    rupert liked post by Puffin On thread : Barrels ruined by cleaning
    A very good point, as this had me fooled for a long time - barrels that never seem to come clean. This. I haven't got the "gunsmith eye" that apparently can see down barrels. Aqueous...

    dannyb liked post by Puffin On thread : Trying something, Eric Cortina method of load development
    Just a note on the above, #69: threaded "modified" cases are for the OAL gauge, a measurement that M. Cortina is at pains to emphasize is not required for his method. The stock photo I posted is...

    dannyb liked post by Puffin On thread : Trying something, Eric Cortina method of load development
    Even with a micrometer die adjustment you still have to deal with the contact point of the seating stem being some way up the ogive from where the bullet will make contact with the rifling, and the...

    Tricky, and my apologies if I'm taking things off-topic somewhat, because what is acceptable as enough space for one person is a question of personal preference. If I was going through the same...

    Micky Duck liked post by Puffin On thread : Scope running out of elevation adjustment (Shooting too high)
    Scopes 101 isn't it, but perhaps non-intuitive; look into the scope, wind the knob, watch the reticle dropping, and then, er... why is the rifle now shooting high? Slightly concerning too that the...

    grandpamac liked post by Puffin On thread : The Maths of Recoil
    I'm not singling you out. I'm referring to comments like the above that are incorrect, because clearly it is the velocity of the projectile/s that are being referred to.

    I disagree. Basic understanding on recoil necessarily begins with balancing momentum. The article the OP linked to contained all that was needed for him to answer his own question without being...

    I doubt it. Turning in his grave more likely. Recoil calculations are based on conservation of momentum.
