So my alternator recently took a dump, I've been researching how to do the replacement and it seems like everyone takes the bumper and passenger headlight off and goes through there. Seems like it would be easier just to take the power steering pump/reservoir off and hold it out of the way with a bungie cord or am I dumb and missing something where that doesn't work.

Also for those that have done this, any tips for that bottom right bolt? Just looking at where it at seems like a fun time getting to.

Before and After shot using the Meguiar's Heavy Duty headlight restoration kit. Started with some 600 grit wet paper that wasn't in the kit, then followed the directions on the box alternating between sanding up and down to left and right between each grit level. Used lots of water and about 40 minutes of sanding per light before hitting them with the polish on the drill attachment.

Plus side of making Mom happy returning her car better than I borrowed it.

Moving down to the Chesapeake/VA beach area pretty soon for work and im trying to scout out a decent 1000 yard range within a couple hours drive. Just wondering if anyone on here uses this range or shot any matches down there.

The fuck is 7mm SAW?

Essentially a 7mm SLR would really be the closest thing that comes to mind. It was developed, and used in last year’s PRS finale by Clayton of West Texas Ordnance to drive 7mm pills faster than vanilla 7-08 without the hassles of an Ackley improved case design such as possible feed issues, fire-forming and neck turning. It uses a 308 case and is necked down while changing the shoulder angle with one pass through the sizing die.

WTO recommends the Lapua 308 “palma” brass specifically for the consistency of the small primers and the increased pressures the case can handle.

The case itself holds 55.6gr H2O to overflow and uses powders around the Varget to 4350 bu

Seems like several people here shoot at Peacemaker regularly and maybe more within a days drive.

Would you peacemaker folks be interested in squading up for a long range challenge or possibly a prs club match? Another option might also be just a meetup on patriot or independence.

Dates would be tbd until they post their 2018 event schedule. Just seeing if theres any general interest in such shenanigans to warrant further planning.

Edit: peacemaker is in Glengary WV near the north WV/VA border if you've never been.

Confession time: I haven't owned or shot a 22 in the past 10 years.

The precision 22 matches that are getting more popular have me interested in one again though. Are there any decent midrange 22lr bolt options for lefty shooters worth checking out?
