  Jesus and His apostles were people who were very liked by many, but hated by a lot of people as well. Why was it they were hated by many? It wasn’t because they were unlikable people. It wasn’t because they were mean or rude. It wasn’t because Jesus and the Apostles didn’t care about people. They were hated by many because they told the truth and many people do not want to hear the truth. I find it interesting that you never see Jesus just seeking approval of man in the Bible. While Jesus did many miracles that were very popular with the people such as healing the sick (Matthew 9:35) each and every miracle was for a purpose. Jesus did not do these miracles simply to gain approval of those around Him. That however does not mean that there were not some who liked Jesus. People in the Bible always seemed to either have a love or hate relationship with Jesus. From a child Jesus grew in favor with many people (Luke 2:52) yet at the same time others grew to hate Jesus. We know that Jesus lived a perfect life, therefore everything He did was righteous and correct. There were times that He spoke gently to those around Him and times that He spoke very harshly. There were times when even His disciples quit following Him (John 6:66-69) and other times when great multitudes followed Him (Matthew 8:1). Yet one thing that remained consistent in Jesus’ life was His stand for truth. Jesus didn’t back down from truth regardless of who was in His presence. Jesus presented truth just the same in the presence of the lowliest peasant to the highest Jewish leaders. From the children who loved Him to the Roman rulers. Jesus presented truth with love and without apology. Jesus presented this truth knowing that He was the only one who could do so and that the world was lost without His willingness to do so. Can you imagine how different Jesus would have been if He had tried to seek the approval of man while on earth? Jesus could have changed His message and He would have been the most popular person ever. Almost everyone would have approved of Him. Yet had Jesus changed His message ANY to gain approval of men He would have lost His approval of God. Who’s approval are we looking for in life? Are we looking for man’s approval? If so that approval is achievable if we are willing to compromise. Yet if we are seeking God’s approval, the only way to do so is to stand firmly for truth and never compromise. Doing so will leave us hated by some and loved by others. Standing for truth will make us unpopular by those who despise truth and want to crush truth. Yet it is truth that will set the world free (John 8:32). It is truth that brings salvation. It is truth that leads to eternal life. Anything but truth, and any compromise of truth will lead to eternal punishment. We as Christians must give up trying to seek the approval of man and simply teach the truth in a way it can be understood. We as Christians must realize that when we speak the truth, some will love it and some will hate it. Yet when we speak the truth, we are right with God, and we are leading others to Him as well.

  @donnie said in What do you see in your bore scope and what does it mean: Where can I find this on the PR website? Home page > Library > YouTube @donnie said in What do you see in your bore scope and what does it mean: so I don’t know why I would be seeing fire cracking due to high pressure? Just because you've never seen it before... doesn't mean it isn't 100% normal. Every single barrel with any appreciable round count with every single cartridge has that kind of geography in the throat. If the rifle is still shooting well, then ignore what you see. A bore scope is what you whip out to SOLVE PROBLEMS. You don't pull them out to look, get freaked out, and create problems. ;) The hotter the load, the worse it will be... but this will happen eventually with even the most mild cartridges and the most mild loads.

  2018-12-11 Groups 7.62(20) 4 x 4 rd groups prone avg = .77 7.62(20) 4 x 4 rd groups prone avg = 0.56 Issues 01 - Suppressor came loose during the first set, causing a 1.5 group which threw off the avg. If I don't catch the issue before I shoot the group I still count the group. 02 - Bipod came loose creating a 0.88 group, I caught that after the first group (after the second group counting the sighter group) but didn't catch the suppressor issue till the third group .. asleep at the wheel ! 03 - Trigger is 3.5 lb ... for the last shot of the last group I was squeezing away and nothing was happening ... so I decided to check the safety and moved my head and the round went off :D ... == For the 6.5 no groups today, the suppressor was loose but also the buffer tube was loose ... gotten tighten some sh^t down !! Caught those issues before shooting, since I shot the bolt gun first, I decided to do some checking on the stoner ! If I can minimize the "stupid stuff" ... I think at least 0.66 groups are possible and 0.50 will be the new stretch goal for 2019. The cumulative avg for the 7.62(20) + Bravo is 0.60 from prone.

  I like Dillon presses, but you need to be loading a lot to make it worth it. I have a couple of 550’s and a 1050. The 1050 will really crank out some ammo and has provisions for powder check. It primes on the pull so you don’t have to push to prime. It also swages so you don’t have to worry about mil brass which is sometimes an issue with 9mm. The 1050 is only good if you are either loading one caliber only, or if you are loading several thousand at a time. It takes about 45 minutes to do a complete caliber change...especially if primer size needs to be changed. The 550’s are what I do most of my pistol loading on. I have one for small primer and one for large. I can change out calibers in under a minute. Each caliber has toolhead, dies, and powder measure attached. I don’t load 1000’s at a time, so these are great and much faster than single stage. I can do about 400 an hour if all goes smooth. The 650 is between the two, but not worth it in my opinion. Either get the 550 or step all the way up to the 1050.

  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.

  First round pop is certainly nothing you're doing wrong. I feel like it's something liberty is doing wrong. Thunderbeast 22 Takedown is the only rimfire suppressor I recommend.

  I can personally attest to TS customs forgiving chambering. He chambered my 7LRM for my DT. After running 100 rounds through it I started load development 10 thou off the lands using the very same method Greg posted here, I literally found a 1/4” load in my first round of testing. I found another low priced 7LRM barrel from a very well known smith so I purchased it. I about pulled my hair out trying to develop a load for that barrel using the exact same method. Made a believer out of me!

  @bull81 enjoy! One of the problems with goulash is there are so many variants of it. Growing up, my family always added whatever veggies we had on hand. Most of the time it was corn, carrots and beans of some kind. A friend's family made it without any veggies and they made it more of a BBQ flavor. So you may want to 'play around' with the spices and veggies (if adding any at all) to find what you like most.

  @rhyno said in Good Cop/Bad Cop: I remember seeing this video a few (seems like) years ago now. https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2018/12/staff-writer/motorcyclist-receives-65000-settlement-after-viral-police-misconduct-video/ I suspect as we will see more and more people armed with cameras as time moves forward. This reminds me of a previous similar incident in Maryland: I don't know if everybody recalls the whole set of events after this incident, but the bike rider posted the video on YouTube. Then the cops tried to strong-arm him into dropping his misconduct charges by raiding his home on a grand jury warrant for felony wiretapping and confiscating his computers and a bunch of other stuff. Maryland is a 2-party consent state, so since he posted the video with sound, and the cop did not give consent, they said he was guilty of illegal wiretapping. A judge eventually threw out the wiretapping charges stating that a police officer acting in plain sight had no expectation of privacy, but you know his life and finances were probably destroyed by the chaos and BS. The Thin Blue Line at work, every cop in the system covering every other cop in the system no matter how egregious their conduct.
