  I have thousands of rounds logged down range, but nearly all of it is 6.5 Creedmoor and .223AI. While they provide me with enough recoil to proof my firing position, I wanted to see how far I've advanced in terms of managing the recoil of a magnum. It has been some time since I've shot anything larger than a 6.5 Creedmoor on paper, so rather than hogging all the fun @orkan let me do some shooting today during the load development of 3 different DT barrels. I was pretty excited to see the results as these groups are less than half the size of my last attempt at a magnum, and were my first shots of the day as well. Orkan sure knows his reloading and hats off to @tscustoms as these are the first few rounds to take the trip down these barrels!

  I should note that the TT525P that's on here had the zero set for factory ammo through the 300WM barrel, and wasn't adjusted when swapping barrels.

  First up was a 300WM barrel (left) and then a 7LRM barrel (right)
  

  Then we worked up a load for a 300 Norma Mag barrel.

  My Colt's blueing is pretty bad in a few areas from years of neglect, from gone to tiny rust spots. I am wondering if anyone has tried to Parkerizing a pistol themselves, and if so how did it turn out? I am capable of doing things myself, complete disassembly, prep work, bead blasting etc. Not to worried about it not being original, it's not going anywhere. I just don't want to make the effort if the "do it yourself Parkerizing" looks like crap, in the end.

  Indeed, and apparently I should have done it sooner.

  Oh well, all set for now I think, I'll probably have to get some new/more chokes to full the gaps though.

  Sad story behind this Anschutz add.

  http://www.targettalk.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=55679

  Daughter decided not to shoot at the collegiate level.
  Probably a lost cause.
  I feel for him.
  Tragic loss of potential.

  Hopefully she is getting married to a great guy and starting a family instead of joining the SJW Resistance.

  The rifle can be saved though.

  I posted it just to show another site to check.

  I would not even be able to make out that target at 100 yards without my glasses. Nice shooting!

  This isn't a new philosophy, but a smart one.

  The rule has always been spoken like this: Never shoot in a boil.

  In other words, when the mirage appears to be going straight up... wait.

  Edited to add: I watched the video in it's entirety and he explains things pretty well.

  I have not had much luck, I have only found this and I still think I shoot a bigger one that was in front and these two were behind. Well I guess this is what happens when the stupid legislation only allows the aid of a flashlight to hunt at night... you just have a second or less since turning on the light to search them, to aim, to decide to shoot or not.

  Ammo used federal fusion 150g, distance 120m, one shot two kills and a wounded one that must be inside the impenetrable bushes there.

  Donald Trump, Queen
  Elizabeth and Vladimir Putin all died and, as former world
  leaders, were being given a tour of hell.

  While there, they saw a red phone and asked what the
  phone was for. The devil told them it is for calling back to
  Earth.

  Putin asks to call Russia and talks for 5 minutes.
  When he is finished the devil informs him that the cost is a
  million dollars, so Putin writes him a check.

  Next Queen Elizabeth calls England and talks for 30
  minutes. When she is finished the devil informs her that
  the cost is 6 million dollars, so she writes him a check.

  Finally Trump gets his turn and talks for 4 hours.
  When he is finished the devil informs him that the cost is $5.00.

  When Putin hears this he goes ballistic and asks the
  devil why Trump got to call USA so cheaply. The devil
  smiled and replied: "When Obama was President the
  country went to hell, so it's a local call."

  Due to low population density, there probably aren't as many useful items in flea markets where you live. Here, there are even cast iron stoves to be had. Many are turned into lawn ornaments as flower planters.
  I have my grandparents old pot belly cast iron heater with a single eye on top.
  My Father has a miniature salesman's Cast Iron stove and oven that I think you would like.
  It is about 8"X10" and the burner covers are about the size of a half Dollar coin.
  He goes to a lot of Estate Sales and keeps some things and sells others.
  He has nearly a hundred old wood Irwin style hand brace drill bits.

  He has also a hand cranked cream separator for raw milk.

  The sad thing about Appalachian History is how few of the young people give a darn about preserving it.
  Meth, Oxy, Heroine, or Pot and Facebook and making out of wedlock babies is about all they care about.

  The few exceptions you find are rare.

  My Father is originally from the Okefenokee Swamp area of GA and Florida.
  Different terrain but similar rural lifestyle.
  I am the first generation to have indoor plumbing since birth.

  In addition to having all the TSA and Baggage handlers messing with my stuff! And knowing California they probably have more BS when I came back, and there is no way in hell I would even think of bringing my AR-15!
