Wolfie,
Around 2500-3000 per barrel, (I think my old databooks are packed away, in preparation for a move) plus at least as much dry fire.

Wolfie,
Around 2500-3000 per barrel, (I think my old databooks are packed away, in preparation for a move) plus at least as much dry fire.
I find the trigger talk on this thread rather interesting--mostly from a "different tools for different jobs" angle. I shoot Highpower seriously, and the opinions on triggers are *very* different in...
Far be it from me to discourage someone from buying a new gun... but before you go spending money you might want to try smoothing up the action. If you slather on some JB paste on the bolt (making...
I think I'd have gone with Wilson.
I'll confess to having a knee-jerk reaction to her intro... it comes across as "the state should require that my personal area of interest is taught to all students" which I instinctively dislike.
...
As Insty likes to point out, duck-and-cover wasn't stupid at all. Outside the actual blast radius, the danger is from shrapnel (windows, etc.), and getting under something solid is the smart place to...
You know you've spent too much time playing geoguessr when your first instinct is to find the exact spot in the video.
I figured that looked like 29 heading into Warrenton, but initially thought...
Even my wife rolled her eyes at that one. My wife, who just yesterday, made a joke about a Finnish rally driver on Top Gear, driving a car described by Hammond as a "whale of a car" or some such, as...
Heh... just multiply by 1hp/.746kw, then 1L/100km is about .43gal/100mi, then invert to get mpg. Easy.
I do like the gas/distance rather than distance/gas as the measure of fuel economy. I find...
Perhaps. :cool:
I can't be the only one who finds it surprising that Todd's sympathy meter goes to 11, can I?
(And while I'm at it, the divisions on the scale are 5/6 until 10, then thirds to 11.)
That's hilarious.
You can have my bacon-egg-and-cheese pie when you pry it from my cold, clogged arteries.
That one's Pilkington's design, licensed to Crossman. I've played with one of them a few times at Nationals, and they're darn good for what they're designed for: an air rifle to simulate a service...
This looks like a decent explanation: http://www.nrablog.com/post/2009/07/02/Sporter-versus-Precision-whats-the-difference.aspx
Short version: precision is much, much less limited. (but the rules...
If the team uses Challengers, then buying her one of those would be a good option. Plus, that way she has *hers*, and can get used to the peculiarities of the gun, which is something of a concern in...
That was a good deal even then. I just looked up the prices on Powder Valley: $46/100 for the Scenars, $41/100 for the 155 Berger* Hybrids (my favorite .308 pill), so the price premium isn't as big...
The new 155 class bullets are excellent. (Sierra 2156 MatchKings, Berger 155 Hybrids and 155.5 Fullbore and the 155 Scenars--which have been around a while.) Unfortunately, the Scenars are *pricey*....
It's very much possible, but your gun as it is probably isn't up to it by other than dumb luck. You'll want (very likely *need*) a float tube. If you don't mind a "modern" railed tube, there's your...
I definitely cut mine. The only problem is about 20 minutes after I laid out everything carefully, made sure it'd fit, carefully cut each section out and fitted everything perfectly, I realized that...
Challenge accepted.
Here goes... (and I don't think I'm missing any major leaps of logic)
If I may start with the area of a triangle as given: base * height / 2
If I divide the circle up into...
Here's what I found interesting about that article: in the picture of Craig holding the rifle, looking all Bond-like in front of the DB5, he has his finger outside the trigger guard. In the similar...
Several of the guys I shoot High Power with use their side-charging handle billet uppers, their BOFAARs (Big, ol' fat Alexander Arms Receiver), as they call them, on their match rifles. They work...
That sort of makes my point about the corporate income tax... it'd be much better to get rid of it, which would eliminate things like special tax treatment for industry X, and then treat investment...
Two things, first:
You notice that the top 1% earns 17% of income, but pays 37% of taxes (I'm assuming this Federal income taxes), whereas the bottom 50% ears 13%, but pays 2% of taxes. That...
