Heading to the range today to test the second batch of reloads (in Lapua brass) in my Rem7005R. Hoping I don't have any problems with primers blowing out.
But, while getting ready for the range, I decided to clean/lube the barrel real quick (just a few passes) since its been several months since I got out last. When I reinserted the bolt, then cycled the action to make sure all was good, the bolt just pulled right out. The bolt stop on the Timney 510 trigger (brand new, unfired even) was stuck in the released position. Had to take the stock off to see that it was slipping off the groove in the bolt stop lever. Will be contacting Timney once I get home from the range, but it appears to be workable as long as I only barely press the bolt stop release lever, it doesn't stick.
Sigh, wondering if someone put a hex on this rifle. [Dunno]
BC: I feel really bad about this, as I had something to do with your selection.
Don't feel bad, I'm highly convinced now it was the brass. Shot all of my test loads and not a single problem. Went up to 42.8gr IMR4064 and didn't have a single problem. No sticky bolt. No ejector mark. No high pressure signs. Just pure, clean, fun shooting. Have to decide between my 41.6gr and 42.0gr loads, they produced the tightest groups and the most consistent velocities. Need to calculate SD but I might do a load up between those in 0.1gr increments, depending if I have time over the next week or two.
You wearing yoga britches behind that sign?
Wish I were, would have been more comfortable than the too large shorts I was wearing.
Hey hos! Just stopping in to say hi before we leave tomorrow morning for a road trip. Driving to Michigan to see my family. Adios!
Have a safe drive, HB. What part are you heading to? I was in Grand Rapids during May for a friend's wedding. It was a lot more beautiful than I was expecting [LOL]

Old and busted. New hotness.
Nice ride
Congrats.
Good evening all
Stopped for the night just on the west side of the Mississippi River. This should set me up well to avoid the awful traffic on the Dan Ryan in Chicago. Chicago is a crazy place. I have a higher chance of being murdered while driving through Chicago than any other place on my route.
Made it through Chicago. It really is a shithole. I can't believe my sister still lives there...
Or any where near there. [emoji107]

HB, you can't really relax until you actually see Chicago in your rear view mirror. Best to stay out of the entire State of Illinois.

Howdy bitches... I got caught up on stuff in here, but shit for time.
Good to see ya's.
P.S. Someone stole your barrel from my garage. Old guy in a white chevy pickup. I tried to catch him, but he was too quick for me.
Neighbors said that guy came to my house a total of three times. No one got a plate number though. One neighbor is a mailman and said he found some of our mail in the driveway. Anyway, I talked to a third neighbor and he saw the same guy as well, but thought he was just going door to door pedaling shit.
My neighbor asked me that. I've never done such a thing. After the very first day, my neighbors just grabbed our mail for us.
I'm sure I've had my mailman neighbor suggest that to me before. I'll be sure to do that next time.
