The Need to Get into Reloading
I'm pretty sure I have solid loads for 52gr Sierra Matchking w/ Varget and 55gr with both Varget and CFE223. I just picked up some H335 and plenty more 52gr MK so that'll be next to try out. I also need to work up a load for 69gr MK's. Realistically, I need to get a chronograph to be doing this better.

Trump Admin Is Considering Using Amazon Echo And Apple Watch To Determine If Citizens Should Own A Gun
This is not the least bit surprising. He has no loyalty to the common person. Just him and his buddies at the top of the food chain. And this is why I refuse to get such a device. I always knew they would be listening in on everything. But this is the age of technology. It's all being used for someone else's benefit.

Hornady's 6.5 PRC - 6.5 Creedmoor for Men!
Interesting. I had been seeing something different online but that's good to hear from someone I can actually trust on this stuff. I know realistically, shooting in South Jersey, shooting above .223 for target shooting is plenty sufficient for anything I'm going to shooting at. Honestly, 6.5 PRC just sounds fun as hell. And God forbid something changes and I do get to shoot long distance, hey, I'll finally be ready. My other option was getting a T/C Compass in 6.5 Creedmoor cause I can get one to plink with at 100 or 200 yards.

Hornady's 6.5 PRC - 6.5 Creedmoor for Men!
Funny enough, I was debating on my next bolt gun and it was coming down to .308 or 6.5 Creedmoor. So naturally I went to someone who has been doing competition shooting for longer than I've been alive. And now I want my next rifle to be in 6.5 PRC. Great velocity, great ballistic coefficient. Recoil is still less than .308.

Scrubbed? Where do you make these ideas up? They are all readily available online.

An AR for "less than free" States
Where there's a pointless ban, there's great innovation. Like during prohibition, adding pepsin to wine so they could call it medicinal. Then the buyers just chilled it, pepsin came out of solution, filter it out, and bars had wine.

I just keep my mouth shut about it at the range. I go to the range to shoot and have fun.

I'm a motherf***ing delight tbh. I don't get into politics at the range.

Is this open to non-members? Sounds like a great friendly way to get into competitive shooting.

The Need to Get into Reloading
Range day today at R14. Light wind, maybe 5 mph. Beautiful day for it. Shot 20 55gr Hornady FMJBT rounds and zeroed my scope for the lighter weight bullets. Then I shot my 52gr Sierra Matchkings. I think I got a good recipe with Varget for the 52s. One group measured 0.78", a second measured around 0.85", a third measured 0.87" and the last group measured 1.1". Love seeing someone's tumbling round go through sideways. My wooden stake has a perfect indent from a larger .224 bullet.

Just like abstinence only education, it's less effective than any other means of teaching.

I mean, you really didn't. I asked for advice and mostly all I got was "Piss off, quit".

It's like telling someone who did a bad parallel parking job they shouldn't drive because you are treating them like they were traveling 100 mph down a side street side swiping cars. Gross overexaggeration.

Or, I'll just keep reloading, because I'm doing fine and have decent people to learn new things from. Not guys who act pompous and tell you to quit the first mistake you make, trying to make themselves feel superior.

Full Round Stuck in Barrel
No, it's not. The problem had nothing to do with pressure. I knew it then and I know that now. They weren't high pressure rounds. Knowing now that the issue was just the shoulder, it would have been fine. Experienced loaders I know say the same thing. But I didn't do it at the time because I didn't know the exact issue. There's a difference between not knowing the actual issue and trying to force it work and knowing the exact issue and knowing what the effects of it will cause.

I did check with a case gauge. And it turned out to be in the chamber. I'm sure I could have just given the bolt a good push and it would have been fine to fire.

Full Round Stuck in Barrel
Well, I'm not reloading handgun so I can't double charge anything. And I'm guessing with some of those rifles that blew up, they were using pistol powder instead of rifle. Old guy at the end should have just ejected the bad round. All one mistake? Right...

Anywho, took off my sizing die, put it back on adjusting it like I never used it. Got 60 rounds done tonight. Getting ready for a range trip next weekend at Range 14.

10th Circuit Takes a Whizz in Dems Cornflakes.
We could just get rid of an antiquated system that was invented to make up for the inability of Americans to communicate votes super fast like in the 1800s. As technology has changed, so should our voting system.
