AAR for Sunday. Man, what a shiit-show. Long Range Day 2. We left the target out there from Saturday. Small gong at 500, IPSC plates at 850, 1000 and 1200. The Win Mag was the one getting tested this day, and that's my Win Mag writeup for the NEXUS ammo - see here: Man, I'm telling you, we get out there and I am JUST POURING that damn Hennessey out of me. I'm sweating it, pissing it... The start of LR2 just SUCKED. I tried to pit the 18" Grendel against the 18" Valkyrie, and I can't hit shiit, can't focus on shiit... it SUCKED. GP John sets his badass Creedmoor up on it's bipod, out on that sweetass VooDoo Tactical shooting mat/mattress thing that it is - and he puts in foamy ear plugs. Then he puts on his electronic earmuffs. THEN he rolls onto his back, pulls his hat down over his eyes... and takes a fucking NAP! I kid you not. He slept right through the gunfire, not a twitch. He had a rough Saturday Night, so I get it, but DAMN! He slept through it all. I got tired of wasting Grendel and Valk Match ammo, so I switched up to testing the NEXUS Win Mag stuff against my handloads. THAT is when I started to feel better. That Win Mag gun is zero'd for 500 yards, so I went straight to the 500 on my handloads - BANG! TING! I'll take that. Move to the 850, dope is on, hit that. Move to the 1000, my dope is on, hit that. Now, that 1200 - elevation was on, for dope, but the wind made it tricky out there. Finally hit that bastard. Seeing that the elevation (dialing) was on, calling wind, I turned the gun over to @blue109 and @Cunuckgaucho. They were getting on it, making hits out there on the 1k, but that 1200 was a motherfucker. We'd moved tothe NEXUS 220gr ammo, and it was almost a direct match for my 225gr handloads. Their's at 220 gr and 2815fps matched up to my 225gr and 2800fps pretty well. That Nexus 190gr, though... With the 190s coming in "pretty light" for what the gun was tailored around, it took some time. Both Eric and Mike put the time in, and figured it out. No shots on the 1200 with that, because it was a chore to figure out the 1000. When you saw both targets, 1k and 1.2k, through the scope, they were exactly 2 mils apart in the reticle. I think Eric figured this one out while I spotted him. Dial 1000 in the scope (for 225s), HOLD the base of the 1200 on the crosshairs, and you hit the 1k right on. Additional 2 mils of drop at 1000, NEXUS 190s versus handload 225s and NEXUS 220s.

I love that ride. There's nothing that can compare to it. I did 2009 and 2010.

That is GOOD NEWS!!!

Snatch it.

Hell, I'm just looking for an easier way to get the Knockers easily-accessible...

Imagine that - we've fixed more malfunctioning PSA here on this site than PSA's Warranty Department has...

Welcome aboard, man - get pics of those rifles up.

Special Operations Dogs assigned to Special Operations Guys was one of the brightest things the military ever caught on to. It's fucking brilliant. And lethal as fuk.

That is gonna be BADASS!!!

ZERO objections, brother - and it comes in Salted Caramel, too... The back of that Salted Caramel box has a recipe to make "caramel apple" drinks - with this one and the apple... That could lead to a WILD evening!...

HELL YEAH!!! 1944 Ford 2N tractor!

Small amount of cratering on the primer - slightly flattened primer. That's up there in the charge-weight. I think I see an ejector smear in that right one, about 4 o'clock, but it's minor. Bottom line - your recoil system isn't up to task here. It's too light, with too little spring pressure - that's making the gun cycle (gas system), but that fucker is trying to unlock too early - because that weak recoil system isn't keeping it locked long enough. That 0.073" gas port diameter is still too small - but make changes one at a time. THEN you pinpoint the differences your changes make. Don't modify it all at once - change recoil system, drill gas port, mess with the gas block adjustments... You never know what change made what happen. Fix the recoil system first... After that, we drill gas port diameters up. This can be a tedious process, but it's what you have to do when dealing with a fucked up gas gun. Make absolutely SURE that the adjustable gas block is WIDE OPEN for all testing. If it's not, you're wasting your time. Test them wide-open - then you adjust down, as necessary. If it's not wide-open - you'll never know if that gas port diameter is large enough to begin with, because you've restricted it...

DAMN! That's a SCORE, brother!!! BIG TIME!!! You sure that's the FireDot? (Illum center dot?) They made one that didn't have the illum in it. Either way, that's a screamin' deal!

I don't know HOW I remembered it, but Fuk yeah I did find it - I was ON THE HUNT for it... It's badass, brother - it's worth it. Fuk is it good...

@Peachey, I've missed you guys. Kid you not... You better take care of him, woman. Nurse him back to health. I can't deal with you if he's not around...

Full-on Appleseed flashback, right there, with the "turkey neck"... that doesn't come from anyplace else but that.... Cheek to stock weld, in an Appleseed... I LOVE Apple-Seeders, like you can't imagine....

Eat some of this - Arron Lewis doesn't fuK around... That one will shock some fuckers...

You fuckers are GOLD. amongstthe other regular fuckers that are GOLD, too. You guys are amazing. These shoots are a shiit-show that you don't want to miss, both invited, to the chaos. Damn you both...
