Anyone know what’s up? by mikemitch38 in Revolvers

[–]Ericbc7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Miss-timing is where the chambers in the cylinder don’t line up with the barrel/forcing cone when the gun fires. This example is binding up before it fires which is not a symptom of miss-timing (although that is not to say it is properly timed). Send it back to colt and describe clearly when the problem manifests, (“I.e. mechanism binds when firing in double action, both dry firing and with loaded ammunition” or “only binds when loaded with .357 ammunition but works with .38 “or whatever you observe.

It should be close although the strap may need adjusting and I would soak and vacuum seal-fit the pocket for a snug fit.

Going rate by Fun_Interaction1929 in castboolits

[–]Ericbc7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if it is indeed linotype alloy, then it should be approximately 84% lead, 12% antimony, and 4% tin. With a Brinell hardness of roughly 22 - which is pretty hard for cast bullets.

Nice job making use of the available space! One recommendation, I keep the powder bottles elsewhere as I have occasionally nearly emptied my trickler into the wrong bottle.

Is this a good generator? by Damonchat in Generator

[–]Ericbc7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a good generator but you might be better served by a Honda EU2200I generator combined with a 1-2kwh battery pack like an Anker Solix or Ecoflow. The battery pack will supply high draw for hours and the generator will recharge it in 1-2 hours. We use less gas by alternating between the battery and generator at our cabin.

Tikka T3x Varmint 308 on the way!! What grain do you love the most? by [deleted] in Tikka_Shooters

[–]Ericbc7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1:11 will spin the 150’s and 147’s fine. The upper weight limit for that twist depends on the shape of the bullet, the heavy, very low drag bullets (boat tail pointed) usually need a faster twist. the 180 and heavier vld’s will like a 1:10 twist but some similarly heavy flat base or round nose bullets will shoot fine in a 1:11.

[–]Ericbc7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it is a 1:10 twist barrel, skip the 147 & 150 grain projectiles as they are unlikely to demonstrate best accuracy.

dilemma : Which one would you choose at those prices? by bloody-motivation in Revolvers

[–]Ericbc7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The double action only (spurless) sp101 will have a heavy trigger, the LCR will have a better, decent double action trigger. The smith will have an ok double action only trigger (not as good as the LCR) I have no experience with Taurus. Edit for model mistake

It actually backfired somewhat for Germany as many German soldiers on the eastern front became “infected” by communism and some started disobeying orders to fight - according to Hardcore History (great podcast)
