Meat... served in the casinos with the time of the Rat Pack
Darn spell check.... Now don't I look like a Dumkoff!
AGAIN!!!

Sorry for the derail Mrs. Lizzy.
Have you got a chrony to test the R1?
I am curious as to it compares to my R10.

Ahh

Veal. Baby cow. Very popular in Germany in the form of sausages.

I refuse to eat a baby cow, and therefore I refuse to eat Veal.

And now back to our regularly scheduled program -

Yes, as asked before, do you have any chrony readings (as if I didn't already know

)

Congrats on your sweet like-new R1 Lizzie. Gertrude should probably consider getting a passport.

If there is one thing about this bunch, ya'll can wreck a laptop screen in just a few posts. Congrats to ya Lizzie. Glad Gertrude is back to her ol' self again.

You mean Gertrude is a gun?
Dang, I thought this whole time she was saying our buddy Ron (Gertrude) shoots like a girl...

But once Bayman got ahold of him everything was better.

Joking of course.

Fantastic news Liz!! Glad Ron was able to get your R1 back up to snuff. They are truly awesome rifles. Did he perform a post tune chrony string or close range accuracy test? Try not to break in the gun the first day,....you’ll wear us all out!!!😉

That may be a good idea! If we ever get to have another fun shoot, I may try to finally take Gertrude to one...hopefullt, she won't end up in Mexico this time!]

He did. I can't recall off the top of my head....seems like it was in the 860 range. I don't have a chrony of my own. Thankfully, Ron did much to break it in for me, and I have no doubt that is the case. She's shooting perfectly first time at the bench.

Yeah just a few. Like a hundred ten shot strings over the chronograph developing the tune and checking accuracy at 10 yards. I also dragged out my chrono for two trips to a 25 yard outdoor range where I spent a couple hours on the gun. I went through, two piston seals, three different springs and multiple guide and shim arrangements on each spring before I got it to where it is. I have three pages of targets at 25 yards and three pages of notes that were done over the course of testing three different springs and the multitude of arrangements. I ran almost 3 tins of pellets through it for testing and to run in the seal. A lot of threes here, hmmm. Anyway Because Lizzie uses them, I bought a tin of H&N FTT for final testing and seasoning the barrel after giving it good cleaning. I ran nearly the entire tin of FTT making sure the barrel was properly seasoned (accurate), and everything was stabilized. So at sea level the last string of ten shots with the FTT averaged 853, had an extreme spread of 11 and a standard deviation of 3. This work wasn't even all that had to be addressed on this gun. It had other significant issues too. So yeah its been checked post tune.

Nicely done and it seems that it was not that long ago that you first joined the forum. Lizzie is a great person and if you had to go above and beyond for anyone she is the right candidate for that.

Maybe I will drive over and drop off my D460 for a small dose of your TLC in the near future

I concur, Lizzie is a doll. She has helped me several times over the last few years with login and account stuff. I really wanted to do the right thing by her and make her happy.

I meant that is what I was thinking as well.

Silly man, if there's any nailing to be done around here it will be your other foot down so you stop running in circles...
