To add to this... one more reason I'm glad I migrated to the 308AR platform.
While all this scare buying and price jacking was going on, I was able to go to my local Walmart and find ZQI 7.62x51 at will for 9.98/20. Cheaper to shoot that then 62gr.!!!
CTD no surprise were the first ones in on the action.
Fucks those douchebiscuits!
Then again, seems like just about everyone was taking their turn this time around...
Tom,
I've been finding .223 in Benson and Sierra Vista sans the price gouging. You know you've been looking for a reason to come down and say Hi.
Pig is in the ground and the beer is on ice buddy! We'll get the guns out and the quads warmed up and hit the wash! ;)
Right on... I think you'll like the mid length setup. I'm running a mid-length 16" from Rainier w/ a Syrac adjustable gas block and standard DPMS buffer. It cycles like a sewing machine and spits the brass out right at 3 o'clock.
Color me jealous! I almost ordered that guy to kick off an SBR build in .300BLK but laid off of it, said ambi-schmambi and got a standard Aero lower because.
A ) I found it on sale through SAA
B ) I want to use their COP for the upper
C ) I have hangups about matched receiver sets.
But damn that thing is sexy! Still have not sent the Form 1 so now you have me wanting to backtrack and follow in yours and Toms footsteps!!.
This leaves one problem though... what to do with an extra small frame lower..... >:D
Damn buddy,...Tough break... (too soon?)
Ok, joking aside, that really blows man... sounds like you've been having a hard go of it with your rifle.. Think it could be related to the chamber issue you mentioned?
Bought 500rds of that Independance .223 ammo that's. "on sale" at Midway. It was right at .36 per round shipped...
But still cheaper for brass than anything I can find locally...
Damn that's nice!! Of course who would ever shoulder such a thing!!! That would be like using a mason jar as a beer mug!!..
Nonsense I say. Complete nonsense!
Just put oil in it and drive it till she pukes.
At 240k on the clock, that time is drawing near.... even for a Honda.
My Accord bit it ar 238k and my old Camry beater bit it at 260.
Nice.. Ive heard nothing but great things about these triggers.
Shipment got delayed in Texas by weather, but its on its way now.
Hoping to get it in early week. Feeling excited.
Thats pretty badass!!
Job 1 is to rip off whatever DOC,DPF,EGR,UREA emissions bullpoopy it gets saddled with and tune her up!!
Coal rollin rock crawler!!! Fuckya!!
