The earth was flat for centuries until the mistake was discovered that it was round
No, the earth has always been round. I don't think there was ever a time it was "flat for centuries". Of course, a lot of people thought it was flat, but I don't think PO Ackley was one of them.
Are you back padling now and claim that an AI is not an AI unless it is a 30-30AI loaded to 35K. While in a solid gun the 30 Aardvark (30-30 AI with out the rim) is loaded well over 60k.
What exactly is "padling", and is that a question or a statement? I sure hope your (self proclaimed) "interior ballistic skills" are a lot better than your writing skills, as I am struggling to understand what half your replies even mean.
How dense can yo get. Besides you are not the only one on this forum that want to know about AI's
Well, let them start their own thread, and I'm sure you will offer all your wisdom. Otherwise, let's limit the discussion here to what's been asked.
The tests were done with the 30-30 and the 30-30AI at 50k in a Tompson Center barrel configuration. The reason for the 50K was that the Tompson Center lock up could be stressed above that pressure.
Ok, good for them. What exactly were the results?
You would like to know why the cases without a bolt did not blow out the botom. You get out your slide rule and figure it out, for anybody as well versed on iterior ballistics should have no trouble with that at all
Are 'iterior ballistics" anything like "interior ballistics"? Fred, I see you have gotten excited and are typing faster than you can think. Good for you, but you keep getting way off topic. Plus, you have even lowered yourself to infantile insults.
Once again, I see I need to remind you of what this discussion is about. The results of other AI cartidges have no bearing here, as the only cartridge I am interested in is the
.30-30 AI. I will say this again. the only cartridge I am interested in is the
.30-30 AI. I don't care about the .30 Aardvark, the .300 Weatherby, or whatever other cartridge you come up with next. Furthermore, this is going to be built on a Handi rifle, so we also don't need to hear about 9 locking lugs or Thompson Centers being pushed to 50k pressure levels.
I see you like trying to distract from the topic, but please try and focus. You are wasting a lot of bandwidth with your nonsense, and it isn't helping this thread one bit. I have asked very simple and straightforward questions, but yet this has turned in to a two page pi**ing match.
So, I will ask this again. If you don't have anything to add to this thread in the way of
actual experience with the .30-30 AI, please do not reply. If you want to discuss other cartridges, please start another thread as this one is all ready off topic enough.
Thank you!
