big nasty Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Just like the 2 Grand's I have tried I got it to 90 pretty fast and BRAKE'S I kept working it got it past 90 got it to 2 1/2 inches BRAKE'S got pissed off. I kept hitting it 5 minute's later it was down to 1 inch. I guess I should get pissed more often was happy after but I think I pushed it a little hard kind hurtin wrist and shoulder's. I will heal up hit another workout Sunday I have noticed that some of the stock I get from the scrap yard varies.

big nasty Posted March 6, 2008 Author Share Posted March 6, 2008 Nice bending. I've heard rumors that some HRS is real tough. I not saying this stuff is like CRS Matt but this latest batch seem's to be harder than the last I bought. I plan to try a 6'' next time and see what happen's that 5 1/2 was rough. I am sitting around iceing my wrist right now. Quote '' KETTLEBELL'S MAKE A MAN OUT OF YOU '' '' JUST A LITTLE FISH IN A BIG POND '' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingsrule92 Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Is it A36 right? If so that stuff really ramps up on the crush due to the broad apex it bends with but the kink isn't bad at all. a 6" piece cal'd at 370 which is lower than a G5 but the crush is almost as hard as a G8.

vikingsrule92 Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Sorry Jason, didn't mean to be condescending, but I've been at this a LOT longer than you and if you can get a Grand to 90 your HRS must be tough because I did a 5.5" LONG before I could even get a Big bastard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
