  1. Happy birthday Al. It's hard not to be good with a steak like that.
  2. That is a pretty cool video. That is crazy that it is CGI and AI driven.
  3. Moonrise on Saturday night. Panoramic view from the 2000 yard shooting platform.
  4. I made it home a little bit ago and just got everything unloaded and camper back to the property. We got an extra 0.5 mpg over the trip because of a 20-30 mph tail wind all day today. For those interested, this is where the rocks ended up for the moment. I need more.
  5. This was an awesome time. As @98Z5Vsaid, it was smaller and more focused on the shooting. It was great to see the old friends and a new friend in @shooterrex's son Randy. I will post the important picture now and more when I get home. Oreo crust on the top piece.
  6. Yep, interference with daily activity, especially excess glare at night, is a valid reason for having cataract surgery earlier.
  7. I look forward to the summer update.
  8. You can always find a doctor who is willing to do surgery on marginal cataracts. You just have to be sure they are good at what they do.
  9. Nice harvest Rex. See you next week.
  10. I have put a couple hundred rounds through mine without issue. That doesn't mean it can't happen, just that I have not experienced it.
  11. Here is the Armalite carbine kit. This is where Armalite sells their parts now https://everygunpart.com/oem/armalite-ar10-6-pos-rec-ext-kit-assy-plate-no-stock-ar10rekit01-armalite-parts-8dtzx2-7utx-00.html
  12. Welcome to the forum.
  13. Welcome to the forum.
  14. Awesome!
  15. If it is available, a Mossberg Shockwave (or the above-mentioned 500 with an adapter) with the 1.75 inch shells should be among the options. You can get 8-9 birdshot, buckshot or slugs in one. The recoil is minimal with the short shells. However, precise aiming is optional except for the slugs. Ammo is maybe a little more expensive than 9mm SD loads, but practice would be a little less IMO.
  16. Nice spot you've got Rex.
  17. That walnut is nice, but that M1A is gorgeous.
  18. That is an awesome looking rifle. That stock is gorgeous! 😍
  19. That's a monster.
  20. Those are ok for measurements, but I would still recommend Cobalt bits. I have used similar HF bits on other metal and did not have good luck, especially with the smaller bits. However, I did not have a pilot hole. With those, I would go up the next size that doesn't fit even if you have to drill more than one time. You just want to be sure not to break the bit in the hole. Be sure to use some oil to keep the drill cool. I used a drill press as well with an AR upper vise. But have heard of plenty of people using a handheld drill.
  21. Looking at the above conversation chart, you need a #47 to get to almost 0.079 or #46 to go a little bigger. You can get individual numbered bits at many hardware stores. Unless you want an entire set, you don't really need all of them. Just be sure to get the Cobalt bits.
