      New .260

      Brandon, reading the specs on it, it should be a real good rifle, 1-8 twist and aluminum bedding block. If you can not get it to shoot like you want try H-414 and 120gr SMKs set to .003 off. Push it until it shoots one hole, it is how 414 reacts to a top end load with 120s.

      What gun stuff did you do today?

      Spent a few hours this weekend helping a disabled vet try to get a 60s memory gun built, then up and running. He used to shoot on an AF team in the 60s. Did a shark fin, national match upper for his 1911 he is putting together. Cut a dovetail for a Rollo rear, drilled and tapped the beast for an...

      Stream of Consciousness/General Conversation Thread

      I expect you are just lucky there was nothing there the piggys liked, like a corn field. I have seen them turn a 30 acre corn field into a dozer obsticle course in one night, holes 3-4 ft deep and 6-7 ft in diameter across the entire field. Took a dozer just to get a tractor back on my friend's...

      Trump's POTUS awesomeness

      Well we now have a Secretary of State, approved by the senate today. He actually knows the people he is talking to and has carried a big stick all of his adult life as CEO of Exxon. Then our new security advisor, today, told the Iranian terrorists cruds that we will blow their ass off, if they...

      Prayers requested for my wife and i

      That sounds great, really good, one little step at a time. It takes intensive training to get the brain to find ways to go around the damaged cells. That is amazing that she is already walking unsupported, any distance at all. Things are looking up. Maybe telling Kim; do you realize that it took...

      Official Pics Thread

      It seems to me that the unions should see this wall project as an oppertunity to protect their member's jobs and the union's continued existance, sounds a lot like a win, win for them. It is a head scratcher every time they write a check to a Democrap if all is above board. Ed

      What gun stuff did you do today?

      Absolutely, it is tough when you find yourself compeating against folks that shoot every day for hours, with a half dozen guns that are exactly the same in every respect plus have unlimited spare parts and repair folks standing by, cases of ammo loaded to their specifications for all of the...

      What gun stuff did you do today?

      Sounds to me like you are pushing for a reclass of a couple of slots. Good for you, move up when you can. Shure stops any harrasment :-). Ed "In addition, if the competitor shoots an Area Championship or major tournament and wins first or second in a class higher than his or her current...

      Song that get your blood flowing

      Aaro, Did you happen to see the special on Paladia about Jeff Lynne? If not, it is pretty darned incredible, if you have the opportunity to watch it, do so as an ELO fan. The film of the tour of his home is worth the price of admission. I have seen major record companies that do not have the...

      Obama Social Security Gun Grab Reversed by Congress?

      Yep, this appeared a few days ago on the news with info that the NRA has asked Trump to intervene to stop this, before it gets really rolling under new orders from Obama, this is an old directive with new legs, because the SSA and VA have both become involved in reporting "mentally deficient"...

      Butch Trucks....RIP

      Sad part is he will become another statistic of a "gun death" for the anti crowd as his death was a suicide, he shot himself in the head. RIP Butch. Ed
