    G barrels are no joke

    You obviously missed @Ex E6 and his (20) shot group at 278 yards in 18-21MPH winds brother. With an Aero build and 129gr hunting bullets no less. Those semi-autos are NO JOKE. See page 83 of the 6.5 Creedmoor load page, post 4,148 and then into page 84 for the hilarity.

    I guess hassling Vets in wheelchairs, then shooting them is now sport in Seattle.....

    Yeah, it took two idiots to complete this dance. One got a hole in his chest, the other will get the hole in his ass reamed out for about a decade.

    What would be a slight step up from .

    Isn't Teslong a borescope company? I mean, it is, and I own one. So did I prove someone wrong here?

    Show me your McMillan a6 and a5

    Almost 5 years later, I hope you still have this rifle man.

    “Glowie is now following you “

    I just gave up a GS-14 position in the beltway and moved far, far into the country - where I make nothing, see nothing, and hear nothing, and am 100% happier. Kids pray at lunch at schools, they fly the Christian flags, and we don't observe MLK day. I should probably shut up now before I get...

    “Glowie is now following you “

    I mean, it isn't like you displayed the kind of behavior that brings attention... :LOL: A dude could have three testicles, and one of them randomly lights up and plays music... and he'd still be less conspicuous in public than a lot of your posts man. Time to rename and share 54K links to...

    @6:05 - 6:45 Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. That's going to get Mr. White dude some years of confinement in WA state.

    Who wants to boycott 3 shot group reviews & reviewers?

    98% of content creators want to be able to shoot for a living, so they'll put out whatever is necessary to get the "like, share, and subscribe, or consider following me on Patreon". I tired of all the "INSANE" rifle builds, shot groups, and performance review click bait pretty quickly. I do...

    Powder compacting when seating bullets.

    Compressing a load has always made my seating depth vary by a few additional thousandths. It can also lead to a more pronounced ring around the bullet from the seating stem (which rarely affects accuracy as much as you think it would). Also, as stated above sometimes the bullet can actually...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Handguns...show 'em

    Out if curiosity man, because I'm starting to look into comp'd pistols too... How much more report/blast are you getting with the comp?

    Why do people load so hot?

    Why not collect the rest of, and more relevant data? That's like punching your load into your powder thrower and not measuring the result. I don't do it to "make comments", I do it so I know what I'm working with. Or, just don't measure anything and keep on keeping on. You do you.

    10 second showdown

    I like drills, and think that they are a good tool for improving yourself *in very specific areas. Bonus that you have a way to measure your improvement. I did my fair share of (basic) pistol stuff when I was a (basic) pistol and rifle marksmanship instructor. Nothing however improved my...

    Why do people load so hot?

    Definitely not going to 'poo-poo' on your data man, as I appreciate your comparison. However, I found years ago that case weight is surprisingly not as good an indicator of volume as I would have thought. H2O capacity has been the way I turned to about 15-20 years ago for my layman's approach...

    Show yer Peacemakers, folks!

    As stated above, no speed loader ability. The fastest design is going to be the S&W model 3 and its variants (Schofield, Russian etc...). You got to at least eject all five cartridges at once, and with practice can do that with one hand. You want fast, you carry another gun.

    Show yer Peacemakers, folks!

    Ca. 2007 in the great chambering of .45LC. It is a Colt, but sad to say that there are/were several other manufacturers that made a better product.

    Camera - not game.

    I think a lot of deer behavior ("spookiness") is going to be based off of hunter pressure. ***** I don't know of any real-time camera setups that will notify you as fast as a Ring doorbell etc..., but that doesn't mean they don't exist. Most of us 'poors' that use cell cameras (me included)...

    Why are AR15s so difficult to shoot for the average shooter?

    Without doing a ton of research into it again. Lock time for an AR is often more than DOUBLE that over a bolt action rifle. That means twice as much recoil anticipation (shouldering) during the lock time process, twice as much sympathetic manipulation with other fingers, twice as much flinch...

    Why are AR15s so difficult to shoot for the average shooter?

    ^ This. While the rest is also true, flaws in fundamentals really rear their head with the additional lock time and heavier trigger. You will see more disparity over time between an average AR shooter who progresses into a good one, than you will with an average bolt gun shooter who progresses...

    Does anyone else get frustrated reloading

    My 199 pieces of Alpha 6GT brass (and 1 piece of now 6BRA - Alpha 6GT brass) understand the frustration.
