Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Byrdman007:  Amazing photo It is, but I am not the photographer. I am not that talented. It came from some friends who I met years ago while hiking trails on Pilot Mtn. We spent the rest of the day hiking together and became friends. That is from their home looking back at Pilot Mtn. Guess they thought I needed a pick me up? |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By 30calTBLkid: Hey, let me go through some of my old boxes and see if I have a cover. It'll take a while. If you paint, remove or tape off everything you can. Remember, tan is good, tan and shadowing is good, black is a silhouette in NV. People make recommendations on camo colors or paint. Its normally all good, but remember, you can always add natural veg or make it darker. Its damn hard to make shit lighter colored in the field. Thanks on the cover. No need to go through the trouble. I like the paint idea better anyway. The only pain to that is not screwing up all that velcro.  Worse case I'll try a cheap airsoft cover and see if it will work. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Cecenrse: Not me. IDGAF, will not get the vaccine, will not wear a mask in public, will not observe curfew. Who wants to hold my bail money in escrow just in case? I spent the whole day out and about. I was the only one without a mask that I saw. EVERYONE spoke to me and joked. They were all wearing masks and everyone was friendly. That said, I will talk to, and make friends with, a sign post (so my mom always told me, lol). i was starting in one store. There was a SUV parked at the curb. She rolled the window down as I walked past, then asked if I was going inside. Said yes, but was thinking, Oh fuck here itcomes. Instead, she simply asked me if I would tell an employee named Denasia her ride was here. lol Sure, no problem. I love small town folk.   Were all of your townfolk wearing shoes? . . . . . . . . .

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By 30calTBLkid: If I were you, and I'm not, so take this with a grain of salt... I would use your body to really work the copper out of it, neutralize the copper stripper before I put anything else down the bore, and then take it out and fire some rounds in a group to foul the bore, and shoot a series of groups to see how it does, running a wet patch and 4 dry (this is just my superstition, you pick the number) after every group. I don't really subscribe to "break in", but I have seen it make a difference, especially after pulling the copper out of a barrel. And, this part especially, I'd take a hard look at the optic. I have a twin for that optic on another rifle, so it's not a big deal to swap it to eliminate that. But don't be shocked if after all the cleaning it still doesn't group. my 308 load had the same dope as my 6.5 load. it was hot. we knew it was a barrel burner from the get-go. we just didn't know how far long it would last. eta: and meanwhile, doing a 'break-in' -- my normal routine anyway - isnt' a big deal as I have my new krieger barrel to break in as soon as I make some loads. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By 30calTBLkid: People have different ideas of break in. Some get real involved. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't matter. I did basically a modified version of what's on bartliens web site. I kinda let the barrel tell me what it wants depending on the patches, but basically 1, and clean. Another one, and clean. 3, and clean. 5, and clean. That's 10. If that goes well, 25, and clean. That's 35. If that's good, It depends if I have a big match coming up or just locals. If there are locals, I don't mind burning off the break-in during a local match for 60-70 rounds. Otherwise, I'll fire up the chrono and start watching the speed as I get close to 100-150 rounds. Somewhere in there I expect the barrel to speed up and then settle. Then I'll dial in my load and call it good. |

I've had barrels, specifically Kreiger and Liljia, that we compare side by side. Same barrels from each maker, one gets a break in, one gets cleaned and shot. Not much difference. Then again, some barrels it seems to make a difference. Traditionally, Ruger barrels hate copper. Eh. |
