>>64733951
eh, honestly in my limited experience I have found very little difference other then weight (which is valid) when it comes to dealing with longer guns vs shorter. My home rifle is a 20 inch A4 clone and i have no real difficulty running around my house with that. My issued M4 is perfectly fine aswell. Now what DOES become an issue with my A4 is fitting the fucking thing into cases and vehicles which is why you saw bullpups come about.

I've been reading up on these fascinating weapons and couldn't help developing a curiosity about them.

1, Are incendiary weapons actually useful or it's just fuck you collateral damage? We no longer use highly flammable wood for anything important anymore.
2, Do they work like in my tacticool games of Counter Strike or are they different? I mean, I'm sure they are not supposed to fizzle out after 7 seconds...
3, What's the better fuel for Molotovs, alcohol, ethanol, gasoline, diesel or a mix of them? All of these are treated equal but I'm sure each has their own characteristics like flash point, so I'm wondering if there is a best overall recipe.
4, What situations can you imagine incendiary weapons being useful in a modern battlefield? Burning down entire forests I can understand, but why risk using them in CQC?

Didn't have access to that at the time and couldn't say, most of those old napalm recipes require several oddball chemicals to actually work well like napthenic and palmitic acid n shit . Honestly I'd probably just go with the real deal if I was going to mess with knockoff napalms again. I think that the performance advantage of low effort "napalms"(usually just a volatile fuel and a thickener) are so shitty outside of niche situations as to not be worth it over super basic and readily made thickened incendiary agents like the previously mentioned fuel/oil mixtures. If you need meaningfully better performance then that you should be looking at super napalm(gasoline, styrofoam, benzene), thermite/thermate, or niche chemicals(alkali metals, white phosphorous) depending on your personal interests.

Venezuela is showing the Navy's importance in protecting US shipping and disrupting enemy shipping. The Navy has been very important for the entire history of the US from the very start with the USN being basically pirate frigates. Going global with Jefferson killing Barbary pirates in Tripoli.

There's a decent argument that the navy is more important than the army, especially after the native americans were fully suppressed in the 1890s.

Hey, >>64739726 here
I want to address you in particular because I am in fact giving full disclosure about my thoughts and motivations, I am not doing some three layers of irony false flagging thing

I was in fact DEEPLY suspicious of any old asshole who goes "You don't support my ____ agenda? You must be pro-Russian!"
I figured it was the most cynical kind of blameshifting from the greediest assholes
The Y2K era antiwar figures didn't let me down by being accused of being pro-Russian, they let me down by being pro-Russian

It's no good when you've got some neocon bastard in front of you saying "Anyone who disagrees with me is a KGB asset" and you've got fucking ANSWER Coalition and Cindy Sheehan and Antiwar.com and every name you night have been familiar with during the fall of Saddam standing behind you saying "Nonsense, btw Kiev is rightful Puccian clay"

Their actions post 2022 have looked like such betrayals in my naivety because I was sympathetic to their actions in 2004, it turned out that the most ruthless and self-serving accusations against them were in fact true, that they shit a fucking brick when the US illegally and murderously invades someone, then they come up with a dictionary-long list of excuses and rationalizations when Russia illegally and murderously invades someone because their underpinning worldview is simply that Russia is a force of good and the US is a force of evil.

My press after sizing/depriming/cleaning primer pockets of over 6,000 pieces of .45 Auto brass.
My die is an undersized die from EGW. They have Lee custom make dies .003" undersized to eliminate Glock bulge on brass. With my RCBS dies I had some rounds not fit in a match chamber.

>is there any difference in the quality of the dies?
Oh sorry, didn't see this part.
Speaking strictly from experience for .45 Auto dies, the RCBS dies have a longer decaping pin. I've had a few with a Lee die that didn't push the primer out fully and needed to take out the shell holder and use a finishing nail and mallet get the primer fully out.
But the Lee dies j have are .003" undersized to get out the "Glock bulge"
YMMV.

Ball powders seem to meter best, which is why they work best for pistol cartridge reloading. I only do rifle, though, and rod type meters the worst in them. O well, if I'm not hand weighing everything then they aren't anywhere close to a pressure I would be concerned about, so the margin for error isn't thet big of a deal

Any of you guy load 350 legend? Can you use .355 9mm bullets to make plinking loads? What about .357 bullets like Flat point XTPs? There's not hardly any load data for it in my manuals, there's only one section in my Hornady Manual, for example. If it is a pain to get bullets for the cartridge, I may just have to go with something else.

I'm mostly considering this because there is a Fud range literally 7 driving minutes away. The idea will be to develop extremely accurate and consistent loads, so I will absolutely be weighing every powder charge.
>its a chill activity I can do with friends or a show in the background but if you don't want to spend a couple hours for every 50 rounds or so then ya sounds like it would be worth it to you.
I completely understand the time aspect and I am 100% OK with dedicating time to getting things perfect. In fact, I'm sure I'll enjoy it. I don't mind putting in the time to get everything setup perfectly, but I don't want to constantly fiddle with the setup the entire time, so I'll spend the extra money on the RCBS scale and powder thrower if it will give more consistent results than the Lee thrower and maybe even a bit more on the automated setup of it will be even better.
I am pretty "autistic," as they say here and I don't mind detailed setups or repetitive tasks as long as they aren't interrupted. I'd probably tard rage if the powder thrower or scale are inconsistent and would probably waste a ton of money trying to figure out which one was inaccurate. I'm asking questions to save myself frustration and I appreciate your help.
>>
>>64742449
If you're weighing by hand then you need neither, just get a good trickler (I really like the rcbs one) and a nice scale. The little scoops that come with the dies aren't just for show

I like the M07 the most. Any longer and you really shouldn’t risk your knife on wood that thick. I haven’t used the 690 yet, one of my parents had a lot of medical issues culminating in death this year. I didn’t even get out salmon fishing. I live in a very wet area, so stainless would make the obvious choice in knife. The scandi with microbevel should keep the edge durability. The new full tang M07 in 14c28n would be even better, but it’s even thicker so you lose some slicing ability. I purchased the orange/stainless one as a hunting knife option. I like my hunting knives to be able to craft extra shelter and process small wood in case I fuck up in the woods. I don’t want a youtuber making a video about Bigfoot raping me to death. I am a fanboy of 80crv2, but it’s definitely not stainless.

Knife Handle Supply wax popped up, costs about half what most its competitors run for a consoomer product. My other thought was to switch to a more-food safe chapstick and have a dual use item when it’s raining in the woods.

Kinda the opposite, really. Larger calibers suppress better by and large (though that's really only one aspect out of many) and .308 suppresses much better than, say, 5.56 but not as well as .45acp. If you're loading nuclear hot loads and shooting them theough a suppressor, you won't get as much of an effect. But the whole point is to find a subsonic load in .308 (I have some 220gr bullets for the purpose) so that it suppresses extremely well. Normal stuff like M80 ball still suppress alright too, but you'll still have the supersonic crack of course

Usually you don't actually want cities to be defensible. If you're fighting in a city, it's often not an enemy army but your own police against your own citizens.
Now, if you did want a defensible city, I think the main thing would be narrow streets with short sight lines. Durable walls are a plus, to be sure, but they're worth nothing if all your streets are wide enough to drive a tank column through, and impossible to barricade. You want lots of zigzagging alleys where the defender can set up ambushes. As little car access as you can get away with, and still have the city function.
Of course at some point the attacker is going to give up and just bomb the whole city to the ground, and that's where the UHPC might come in handy.
