Guided Bullets
IndyArms replied to XD45's topic in General Discussion - Any topic is welcome here!!!
Thats ALL YOU CAN SAY??? You just CHATTED with a guy who worked on it... but you CANT say more... cause YOU were sworn to secrecy, from a guy who was already most likely sworn to secrecy... Somehow that doesnt seem right... If HE can BLAB to you... cause his security clearance is meaningless to him... then why cant you share the wealth with the rest of us... INQUIRING MINDS WANNA KNOW! I mean... its not like you gotta name names... and NO ONE would know who spilled the beans... ALTHOUGH.... If it was THAT important/SECRET... they would ALREADY have picked you up for mentioning t -
Gun Confiscation Begins in New York!

I hate to inform you of your mistake... HOWEVER... There is probably THAT MUCH HARDWARE in MY COUNTY ALONE... ( no maybe not F/A stuff...) but I think you might be pleasantly surprised just how many people snubbed their noses at the safe act... It is a VERY small percentage of gun owners even smaller than the percentage who told the Gov. to shove it, in the OTHER STATE that did this... LOL -

I know for a FACT that a 50 BMG API round will punch through 2.5 inch 6 layer "ballistic glass" like a hot knife through butter... and the 8 inch tree behind that... SO I am sure they will retain some momentum... LOL -

Gotta be more like a MINI-Guided-missile than a true bullet. I cant imagine how the physics of a chunk of matter changing direction over the course of its trajectory can maintain enough energy to do tyhe job without an explosive "warhead" as well. -
While that specific load may shoot well in your rifle, reloading will allow you to fine tune a load that may shoot even better. Adjusting bullet seat depth ( COL) , as well as the powder, the projectile, and primer, as well as being able to grade your brass for more consistent weight, and therefore internal dimensional consistency, you will find that the sky is the limit for reloading your own cartridges, and making your rifle shoot better than you can hold it.

From what I have always understood... the hole creates a small vortex pocket in the front of the projectile, the rest of the airflow, then streamlines around that tiny sphere of turbulence, in essence creating a perfect aerodynamically shaped "tip" to the projectile. It is similar in effect to why your truck gets BETTER gas mileage with the tailgate UP and not down... you create a vortex in the bed, the airflow over the cab, streamlines over that vortex, creating a nice, almost boat-tail shape to the back of your truck... Same with the hollowed tip of the projectile.

Reloading is the way to go for this one. you will need to find the proper powder/bullet combination that works BEST... testing all brands and all types of bullets, and then the possible combinations with different powders, and powder weights of each powder brands, might take months of till you find the perfect load... and by then, has the barrel been slightly fouled that you get bad data??? ROFL! keep it CLEAN!!!! I posted load data in the reloading section for a 308 load, shot from my Savage F/TR that got me 5 shots in one ragged hole... I think it was .38" diameter... you will have to loo

As I mentioned... it was out of adjustment... once they tweaked it proper... it seems to be running just fine, with all the power it should have... they had a second at the shop, brand new, they had to adjust the same as mine, as well... guess they are coming from the manufacturer buggered up... -

Well... after the bitch dried out... It mowed the last 3 acres of trees and hills without a hiccup, and did a VERY nice job!!! It did everything it was supposed to, and fast.. The problem is... before... I was mowing foot tall grass that was wet, on spongy wet ground... Almost got it STUCK in the mud at one point... It just DOESNT like to get wet!!! WTF Like I said... I think the drive belts get wet, and slip under load.... and thats the issue... when its dry it performs as I expect it to... I guess I just gotta keep it DRY... I will have to nickname it " Gremlin " LOL! -

so far I HATE the new mower... I have been without one so long my grass is VERY TALL, and holds a lot of moisture. so when I mow, the belts or SOMETHING gets wet under the mower and it has ZERO POWER to go up hills... I actually had to LEAVE IT in the lower yard, as I could NOT get it to go up the hill back to the driveway!!! I am NOT pleased about this... as when I bought it, I told them I MOW A LOT OF HILLS!!!! Well, what freakin good is it, if I cant get it up a hill if I happened to run over wet grass??? Once it dries out, it runs fine and will be just fine on a hill... but it should -
I posted in the other thread about lawn mowers the issue with my Husqvarna rider... 2348LS... well, It has a blown motor... crack in the lower block, nd needs a new connecting rod, and probably a new piston as well... The shop wanted about 1200 to fix... as a lower block unit is 700 alone... not counting the other parts and labor to rebuild it... With all that issue and cost... we just got a new one... Went with a Cub Cadet Z-Force SZ48 We will see how this one holds up... Now to get the cracked block in the Husq welded... and rebuild that... for a yard tractor.

This is my 100 dollar kingsford smoker. BIG and works perfect. a great STARTER SMOKER... and inexpensive to boot!!!! It works perfectly, If I do MY PART... Thats a 13 pound brisket. took almost 14 hours of constant monitoring, and temperature control... came out ABSOLUTELY TENDER AND PERFECT!!! you can spend more on something with a better NAME, or more whistles and bells... but this one works for me... I also have an OLD sunbeam gas grill when I want to GRILL Food... the smoker is for SMOKING...
