Hi Andy..... How's things?

 

That's pretty much where I am. I gave up 17 years as a moderator on a motorcycle site because it's just not worth my time for a bunch of whiney fuckers. Here we all just groan from stiff joints, not hurt feelings.

 

Because seriously, what is there that I need to know that we don't know in this thread? We have guns, knives, overland trucks and 2 wheel drives. We've got fishing and hunting. We've got welders and trailer builders, and guys that dig in the dirt. We've got electricians and pen makers and mechanics. We've got cooking types, and we've even got a couple women folk, and one non women folk that will, on occasion, dress up like a woman, although I wish he'd keep that kinda stuff to himself. We got dogs and cats, and villas in the oregon hood. Seriously, what is there that we can't figure out in this thread?

 

and ketchup!

 

The Vortex would be a good choice for that rifle. I believe the rail on that action has 20moa built into it so all you'll need is a good set of rings. For distance (anything out past 950yd) look at running 175 SMKs the heavier bullets will maintain supersonic flight longer. The 168SMKs go transonic at 900-950, then they go ass over teakettle. The 155 Palmas work well at distance however you would be loading yer own at that point. I've also run the Hornady 178s in the 308, they need to be loaded hot for velocity to take advantage of the bullet though.

 

Your 6.5x55 - is it modern or more of the C&R variety? Just asking because I'm partial to the vintage stuff with all the history.

 

Ditto.

 

Evening

 

Howdy!

A Krag–Jørgensen in the collection?

 

My Holy Grail is a Type-S Sporter from in between the wars.

 

I have so much stuff for my guitar they're laying all over the place. So I decided I need to make a footboard. Just organize.




Kind of laying things out right now.

 

I have a VZ with an amazing history.

 

Cigar box is a cool touch

 

Yea I ordered it when I got the psycho kit. The only thing I would get now if ever would be a delay box.
Adds a cool edgy sound to the end of the tone. With only one string it needs all the help it can get. Lol

 

And, not only do we all collectively do all that, we've been collectively doing that for a long time and know how to provide honest, helpful information.

 

Buddy of mine back in VA had his Class 1 and used to buy them in small lots from Century Arms years ago. Trying to research arsenal markings was half the fun.

 

So, (getting back to the Blackout), what does a low end upper go for?

 

...ok, mid-range...
