An easy way to test this out is dry-fire training. Lay down behind the gun, in your living room. Stick your phone out there in front of you with a stopwatch on the screen, so you can watch it. DON'T breathe deep, just full exhale, and watch that stopwatch tick away... Maintain the position, without breathing in - just hold it out... and see how long it takes before you start shaking in the sight... Then, do the deep breaths, and watch that time go up before you start shaking... Intentional Hyperventilation... Yep, tried and true. It's been a part of training the the better part of a century.

MAN! Tacticat came in earlier, but Bitchy Cat didn't wanna come in, at that time. Then TactiCat lost his shiit... After I ran that fucker off, I grabbed the flashlight and went looking for her. I searched all over the backyard, half worried I was gonna find her chewed up behind the shed or something. LAST PLACE I checked, she was there, and fine. She was up on the wall, right up against the house, on the east side, scrunched into the smallest ball she could make herself. She didn't want to come down, so I had to calm her down and get her off the wall. She tucked in tight once I had her. She's fine now, and over it. Both those jackasses wanted to go out as soon as I got home tonight, but it was already dark. Nope. I've got half a dozen of those .22 Cal Blank trips, and two shotshell blank trips. Those things are going up. At least I'll know if it comes back, and hopefully that freaks it out bad enough that it doesn't even think of coming back. My initial reaction wasn't fear - I was PISSED. I was worried after running it off, though, about Bitchy... This thing was easily twice the size of TactiCat - but that silly bastard was ready to try to fight it... This ain't no Labrador or Boston Terrier, you Knucklehead...

ATF prosecuting a lawful AR pistol owner
98Z5V replied to Armed Eye Doc's topic in Firearm Industry News and Gossip
From that second link: This pretty much lists his parts - but it doesn't say anything about why BATFE went after him, and decided to go against FATD determinations... https://princelaw.files.wordpress.com/2018/10/certification-of-exhibits.pdf -
Had a FUCKING BOBCAT in my backyard tonight. OH HELL NO!... I let the two cats outside everynight, so they can chill out, and act like they're gonna get one of the doves out back. Tacticat is a Lizard Stalker, and he can fuk them up when they're out there. God forbid, I'd ever have a DOG in the backyard, he'd lose his shiit... So tonight, I let them out, and it's getting dark... I leave the door open, and he comes in. I didn't notice that Bitchy Cat did NOT come in, so I shut the door. 'bout 30 minutes later,Tacticat BLOWS THE FUK UP AT THE DOOR!!! He's going more batshit crazy than the last ex-wife, or over ANY dog he's tried to fight, and I can't figure it out!!!.... I look out the dooir, and there's a fucking BOBCAT ON MY PATIO!!! The mental calculus in my reaction time cannot even be explained. In a rapid split-second, I realized that I have nothing - NOTHING - to shoot this thing with, within city limits. I know enough of the cops here, and shoot with enough of them, that I could "make a connection" if someone I didn't know responded... and I still had nothing... 9mm close by, mag of 9mm snakeshot, 45ACP close by - this motherfucker was OUTSIDE MY PATIO DOOR!!! SHOTGUN! It's right there on the back of the couch! Fuk no, can't shoot that here. FUK ME!!! THis all went down in 0.23 seconds, after seeing this fuckker on my patio. I reacted, in the only way I could... I threw that door open and CHARGED that furry motherfucker, with all my caveman fury, frenzy, and valor. I was gonna STOMP that motherfucker right into a part of my backyard... ...but it was FAST. Holy SHIIT was it FAST. I've never seen an animal react so fast - this fukker was GONE! Like, SO FUCKING FAST I COULDN'T TELL WHICH DIRECTION HE WENT!!! In a natural attempt to MAKE SURE he was outta my yard, I was out there stomping around, grabbing anything I could, and throwing it in every direction I though he might have went. My backyard is a fucking disaster right now. It looks like the hurricane that missed - hit. I think I fucked up my air compressor that was out back on the back porch. I reached a magnitude of "retard strength" during this ordeal, that I hurled that compressor out into the yard, after that hairy, no-tail-havin', tufted-eared motherfucker... FUK! I swear I wish I could have got my hands on it. That motherfucker better NOT come back here, ever. If I coulda grabbed it, one of two things were happening - kinda like Tequila. Wild Jungle Monkey Sex, or someone's gettin' the SHIIT beat out of them. Sometimes BOTH. If I coulda grabbed that hairy female cat, I was gonna choke it out, or get cut up like Freddy Krueger got me... MOTHERFUCKER!!! I'm pissed. There's ZERO REASON that fucker should be in my god damned backyard. I'm setting up the shotgun shell trips now, along the perimeter. I'm gonna get that bastard. This is war.

