  1. If you know someone military, they can accompany/escort you to Range 9 at Fort Riley. There's more involved, but knowing someone with a Mil ID Card would be the first step.
  2. Ironically, I haven't even started loading for this caliber yet. I've got ALOT of 5.56 brass to convert, but haven't even shopped for projectiles. Not in this current climate. I'll probably wait until the end of summer to even start on the brass, honestly. Really looking forward to loading this up. <thumbsup>
  3. Right on, brother! I love that MOE rifle stock. <thumbsup>
  4. For heavy rifle that will get humped around alot, the TT 3-point is the sheit - wide strap material that distributes the load well (better that skinny straps), the 3-point keeps it close to your body when you're moving, bending forward, etc. It's the only way to go for a heavy rifle that you'll be carrying around for some distance. I had my TT 3-point left over from my M4A1, in Afghani-land. That thing weight just over 10lbs, unloaded, and got run up and down mountains, etc. Damn glad I had it. When I built the .308 AR, I already had it, and it was a short decision-making process on it. <thumbsup>
  5. Just a note on the Tubb Final Finish projectiles, and kits - those projectiles are actually abrasive. They're numbered differently, and vary in the level of abrasiveness - like sandpaper. Shoot them in order, and it smoothes out any manufacuring imperfections in a barrel's rifling, from the rifling process. Obviously, match grade barrels that have been final finish lapped by the barrel maker won't benefit from it as much as a "good" barrel that's mass produced, or semi-mass produced. I've used it on the "accurate" barrels that I've purchased, that are "almost" match barrels. Ironically, they're all Wilson Arms stainless barrels, 1:8 twist, with .223 Wylde chambers - one 16" midlength, one 18" rifle gas, and one 20" rifle gas.
  6. I can't find a pic of this beast anywhere... It's gonna be damn nice, that's for sure.
  7. Probably not - we damn near put Drew in the Poor House! <laughs>
  8. Fixed that for ya. No offense, but that's the kind of stuff the different branches notice, and adhere to. <thumbsup>

    Jon, those are the legs that they wrap around your head, bro... <thumbsup> Exactly... :)) Plenty - one cheek in each hand, instead of two hands for each cheek! :hethan:
  10. ^^^ He's just sayin'... <laughs> <lmao>
  11. Nope, they sure don't. However, you can calibrate any bullet weight/distance you want with their online software, and smack that info sheet on the side of your buttstock (laminated, of course). Example: Here's the Nikon program - it's called "Spot-On" http://spoton.nikonsportoptics.com/spoton/
  12. For the mag catch on these, make sure you guys are screwing the button down until it's flush with the end of the screw. It makes a difference in operation, if it's not on that far. <thumbsup>
  13. Which one was this, brother?
  14. jrt, you can go through with the SBR, with a LEO exemption. <thumbsup>
  15. Oh, DAMN! That's SWEET, brother!!!
  16. Yes, he did. Bolt gun and AR. I shot the sheit out of both of them, too. I'm feelin' it today, that's for damn sure... :))

    I love 1911s...
  18. I can pull my upper apart next week, brother. 16" with carbine gas. I'll measure the gas port diameter.
  19. Yep. I wouldn't hesitate to beat someone to death with my Geissele 13" MKII rail. No hesitation. That thing is SOLID.
  20. I have to do it, because I'm jealous, and want a lever gun pretty damn bad. But... :wwop: ...of that brake!
  21. M-223, P-223, several P-22s with the BDC-150 reticle - these things rock. I'll eventually replace the current scopes on two of my 308 rifles with M-308 scopes. Nikon has this stuff wired. <thumbsup>
  22. That would look damn great, brother! Snatched a pic of the combo on a 5.56 gun (stolen from the interwebz), for a quick look...
  23. What I like about the Hi-Speed DMR is it's adjustability range. The Hi-Speed Match in a very lightweight pull. The Hi-Speed DMR is a middle-weight pull. The Hi-Speed Service is made to complete in Service Rifle competition, and has a heavier, military-minimum pull weight. The DMR can be adjusted into the upper ranges of the Match pull weights, and the lower ranges of the Service pull weights. It's the overall best trigger to buy when considering an adjustable Geissele Hi-Speed series trigger. If you end up adjusting it into the lighter ranges, you might want to pick up a Match in the future, and if you end up adjusting it heavier, you may want the Service in the future. The DMR can almost do it all, except at the extremes of light and heavy. <thumbsup>
  24. Hey, Brother Ron, I don't think I stressed enough how damn much fun it was today. Just wanted to reiterate that again... <dontknow> <laughs> <lmao> One day, you need to get here, and the whole thing will go down just like this, for you, man. <thumbsup> Damn, I am going to take you up on that one - before Mike does! :))
  25. GREAT DAY!!! Hole SHEIT, though - did Mike bring a sheitload of rifles!!! That says alot, coming from me - DAMN, he brought alot of rifles. That 300 WSM whooped my ass - I kinda feel it now, but I think it'll really set in tomorrow. Larry, damn good to finally meet you, brother. Josh, you have a great future in front of you. I'm glad you came home right now, with enough advance notice, because we put all this together to meet you, and that's no joke. You're worth it. <thumbsup> Jon and Mike, as always, it some funny damn times being around you guys. "FIST ME, BRO!!!" <laughs> <lmao> Dirk, more good times with you, man. You're like a brother to me. Literally. EDIT - Board Brothers, out there... I Beta-Dumped that Slide Fire, Vera, in 20 seconds. With a jam. 99 rounds, rocked that MFer... :2nd:
