    Are 230 A-tips holding together?

    They have shot well at 100 yds while load testing but when I stretched them out a little ways they did some very strange things. I haven't watched them in the spotter myself but on a few occasions they just made a very hard turn & didn't hit a 4' target at 600yds. Ladder test. At around 2900fps...

    Are 230 A-tips holding together?

    Haven't done a lot of testing but when they go above about 3000fps they fall apart after a few hundred yards. Like take a hard turn & don't hit anywhere we can see. They don't like my lhgt barrel.

    Are 230 A-tips holding together?

    I'm pushing them at 2920fps & have no issues. The 220 Berger at 3000 is another story...

    Dawson Raider 5

    I just finished refinishing the edge to a near perfect mirror finish. I just got some diapaste so I tried it out with the strope. It's primarily my hunting knife so I'll try to post how it performs. I do know that a lot of hair on my arms will need to regrow. It does shave pretty well. 😍

    Dawson Raider 5

    Wanted to post up my new hunting/ all purpose knife I jut got. It's a Dawson Knives Raider 5 in the new Magnacut steel. G10 black/red skins & has a hand applied hamon on the blade. They claim it is differentially hardened like a samurai sword. It arrived pretty sharp but after I worked it with...

    PDA for Cold Bore

    It's OS is windows mobile 2003 2nd edition. Between the ram & rom it's supposed to have 128mb of memory. I don't know anything about the rest of the specs. Is ARM based ?? No clue. Is 64mb ram + 64mb rom is that total memory? Also it currently has FFS III on it. Will that take up enough to make...

    What is an exceptional group at 1 mile?

    Safran/ Vectronix Terrapin-X *** Update***

    I've used mine with snow on the ground & while snowing. Got great returns when it wasn't snowing. While snowing it wasn't much better than my Kilo2500. Readings were dependent on how hard it was snowing. Usually 30-35yds irregardless of anything else. My Bushnell binos work much better in rain...

    Recommend a Burbon

    Well I bought a bottle of Evan Williams (the regular stuff) yesterday & had a couple pours after dinner. Pretty smooth & kinda spicy. Close but not exactly what I'm looking for. I'd like more spice flavor. So of the bottles recommended that I can afford what should I try next? So far I've not...

    Recommend a Burbon

    The proof thing may be it. I can handle 110 proof Makers Mark cask strength but as I've gotten older I prefer it smoother. I also drink it neat. If I need to add something to it then I'll just have a cocktail. I used to know an old man from Kentucky that made shine. His was fairly strong but was...

    Recommend a Burbon

    Thank you everyone. I'll look for some of the recommendations but I'm sure a lot won't be available in my AO. And some are going to be way over my budget. Some I've already tried. I liked the flavor of Angels Envy but it had a fair bite. Same with Bulleit, Buffalo Trace, & Makers Mark. Tasts...

    Recommend a Burbon

    Ok. Since I can't seem to find the earlier burbon thread I want you burbon snobs to recommend me a burbon to try given these parameters. I like how smooth Basil Hayden is but I really like the flavor of Four Roses & Bulleit. I'm looking for something spicy but very smooth. Preferably under $60...

    Bigfoot, real or product of attention seeking looser?

    I have heard howls in the Pasayten Wilderness that I couldn't explain. I've also found 3 trees in a teepee. These trees were about 30' tall evergreens stripped of branches & were plunged into the ground point 1st with the root balls up. They had been ripped from the ground. There were no signs...

    FB? Why on earth would you use them? I won't use FB under any circumstances. If all the tutorials are there I'll manage without them & figure it out myself.

    I went through all the inputs from a very good days dope @ 1879yd & had to adjust the DC up to .625 to get a match up with known dope. I'm not new to ballistic solutions. I have everything from FFS to Genesis to the Shooter app. I'll continue to test this app out & see if it pans out with...
