Sorry to hear. Prayers sent and hope they find whomever was involved in your Uncle's.

Thats a monster!

Amazing job JP. You are to be congratulated although I'm sure the way you feel trumps everything anyone could say. I was well on my way to my goal of dropping 20 pounds last year but then I got myself hooked on pop again. It's amazing how the calories add up with just a few cokes every day...

Dennis it sounds like with all that wine you could survive trapped in it for a while and not care :)

I think that is what makes some people remain silent about it too. I don't care if it makes them mad or not, if they are risking my life with their negligent behavior then something is going to be said. I won't argue the point with them further but I'm definitely going to let them know about it.

OSA THR Here now :) Count me as another bolt shooter to add to the list. Haven't competed much at it lately, but I'm not so rusty that I still can't drill the 10 ring at LR.

Ya great catch and hopefully the guy learned a valuable lesson. 1st rule of firearms safety...

LOL... I suppose it can be done, but it's still going to be loud and fill the air. You might even get the neighbors to call the police on you if they imagine you murdered someone in the house lol. Just for fun, load up an empty primered case and go out to your garage to shoot it. You'll swear...

Thats troubling that their search and keyword capabilities are that powerful and that they'd go to those lengths to try and call people out... I've always wondered how they get away with not being held to the same standards as banks when it comes to money transfer. It's one thing for them to...

Very nice! Thanks for posting!

duh... I forgot about the scope. I'm so used to talking about bolt guns in the context of match rifles and 10 round rapid fire strings that is where my head went. So even using a bolt gun like a 700 with mod for a detachable magazine, I'd be curious to know how they train for quick multiple...

What kind of editing did you do on the second pic? Did that light box do enough to make it look like a full white background without any shadows? I've tried and tried to get correct lighting for photos like that but mine always end up with something wrong. Maybe I'm not using enough lights...

It's more than just cycling the bolt. It's about cycling the bolt without distrubing your position, doing it quickly and being able to acquire your target again quickly. I've shot enough hi-power matches to be able to cycle rounds and load stripper clips as fast as is possible, it's the extra...

I voted two days just because that seems to be the norm. I don't really care what it is as long as we know. Sometimes I'm a little fast with my typing and hitting the reply button or I think of another thing I wanted to add later and it's just easier to edit rather than try and post again, but...

I don't chew it, it's just for spittin' :)

LC brass is thicker especially at the head anyway, but you probably got some that was fired in a machine gun and maybe caused a little shape issue? I don't think I've ever had any amount to speak of that was malformed especially not 1 out of 10. Just toss them aside in a pile for the recycler...

Interesting article, thanks for posting. Bolt guns obviously can be cycled very quickly as hipower shooters do it all the time. It would be interesting to know what kind of sniper training is performed to develop quick firing such as the rapid fire strings in matches.

Just watch for signs on your brass. It will tell you as long as you listen. On the question of it not fitting in the shell holder... is it out of round or ??? Are you sure you have the correct shell holder? What brand / number is it or post a pic. I have a cross reference for all the types...

What is the standard for "articulating a resonable fear of bodily harm" when it comes to carrying? Does that mean I have to suppose that someone is out to get me or have filed a protective order or ???

I started shooting .22 target rifles indoors and was completely hooked. That combined with the fact that firearms, hunting and shooting of all kinds were a staple in my upbringing left me no choice.
