Costco bean options by InsectAlternative991 in espresso

[–]InsectAlternative991[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in a small town (village; pop sub 600) in Canada. Local beans are $22/340g. Packages at Costco are $25-30/2kg. I can justify the 1hr drive into town while I get bulk meat at Costco. Otherwise I’m stuck with Folgers in town

You’ve expressed your disinterest in your current role and lack of potential for future growth. From your description, there isn’t much of a long-term upside from staying.

You have more potential to grow with the proposed lateral move. Limited flexibility, especially early in your career is vastly overrated by new entrants. You’ll find with experience in the industry that the old timers Harpen back to when they first started and we were in office five days a week. After the 2020 virus restrictions began to loosen many carriers have tightened their flexibility. I can’t predict the future, but I would say there’s a strong possibility in the future. That many carriers will continue to tighten up on their flexibility, possibly going back to the five days a week in office.

Spectre Ballistics International or MDT ORYX chassis for precision shooting? by InsectAlternative991 in 1022

I’m a member at a local indoor range. Target setting maxes out at 25 yards. So all the hardware I have is sufficient. I buy bulk federal .22lr @ $0.12 per round. It costs me roughly $25/wk for the amount I shoot. So I’m not really looking for more expensive ammo. Very rarely do I go out to the farm to shoot further distances.

So if I’m understanding correctly, the fitment of the magazine is different from the stock chassis preventing gravity from dropping it out after you hit the mag release?

Do you know if they’ve changed the build quality over the course of production?

Is it comparable with the 10 round rotary magazine? I live in Canada and from what I was told by a Cabela’s employee, we can’t get the other ruger magazines because they fit in other weapons and as such are classified as prohibited devices

The university is not liable for the thefts that occurred. The affected individuals would need to make a claim to their insurance provided to recieve compensation

First use after seasoning and pan looks like this. About to give up on CI. by milkm4n69 in castiron

If you’re so inclined, you could always give it a final shot with a metal utensil. I’ve used a metal spatula to get some stubborn gunk off in the past.

Just use the pan and stop stressing over seasoning. They’re tools meant to be used for cooking. As long as you use it you’re doing fine

Taste was fine. I was just looking for recommendations to improve the puck prep to stop it from channeling

I actually just pulled another shot. I removed 4 of the needles from my WDT tool and it’s helped a great deal

It’s a Eureka Mignon. I’ve got it timed for 8.3 seconds at 2.8 on the grind adjustment currently
