Ok, this is close to an idea I had. Someone needs to get in Caulkins’ ear and sell him on the final sequel “Home Alone 50.” This is a serious, gritty movie, that ends in a heartwarming reunion after Kevin, age 50 and estranged from his wife and son after serving in Special Forces and dealing with PTSD. His son is abducted and between the efforts of both father and son and their flat refusal to quit, obviously involving clever problem solving and traps, they reunited. Because obviously Kevin’s son will be a hellion. I figure you can role some “Ransom of Red Cheif.” You could even have a realistic intro to Having getting the help he needs and returning to his family. What say you? View quoted note →

Poco a poco, she is coming together! It took some staging. Putting this all together isn’t hard but if you get the order of operations off, you’ll be in a pickle. New timing cover, new water pump, and all so I can put in a new dipstick tube! 😄 #carstr #classiccars #grownostr #plebchain

GM Nostr! I hope you all absolutely crush it this Monday! #grownostr #plebchain

I got out shooting today! I tested my hastily worked up (but carefully made) 6.5 Creed handloads and I am delighted with the results. I didn’t get to send that many down range but the two careful groups (circled in red) are encouraging. The middle group started strong (the three rounds by the orange circle) but the rain started pouring and visibility went down for the last two, but even with those “flyers” the group is not much more than a minute (minute or minute of angle/MOA ≈ 1”@100 yards) the second group was even better, well under a minute. The second group’s bullet holes look goofy and looks taller than it is because the rain soaked the cardboard and it started to sag backwards but the group is 1.2 inches as pictured which is 0.86 MOA! If you’re just reading for fun, a gun that shoots 1 MOA is shooting very well. Two 5 round groups aren’t statistically significant but show this load and gun may shoot very well. I’m hopeful my hunting loads will perform roughly as well as this batch. These groups were shot prone, off a bipod, with a sand sock, and without a time limit. My group size will open up significantly as I shoot from other positions but that means the gun is more accurate than I am AND if I need to take a dead-nuts shot, proned out then I’m shooting a system that can do it. What is happening for you at the range? I ranged the target at 137 yards and was shooting ammo I referenced here: View quoted note → #rangetime #gunstr #ballistics #externalballistics #creedmoor #hunting #handloading #reloading #loaddevelopment #loaddev #grownostr #plebchain

Back to making ammo. I’m getting started on resizing my 1x fired brass for the 6.5 Creedmoor. Thinking back, I wish I had annealed all the brass before starting. It behaves very differently and better after annealing it. For bolt guns I full length size with an S-Type die. I’m shooting for 0.004” headspace and using the Redding competition shell holders. They are staged in 0.002” increments and really speed up both finding the right headspace and setting up the press for consistent headspace between batches. You can do this without but competition shell holders are way faster and I’m glad I spent the money on them. Next step is trimming. #brass #brassprep #fulllengthsizing #creedmoor #hunting #handloading #reloading #loaddevelopment #loaddev #grownostr #plebchain
