It was vertical on my iPad and then it posted sideways. I dunno.
But year. 2600 frombthr 16”. It was a little warm and the ammo might have been in the sun a bit before shooting. I was getting 3400 FPS on the BH 50 TSX. The 70gr GMX BH load was stupid hot. 2950ish from the 16”. And you could feel it. One of the few rounds I’ve ever noticed a real difference in recoil.
AQ planned for years and sent their A team to carry out the attacks, and on Flight 93 they were thwarted by a pick-up team made up of United Frequent Fliers. Many people look at 9/11 and wonder how we can stop an enemy like that. I look at FL93 and wonder, "How can we lose?". -- FromMyColdDeadHand
