The rebuild

[newb]

As the story left off, the chamber in the previous build was too tight. Sent the barrel and bolt back and received a refund.

The new barrel and bolt is JP Supermatch, 22" with JP adjustable gas block. Put 5 rds in the mag and manually cycled all through with no probs.

Bore sighted but still have to propel some lead for real.... tune the gas block and dial in the glass.

Grass in the fields is too tall for my normal plinking. Might walk over to the bull's field or visit a friend for some open area. Bull isn't in his field anymore. When a bull wants to get a few pastures over to where the females are .... several off the shelf thin walled pipe gates crumple like an aluminum can.

Glad things are progressing. Be careful going through that Bull's pasture, though. Reminds me of the following story...

Three bulls are standing around overlooking a field full of cows when they overhear the farmer tell one of the cowhands to get the trailer ready to pick up a new bull.

The old bull snorts and says, "I'm a tellin' ya what, there ain't but fifty cows here that are mine and if'n that new bull thinks he's a gettin' any of my cows, well, he's got another think comin'."

The second bull says, "There ain't but 30 cows here that are mine and that new bull sure ain't get any of my cows."

The young bull says, "There ain't but 10 cows here that even know me, but I sure ain't lettin' that new bull have any of 'em."

A few hours later a tractor trailer arrives and the bulls listen as the air brakes let out a whoosh, then the trailer doors open and and the gate lowers what has to be the biggest, meanest, orneriest looking brahma bull they've ever seen. Great big hump on his back, huge horns, froth dripping from his jowls as he stamps and paws at the ground.

The old bull says, "Ya know, I've been thinkin, it's mighty selfish of me to keep all them cows for myself, I might just part with a few of 'em to be neighborly."

The second bull says, "Ya know, I'm thinkin the same thing, no need for me to keep all thirty of them cows to myself, gets to be a mite tiresome."

The young bull lets out a huge snort and starts stamping and pawin' at the ground, raisin' a huge ruckus.

The old bull says, "Woo boy, what's a matter with you? Don't you know that new bull will kill you?"

The young bull says, "I'm just makin' sure that he knows that I'm a bull..."

You're going to love that JP barrel. Same one I've got. Almost every load I try is MOA or better.
