Been a BUSY few weeks. CERT Training is over next week, got to spend a few nights training with one of the Paramedics, put out some fires (which btw, you'd be surprised how much fire you can put out with a single can). Each of the 12 or so class members put out a decent sized camp fire fueled with diesel and used motor oil and wood.... all with ( Read more... )

Friday and Saturday were spent at SIG Academy for the Advanced Long Range Precision Rifle course. As many know I've had a bumpy ride with this particular build and in the end it came down to flawed optics (3 different scopes)... With the help of the builders, we got Nightforce to upgrade my glass for free. Now, instead of running the original 8- ( Read more... )

Just a random update with current happenings. The ATACR NF scope is on the way, so in the mean time I removed the loaner and boxed it all up for shipment back to AO. Spent a good portion of the day annealing Brass (150) so far. It's easier than I had first thought and built an attachment for the cordless drill to make the job easier. 1/2" ( Read more... )

Well, today was a pretty eventful day, Started with a range trip with my Neighbor... Had a lot of fun, Got to do plenty of shootin!. AR functioned as expected, same with his. 8mm Mauser, dropped the first 5 into about a 6" circle at 100, so not too shabby for what it is, recoil was less than I had expected, still has a nice push to it, but it ( Read more... )
