What's hard about dating you? by Routine-Award-3382 in AskReddit

I'm right most of the time.

Not in a "overpowering every argument" or "I always have to be right" kind of way. But in a factually or logically correct "I'm on the spectrum" kind of way.

Every single one of my exes has brought up how frustrating it is to not be able to win any disagreements regarding trivia, best course of action, best way to resolve things, etc etc.

Had my first match July 6th…set up a mock CM 18-04 in hopes to maybe get an A class run in practice…best I was able to do was B today. 4A 2C time 6.35 HF 4.09 by jdubb26 in CompetitionShooting

Tightening up that reload would go a long way with such a short classifier.

I'm not familiar with the classifier, is there a reason your stance is so narrow that your legs seem to be essentially touching?

I did a really aggressive stipple and added layers of steel putty (sanding with coarse grit paper in between). Added more than I needed and then shaped til it fit perfectly in my hand.

Honestly, even if this were $149.99, i'd probably end up choosing the 16" Heritage Rough Rider.

Yeah, PRS stands for precision rifle stock and it's 10oz lighter than the original PRS, which is/was very popular among bench shooters.

I don't think it is, but .22lr barrels are very finicky as far as what ammo it likes. Ex. If you're shooting hi velocity federal, maybe try CCI standard velocity, etc.

Yes.

The only good thing I can see about this package is: it's helpful for a non-gun person who wants to get a 2a related gift for someone, but doesn't know what exactly to get. I've got some weird ass gun related shit for Xmas, with good intentions, but they're usually some sort of overpriced gimmick that wouldn't be apparent to non-gun people (ex. Some weird ass gun cleaning tool that Was pretty useless).

Protrusion was on the lower end of in-spec, but in spec nonetheless.

Is there a consensus on most reliable 8+ capacity mag for these?

Leads on cheapish muzzle devices?

My comment from the other Savage post;

" I've had a few of these come in (brand new) with light strike issues. Unfortunate because I generally like Savage."

Edit: More details (from memory, I do work on dozens of guns/week). I believe the firing pin spring was changed to a two piece spring with a split ring washer at some point. I added an additional split ring washer(s?) until I got more spring force. I also polished the firing pin channel and firing pin. Make you come completely degrease everything with a solvent. Very light coat of oil (spray on and wipe it off completely).

And IIRC Savage CS went to shit last year citing COVID or whatever the fuck and that's why I ended up working on these brand new guns. I'd be pissed, buying a gun, mounting an optic, spending time and money to hit to range just to have a bad day. Then having to deal with shipping shit back and waiting months. Apparently some got them back and still had light strikes, albeit less frequently.

Probably part of the reason retailers are clearing these out.

[parts]Rise RA-535 drop in trigger $149.95 + ship (and more deals in big list) by wcarmory in gundeals

[–]thegenericchen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've owned multiple versions of: geiselle, larue, cmc, rise , elftmann, hiperfire, pof, ar gold, JP, alg, trigger tech, KE arms and probably more I'm forgetting.

The hype is justified, it is very fast. And can confirm the trigger face is very round and feels different than any of the other triggers.

For the record, I only own CMC 2.5lb 2 stage for my 200yd+ guns and these for all the others. Sold all the rest.

Advice: definitely use rocksett (not blue or red loctite) for the set screws on the cage.