Just lay back and let it happen, Merle. It's destiny, no other way it couldn't be...

I see you looking at this thread, Greg... don't close it yet... This is the best For Sale thread ever!...

^^^ He keyed on it, and I could talk about it for HOURS. This STARTED with Lexington and Concord. What led up TO that and what happened after - is what made this country, and made the Declaration Of Independence, and later resulted in the Constitution Of The United States. I can carry on about this for days...

I know you guys remember this man. This Patriot stood up for his rights, and made it known. This is a great update...

Done. Sox did it, 5 games, won 4. World Series Champs, and well deserved. That was some GREAT baseball!...

G-DAMN, MAN!!! JOE KELLY IS A BADASS PITCHER!!!

I'm so AD/HD, I can't keep track of that one... but I try...

Just caught something I've never mentioned before, but it's important. Breathing, and breaking the shot... In the beginning of this vid, I'm wiggling around, moving body position - I'm setting my Natural Point of Aim (NPOA). That's for a later discussion... There's 3 shots in this vid. First shot, Slo-Mo shot, and 3rd shot. You can't see shiit for breathing in the SLO-MO shot, so on to the other two. In the first shot, you can see me take in a sharp breath, settle, and shoot. In the 3rd shot, it's more clear what I'm doing... I take in 3 sharp, deep breaths, settle, and fire. You never fire while you're breathing, just don't do it. Your groups will look like a shotgun pattern. You always do the exact same thing, every time you break a shot - that's where consistency comes from. Have a plan, and stick to your plan - do the same thing, every time. So, you never break a shot while breathing - you always - ALWAYS - break the shot during a "natural resiratory pause." Full exhale, rest, break the shot. In a high(er) stress situation, you can "fake out" your brain, and your system. Take in a series of sharp,deep breaths, THEN fully exhale, and pause... In a way, it's "hyperventilating" your system. You breath in (sharp, deep breath) hard enough to expand your stomach - yeah, you breath in THAT deep. That's full expansion of the solar plexus, full expansion and intake on the lungs, blow it out hard... If you take in sharp, deep breaths, overload your system with "an intake" of air, you can expand your natural respiratory pause to 7 seconds. That's about the max of it. Even if you do this, after that 7 seconds, your brain is telling your body to take a breath, YOU are holding it, trying to make a shot - and you start shaking... There's nothing you can do about that, it just happens. That time to break the shot is even less if you do not overload your system, and take in those sharp, deep breaths. You max it out, and suck it in, and you just bought yourself 7 seconds to break the shot, before your brain starts fucking with the rest of your body - and you miss... This is VERY important for making multiple shots (and hits). It's critical. You load up your system by breathing deep, and you can make several shots in that 7-second period... Off my now. Try it out at home, you'll see.

Damn, brother, that last set is unreal. That terrain is scary and beautiful, at the same time. Excellent pics...
-
Next dude that shows up talking about a lightweight build - you'll be all over him, with info and prices... THAT is your chance at payback...
-
Do it, brother, if you can find one. It's same/same at this point.
-
Brother, you were HAULING ASS!!! All kidding aside, that's some beautiful territory, just gorgeous. You made the most of the trip - again, I might add... I can't believe that Prius smoked you, though. Look at the hi-speed vids close...
-
It's too late - you've already been sucked into the Black Hole... there is no escape...

^^^ I can see the gears turning on this one already...

We couldn't collapse it, because the legs were bent so bad. We had to take the legs off with the recip-saw,just to fold that thing up. The expanding canopy part of it is back in the bag, waiting for you. It loves you, and wants to come home to MikeDaddy...
-
I have bad news, brother. I have the cooler, and I have the chair... the canopy got MASHED with wind, and almost killed Shepp when it went over. It was wasted, seriously. I brought back the pieces, but all the legs were bent - literally - sideways, when a wind burst grabbed it. It's a goner...

SLR is proven. That's what I know. That one on top LOOKS sweet! But does it work?
-
Based on those impacts on target, with a direct center-hold, I'm moving the turrets down 1.0 mils and right 0.5 mils. During the next round of load testing, I'll be pretty damn close to POA-POI.
-
It's well worth it brother, at twice the price. This turned into my go-to trigger quite awhile ago, with very few exceptions.

Where the accuracy comes in is at 2550 fps and a little north of that. My load #2 above should be 2550, and I'll work up through load #4. Load #5 would be at 2600 fps. I'll be between 2550~2600fps when it's all settled. Here's a drop chart based on 2550 fps with that projectile. G1 BC of 0.697, G7 BC of 0.351. This projectile is the sheit for this caliber! Supersonic to 1400 yards...
