An experiment that worked,

but was downright odd.

DISCLAIMER:
Yes, I used data from the Hodgdon reloading page.  Yes, worked in mine.  I can't guarantee anything for yours, these are just the results I got.

Loaded some subsonic ammo for 7.62x39 using the Hornady 255-grain Sub-X bullet first, using H4198 powder.  Since various of their other subsonic loads I'd tried in .308 ran hotter than their formula indicated, and I'd had that result in this cartridge using the Berry's 220-grain .308 bullet for .300 Blackout, I reduced the powder charge by a half a grain.  I'll note that other stuff I'd messed with, in the same rifle, the subsonics hit about 1.5" below standard loads, which- it being zeroed at 100 yards- were about two  inches low at 25 yards.  I got this

All nicely subsonic, and way higher point of impact.  Hm.

Second test, same rifle, was using some X-Treme .308 bullets of 125 grains.  I'd slugged the bore, and best I could tell this would fit pretty well, so worth a try.  These were loaded with the starting load at that bullet weight of 24.5 H4198.  And got this:

Velocities a touch above 2000fps, which is about one hundred fps slower than the load page showed for that weight with a .310 bullet.  And even higher than the other load.

And just to try it, I fired a few with some PMC factory ammo, and the scope still had them hitting at the original POI.

Folks, this is just weird, but with accuracy like that I'm going to go with it, and try some more of both.  The subsonic I'll up the charge a bit to see if can get the 1067 their page shows.  We shall see.

And hello once again

for this clearing

All right, so far so good

so one more time

and we'll find if it continues to let adults look

So, here we go

if you decide to continue

ONE MORE TIME!

'Useful idiots' may be pronounced differently in different languages,

but if the idiots get away with it, we're all screwed just as badly as the Chinese.  And various others.  Y'know, like the poor bastards in Cuba.

Well, it's definitely (FORMERLY Great)Britain now,

especially if you're non-PC and accused.  

This piece is primarily about the Cornell rape accusations, but starts of with the trial of a guy named Russell Brand in England, and goes to some of the comments from the judge.  Who, it sounds like, needs to be hanged with his own wig.

Would've been nice if the Brit 'Justice' System had had all this concern over 'Asian' men running sex slavery gangs...

And one more celebrity finds out just what they supported

when it bites them in the ass.
"But the crocodile won't eat ME, surely!" they all seem to think.

This will piss off St. Greta's followers,

her laughing at them for still following her old lead.

Some places in Europe have figured it out

and are doing something about it.
Denmark closes its border. And continues the path to dismantling “parallel Muslim societies” that were allowed to develop before the people woke up to the threat/eeality. Parallel societies of any kind are not built to co-exist - they are built to conquer.
Now we'll see if they continue when the EUnuchs scream and threaten.

And I hope their counter-terrorist work is good.

The Florida man found a perfect one for this day

 

Absolutely true. And if you're wondering what idiocy he's yelling about, look at the bottom

Boys do not need to be socialized. They do not need to be taught the “right way” to read or the “right POVs” to enjoy. They do not need lectures or preaching. They do not need “the message.” Boys need dragons to slay and princesses to save (and ones who want to be saved, natch). Boys need danger. They need risks and stakes. They need to know what death is and what it means. They need to know what failure looks like so they know how to cope with it when Real Life comes calling. Most of all, they need stories that allow them to be who and what they are without being told why they should be something else. Boys are not broken girls; they should not be treated as such. If you REALLY care about getting boys to read again, pay attention to the stories being shared in other media that they like, and emulate those. Make no mistake: this viewpoint is evil. It deserves no less than to be called out as such.

Now the idiocy:

Nice feminist thought, isn't it?  At least what 'feminism' is when practiced by females who don't give a damn about males unless they're properly subservient.

It appears the Brit government needs a swift kick in the ass, Added to

and I say, a spit in the face.

Which was followed by

More at both links.  
It seems that a bunch of Brits think their writ has power over here to control our speech; Lord Bethell needs to be informed he can shove that up his ass.  He and all his little ass-kissers.

Addition:

Ah, some of the wonderful tyrant wannabes out there

demonstrating the nastiness they accuse other people of having.

Washington passed a bill basically saying "Only women on women's sports teams in school."  Guess who says "We don't care about you people"?

And, over among the EUnuchs, you have the bastard who tried a coup to take over the Polish government:

'Abuse of freedom' among said EUnuchs means "You will not be able to say things we disapprove of!"


There's a bitch(in the very bad way) named Jennifer Welch who, among other hateful crap she's spewed, made a joke about digging up Charlie Kirk's body and killing him again.  That pissed off lots of people who started asking the podcasts advertisers "Is this the kind of thing you want to associate your name with?", and a bunch of them exited.

The bitch is really pissed about it.  And is a victim(of course, you expect anything else from such people?)

Also here, we have bitches like Massie going after Hegseth.

And it turns out the Governor of the PROM lied about his military service.  And the media knew about this and said nothing until after the election.  And now they'll wonder why more people don't trust them.

And now, I need to do other things.
