Reloading generalMy 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.
Vitavuorhi data aside, anyone have loads for N570 in 338 Lap Mag for a 265gr Barnes TSX?
>>64760133>he doesn't workout while he reloadsNGMI
>>64760090I for one really hate the RCBS hand primer, I don't know if i've got a defective product, but with small primers the little bastard jams up often, the entry level LEE single stage press auto prime blew it out of the water.for some reason the fucking thing makes the primers seat wrong and the priming ram gets hung up on the plastic and case holder
>>64738164any ideas for a sturdy yet non permanent compact foundation for a progressive press?
>>64739154>my Garandnoob here, if I understand your question, you have an original Garand that was used for lower power 3006 loads made in the 1940s. Did you check the specs for the proper/safe loading for that year Garand? If so you should be good to go. Someone asked the same question herehttps://forum.nosler.com/threads/safe-30-06-loads-for-the-m1-garand.16143/
Lockheed Martin's latest promotional video about their LRASM antiship missile engaging a Chinese Type 055 Cruiser launched from a F-35

>>64759637did they intentionally make it look like an ace combat mission briefing
>>64760128It's fucking incredible how many people don't understand that external munitions stores showing up on radar is still a fuckload smaller than a 4th gen with external stores showing up on radar.The F-35's EW systems don't suddenly turn off either, and they're pretty fucking nasty for something that's not a dedicated EW platform.>>64760616At this point I'd be kind of surprised if the inspiration wasn't flowing both ways.

>>64759187>$10,584for a little bit more you could probably get a transferable anm2 30 cal or something, those are still cheaper than many smgs
>>64759214Theres literally nothibg wrong with the M249, you retards either don't load it right which turns it into a bolt action, or you don't fucking clean it which takes 5 minutes and should be done every couple hundred rounds. Especially after popping blanks.The Ares and Lima have nowhere near the same ability to sustain the same volume of fire, let alone a similar lifetime volume of fire. They're civilian "just as good" belt feds.

>>64760494>>64760546isn't their oil shitty tier, heavy oil something like that
>>64760555Yes but a lot of their problems are because they can't keep the infrastructure maintained. They kicked out oil corps and nationalized the industry but couldn't afford to keep it all going
>>64760380The fact they could afford a state funeral at all is nothing short of a miracle. They are so broke that they can't even afford to keep the lights on.
>>64760666But could they have afforded to ignore the deaths politically? But yah, I really don't see how Cuba still has it's current government in power given all of the failures they have had just feeding their populace and keeping the lights on for years now.

>>64760814Believe it or not? He's probably looking out for you. But if you want to push it, if meps didn't pick up on it, it's not his place to say. Find another recruiter if you truly want this. You may be beyond the point of being able to mask it though. Drills will notice. Did you say the words "yes I have an autism diagnosis" or any derivative of this? This complicates things greatly if you did.
>>64760814Have you been actually diagnosed by some kind of medical professional? How intensely autistic are you that recruiters are just cold diagnosing you? Be honest.
>>64760675No good answer. Marines do vague contracts that could stick you into a bunch of things. I've been told aviation is surprisingly decent in the marines though. Doubt it's better than say, the 160th though. At least you know what airframe you'll work on in the Army. Do not join the Marines unless it's during a war. Don't do it.
>>64760868>Find another recruiter if you truly want thisI dont think I need another recruiter as I am already enlisted into the DEPHe also isnt standing in my way and he didnt say anything to me directly and he generally seems pretty niceIts just allegedly he said those things to another applicant and the other applicants told me about itI am not upset with him over saying or thinking anything it just makes me self conscious and worried about being "found out" and removed from basicI have not said anything about it to him or anyone and I shrugged it off and laughed and acted like I wasnt bothered when the other applicant told me this>>64760898I was diagnosed when I was in elementary school but my parents fought the school to keep me from being put in therapy and on Ritalin or Adderall or etcI dont really know "how autistic" I am as its hard to judge from my own shoesI can recognize that habits I have and things I like align with people I see online that would be made fun of for being "autistic" or "weird"Comment too long.

You have a moderately sized military force and you have to deal with several hundred of these things. Here’s what you gotta remember about them:>Nearly immortal, body can be damaged but the only thing that can kill them is fire>sever a limb and it will keep coming after you >burning them isn’t advised because the gasses inside will reanimate any corpses around them, including animals >They do feel pain, from injury and their rotting bodies>eating brains relieves said pain>they’re very smart, able to fake calls for backup and set up ambushes>speed depends on the state of decay, fresher corpses run like a human>nuking them would kill them, but it would spread the trioxin gas further and make a bigger outbreak in the endWell, /k/? You gotta get creative with this one.
>>64760444The threat of the Romero zombies was always that everyone was already "infected" (I say this in air quotes because it was never clear if the zombies were really sci-fi zombies from a disease or radiation or if there was something supernatural going on) and would reanimate unless their brains get blown out, a concept taken wholesale on the tin by Walking Dead.Even if the military wipes out every single zombie that raises initially, society breaks down from the paranoia of the realization that eventually, they'll all turn. This is also why paranoia and betrayal is a central theme to all the zombie movies Romero worked on.
>>64760476They do, which doesn't work, then they cut him apart, and that still doesn't work.
The man whose head was bitten off by the Tarman in the basement never reappeared as a zombie.

