The CZickness XLII looking towards the FGE

[Bennettjh]

The sweet purr of a tumbler.

 

[Leadeye]

For semi auto stuff I've always had good success with 30301 and 748 powder. Never owned a .308 bolt gun.

I'll mainly be testing with 4064. I have some Vitavouri but not enough to make load development worthwhile

 

[Leadeye]

I had issues with 4064 in the M1A which I attributed to the burn rate. It was the first powder I tried for it back in 81.

Spent some much needed time at the range with another Canadian today. Steel was rang. Smiles were had. Plans for future mischief ensued.

Got a short ride around the woods in and then installed a new dropper seat post on the MTN bike. It went well and I'll tidy up the install tomorrow.

After about 3 hours in the tumbler, I went to check on it and start rinsing only to find a broken tumbler belt. I rinsed anyway and it looks like it must have had about an hour of run time. The brass is clean but the primer pockets are not pristine like I normally see with wet washing. They are about as clean as I normally see with dry media tumbling. I’ll let them dry overnight and check tomorrow in the sunlight to see if they are good enough to begin sorting or if they need to get dry tumbled in the vibratory tumbler instead.

Any Matrix fans? Came across the trailer for The Matrix 4.

I just watched the Matrix again about 3 nights back. Still fun to watch

As CM said, yes. I saw the trailer the other day, and it looks good. I hope it is good. I really liked the original Matrix movies.

I liked the 1st 2 then it got silly.
I hope this fixes that.

I’ve only seen the first one. I need to fix that now.

Count me in !

I hadn't shot the Howa yet since I put a Timney trigger in it and needed to run the Fed 168gr SMK across the chrono also. Pull weight is currently 1.64 lbs on the trigger. Seems to have helped, I beat my previous best 3-shot group of 0.387" at 100 yards, with a new best of 0.254". The 0.477" is my 3rd best and the 0.512" is my 5th best. No complaints there at all.

Give me some credit, man. Paper targets were hit AND steel at the same time. A feat unlikely to be duplicated.

It was truly epic. Sometimes I think you have super powers.

Sounds like a good day. Pistols I presume, as your friendly neighborhood Canadien has restrictions to abide by.

Good shooting, cannon man. Well done.
