    Gunsmithing Q: Brake vs bore diameter, how close is too close?

    If it is perfectly centered and aligned the way it should be, that 0.009" on each side is an awful lot for a bullet to yaw in the 2-3" of brake. If I could confirm the alignment, I think I would try it. Worst case you would shave your jacket a bit and get poor accuracy. A nice straight piece...

    (New) Ultimatum DeFacto action (Tikka T3) Barreled action+trigger deal

    I think it is so they can offer an AW magazine cut and maybe offer an easy path to 3.625" COAL for people who already have a chassis.

    Best chassis long range shooting

    I have a feeling that my American Rifle Company Xylo is going to do rather well. The MPAs have a good reputation. Ultimately I think a chassis that is set up for benchrest shooting will be the best but it might give you ergonomic problems if you don't have your rests.

    (New) Ultimatum DeFacto action (Tikka T3) Barreled action+trigger deal

    There are some features they should explain: Is there a chassis that takes AW magazines that this will fit? Which chassis will allow AICS short and long? I don't want to buy a SA chassis and then have to spend again when I move to a long action caliber. Is the Triggertech trigger using the...

    So what stock or chassis?

    Weird, I thought I saw that on the inlets but I haven't looked in several months. On the other hand, KRG should probably figure out how to make a Bravo style chassis with that 180 backbone. Savage is usually a budget rifle choice so an inexpensive chassis/stock makes more sense for that inlet.

    Still supprting the NFL?

    Watching the 49ers lose again was worth it. I don't think we saw the best of that KC QB. I think he's only going to get better. He might have more rings than Brady by the time he is done (if anyone cares about football in about a decade). I don't think I'm going to have anything to watch...

    No, I hope it's 21-0 before the end of the first quarter.

    So what stock or chassis?

    I think KRG makes the Bravo with a Savage inlet. That might bridge the gap between stock and chassis for you.

    What the hell just happened?

    Cartridge overall length is only important for fitting in your magazine. There are three measurements you need to know and load for. First your rifle headspace, this is measured with gauges, typically a GO and a NO-GO which will tell you that your rifle is within the specs for the cartridge...

    [Video] Police Snipers train for Super Bowl LIV

    As for calling up the guard, there are video cameras and cell phones these days, going through that chain probably takes 10 minutes if the video is good. Also, from what I hear, most large cities (maybe 500,000+) have military stockpiles that are remnants of WWII or the cold war but still kept...

    [Video] Police Snipers train for Super Bowl LIV

    Do you understand that a .50 wouldn't have stopped him? You would need a real anti-tank weapon. My point is that there are very few questions in local policing that are answered by a .50. Most of them could probably be answered with a .308 too. I don't know if you have shot a .50, I have and...

    By "what he is saying" do you mean playing the race card in a desperate attempt to remain relevant in a league that had passed him by? Just checking.

    [Video] Police Snipers train for Super Bowl LIV

    From what I recall, he offed himself after getting stuck, not by a SWAT sniper with a .50. If you want to prepare for that one, I think you need legit anti-tank weaponry. I don't know if I would want a local PD going there either. At some point, call in the National Guard instead of making a...

    The OFFICIAL 'Wuhan' Coronavirus outbreak information and tracking thread. NARRATIVE CHANGE. "Endemic, just like the cold". Cuomo regrets lockdown.

    The OFFICIAL 'Wuhan' Coronavirus outbreak information and tracking thread. NARRATIVE CHANGE. "Endemic, just like the cold". Cuomo regrets lockdown.

    Well, the news says there is a confirmed case in a neighboring city and by neighboring, I mean walking distance and I've been there 5 times in the last week. If this is as bad as I think it is, I'm probably screwed.

    Gun Case?

    Pluck foam can be very very bad. You spend a bunch of time plucking your inlet but it never is a good fit unless your gun is a brick with only 90° angles, then the first time you use it, you are going to probably tear out a bunch of cubes making your inlet go from ugly to real ugly. The stuff...

    Still supprting the NFL?

    I'll be watching. I grew up watching Joe Montana, Jerry Rice and Ronnie Lott on my home team 49'ers. Now I'm rooting for the Chiefs because fuck 'em.

    Gun Case?

    My commuter car is a compact hatchback. I can fit about a 48" internal case across the rear seat (barely) and the 52" case I have is a pain because I have to fold down the rear seats and load it diagonally. I haven't tried out the 49" case for fit yet but it is easy to run in to issues like...

    [Video] Police Snipers train for Super Bowl LIV

    Many police departments have a history of developing SWAT teams and buying armored vehicles and then justifying it by scheduling no-knock raids which they occasionally do on the wrong address or just to arrest Rodger Stone. Give a police department a .50 and what will happen? One use I can...
