Saw that wondered that myself.

That is why we are 120 feet back. A normal one is 10 or 15 feet wide at most.

200 miles east of me. We have cliff collapses around us as well.

So, like, who hasn't?

I was in the Porkies a week and a half ago at Presque Isle campground. One of my favorite places. An hour and a half drive for me.

Google 1972 Indian, with the headstamp info. I think it is Okay. I reloaded my Indian brass once and it is fine. Was that HSM their M118LR imitation?

Take the head-stamp information on it and run a Google Search.you can find out a lot about individual ammo batches. I did this with some 1970’s Indian Army ammo and found that what I had was considered good quality, but that early 1980’s ammo from India had serious issues. Shot it all with no problems.

HSM has had a lot of issues over the years. Some reported on this forum. I have had no trouble with it in the past, but have quit buying it.

I will post the video of that on YouTube.

Funny thing, I have one of those on the way as well.

I assume you sent flowers and chocolates charged to Belt Fed’s card.

I had an extraction problem with my AR10T once. First time I thought it was a bad reload. Happened again with a FGMM 175 gr. I disassembled the rifle and found the rubber O ring on the back end of the extractor arm had split. Replaced it and haven’t had a problem since with any ammo. If you disassemble it, don’t lose that cylindrical spacer in the center of the O ring and spring. They are often backordered at Armalite.

Congratulations! Our 37th was in March.

The AR10T’s tend to be tighter tolerances then a standard 308AR to maximize accuracy. Tighter tolerances=things wear out faster. I looked at mine and it isn’t quite as pronounced, but it is there.

Had problems with Remington, Federal and Winchester 22’s in the past.I stick to CCI or Aquila High Velocity now. Fortunate on my Winchester and Browning 9mm. All bought long before March 25, 2021.

Well played.

Happy Fathers Day to all of you gentlemen. I have the good fortune of having my son visiting and tomorrow we are going to have some range time together.

Working on that. 21 pounds lost so far.

Welcome Mac from Wisconsin Gotta include DPete. He towers over all us Wisconsin guys.

Bringing mine to the Wisconsin meetup.

I have the standard M1A loaded and really like it. But it is big, heavy and long. I think if I was going compact, I would go with a 16” or less 308 AR. But better still get both.

I stock up on headlamps at the Home Depot seasonal displays at Christmas time. They offer about 6 different styles up to 700 lumens. Cost about $15 each. I buy 3 or 4 of the brightest ones, because a switch will break, a battery will leak, or a case will crack. When I get down to one that is working I stock up the next Holiday Season.

I agree with some of your points. If it means an all out war, I would be reluctant to see us involved, unless they attack our forces. As far as the CCP being a paper tiger. They have jumped ahead of the US in some key areas. AI for one, manueverable anti ship missles for another, They also have the advantage of a short supply line as well as the ability to quickly replace ship losses. Pentagon planners project even a victory would result in WW2 type losses in ships and planes to the US Navy and allies. It would be bloody no mstter who won.

I alluded to no such schit. They won't fuk with the land masses they won't have to. If they control the water access to those countries they make them landlocked colonies dependent on China's good will to keep their own economies afloat. Basic Realpolitik. Why invade when you don't have to.

I never said they were planning to take over those two nations. They do however want to control access into and out of the South China Sea. Which actually has broader worldwide implications then simple conquest. And no one is in a good position to prevent this. Including the US.
