The Campfire / Re: What's Everyone Doing?
« Last post by KDubs on Today at 01:58:00 PM »
I'm at work, nursing home.
 State inspectors are here all week. Awesome!!
 I'm planning on playing with ginger tomorrow.
 Gonna run some..535 balls thru her just to see if they tighten up my groups.
 With .530 I can cover the my 25yd group with my thumb.
So not expecting much improvement.
 I'll try her at 50 yds too.

The Campfire / What's Everyone Doing?

That question says it all!  It sure is quiet around here.  I admit that I haven't been as prolific as I could be, but it looks like membership interest has dwindled to almost being disinterested!   :Doh!

Just saying.....

Gun Building and Repair / Re: Needed: CVA Patch Box Lid, 4 screw
« Last post by Winter Hawk on May 12, 2024, 03:35:12 PM »
I solved the problem, gave the stock to someone else who needed to replace a broken one with 4 hole patchbox.   ;D

I have another stock which was duplicated from the Hodgepodge rifle stock by Pecatonica River Long Rifle Supply.  They did NOT cut in the patchbox inlet and the did NOT cut the butt to match the curves of the butt plate.  So now I am (carefully) trying to fit the BP to it.  Ticklish business since it has the top extension going forward along the comb.  I purely hope I don't mess that up!

TMA Postal Shoots / Re: May targets
« Last post by No Powder on May 11, 2024, 03:43:07 PM »
I shot the bullseye target the first week of May, and sent a picture to Mark. Don't know if he got it or not. I shot a bad target. No group like I hoped for. But I didn't shoot the fun target yet. Home project and rain to hinder me. I'll soon have to check for cob webs before shooting anything.

Went out to the range today instead of shooting at home.
 Did some final load development. Looks like ginger likes 60 gr of Goex 3f with a .530 ball and a .017 PT patch with my new lube of choice, 9 parts buffalo tallow/1 part beeswax.  Might scrap the beeswax and go straight tallow.
 Got my may targets all shot up.
Anyone else get to there's yet ?
