cold shot

Hi ya Horsefly,, the pics of the bear was emailed to us by a friend. His first clue there was no dinner is that BBQ is empty and no fire goin..!!!Dave

Well,glad I'm logged in or I woulda missed this...Happy B-Day Rod...Dave

Here I am just waitin for dinner..Man!! I'm hungry.

 

 

 

Here I am, still waitin for dinner,,,,HELLO!!! anyone there??

 

I agree with clemson, the m48 is too short of an actin to do a 8-06. I use vz24's,k.kales and m98's. just my yakin..Dave

we shoot round nose jacketed in our win 94's so the cast should be fine if lubed and crimped..just my .035 worth..Dave

 

Howdy, guess I'll throw my 3.5 cents worth too. The timneys are great but my budget said otherwise,so I bought a bold optima,w/side saftey. It is adjusted to a nice 2.5lb pull with no creeping. I have shot rifles with timney and the pull was nice

and crisp..It's goin to be your choice, I would try to shoot as many rifles with different triggers as you to get the feel of each.

My hunting rifle has a modified mil trigger.It works just fine. If you are building a target rifle then I would change out to an aftermarket one. This is just one opinion of many...Dave

Hear, Hear, and raise the can high to salute the women of america for doin their part too.

 

I beleive it's our civic duty to support all who partake in this event..We should all write our

president, ask that this event be made an annual holiday..However We should request this to be a 3 day week end.

I know I'll be supporting this event, might even start drinking again too...Dave

thanks guys for thinkin of me. Yup, will have a great week end, Headin to Redding about 145 mi north of our place to the fil's house. Will bbq 3 -3.5 lb tri-tips, daughter made baked beans, 3 bean salad w/ cilantro and corn. Lots of sodas plus I'm playin the music on the keyboard, might even record it. I think the wife is takin pics,hope I don't break the camera. You all have a good week end, will see ya on monday...Dave

So, it's yer birthday, hope ya have many more. Have a good day sir..Hope ya git all ya want on this special

day...Dave

jeez guys, ya make me feel like the dull end of a bayo.I ain't got1/100th of the stuff you guys got, but then again I live in ca where if it ain't pc, it's agin the law. this is why when I retire in 6 years, I'm evictin myself from here.

hey plumbum, if, a bad dude (hopefully a gun nut) did get in there ,he'd still be there when the cops got there

havin too much fun checkin out what ya got...Thanks for makin my eyes tear up in envy bud..I needed that.

 

As for my guns they're in the hallway in 2 cabinets, We live in an apt, so a safe is outa the question,

It would probly fall thru the floor from the weight of the one I want...Dave Oh yeah, we live upstair.

Hey Ron E, I found a pink flip flop the other day. wonder would that work. bet I'd get some funny staring huh. All jokes aside, you gave me a good idea..thanks..Dave

Hello Brian, all my reamers have the size stamped on them..ie: the 8mm says 8x57 mauser. the 8-06 ditto. I

Hope Z1R will chime in here,he's a gunsmith and could tell ya better than me. I don't have my 8x57 reamer at the moment to take a measurement for you....Dave PS. I looked in my book, the lenght of neck portion of the 8x57 is .319 " long..Maybe that's what he measured.

Oh wow, a vz24 gone bad!!! Tell ya what Karl, I'll take it off your hands a retrain it to behave if ya want...I'll introduce it to a well mannered vz24 and turk....Just bein a good neighbor here...Dave

Hey AZ, muzzle flashes at night are always a sight to see..Sorta like a flame thrower spittin a out

a lugie...Have fun bud....Dave

Hey Bob,like the dog,oh and the gun too. I like my vz24 as.

 

Hi DT, Like your yugo. I have one that's rechambered to the 8-06.

Throws them 185 rem pspcl's at 2850 w/med load. Haven't had the chance for bear

yet, but the 8mm' are killer for Russian boar out here. enjoy your hunt.

Wished I was goin.

Happy Birthday to ya Don, How old are ya now,?/ Old enough I hope.

Hey Dave, i think I have an extra fz rcbs die w/ring for 8x57. Lemme look and if I do you can have it . Dave

Good Day at work .Goin to the range again tomorrow for some R&D of a new play toy I'm workin on..Will keep ya informed on the progress. The 7x57 is gettin a new chamberin to an improved shoulder ..60 degs. will be testing the rds tomorrow...

Ya'll have a good week end,...Dave Ps got some reamers to finish the 8-08 chamber. will do this next week end..

UP DATED> Went to the range today with the 7x57...Just fire forming some brass..What sweet loads they were.:

130gr Lee casts pushed by 20grs of RX7 and kicked off with a Fed 215 primer. I swear the recoil was less than a 22-250 with a 60gr round.Only had 50rds loaded, have brass coming so will load 200rds. Next time the wife better bring the camera....Even with the right shoulder in a little pain stretching the arm, it was a GOOD day....Dave
