    Springfield 2020 barrel

    I just started playing with one and just finished making a barrel for one. Was kind of a pain because it's metric and my lathe won't do metric threads. Eventually planning on getting a CNC lathe but for now manual. I just finished threading the muzzle and crowning it earlier tonight. Hopefully...

    CHRONOGRAPH USE AND BASIC SAFETY

    I thought for most they just read other people's post and say books are stupid at least that was what I was told when asking if anyone had a book that had certain load data my two books didn't because I wanted to buy a book that did.

    Barrel wear Vs velocity/weight/energy

    Def not DOT. From what I was told mine was a Marine Corp Tow missile hauler. Bought it three years ago. I used to drive it once in a while. Then developed a battery issue (wouldn't hold a charge more than a few days. Then replaced both batteries with two new correct mil batteries and those...

    Barrel wear Vs velocity/weight/energy

    5 brand new tires. 2K miles and the fronts had uneven wear (slanted like waaaaay too much camber). I got lucky and got a free wheel and tire assembly that matched and moved one of the front to the spare and put the new one and the spare in the rear and moved the two rear to the front. The rear...

    Reloading for shorter barrels?

    Well I sorted out the little 16" barrel. One really big issue.....I was in such a hurry I never realized I had the front action screw hand tight and never put the rear one in 🤦‍♂️ . It ended up loosing up and became obvious. I started chasing velocity before I realized the missing and loose...

    Barrel wear Vs velocity/weight/energy

    Sadly I admit I don't drive my humvee much because the tires don't last. roughly 1 thousand bucks a tire and you can get about 2K-3K miles out of a set.

    Reloading for shorter barrels?

    as a side note I am trying an experiment. I have an old take off barrel that it turns out was shot out. Chopped ten inches off the chamber end and turned it into a remage barrel. Now trying to see if it will shoot again. So far it went from 27" being shot out and shooting 1 1/2" groups to 3/4...

    I knew that was some fake AI crap. #2 And #3 look like the same girl and #2 is in a bunch of few fake pictures on facespace (although she is pretty even for a robot).
