    Gun range rant

    Re: Gun range rant As long as it dies on the road (or from the road) it could be considered road kill right?

    Gun range rant

    Re: Gun range rant The reason I ask if you're from North Texas.... My brother in law from Amarillo gave me a call the sunday before you posted this. Said he finally got a chance to hit the range, but it was crazy crowded. He was itching to shoot his new Savage 300WM (with muzzle brake)...

    Rifle Scopes another set ?'s for scope mounting

    Re: another set ?'s for scope mounting A one piece base also makes the action more rigid. I've got a set of those Burris Rings, and they're ok. But, they aren't as good as the TPS rings I put on my 5R. The TPS rings weren't that much more expensive either. Good luck with the bike sell...

    10/22 Volquartson not chambering round

    Re: 10/22 Volquartson not chambering round Cleaned her out last night with some Bore Shine and a bronze brush. Looks clean anyway. Need to get some new mags to try her out. For some reason both of mine are sticking. Pop one round out, and the next hasn't moved up into position. Have to...

    10/22 Volquartson not chambering round

    Re: 10/22 Volquartson not chambering round Any recommendations on the best way to clean out the chamber? I'm wondering if pulling a patch through isn't really getting the crap off as much as its slicking it up a little. Bronze brush? Thicker patch? Just don't want to chance hurting the...

    10/22 Volquartson not chambering round

    Re: 10/22 Volquartson not chambering round I don't see any wear on the mag lips, but spring in the mag makes me wonder about it. Every now and then the spring will jam up inside the mag, leaving the next round below the lips. I'll smack the mag and the spring will pop the round up into...

    attack this noob, 5 questions

    Re: attack this noob, 5 questions 36 grains of 4064 is on the low end, but it is safe to fire (as long as everything else is in spec)....at least according to the Sierra manual it is. I actually loaded two up for a ladder test a couple weeks ago. Shooting the 5R as well. The node on mine...

    do You Spank Your Kids

    Re: do You Spank Your Kids On South Park they called in the Dog Whisperer. Might be worth checking into for someone with uncontrollable kids.

    10/22 Volquartson not chambering round

    I searched around and couldn't come up with anything, but here's what I got. I built this gun up 8 years ago or so. Its a Ruger 10/22 receiver with Volquartson trigger guts, and a Volquartson barrel. For the most part I only shot Remington Subsonics out of it. Occasionally it would get some...

    do You Spank Your Kids

    Re: do You Spank Your Kids I got spanked very few times as a kid. Last time was in 5th or 6th grade. Probably for lying. But, every time, I knew full well why I was getting what I was, and it was never a beating. We have a 1 year old boy, and a girl to be here at the end of March. At...

    NOT a sniper by pay grade or anything special

    Re: NOT a sniper by pay grade or anything special Been chasing a deer all last season. Named him Shank Bitches. He was a mean old looking buck pushing 160. Good deer. Lots of trail cam pics of him, and in every picture he looked cocky as hell. 1st morning of gun season he stayed behind...

    Ladder Test Question

    Re: Ladder Test Question Squarenut - the two sighter shots were a normal load I had for this gun (41gr IMR 4064, 175 SMK). After confirming those, I adjusted down (only elevation. The next three shots were way under powered, and threw right. There were differences in the load make up...

    Ladder Test Question

    Re: Ladder Test Question I'll try and get something measured up this weekend. I've discarded the original target, but given that the paper sheets were standard 11 1/2" tall, I'm sure I can come up with a close measurement between shots.

    Ladder Test Question

    Re: Ladder Test Question Interesting side note here, yet related. Loads 36-37.5 actually gradually slowed down from 35.5, and started rising again after 38 (I think. Don't have my data in front of me.) And, it was consistent (within 10 fps or so) across each of the two identical ladder...

    What's your experience with ultrasonic cleaners?

    Re: What's your experience with ultrasonic cleaners? I picked one up a couple weeks ago when my tumbler bit the dust. I always hated popping the media out of the primer pockets anyway. I like it. It came with some cleaning solution (looks like soapy water to me), but it works good. I...

    Ladder Test Question

    Re: Ladder Test Question Had the same thing happen to me after the node around the 40-41 gr mark. Target was shot @ 300. I guess the node and barrel vibration would account for the shift left as well? After the first 3 at the bottom I moved shots to center, but they gradually shifted left...

    Anonymous Makes Biggest Play to Date

    Re: Anonymous Makes Biggest Play to Date Crap. That shouldn't be hard. Most music sucks anymore, and I haven't seen a movie worth the cinema fee in many years. Don't think it will go anywhere, or do anything, but it won't be hard for me.
