I think the word you're looking for is 'Abomination'.

160, 185, 200 ... choice of bearing length and nose length. Short nose might have feeding issues, gun to gun. Long nose, light weight, short bearing length equals more case volume ... more powder required? Cast bullets generally priced by weight. How many more 185's will you get? 'Scrapping out' the...

Bought these here some time back. Seller wasn't sure if 65 or 80. They don't fit my 65. Some wear on them, screw heads buggered a bit. Dim's: 65 (in, mm) / 80 in, mm) (+- a bit, mm rounded off) Frame depth OD: (1.225, 31) / 1.220, 20) Frame width: (.46, 11.5) / (.455, 11.5) Screw C-C: (2.13, 54) / (...

Bipods ... you gotta learn how to 'preload' them, or they bounce and throw shots to God knows where...

Get a good sling and coat... for score. And a proper 'Benchrest' setup for testing ammo...

You'll need a proper bench as well ...

Been there, done that... don't want to repeat it ...

I've heard of D' Wagging between dudes...

But not 'BD' wagging ...

Maybe I'm just not old enough yet?

Nah, that can't be it...

Earl at Carlwalther once told me that trying to hit something at 50 yards with a WC bullet was like trying to hit something at 50 yards with a beer can.

Well ... yeah ...

But a beer can full of lead...

Thrown with a perfect 'spiral' ...

'Clocking' astigmatism, rotate the lens until a window frame appears 'square'. As for round lenses, I've dropped off several holders to have lenses fit to them. None of them fit ... because the lense holders aren't ROUND. They're rolled from a milled strip. And lenses are somehow cut with a tracing ...

I remember seeing targets for BB gun at 5M. No idea if the bull is the correct diameter.

Another option would be to cut out the center of a 10M to 5M diameter, and post it backwards on top.

Swarzenegger ....

'Long slide mit laser sighting' ...

What better marketing could there be?

Possibly. In a garage cabinet at my parent's house. Recently deceased parent's...

If my siblings haven't already trashed them. I think I put a note on them... I didn't have room in my suitcase for anything newer then '63.

*machinist* Mike ... get you some Delrin ...

Seems to me my 150 is dry fired by resetting it. Don't have to touch the breech and cock the firing pin. And I'm thinking all I have to do is pull my trigger finger from the guard and push the lever down. But I'm shooting left handed. Or that memory is from before I switched.

Don't recall exactly how much, 7 or 8mm, but I made a riser for mine to go from 50 to 200 yds without adjusting the sight.

Lowering the front, like a LR rifle, is a better option. Keeps the cheek piece adjustment the same.

Hornady progressive, small measure insert. N-310, 2.05 gr. ... Bear Creek HBWC, in 32 HR. Weighed a bunch, looked just fine to me.

Bigger thing is a proper expander.

Yeah, might not scale by subtracting 4mm. Hence, 'reference'.

My FWB air rifle has a stepped insert. It's a 22mm, but for reference the diameters are .708/.782 ... 18/19.8mm.

'You and me both, brother' ... Buying ... umm, 'stuff' ... not only I don't need, but likely ever even use... What to 'let go' ... but they're all so pretty ... and selling stuff is way more work then buying. A few weeks +++ I'm planning on being there... you'll likely recognize a change in the odor...

'Nikita@ ... MIT is familiar for a fair length of time ...

'J' ... not registering in my decomposing brain ...

Some searching ... due diligence ... is on you ...

The twist of the barrel is faster than the rifling. So centripetal force results in the pellet being out of round ...

No doubt they calculated it for 10M as to minimize the points most likely lost.

Coriolis not likely a big issue ... but maybe 'Cornholio' ...

Rover????

Shot Crosman pellets in my Powerline 'pump' gun ... before I upgraded to the HW-35 ... Got nothing but a 'blap' one day... Bluejays... Somehow happened to notice a pellet on the ground ... that had slid out of the barrel when I pointed it down... Shortly thereafter discovered there are real live gen...
