

    Hello from AZ

    Welcome from South Carolina. That RPR is an expensive beast to feed. Reloading definitely helps. I justify it by telling myself that I save $2.50 every time I pull the trigger on my reloads. Pretty soon I'll be a hundredaire.

    Ruger Precision 338 LM

    I've got the same rifle but it's two years ago so it might be Gen2. My rail is 30 MOA and I anticipated trouble with a scope with only 56 MOA vertical travel but I managed a 200yds zero. Pretty much bottomed out. That leaves almost the whole travel for vertical adjustment. When you start...

    Emotions are high...let's not assassinate Ferdinand again

    The professor missed a golden opportunity to stimulate some real discussion. He should have asked his student to define "productive societal change," then challenge this woke student and demand she defend it. Not to mention ask why an obvious Marxist is even taking a business class. And why that...

    After the 20th, adjusting the ugliness on here

    I'm sure it is and I'd love to find out, but I've had to trim expenses to include only absolute necessities. The only dependants passed a DNA test to make the cut.

    After the 20th, adjusting the ugliness on here

    The two money quotes! Anyone paying attention sees the wheels in motion already. I get where he is coming from. If it were my site, I'd let it be a bit more freewheeling for no other reason than to mess with the signal to noise ratio for those who monitor everything digital despite the dead...
