You're right shepp, thanks

Why wouldn't a .300 win mag magazine work? same overall length, just should be able to fit maybe a couple more .30-06 in because of the smaller case diameter.

changes that should be made in the prison system will never be made because the liberals are to worried about feelings.

sounds like heaven

the first step is admitting you have a problem. the next step is getting help. I am here to help you brother. I will take the temptation off your hands for you. ?

i agree. maybe not so much with the chain gangs, but there is no reason why those in jails and prisons can't do factory work, making stuff that the government needs. instead they sleep all day, got nicer gym equipment than the average person can afford, libraries, tvs all over the place, and games to play all day long. most of them find life locked up is easier than life with a job and responsibilities.

Judges and DAs are often times cutting breaks because of over populated jails. We need to find a way to make jails pay for themselves and any expansion they may need; that way no more breaks and hopefully will deter people from committing crimes, or at the very least take many more criminals off the streets and keep them off.

because you can only build so many grendels. lol.

lol. oh so long ago that was. good thing I got to know you and many others that know way more about fine tuning these things than the average builder. pretty sure they were just trying to take advantage of my lack of knowledge to try and get more money out of me. glad I decided to build my own, even if it took me several years. lol. wont be long now and it will be complete with well under $1000 in parts.

So the wife gave me the go ahead to use the tax return to finish my .260 rem. I need your guy's help in finding the most inexpensive quality parts and the cheapest place to purchase them. ? What I need still. Charging handle- I like simple and hope to spend around $20. VG6 Epsilon 65 muzzle brake- found a few places for $66-$72, anyone know of cheaper? .875 low profile gas block- hoping to spend about $30 there. My barrel, gas tube, and bcg is already taken care of. so just need some help with those last 3 pieces. When it comes to buying gun parts, I know you guys wont let me down. ?

different platform. the 375 raptor would be 20 rounds in a 308ar with more case capacity. also a .375 caliber bullet up to 350 grains. so all subsonic will be traveling around the same speed no matter the caliber, so the only thing that will really increase energy on target is the weight of the bullet, and wound channel will be increased with size of bullet. with the 375 raptor, you only need to replace the barrel. you can use .308, .338 federal, and .358 win cases to reload. it is basically like the .300 blk, but a little larger for a 308ar platform.

nice! I hope this catches on like wild fire.

I haven't posted any of the resent officer deaths here lately... it is sad and exhausting. and more and more I am going to high risk calls. lately it has been multiple times a week. It feels like the world has lost their minds. It is starting to feel more like the war zone I thought I was home from.

should have just gone with a .375 raptor. ?

yeah from my little research I did after this thread came up, it looks like it has the same ballistics because uses the same size bullets at the same velocity. I wasn't sure if with a .308 someone would be loading even heavier bullets, such as the 250gr to 300gr range, to increase energy on target... but maybe that would make it to long to cycle in an 308ar.

wonder how it will compare to a 300 blk ballistics. would be pretty cool for deer hunting I think.

I have enjoyed being apart of several conversations there. but to be honest, I feel overwhelmed with the size of the community and the amount of topics. lol.

yeah they are the best place to get a variety of meats, even have a lot that are already seasoned if feeling lazy or just want to try their flavors. can be pricey, but often times you can find some great deals. of coarse the best place to go is always the local butcher, festival often times carries stuff a local butcher probably doesn't have. two other nice things about festival foods, is they buy a lot of local stuff. we have a lot of local farmers that sell fruits and vegetables to festival. supporting local farms is always a plus. 2nd, many have little daycares where they will watch your kids for free for 2 hours! wife and I have considered dropping our kids off and just going out to dinner. haha

anyone invite AGC to the spring shoot? I would love to meet her and make the wife jealous. lol.

so who are you? ?

hoping my tax refund will give me the money needed to finish my .260 rem build, then I will be needing another sling Jacob.

Jacob needs to get his @ss to the forum more, he has to much fun playing in the woods all the time. ?

so glad I live up in the hills in the driftless region

yeah we still have tons of flooded areas from early fall that had frozen and now it is only getting worse. I think we are gonna have a very saturated spring
