Thirsty Goat, 512 Amber ...

Absolutely shitty int we lllsvec witu a smart phone....

I'm f'kg done ....

Buy a 10-22 ...

;-)

Shiner? I quit on that years ago. Thirsty Goat for awhile, then they closed up. And then reopened. Still have a 6 pack of bottles from the original. Plan is to compare with the new stuff at some point. Brewer across town SURELY has better taste buds than me. His Ghost Pepper Porter is interesting. I...

T-4 has a Parker Hale 5-C on it, direct mount to the receiver. I think it was built as a police rifle, heavy NATO spec barrel, and a dovetail base on the receiver ring for a scope. Whatever was on the rear likely got pulled to mount the sight. If only it was one of the Palma rifles with a beaver tai...

Bumbling along ... 2 main mounts, in the US anyway. Lyman is .xxx wide on the face, and 90 deg included angle Redfield .xxx wide and 60 deg. Redfield uses a 10-32 screw, Lyman an 8-32. (Angles and threads verified. Eyeballed anyway) Too many questions in my own head, need to dig a few rifles out of ...

The 'Warner' design is being made by a guy on the HP Forum. Feedback is that they're every bit as good as the originals. And he rebuilds the originals as well.

Not 'cheap' though.

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...

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'.
