This “cycle” might be different from the past ones, a virus-unrest-preelection trifecta...but those that have been through something like this before: How long did ammo stocks go back to “normal”?
This will be a lengthy one so if you just clicked for the final build photos, sorry to disappoint, check back in here next week.
First up, how’s everybody? I hit a few life speed bumps even before the ‘rona and I haven’t been able to shoot at all. This build was meant to be a side project...
Carriage bolt head sheared off after 1 shot (not a direct hit). Are there any classes/types of bolts that are better suited for hanging steel targets?

A couple of years ago, I was reading an unrelated topic online when I came across Project Appleseed. Fast forward to last month when I took my oath as an American, my first few acts as a citizen were to register to vote, apply for a passport... and buy a Ruger 10/22.
I’m now registered for an...
