Re: Annealing question

The purpose for annealing isn't for making the brass last longer, that's a side benefit. I freely admit I thought that was the whole purpose. What is the use in doing it then? Uniform neck tension loading to loading is the main other reason. Dead on! When I was shooting hundreds of rounds a week I did a number of tests on accuracy. I've posted before on this. The second reload after annealing was the most consistently accourate. I annealed after the 5th reload and started the process again. After that the brass is just too hard for good neck tension. The first reload was never the most accurate. I surmised that another (2nd) sizing uniformed the neck tension a bit. Never tried resizing twice without firing on a first reload. After second reload, accuracy started tailing off due to hardening. On belted cases seldom got more the 11-12 reloads before you could feel the bump of incipient head separation at which point I'd start with another batch. Serious hunting loads were always on the second reload. Never a problem.

300 WSM ? awesome low recoil choice for the gals & kids in the family, for typical moose hunting distances, have 3 Tikka T3's in 300 WSM for the kids, all have killed moose that put them in the 60" club
still don't see how grown adult men bitch about recoil in a 300 WSM ! a true WTF ? moment every time I hear or see that nonsense, watched the 14 year old, 90 lb kid empty a box of 200 gr hot handloads without any complaints, then ya see guys crying about factory 180 gr recoil .... makes no sense

Re: Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Model: So Hot

Here I thought the SI model was going to be a Transformer. Turns out it’s just a slab of Pork. This world (well America) has become one sad arse place the last 5-7 decades. Toxic masculinity, instagram famous, YouTube sensation. Sometimes I think global warming isn’t happening fast enough. I wonder if the Dinosaurs became a bunch of apologetic, pansy arse Leftist LIEberals before they were wiped out????
I surfed past one of those YouTube “shows”, where some pretty, Asian 20 something girl, was bragging to the panel about how she “F Ed” a bunch of Instagram employees to get her account unlocked. She seemed proud of it, and the “men”’on the panel (are they really men?) thought it was great. Back in my day, that made you a dirty whore!

Renegade50 had a rat snake spiral climb his porch posts and eat all the hatchlings of a robin nest.
He let it eat all the babies then chopped the snake up with a shovel. 🤣🤣🤷🏻♂️💀☠️🏴☠️👺

only metal ive painted was an offshore drilling rig.
2 part International or Carboline brand paint.
used a siphone (wash down) gun.
where i work now they use a PPG brand paint. not sure if its 1 part or 2 part. We paint the inside of chiller parts with Carboline 2 part coal tar epoxy. Holy mess. We slop it on with brushes and Lord help you if you get it on you, you’re wearing it off.

I’m surprised this is still here given the high demand several weeks back and way higher gun broker prices. Very neat little rifle! Agreed. I already have one, but am seriously tempted to pick this one up to.
