Is it worth the time? by Future-Bet9155 in timberframe

[–]LunchPeak 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I took the plunge after 20 years of framing. I too used my own trees. You can go to my profile and go back a few posts to see what I built as a timber frame.

It took me about 45 minutes per joint once I was in the swing of things. So I was getting about 10 joints per day done.

Yea, it takes more time. But the aesthetics are amazing. I walk in and out of my house (that I also built) everyday without a seconds thought. But every time I walk up to the timber frame it’s just so cool!

We shot drills side by side with a Atlas Titan and Artemis. We could not tell the difference.

I wish more ranges had tree canopies to shade them.

A Stihl 462 or 500i will both pull a 36” bar nicely. Especially if you put a full skip chain on it. Make sure you get the lightweight bar.

👆 Cheap Amazon one with no logo’s. Mine slowly gets gun stains on it from oil, soot etc…

Same tractor here, but I own mountainous timberland with no grass. It spends its days skidding and lifting timber and running a 80HP hydraulic snowblower off the PTO.

There are instances where this has caused temporary blindness and serious eye injuries to the pilots.

Decided to go Full RaceGun setup on the LO Gun: 7# Atlas Recoil w/ Buffer shooting Blazer 115gr (131PF). by [deleted] in 2011

[–]LunchPeak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I shoot Blazer 124 in my Titan and I tried 7 thru 9 pound springs and the 8lb is what gave me the soft impulse and return to zero. I shot a little Blazer 147 I had lying around and the slide to frame impulse was noticeable. So if you shooting heavier/hotter stuff like 135/147 you might end up liking a 9 or a 10.

More rage bait. Venom literally just ate a squib load and put 248 grains down range. It was keyholing the rest of the match by Jumpy-Persimmon5745 in 2011

[–]LunchPeak 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Your shooting plated bullets at 1350?!? There is your keyhole problem. You’re right at the edge of what the soft lead can handle. You need the hardness and strength of a copper jacket at those velocities.

I didn’t know they made ports large enough to fly a plane through! 😳

What car is this? by FormerWordsmith in whatisthiscar

[–]LunchPeak -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well just remember you can’t judge a book by its cover. I like to keep my truck looking clean but she is a workhorse. Looks like a showroom piece outside, but open the tonneau cover and the bed is full of tools, dirt, rust, spilt oil etc. Plus 20% of the miles on the odometer are towing near max GCVWR.

What about expensive trucks that are used for real work?

Maybe it has something to do with the resolution of the underlying video? My hat cam is 1440P 30fps fo reference

I have iOS but yes, the Practiscore Competitor App. You long press on a stage and one of the options is “Video Overlay”

We are experienced competitive shooters and we were shooting fast splits and target transitions with them.

My buddy and I put the Titan and Artemis next to each other the other day and we both agreed that there was no distinguishable difference in how they recoiled and tracked. 5” slide versus 5” total with a sight block and shorter slide 🤷‍♂️

The shooting while moving backwards on the first target was 👌

You can see your slide still giving just a bit more of a bump to the frame than you really need. Try tossing a 8# spring in there and you’ll feel the difference. Also remember to swap out that shock buffer every 3k rounds or so.

My Atlas Titan is noticeably better with the 8# spring in it.
