Can anyone lone me $87?

Damn, that's inexpensive. guess I need to talk to you about where to get cheap parts. lol.

I'm in love... don't tell my wife. lol

I worked Independence day. So I celebrated tonight. My neighbor and in-laws came over and we set off a lot of mortar fireworks. I got 48 big professional ones. I think my other neighbor is still checking his fences and looking to see if any horses got out. lol.

Very sad. unfortunately suicidal calls can be the most dangers calls there are because a suicidal person often tries to force officers to do it for them and also because they person does not care about their own safety, let alone anyone else's. but the issue can also be that, not in this case but in others, that officers become to laid back with suicidal calls because often times it is people not serious about it and looking for attention or just not with the guts to really do it. so there is no danger at all in the cases for us or the subject. you fall into the routine of that kind of call and when a serious one comes around it can catch you off guard.

I agree with you guys also. I grew up with it all being the same, but the meaning was never lost. yeah this bugs me too, especially when people tell veterans happy memorial day. first of all it isn't meant to be happy, it is meant to be a day of remembrance, not for the veterans but for those that died serving. We have to many stupid ass holidays that people seem to forget what the important ones mean and abuse the memory of those important days.

around here we don't waste anything, some people even eat raccoon. lol.

yeah but I was thinking about going with a 16 inch barrel. lol.

the biggest issue right now is finding barrels under 20 inches for the 260

I bet you wash could smoke it and make it taste good. lol

Thanks! I'll take a look. I'm honestly usually just a Kentucky windage type guy. lol.

that's great if you are shooting what he is shooting... how do you get the same effect with different rounds, calibers, barrel lengths. what's the math to figure all this out with what you are using?

depends on length and material a lot on that. you can get some carbon fiber ones that are very light, but even aluminum I don't think is that bad on weight, especially for the benefits. if you are running a bipod/grip, having a free floating handguard is the route I would go.

wrong thread, this should be on the grilling thread

I would think if you put the 11th one in, the worst that could happen is a failure to feed at some point. I think the "safety issue" is the company just covering their ass, along with the recall in general. can't blame them for doing that with this day and age.

Why not just count your rounds?

I have 2 boxes of 125gr Nosler Match Grade Ballistic Tip Hunting bullets. For some reason when I bought them they were ridiculous cheap. now they are selling them at $40 a box. I bought the 2 boxes for less than that even after shipping, straight from Nosler. I am going to try them and see how they shoot out of my rifle, then I might try some 110gr Hornady GMX Full Boar The Barnes VOR-TX in 110gr is on my list of ones I wouldn't mind trying for deer though.

There's nothing like food cooked by a wood fire mmmmm. love this

Oh I know a hole through the vitals will kill, but without all those nice things like energy and cavitation, how quickly and humanely will that animal die. When I shot the deer with the .243 that got away, the blood trail went away with a small layer of snow that melted mid track. I'm sure he died somewhere, the issue is he didn't end up in my freezer. I don't shoot animals to shoot animals, I shoot them for food (and sometimes pest removal for some little critters.) Though I get excited about the challenge of tracking something, for the animal's sake and for the ease of dragging them out of the woods, I prefer to drop them not far from where I shot them. One thing I will point out Magwa, the post you quoted was from early January, since them I bought my own 300 blk and I do plan on taking it deer hunting this year. Maybe it is my growing confidence in the round, or maybe I am just excited over my new rifle, but I'm gonna try it. ?

Around me I would be more worried about wolves. I don't think we have had any animal attacks from bears, cougars, or wolves yet, but the wolves don't act afraid and will actually follow and watch you. The black bears and the few cougars we have don't stick around.

I'll keep that in mind. wife has to stop popping out kids though. lol

Well he is the eye doc, it has to be his good vision. I've actually always wanted to try and eat rattlesnake.

yeah, not the type of shape that impresses my wife though. lol

you guys are making me jeaulous

I was wondering when Wash was going to show up. lol.
