Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Ask The Gunwriters "kiss and find pressure"

Not enough contact, the marks are small, horizontal rectangles; too deep into the lands, vertical rectangles, running with the axis of the bullet.

This is not new stuff. It's been used for years by bench rest shooters, who sometimes jam their bullets pretty hard into the lands. For hunters, that's not so good, as unloading such a round can pull the bullet, dumping a bunch of loose powder in the rifle action.

The "square" engagement is sorta in between, touching without jamming. This degree of engagement won't pull the bullet.

Dirtfarmer:

Putting a bullet into the lands isn't news to me.

The square engagement deal totally is.

Thanks.

Hence use of the term "kiss"... not "jam"...

Although kissing and jamming do have other applications...

Just for Boxer, I do this thing:




Shot good too, unless I was just Imagining it.... grin...

COAL only matters for magazine length. Is that what you are showing here, or is this the measurement you are relying on for lands engagement?

haha, I don't think you want to bring up the "post your load" rant. Isn't everybody hitting 2700 with the 7-08 and amax now?

Indeed!

damn! Kansas is sucking hind tit

Yes they are, I hope they can make the comeback!

Why, whatever do you mean? I simply loaded it to the CORRECT specification for the cartridge. Look it up.

I am FAR too full of dumbphuckitude... and Imagination... plus my [bleep] is too stuck to the kouch.... to have ever considered locating the rifling of my rifles WRT cartridge OAL. Without, of course, the Guiding Light from the North that is the gentle and honorable Boxer, leading the way, spreading his exclusive firearms knowledge with dignity and grace and a [bleep] most assuredly not stuck to a kouch!

I'm pullin' for Kansas too; Kentucky has had a dynasty for so long I can't remember when they didn't start in the top 5.

well...they aint got nuthin' to be shamed of, they came back,but Kentuck won it in the first half...sigh...Calipari is probably my least favorite coach since...Tark...sigh

Jeff is just continuing to show his 'knowledge' of all matters pertaining to rifles/loading/shooting.

Post a chart Jeff.

Kansas got jammed and kissed.
Congrat Kentucky.
Earned every bit of it.

P

gracious of you wow...

Kentucky is a much better team. I'm surprised it was wasn't a blowout.

I hear good things,about said process.




tex',

The long list of things beyond your abilities and comprehension,would easily garner you a devoted chapter in the Guinness Book.

Congratulations?





tjm',

There's only ONE kind of a square and it's square.

The only thing I don't kiss squarely is 3-groovers and I've mentioned that more than often.

Wow.




'kenny,

It's old "news" that McMillan has no equal,let alone peer and only McMillan handles rate the Jolly Roger.

The 50fps increase ain't too difficult to suffer either and Critters are rather enamoured,which very obviously don't hurt results.

Hint.



'Pro,

Indeed square,do mean square.



Jeff-O,

You musta really had a full day,taking a single pic and all. If you ain't the sorriest of all the Do-Nothing Dumbphucks!

Allow me to fuel your Imagination,ala my day's foray and in no particular order except chronological. I'm sure you were riveted to both Jerry Springer and Oprah,as you polished your Pretend...though I digress.

Right proper Pinniped Feeding Frenzy,atop a Baby Whale carcass. I know,I know...it ain't nearly as intriguing as a Springer Paternity Test. Bless your heart.



Bird of Prey Feeding Frenzy,replete with passerby's such as yourself(Turd Polishing Scavengers fawning handouts/scraps).




Gotta love a fair sized tide and Monsoon/Hurricane action,to enthrall Uphillers to commit to Freshwater Forays. You might wanna bolt on sunglasses,so her Mirror Chromed reflection don't singe your crossed eyes.



May as well letcha' look at one up close,beings it's all new to you.



The only TV I got to watch today,was footage I shot with a new videocamera,as I run it through it's paces in a cacophony of weather conditions,that'd have you dead bolting all doors and fastening your seatbelt on the couch,as you donned your helmet. I did gun a few stills ala 1D3/17-40,as Ma' Nature shifted gears and blew schit out.

As per always,it's a treat to have you regale me with all the things you nearly did,with all the wares you nearly had and from all the places you've nearly been. Enjoyed the Imaginary Rifle particulars too,as I'm sure it is a Full Tilt sensation,spec'd as per your whim and leaving no stone unturned.

Give or [bleep] take. Laffin'!





'11,

She's simply demonstrating her stupidity,though obliviously...which really is quite a [bleep] amazing feat.





Calvin,

She's Light Years behind the curve,though I was/am groovin' on how she sputtered repeatedly how that most modest of reloading feats in question,was "impossible". Because she'd never even had seen said boolit,let alone be capable of opening a box they came in,let alone get so crazy as to actually shoot one.

Give her credit for staying her course...because despite it now being in vogue,she still ain't hit Fur with one.

Really tough to top World Class humor of that [bleep] epic proportion.

Not that I ain't hoping she don't go for it!




'NZ,

She simply does the best she can,with what very little she's got to work with and in all capacities. That she is oblivious to the depths of her Stupidity,is the only way it can work and she's REALLY workin' the schit outta it lately.

Funniest schit on the 'net,by multiple Universes!

The only error I see in all your postings here 'stick.... we all know Jeff doesn't need to don a helmet... he's always got one on... it's part of the window locker uniform...

Okay, So for clarity here. If said OAL with a kiss doesn't feed from the mag box ? You load to mag length minus say .015 for F/F, then do the same procedure ? Find pressure, and rock on....

Just thirsty I guess....
