The light looks crazy. I definitely like guns. I don't have all that much knowledge about them though. I do know, that is a beautiful rifle with an awesome scope on it. I'd love to know more about it!

It's a Tikka T3x in 308 caliber. The scope is a Sightron Siii 10-50x60. Of course I have no place to really shoot it, but...

Are we even allowed to say the word gun up here anymore. There might be a law against that too.
I love the .308. Might not have the fastest muzzle velocity in the world, but they'll go through a tree before they ricochet off of one. Great rifle in the bush.
Extremely accurate round as well.

You can buy this gun chambered in 6.5 Creedmore, but I just wanted a round I could find when the CHUDs take over. Haha.
Yeah, Penny, that's what I'm after with this. My kid has a Remington 700 in the same caliber. We were thinking it might be fun to head out to the desert for some quality time. I guess it's good to about 900 yards. I want to find out.
Ill update my grow tonight

Ok, i finally got around to looking at my plants. The hydro with no pump is going off. They've dropped 200 ppm in 2 days, and that's in the res. with no circulation. I wonder what it's like at the roots. Ph is 6.3. Check the tops in the picture. I counted more than 80 on the plant to the left. Less on the right, but still pretty good. Gonna need a machete.
The lonely plant in the closet is growing well. I'll top it again tonight. I haven't done any serious defoliation, just folded big leaves under little ones. This plant is a lot more airy than the plants in hydro. I dont think this one will ever really need too much plucking. I need to restring the SCRoG and get it in there.
The tent is doing ok. The Alcopulco Gold is stringy. They had a deficiency, nothing serious, in a couple days they will be good. The lone Lemon Skunk looks fantastic and will overcome the other 2 without trying I'm sure. I really want to see a plant do well under this light. This grow doesnt make me feel better about it. I gave my small L Skunk to a friend.
So there you have it. Nothing too crazy. I should see pistils in a little more than a week... We'll see. You mofos have a terrific weekend

I have a 12 gauge that was left to me by my grandfather that I store at my parents cause I don’t have my F.A.C. permit or a gun locker and I don’t hunt anyhow so at least he gets some use out of it.

Oh damn. Now THAT is a nice gun. That caliber is something special. I thought about that it, i have a friend that has one, but I've never shot it. I thought about a 7mm mag, and a 338 Lapua (this one will go 1600 yards) but I'm telling you when the CHUDs make there move youre gonna want the old standby 308 haha.

I dig the old stuff. My dad has a commemorative octagonal barrel lever action in 30-30 If memory serves. It's not very old, but I've seen it all my life so it strikes deep.
He used to live by the beach and didn't do anything to keep it from oxidizing. It looks like he'll, so if i get it, I'm gonna actually shoot it. Can't hurt the condition its already it. It would make a bad ass bush beater
I used to really be into guns when I was an apprentice Mold Maker. Everyone I worked with was a Master Machinist... and seriously into guns. So we would buy all the parts for guns you only see on TV at gun shows. I mean everything, an automatic UZI is highly illegal, but you could buy every single part separately legally. We built some crazy stuff... MAC 11s, silencers, reloaded subsonic bullets. Etc. I had an AK47 with a 75 round drum... I had no money then. But those days are long gone. The weapons, and accessories are hidden in walls all over Southern California. It's kind of funny I never really thought about what would happen I we got caught. Terrifies me now. Dodged a bullet I guess.

Ok. Time for another episode of Pot Talk.
The tent is doing ok. Thanks are long and leggy. They look like shit to me because I'm used to growing densely foliated round plant I can't see through. These are flimsy and thin. I dont like it.
The Lemon Skunk plant has a deficiency. It's lower on the plant, so im guessing it is an mobile element, I'm guessing Magnesium. For some interesting reading look up mobile and immobile nutrients in plants. This is an easy way to help diagnose deficiencies. By just defining if the nutrient is mobile or not this will put the candidates into to rows. One of those rows completely excuses itself as the problem. Check it out.
So these plants are growing, but not so all like those in water. And one is a clone from a water bearing parent. The closet plant is plugging along. Gonna give it more veg time. It needs a week or so for more bud sites

The 2 in hydro are doing well. Lots of bud sites, no nutrient issues, just quickly running out of room. I took the fan off of the back wall and made a stand for it. It's basically in the same spot, just the opposite side. I hooked up my dehumidifier for the first time this season. My new pump should be here by Tuesday. I hope yours are doing great. Cheers

It's incredible. A much better distance round than the 308. I just went with the 308 because it's easier to find and cheaper. Tellin' you man. When the CHUDs show up youre gonna want easy to find and cheap
I have several decent rifles, shotguns, and pistols. My favorite is a Springfield Model 1892 Krag–Jørgensen chambered in U.S. caliber .30-40 Krag. The bolt still slides like butter.

Don't get me started on my Winchester model 7 .243
It's a fucking death machine I promise. With ballastic tips. The velocity turns them into a bomb. I've used ballistic tips in .270 .308 and I've shot animals with a .260 and a .30-30 and 30-06
Nothing I mean nothing compares to what that ballistic round does from a .243
Also note that rounds ranging from .223 to .253 are known to tumble upon impact. Creating major devastation.
A wise man once said it's not the caliber it's the round. Speed and weight play a gigantic factor in velocity and loss of velocity due to sheer weight of the projectile. Which is why smaller round bullets under less grain per cartridge will produce the same velocity has a higher caliber round with more grain per load.
Velocity equals energy. And that energy must carry through the animal and not lose its strength upon upon impact of the skin. All things considered the .243 not only penetrates the skin with its velocity that it carries so well. The bullet then tumbled upon impact and disenegrates into a million pieces in which I blow holes out the side of black bears the size of grapefruits. I almost always carry through the animal with the loads I use. I don't believe I would carry through a moose or a grizzly the way I do a 300 pound black bear or 220 pound white tail. But I do believe that velocity and ferocity will carry well into the flesh and release its most damaging impact right through the vitals where it counts. Almost like planting a little grenade in there to blow up right around the vitals.
Lucifer knows what my weapon is capable. He sees the animals I slay with it. He may not be a believer but he can certainly testify that I'm not bullshitting about what it will do.

I had a Remington 700 BDL in 220 Swift. 3850 fps with a 68 gr ballistic tip. I agree it's like a grenade going off inside the animal.

This is gonna sound like pandering, but that is one of my favorite rounds. I've never even seen the gun but that one is nothing short of truly amazing. In the early days of that caliber, metallurgy wasn't what it is now, so barrels would wear out before the gun got to 1000 shots. All because that bullet is so God Damn fast. It has to be one of the quickest bullets around. You can just look at the bullet and know it's not normal. See! That reason to hang out right there!
