Probably not as many since you don't work in the "candy store" anymore.So many to choose from.

I have done pretty well laying off the gun purchases. Now if I could cut back on buying reloading components, I would be in good shape.Probably not as many since you don't work in the "candy store" anymore.
I use my hand to measure for heat - if I cant comfortably wrap my hand around the barrel it is too hot and I let it cool.Maybe I shouldn't be worried about the barrel heat? Does anybody measure for it?
Best thing I have read in this thread!I am just going to load for fun then go out and shoot'em up. I have way to many guns that need shooting, to worry about fine details of each range visit.
Yep, I have many many 1000s of bullets that need to get buried in a dirt bank. I'm a pie plate moa shooter anyways, so not much reason to spend oodles of time trying to gain an inch here or an inch there.Best thing I have read in this thread!
Hey load and shoot for accuracy but don't obsess over it.
I've used the Nitrogen freeze bags to freeze the water inside piping and they work pretty quickly depending on the size of the piping and temperature of the water.I think Rick Jamison rigged up a Nitrogen wrap device, much like the plumbers use to freeze a section of pipe for a repair downstream. Looks like a blood-pressure cuff, supplied by a small tank.
The heat probably caused the wood to start sweating cosmoline. Many older east bloc milsurps were stored in massive quantities of the stuff, and some of that was absorbed by the wood.I remember putting a number of rounds through a Mosin one time and the wood stock finish was literally turning to liquid.
Yes.Honestly, I believe I am overcomplicating this stuff.
You spend an awful lot of time coming up with crazy ideas. You should ditch all of that and shoot more. A lot more. Your MOA example is something to be embarrassed about especially on a gun forum. If you really don't care about an inch here and an inch there when it comes to accuracy what is the point of any of this? Shooting accurately is a hell of a lot more useful, safe and efficient (and respected) than another random idea. I'm being serious here.

I have two choices: To overcomplicate things or do what makes me happy. I will aim for doing more of the latter.Honestly, I believe I am overcomplicating this stuff. I don't think this precision shooting is for me. I haven't even been out with the first batch of loads and the fun factor is already going south.

Let the fun commence!
