    Worlds longest shot challenge pics.

    I'm mostly standing on Dad's shoulders with my "tumbling" comment... I'm no expert when it comes to exterior ballistics. My very limited understanding is that when passing through the sound barrier, the shock wave (although kind of a small shock wave for a slippery little bullet) tends to...

    That's a pretty fair amount of sideways wind to deal with.

    Flashlight talk

    I've watched a few of their flash sales- I've never seen anything gone within the first 20 minutes.

    Amazon's known for it's easy returns, right? :)

    Flashlight talk

    I think that's the one.... Stolen from their email: Protect your life and your family without breaking the bank. You only have 2 hours and we WILL SELL OUT. Tonight is the night! The 1200 lumen PL-2 Valkyrie weapon light is 40% off from 7:00-9:00 PM EDT.! Thats right, you get a 1200 lumen...

    Different light than the one you mentioned (I think- I don't know the product line very well).

    Flashlight talk

    I think they have a "flash sale" on a weapon light tonight too- 40% off or something (didn't pay a lot of attention to the email).

    Worlds longest shot challenge pics.

    Sounds awesome... I'd love to see a Cheytac in the mix. I don't know what the temperature range is supposed to be like there, but I don't see anyone with their ammo in coolers (just for temperature stability). That's one of the highpower shooter things you normally see... although these guys...

    I was mostly kidding- I assumed there was a pistol class or something. I can't believe it's in .223. No way that's staying supersonic at that kind of yardage. Tumbling bullets don't track well.

    1. I see someone has my backpack ;) 2. Who's the smartass that brought a pistol? 3. No wind flags??

    CMP Talladega Equipment List

    A few sample topics that came to mind: Bug spray... there were giant, menacing clouds of gnats... you should bring industrial strength bug spray. Toilet paper... the stuff in the clubhouse is made from whisps of fairy wings... you should bring industrial strength toilet paper. Pickled eggs...

    CMP Talladega Equipment List

    Ok.... For all of those that have made the pilgrimage to the great Talladega CMP Range: What would you do differently on your second trip? For instance, I understand that you can't bring too much ammo with you. And given the electronic scoring, I feel like a spotting scope is probably...

    Rail for a barrel with pinned gas block

    I had no idea.

    Rail for a barrel with pinned gas block

    Well, I've never seen that particular combination before. Odd at least-

    .224 Valkyrie

    Well, the real wildcat'ers out there tend to like making their own brass and doing all the reloading. That's half the fun of shooting something that no one else has. Today's "wildcat" rounds tend to come in a box- and they're expensive. I remember Dad talking about being the only guy at the...

    Anti-Drone 37mm Round

    Yeah- I'm not so good with words sometimes. Funny thing is, those damn joke rounds are showing up in the follow up emails they send- "Hey, looks like you're forgetting about something"... bastards. Rub it in.

    9310 or C158

    Admittedly, I haven't really looked into the difference. That said, I highly doubt I will run an AR bolt to failure given my ammo budget and the few guns that budget is spread between. Given modern metallurgy, both are probably pretty darn good... at least compared to metals made 48 years...

    G34 MOS or aftermarket milled slide?

    I think I'm sold on sending mine off to be milled to fit the RMR I already have. Thanks everyone for the advice- Now after I get all this work done, and still don't shoot any faster, I'll post a new thread about some other piece of equipment.
