    Wild game

    Hey, Doc... Mean like Rattlesnake, for certain, unpredictable like Rhino, Stubborn like Mule, and never forgets shiit, like Elephant. Sprinkle in a little Psycho like Howler Monkey, deadly like King Cobra... NOW I'm interested... THAT is why I'm madly in love with Jodi Arias...
  2. @Magwa Russell Means, brother. Go Full on Warlord, like Russell Means. You know what I'm talking about...

    YUM! Love it, man!!!
  4. Good news from Ballistic Advantage - they have 13 different 22 ARC barrels listed now, under it's own section. The bad news? All listed as "Coming Soon" and "Out of Stock"... Estimated ship time on the 18" rifle-gas SPR profile, bead blasted, is 4 to 6 weeks... https://www.ballisticadvantage.com/ar-barrels/22-arc
  5. Nail in the coffin, by the company that's gettin' ALL the military contracts these days. SIG is sucking some pretty heavy .mil Chode, and making mad money from the contracts. Everything that's "new and improved" in the .mil has SIG's name on it, all the way. SIG is bold enough to issue this statement on Braces, TO their dealers... The Brace Bullshiit is done... Or this wouldn't have happened in the first place...
  6. I mean, why not? Rob pulled guns out of places that I didn't even think could FIT a gun. It was surreal...
  7. GREAT ONE!!!
  8. This is LITERALLY IDENTICAL to my first face-to-face meet with @Robocop1051. I shiit you all not one bit. There's one difference in this, and meeting Rob. I'll get to it after the vid clip. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/-NPhLcHoacU (^^^ YT is preventing that from being embedded, or I'd have it embedded. Gotta click the link. Fuqrs.) SO, the main difference in that, with my first meetup with Rob... ...Rob had 17 guns on him. I'll spell it, so nobody thinks it's a typo. SEVENTEEN guns on him. At the same time. He peeled off THAT many guns.
  9. For real, Nate - don't build a gun yet. We have a guy with a 300 PRC, and he'll let you shoot it. Try the thing first, see if that's what you're after, then make the decision on buying or building for that cartridge. First, we gotta get HIM to show up when we can get YOU to show up, but it shouldn't be too much of a coordination issue. We solve problems, 'round here...
  10. The 25mm chain gun on the Bradley ain't no joke.
  11. Wow... We're fuqd...
  12. It's a trap, Doc - roll with it...
  13. ^^^ I KNEW IT!!!!
  14. I like your style!...
  15. Eh, it's okay, Nate, you can shoot someone else's gun... I'm just sayin'...
  16. BOOT!!! YOU'RE ALIVE!!!
  17. Looks good for the increase in the base, brother. The internal travel is there in the scope. It'll be close, but it'll probably go, and keep the 100 zero.
  18. You can be stubborn about this, and think it's all the same. We'll spot the shots, call the misses and corrections. we'll call the hits, too, when they happen. I'm not trying to make this hard - just trying to get you prepped, and have you leave happy - not disappointed. Success is the end of the game, in this one.
  19. The G1 BC of the bullet he's going to - and should have been shooting from all along it .777. That's all Kool and the Gang, all the same hardware checking out, and all that, but checking the travel that you have right now is kinda of imperative. Not something to blow off, just based on other stuff that someone else has. Measure your shiit, brother, and see where you are. Know what you have. Don't base it off what someone else has. Measure your own gun, man. Not trying to sound like a COMPLETE dickhead - but his gun isn't YOUR gun, and all the same hardware doesn't directly equate to the same output, on the end of all this. This morphed from 1760 yards to 2000 yards, and from what's been observed already, those two games are vastly different. Just check your scope, Rex, see what down-travel you have now, and see what you have. Asking for a friend...
  20. Here's a good taste of NRL Hunter competitions... It's so fukkin badass...
  21. I just dabble in this, brother, with gas guns. There's such another world out there... For example, last gas gun match was last Saturday, well, there was another event on Sunday at the Gunsite Range, in Paulden, AZ. @JBMatt planned to drive up there Sunday morning, just to check it out. NRL Hunter Match. HOLY SHIIT, is this thing badass! Let's say you walk up to your stage, you can't look at it until the timer starts. You have 4 minutes on the clock. Timer buzzes, and you can enter the target zone and firing position - you don't know how many targets are out there, where they are, what distances they are - nothing. Timer goes off, you approach the firing position - and you need to figure it all out. You have to glass for targets, FIND them, determine their distance, then engage those targets. You can ask "Yes/No" questions to the guy running that stage... "Is that 3rd target under the tree, around 500 yards, in the shadows?".... The answer might be "No." Well fukk... Okay then... This is some serious shiit, in the competition world, and we had no idea, until we went up there last Sunday, just to observe a match. Turns out it's a 2-day match, one of the biggest in the country, and we were mind-blown. This might be something that we get into. Well, I already know that @JBMatt is COMPLETELY FUQD, and he's gona be all Balls-Deep into this one!.... It's all bolt gun stuff, hunting, everyone is running around in the very best, most expensive hunting camo gear, looking cool - big doll-hairs gear - but it is BADASS...
  22. Have you dialed under yet, to see how much more you can go under, in the setup you have now? Run numbers, brother. See where you are. This isn't anything more than a math problem. Literally.
  23. That immediately reminded me of this one...
  24. Here's the direct way to calculate that one, Rex - Every 10 MOA in a base is gonna directly equal 10.47". Divide that by 3.6 (3.6" is one full Mil) and you'll get 2.901944. You have 20 MOA now. You had to hold 2.5 mils in your scope. Going to a 30 MOA base will give you another 2.9 mils of dial. So, you'd be able to dial one mile then, without very much left over. You might lose your hundred-yard zero. If you went 40 MOA base, that will allow you to dial another 5.8 mils in your scope from where it is right now, but you are pretty certainly gonna lose that hundred yard zero. One way to check that is to dial down as far as you can, below your hundred yard zero right now, and see how much down travel the scope has, as it is right now. If you have a zero-stop set, loosen that thing up, dial down under your zero now, check it, and you can always reset the zero-stop again later.
  25. For this one, what Matt said above is spot on. I have an EGW 30 MOA base on mine, and because of that, the shortest I can zero is 500 yards. That's as far down as my scope will dial. On the flip side, having a 500 yard zero isn't that bad, with proper dope on the cartridge/load, and I can hold under for shorter shots. Hold under 2.4 mils and that's 100 yards. The HUGE plus side of that 30 MOA base and 500 yard zero - I dial 16.9 mils for the mile shot.
