What gun stuff did you do today?

[RackinRay]

Snagged a Ruger Charger. Removed the bipod, cleaned it up, and started shopping for the accessories to kit her out.

The fun begins.

Nice. Is that the 8 inch?? Been looking at those. Never had a 10-22, somehow.
Does it have the rail on the back?? Saw a video where the guy had the rifle foregrip on it and the can fit inside it. Should be a fun build.

It is a 10" barrel. It has the Picatinny Rail Adapter on the rear.

Besides doing the standard Ruger 10-22 mods, I will keep build simple. Just ordered an adapter I can use to mount a KAK brace I already had on it. A HoloSun 403B will be installed on it.

Have you noticed any loss of 0 with the TD?

Went out to Element this morning and checked the zero on the 10/22 Takedown after breaking it down, cleaning the barrel and cleaning the upper as well as the trigger assembly.
No loss of zero with a cheap $29 BSA red dot I’ve had for years.

Shot it at 25, 50, and 100 yards with no loss of zero. Fooled around with it on the 200 yard steel plates. Was able to make hits, but the holdover is like 4’. Took a few tries to hit the plate thst far, but did it with the cheap red dot.

Also zeroed a build I did years ago, Larue 18” barrel. Once zeroed, took it out to 300 yard steel plates. Both 55 grain and 75 grain bullets were easy to connect with.

put these new links on my Co-Ax the other day...still not sure if I like them...everything feels soft...but it is way easier to get these fat hands and fingers in there now.

I did this on the second case running it through the S/B die before sizing them.

hard to believe I didn't get enough lube on 1 piece of brass with my spray bottle

One of my favorite builds!

As fascinating as the 8.6 blk is, I've put it out of my mind, for now. Just ordered parts to build a 10" 300 blk upper! Yay! Now I can buy another caliber ammo! But at least I'll be able to use a 762 can, as soon as I can find one in stock...
Next week is gonna be like Christmas with all the 4th of July sale packages coming in!!

That's very good to know. Most takedown loose zero.

I've been honestly slacking on shooting the last nine months or so, focusing on exercise instead. This past week I realized my Staccato/STI isn't going to be up and running by my next big match, so I dusted off the Glock 35 and have been dry firing with it for the last week.

I'm hoping that posting will give me some accountability and get me back into the habits I had before I burned myself out on shooting.

Wow, those are tiny targets for 50 yards. But I'm willing to bet you could knock a crow at 100 easy.

 

[Jester896]

Thanks! @Rebel_Rider1969 I struggled on the pool balls today. I am only using X16 and they are using 30-40s. The pool ball targets were a struggle and scoring was a little wacked.

the numbers on the pool balls are 1/4". The flies are bigger maybe 1/2" but you have to hit one of the black areas or the eyes. Looking again, I struggled on the flies too.

Yeah, precision shooting at this level is tough. One extra cup of coffee could cause trouble. Looks like a dead murder of crows to me. At least ya get to visit with some like minded individuals.
Go pop some crows for me.

Have rifle...will travel

Finished up those 7mm-08s

 

[Rebel_Rider1969]

Picked this up. ATN day, night scope. Going to put it on the CMR30 to play around with. Might move it to the .22 bolt gun later.

 

[Rebel_Rider1969]

Zeroed @25 took a pot shot at a crow @100. Missed. Spoiled from the thermal it's much smaller and lighter. Still need to zero the ir light. Looking forward to my can to knock a few db off this.

Cleaned up some rifles that I shot yesterday. Cleaned up some 10/22 mags.
