I forgot to update friday but my wife got the job! first they told her she would need a 2nd interview but then they called friday and hired her and offered her 3 dollars more an hour than what we even expected, she doesnt start for a couple weeks but this is a blessing!

Thanks guys for your good luck wishes!
 
congrats to the wife!

as to sriracha -- it also goes good in alfredo sauce. when mixed with garlic, soy sauce, and PB, it makes a decent satay to baste on grilling meat.
 
Sounds like it will be a sweet setup, A/C, but 20" is too short for all the powder in an '06. I think you might want to step up to 200+gr bullets. You're gonna lose velocity anyway, might as well trade some wasted powder space for bullet mass. Better ballistic coeff on thed longer slug anyway.

Re: sriracha in gravy... sounds like a great idea, but then I've been known to put it in salad.

Think I'm going to chronograph a few loads and see how it does. It has always pushed bullets quite a bit faster than any load data said it should and below max charge without pressure signs. If I don't like the results I'll probably just order a new custom barrel for it.

Glad to hear your wifey got the gig! Good for you guys!
 
Congrats on the cat find, my cat picks the weirdest places to disappear too, mine was "missing" for almost a week once, found her behind our washing machine lol.

Story from my little town...

9-1-1 Dispatcher was on the desk one afternoon. Call comes in from an obviously distraught lady.

"I need the Fire Department. I need the Fire Department."

Dispatcher: "What's the problem, Ma'am?"

Lady: "My cat is stuck up in a tree! I need the Fire Department!"

Dispatcher: "Is the cat on fire?"

Silence....
 
Good ending to the season of TWD. Kinda sucks that it done til Feb, but I spose I'll find something else to do for an hour a week.
 
New riflescope should be here tomorrow!! Ordered a Zeiss Conquest 3-9x40 to put on my 30-06, so I can quit swapping my Burris between it and my ar15. Got a decent deal on it from a Black Friday sale. Now I just need to bed the 30-06 into its new stock, order a new trigger, new scope mount, set the headspace, and get it all put together. Kinda a facelift for the old dog. My brother and I bought it when I was 13 or 14 and I'm 31 now, so it was starting to get rough looking. I had the barrel re-crowned last year and he had to shorten it 1.5", so I'll be shooting a 20.5" barreled 30-06. I'll be needing to make sure I wear earlplugs for sure.

My 308 is sporting a 16.5" barrel. It's a loud beast and I'm trying to decide what to replace it with.

I've shot some 16" 223's and they are pretty loud, I would imagine a 308 would be insane. Is that on an ar10?
 
I have a 16 inch .308 I will NEVER sell it I love my PRECIOUS.............................
 
Just wear ear plugs!!! I wish I had worn them when I was younger cuz I'm only 31 now and have some very noticeable hearing loss in my left ear and probably some in my right too. I won't ever shoot again without something protecting my ears.

Nice man! I need to get into guns. My life has been knives for long enough that I should diversify.

Glad she got the job, and the extra cash is always nice! Now you can get your M-18 from Turlanga before too long!
