    Especially given the complexity of shooting through an 8K’ column of winds constantly changing direction relative to the axis of the barrel as they orbit the target.

    Nothing to add, but danger close with un-tweaked guns was especially interesting in light of this conversation.

    Only if you consider stuff like RMR mounts tapped for #4 screws and a dovetail that a rear backup sight will drop right through to be a problem.

    This kid had to fall through a lot of cracks to be able to do what he did, but providing a clearly disturbed minor with access to a firearm is a level of negligence bordering on recklessness. I tend...

    Yep, the firing pin was about 15 thou short. No idea how it got that way. I haven’t shot it enough to be certain that the problem is solved but initial results are encouraging.

    TLDR: The only variable separating the consistent velocities (155 & 200 gr. XTPs and 200 gr. Blue Bullets) and the inconsistent results from the copper solids is the projectiles themselves. Charges...

    Inconsistent velocities with copper solids

    I’m seeing ridiculous ES figures working up a stout load for 10mm 190 gr. penetrators. Easily 5X what I get with 200 gr. XTPs and Blue Bullets. Same powder (Power Pistol), primers, press & brass....

    Even a pristine use of deadly force does not absolve the shooter of the responsibility for the effects of every round that they fire. It's hard for me to fit firing blindly through this door into...

    Nothing really to add, except for the thin wall/case capacity issue will require a new load workup. If memory serves that amounted to an additional 1.5 gr. for a 45 gr.-ish .308 load. I started my...

    Nothing to add. I’m guessing that a can will alter the shape of the pressure curve, but it’s not obvious how it could contribute to overpressure.

    I think that aiming with sights in that situation would be aspirational, but a valid point for other unconventional positions that don’t involve being eaten.
