I liked some of their music
My wife and I took a load of household items down to the new home today. I set up a new bed and did a few other things. We hit the storm on the way back to West Lafayette around Lebanon. It was a good lightning show and toad strangler rain storm! At times traffic was down to 20 mph and the wipers on my GMC did not work for the first half of the storm then came to life! Just something to work on tomorrow amongst other things I need to do.
If anyone is interested I will be selling a really good 10 year old Craftsman 42" cut lawn tractor with no issues and a yard roller. Oil, Oil & gas filters changed every spring. Pictures and engine info tomorrow. Other items include a oak dresser refinished by BA ( I have 2 that he refinished that were part of his very first gun deal). Hutch, refinished dresser with mirror, bookcase, lift chair, gas dryer, king size bed with frame, adjustable computer desk. All will go in the classies the next day if no interest.

Brother we wish you both well in this move.
Could someone get the record player? The needle is skipping again.
CM & CKW Thank you!
Yes, taller.
All the best on your move and new home Wizard.
#2 daughter moved into her new home today. She's been stuck in an apartment for a couple of years since her divorce. Buying a house in this market is not for the faint of heart.

Power finally just came on here
What's a record player?
More frog drowning rain.
Range results.
Ran 50 rounds of Lapua Center-X, RWS Rifle Match, SK Rifle Match, Eley Club and Eley Target today to give myself a current baseline with my new Caldwell BR rest and Protektor bags. Definite improvement in stability, however my shooting continues to suffer somewhat with the 457 and I can't figure out why. Might be time to take a break from it?
Anyways, the RWS Rifle Match is the recent $4.99/50rds deal that many of us bought. It's average today was only beaten by Lapua Center-X. Pretty happy with it and will continue to test. Not my best groups with the Center-X. SK and Eley Club did okay, Eley Target was a huge disappointment (I won't even post pictures of how bad, it was that bad). I've got sporadic cases of vertical stringing and flyers from multiple ammos and it's really frustrating me.
Onto using the Harrell tuner on the Tippmann rifle with CCI SV ammo. As anticipated, the rifle showed improvement using the tuner.
Using my own version of the Hopewell method, I started off by doing a rough grouping of 3 rounds fired in multiples of 10, for a total of 4 groups consisting of 12 rounds in each group. Example: #0 setting, fire 3 rounds, adjust to #10 setting, fire 3 rounds, adjust to #20 setting, fire 3 rounds, adjust to #30 setting, fire 3 rounds. After that, I figured out 0-30 had the least amount of vertical stringing, so then proceeded to break that group down further by shooting 5 rounds at 0/10/20/30. The #10 setting showed promised. So I broke that down by shooting 5 shots at settings 5-9 and then 11-15. Anything that showed promise, I shot another 5-round group to verify.
I ended up sticking with setting #9. It averaged .731" for 7 groups of 5-rounds. My normal average for the rifle was previously .818" with this ammo and my previous range trip was a .797" with this setup. It's not a huge improvement, but it's noticeable and I will test further to see if that average can drop more. I noticed the POI was fairly consistent with that setting too along with the locking collars on the tuner not loosening up as fast (typically after 5 rounds, the collars were loose again, not an issue with the 457 due to being a bolt gun).

Is your employer hiring?
That is a lot of data to process at 11:30....
Interesting results with the tuner. Aside from Average size did it improve the extreme spread?
Pretty impressive shooting with that Tippmann!! Well ALL around actually.
