the all aussie dribble thread!

lifted a few sticks today,, one popped fast under load & tried to squash me,, but i knew best to be between tree and truck it still got adrenaline flowing as flung me revving 661 outta my hands i actually checked my fingers to see if all intact

this SOB brute tried to squash me,, i had used for fun a to small 20 inch bar and when finishing i plunged in the 661 - 25 inch & it let go fast under 7 tons of load almost jumped onto the truck tray

I like the fact a 20 bar can almost sort a 50 dia log

yeah so are we but we rarely hook up telcom or other UG assets i been 21 years here & i stumped for 5 years and can only recall one telecom wire & one home water line both was lifted up by tree root growth.. that said its mostly luck as dial before dig https://www.1100.com.au/ wont give you anything other than UG asset general location so we always sniff about prior to machine start up

Gippsland eh great place,, im only guessing by trees and geography and that its not burnt your someplace hmm ?? strzelecki ranges oh by no need to answer this..

Yeah west gippsland, quite nice and infact all the forested area north of the highway is great country, from beenak through to thompson dam especially jindi, neerim, crossover and hillend areas. fortunately this year we have been spared the fires and its really been a damn good summer condition wise for us with only one extreme fire rating day. the amount of green grass around is sort of embarrassing ATM given the plight of east gippsland and into NSW. nice for us to have a year off after copping the bunyip fires ash last year and in the big one in 09. Moe , Morwell and Traralgon like all industrial centers have their fair share of "colorful" areas.

a few more sticks lifted away & off to a local pony club for jumps

Saturday Rosedale gun range was fun & 1st time i shot 900 yards with only data for 600y a bit of guess work and ballistic app that got me on paper 1st shot dialing up 25 MOA seems silly and truly silly is 6 MOA left dialed on for cross winds ..
Next week same place is 900/1000 yards

 

[trains]

Look at those flags.

6mo at 900 dosent seem so crazy, tho first flag on the left is just starting to falter, tho by the looks it was pretty constant the whole way down.

If you were aiming off , you would run out of target to use

thanks bloke, good cat in the house a blessing,, bad cats in the bush are beasts

My RPR Gen1 308 hand guard keymod had fatigued cracked & could not firm the bipod weaver rail mount. well after 4+years 5000+ rounds things do wear out. Well i fixed the problem.. I took it off and turned it upside down..

Solved 3 issues
1 saved a $pricey change over can be costly hard to import.

2 created more space below scope so i can fit my sun shade with decent clearance.

3 now got super solid weaver rail for my F class bi pod to mount.

Very easy only small file off 2 tiny mount tangs, i cant foresee issue unless its inverts the space time continuum..
