jpx2rk replied to Hozzie's topic in Competitive Shooting Sports
I shot my first ARA match at ORSA last Saturday, Had a blast, met some really nice and helpful guys there who were willing to answer all my questions. Plan on doing it next year when the schedule starts back up. Hope you have a good turn out. -

Gallatin Gun Club License To Operate at Steam Plant (Since 1962) TERMINATED
jpx2rk replied to GS455's topic in General Chat
Has a timeline been established by TVA on this, or any other details??? -
I too was very frustrated with the first half, and turned the channel thinking the game was over at half time. Turned it back over to see how the third qtr went and enjoyed the second half much more. Vols still need to play FOUR quarters of ball tho. I even watched the replay last night. LOL

Why is the CDC issuing this report, shouldn't the TBI or Dept of Safety (someone in LE) be the correct ones to determine or classify accidental versus negligent??

Shooter reportedly was fired in the meeting with the 2 supervisors per Knoxville noon news. The female supervisor who was killed was retired, but had come back to help train some other employees in HR related issues I assume but do not know for sure.

I've seen some guys using xmas paper at the range myself, but they had the plain white side (no grids) and used it as the background for a grid target when sighting in rifles. The large white paper covers up all the other holes in the backer board so it's easier to see that first shot on a new scope and adjust from there.

I kinda of figured that would be your response on the NF but had to ask anyways. Thanks.
-
Nice rifle & shooting. Can you give a comparision between the NF and say the Weaver 36T? I'm considering an Anshultz MPR for fun and games at the local club, and just wondering if there is a significant difference. I have no experience with either scope as of yet.
-
Thanks for the info. Guess I will warm up my "google fu" and see what I can find. Thanks again.
-
Thanks for the suggestions, will look for some different brands of ammo and try that. I was/am wanting to check the head space myself or by a GS rather than just having to send the rifle back to Savage without having a decent idea of what was wrong with it in the first place. Be a good learning experience for me anyways. Any special tools needed to strip the bolt down like you suggested?

Somewhat surprised, but not really. Big banks like WF & BOA, etc., have monthy, quarterly, annual sales and growth quotas as part of their budgets. If dept's don't meet their portion of the goal(s), then they get poor annual evaluations, no raises, etc. Large banks also have incentive plans for employees so if they open up xx number of new credit card accts, they get a $xx bonus or something. Article references "robust internal controls", uh no.

First trip to the range with the new gun, all factory ammo, no reloads and was getting some raised primers, and that was the suggestion to me from a forum dedicated to this caliber. Fiocchi 40 & 32 gr vmax ammo, the 40 gr had numerous raised primers and the 32 gr had some as well but not near the extent of the 40gr load. This the 40 gr, the round in the center is an unfired round Here are the 32gr rounds, the round on top so to speak is unfired Suggestions welcome.

Anybody have a set of go/no go gauges I can borrow or use. I live in between Knoxville and Chattanooga, or know of a smith that has a set in the area that I can make a visit to??

check for local tourneys, most are catch and release, but they might have some leftovers that might help. GL

Sight solution for Long and short range
jpx2rk replied to ReeferMac's topic in Firearms Gear and Accessories
If you want to see what a 4x scope (22lr) or a 3x9 will do at various distances, let me know. I can meet you any time. -
I prefer the +P's in my 4" for practice and such, easier on this old fart.

Policy wonk proposes practically eliminating cash
jpx2rk replied to Hershmeister's topic in General Chat
Credit card companies are making all their money/profits on those people who use their plastic way too much, buy too much because of the "I'll pay for it next month or over a couple months", and it never happens. That $50 purchase on the plastic turns out to be about a $75-100 purchase after adding the interest they paid, along with all the other $50 purchases they made on the plastic. CC companies also make $$ on those late charges, ever notice that your payment due date is probably due on a Saturday or Sunday now. Take a look at your statement. They don't process payments on weekends. I sold a car in June, and the guy said he would bring a cashiers check and I knew the bank he uses well, but requested cash instead as I did not know him other than meeting him when he test drove the car. He brought cash w/o issue. Met the guy at a local bank for safety reasons, did the deal, and we parted ways. Cash will never go away, some people don't believe in credit cards because they know they will get into financial trouble (debt) and can't pay for all of those "spur of the moment" purchases, or have already traveled down that road with a CC and are working their way out of it, or went thru bankruptcy because of a CC or multiple CC's, and can't get a CC now. -
I'm thinking there is a cute girl already in the picture (sights), and he's wanting to make a good impression BEFORE he does all the stupid stuff. LOL

Care to expand on the "whole handgun" issue?? LOL Anyone who likes to tinker with stuff is gonna lose/misplace stuff, or have "leftovers". LOL

Federal AutoMatch Target 325 Round Bulk Packs 22 LR- $18.74

Is this a nationwide deal or just local? -
Check out navionics.com for their phone app. I had it on an earlier phone and it would tell you the distance from A to B, speed, etc. Even has water depths, etc, creek channels, etc. Never used it on a river, but did use on some lakes in my kayak. The speed is not 100% accurate, but will give you an accurate estimate, etc.