Turns out I was wrong. idk where I read that Teddy liked peep sights, I know the one letter is about him buying a .22 with peep sights https://www.theodorerooseveltcenter.org/digital-library/o293878/it must have been for the Smithsonian African tripI'll post the other version of the letter in the next post but, it turns out he always used what are basically express sights with a u notch in the bottom with a ramped front bead. https://www.loc.gov/resource/mss38299.mss38299-363_0001_0271/?sp=106&r=0.447,0.157,0.595,0.233,0in his autobiography he specifically mentions drawing a bead on things, including an injun. he also straight up couldn't shoot for shit. He even admits he was a piss poor long range shot due to his shit eyes. eyes so she he couldn't get peeps to work. Peeps must still be the most accurate because every shooting competition that allows peeps but doesn't allow a scope has everyone using peeps over open sights. I wonder if he would use a red dot today or if his eyes were so shit he's seethe about the starburst
Here's the letter with the drawing along with a video of the rifle that the letter was abouthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSt9GmrVdSE

burger Anons, you know how annoying as FUCK it is to ship handguns, due to how you have to drop it off at a UPS distribution center since USPS won't take em because of some weird ancient reg?Well, not anymore!https://www.justice.gov/olc/media/1423701/dl>I hope this isn't viewed as political, I just wanted to share the news.
I’ve got a stupid question.The ban on shipping firearms to your front door is due to guns requiring a background check at an FFL, correct? More specifically the idea that it makes it impossible to determine that the person that’s actually receiving it is not a prohibited person.The CMP can ship long guns to you.Capitol Armory can ship suppressors to you.Manufacture/gunsmiths can ship to you.So logically, shouldn’t you be able to order a gun and have it delivered to you as long as you fill out a digital 4473?
So, looking at it cynically. Is this just a move so the current administration can say they're expanding gun rights without actually doing anything significant?
>>64760941gun laws never make sense, anon. don't try and find logic.e.g. the entire SBR portion of the NFA is nonsense because pistols were supposed to be NFA items, originally. We've been so used to it we fail to see the stupidity sometimes
>>64760947Maybe, probably. It's like the lowest hanging fruit in existence but I'm not going to complain about something good.
>>64760986no, the lowest hanging fruit would be to eliminate the import engraving requirement for surplus.so many boomers would CUM at the idea of having surplus shit without nasty import marks (me too somewhat desu)
How hard would it be for a handgonner to hit a man sized target at 60m?
>>64752347I mean what you're describing has been my experience whenever I shoot with ~85% of the population regardless of politicsI'm consistently baffled at how physically incapable the average person is

You're tasked with building a kit to help Iranian resistance against the Ayatollah regime, the kits you build will be airdropped into Iranian territory in large dufflebags and then picked up by chosen operatives. You have $3k per kit to try to arm an light resistance guerrilla fighter, you can only source items from the US civilian market. At minimum you should provide a rifle, a pistol, body armor, essential accessories and ammunition for both, as well as any survival or tactical implement you see necessary.What kind of stuff do you pick?

Both ukraine and russian men should just have a couple goons tard wrangle jeets as cannon fodder and then their own native slavic Volk use drones on the jeets so no Slav has to die meanwhile pajeets are depopulated.they could even bring back armored trains too to stomp on the pajeets.
>>64755999They agree to go into another mans home, kill his family and take his land for the promise of a payday.Nigger behaviour.
>>64755988Yeah its a fanfic, globalism would prevail either way. Just look at sweden, fucking racemixers. I just want things to be the way they were in the 90s/00s. Back then, I would be a social democrat. Now, I think that ideology (somewhat sensible taxes, somewhat sensible welfare, strong unions, bit of nationalism) is dead.Still, WW2, hell, WW1 were all tragic mistakes. I am not antiwar, things like falklands, ton of african safaris, sandboxes 1,2,3... were all fun, but its because they were exported violence. Never get high on your own stuff I guess...
>>64748403There are always traitors and super evil, dumb or just misaligned actors. Sure. But I know of no war, that was won by traitors alone. Sure, there were some treasons with huge effects, but history is never written by individuals. Its always about the population supporting silently or loudly some bigger or smaller endeavors. Napoleon would be noone without the will of the french people to die for him. Hitler would be just some random racist episode if third of germs actually fought against him by other means than just by writing angry columns into their leftist papers and talking loudly about it after the war. Russia wouldnt be trapped in ukraine if most of russians didnt support their Tsar. There is no jewish-rotschild-iluminati conspiracy forcing people to use inflationary dollar. Just ton of individual decisions to rather use this american banknote, based upon the quite reasonable thought that US isnt going to collapse until they can spend it and that a lot of people who sell goods also accept dollar. /pol/ likes to point fingers, but they have no other policy proposals other than kill jews, minorities, enslave women, ???, profit. Well, countries like Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, Sudan and rest of sahel, various areas under control of Islamic state spinoffs etc. etc. all implement all or parts of these proposals. They also probably have low taxes and liberal gun and drug laws. But do I want to live there? nah. And lemme tell you. I do not actually think this is caused inherently by race or genetics. I have read about things that happened in Bosna, Serbia, Kosovo, Chechnya, Ukraine etc. Radicalism, fundamentalism and other extremisms simply arise from a population of poor young men with no good future to look forward to. I am not some nigger lover, I still think they should stay where they are, because europe has only some, very limited, integration capacity, and I think EU fucked up big time by not shooting the boats.
>>64741490You don't even need the trains. Just put some railway tracks out in the open and pajeets would come out of cover to shit on them
>>64748191Letting it collapse is dumb.People fail in family forming because the environment isn’t suitable to form a family in.This environment is not just the literal surrounding environment, but also the economic environment (including the time management economy), as well as the psychological environment (of both the female and the male, both who have differing requirements.)All Japan will be left with is increasingly empty urban ghost spaces, which are usually fertile ground for crime spreading, though since this is japan i suppose they won’t be too rowdy.Empty is still empty however.Try forming a family in a Detroit like environment.There will be no bounce back or stabilization like it’s some kind of ecosystem’s bird population, because the death of industrialized societies is just as exo-naturalistic as their birth.
