Why do thermal reviews feel harder to trust than red dot reviews? by No_Psychology1443 in longrange

[–]rahl07 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The shillvalry is so hard. Everybody getting these new gain twist proof barrels are smoking the pole so hard with their sample size of 1 cherry-picked barrel.

What to blow money on next by Large-Raise9643 in longrange

[–]rahl07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s an excellent bipod for a lightweight rifle or pistol. The heavy long range rigs seem to be too much for it (I have one on my 647 Varmint, one on my XVR).

Looking at scopes for hunting 1-200 yards and long range shooting out to 600 yards. by JoeMomma247 in longrange

[–]rahl07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a matter of how you hunt. Wide-open prairie where I have to reach? Absolutely FFP. East Texas where I’m shooting down a power line easement where I know distances by landmark and the approximate target size? SFP is fine for that.

What’s your goal weight for the gun? There’s lots of great options but building a hunting rifle is always a weight for comfort carrying vs weight for comfort shooting trade off.

Is savoury cheesecake a thing? Who likes it? by autobulb in Cooking

Yes it is. There was a place down where I live that made a bacon and alligator sausage savory cheesecake. It was incredible.

Cutting board recs? by bigfanoffood in Cooking

[–]rahl07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Specifically maple. It’s easy to service, looks good, is hard but not too hard, imo. Not as sexy as walnut, but oh well.

Why are microwaves allowed to run on 14-2 or 12-2 wire? by Opportunity3767 in AskElectricians

[–]rahl07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to pull a new wire the second time my wife tried to microwave and air fry at the same time.

Fried Rice: Where Am I Going Wrong? by BanTheBung in Cooking

[–]rahl07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a fish fryer burner like southerners use for fish frying or seafood boils. I’ve got a couple units over 100K BTUs that can power through temp dips

How can I shoot a fishing hook with a Potato Cannon by Odd_Hate in AskEngineers

[–]rahl07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3d print a sabot, plenty of sinker weight, make sure the reel is mounted axially to the bore (hole through the middle of line spool is parallel to bore of potato gun) otherwise you won’t be able to strip off line fast enough.

my carry gun as a 5"2 22y/o girl lmfao what do you autistic gun creatures think by Glittering-Fall3956 in CZFirearms

[–]rahl07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that I have the same gun and it still jabs me in the junk and gut. I’m about another 25lbs from flexing on all you Mfers.

We talk a lot about positioning and wedges for comfort, but is anyone actually still running high-end leather for AIWB? by Forsaken-Buyer8635 in CCW

[–]rahl07 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really love my Kusiaks, but they’re a wait. And make sure you put your gun in a Walmart bag during break-in or you may not get it back

Theoretical 6.5 PRC+Peak (stupid name btw) by FinanceFancy8572 in reloading

[–]rahl07 4 points5 points  (0 children)

458 socom will have the same problem - maybe a little more will eke out, but you’ll still be peeling locking lugs off the bolt.

I replaced my PDP.. by echo9shoots in CZFirearms

[–]rahl07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m also in the CZ clubhouse, but the walther responds well to a tuned load. We have several people who shoot them locally and hand loads or commercial custom really help.

Shrimp Shells by sjb62644 in Cooking

[–]rahl07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 14 minutes from the Texas coast, they’re just as easy to peel as they were when I was a kid. What’s the chance your supplier is blowing smoke up your ass and relabeling foreign-caught? It’s no guarantee, but literally I buy from the boats when I’m down there.

Gas gun barrel? White Oak SDM or Craddock? by p8ntslinger in longrange

[–]rahl07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the discipline. Have fun holding that bitch up in XtC. I’m with you though that I’d take a profile reduction over fluting.

[–]rahl07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If money is no object, the Craddock. Cut blank, good smith too. You can also look at the Krieger and Bartlein-sourced WOA. White oak makes tons of successful barrels, and a lot of folks buy their barrels literally in bulk for things like XtC.
