I have that range. Come visit.

6.5mm projectiles are amazing. Bad to the bone. From the .308 case, that would be .260 Remington. My .260 is a Dragon Slayer... With this 6 ARC thing coming around, and my history on the 6.5 Grendel - I had to do a 6 ARC gun. Or two. That little 6mm projectile is even a LEEETLE BIT MORE better than the 6.5mm Projo. Barely. But it's there. I have a .243 Win rem bolt gun that I got into this 6mm/308 Win thing with, and I haven't done much with it, but it's a Rem 783 Varmint, and it's nice. I need to work up a load for it, and get it going, but I've barely shot the poor little thing. I suck, on that part. .243 Win AR, though, is missing from my arsenal. I sadly declare that. Once I work up this bolt gun, the AR will follow. Here's the boltie...

This is the BIG ONE, right here...

Shouldn't be anybody's choice. Ever. If I'm gonna get in a gun fight, I want friends around. That's in the rules of gunfighting. If I have no other choice to be alone, on said occurrance - where you never get to pick that fight, but it is bestowed upon you - better be trained. The Rules For a Gunfight: 1. Bring a gun. Preferably, bring at least two guns. Bring all of your friends who have guns. 2. Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice. Ammo is cheap – life is expensive. 3. Only hits count. The only thing worse than a miss is a slow miss. 4. If your shooting stance is good, you’re probably not moving fast enough or using cover correctly. 5. Move away from your attacker. Distance is your friend. (Lateral and diagonal movement are preferred.) 6. If you can choose what to bring to a gunfight, bring a long gun and a friend with a long gun. 7. In ten years nobody will remember the details of caliber, stance, or tactics. They will only remember who lived. 8. If you are not shooting, you should be communicating, reloading, and running. 9. Accuracy is relative: most combat shooting standards will be more dependent on “pucker factor” than the inherent accuracy of the gun. Use a gun that works EVERY TIME. “All skill is in vain when an Angel blows the powder from the flintlock of your musket.” 10. Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty. 11. Always cheat, always win. The only unfair fight is the one you lose. 12. Have a plan. 13. Have a back-up plan, because the first one won’t work. 14. Use cover or concealment as much as possible. 15. Flank your adversary when possible. Protect yours. 16. Don’t drop your guard. 17. Always tactical load and threat scan 360 degrees. 18. Watch their hands. Hands kill. (In God we trust. Everyone else, keep your hands where I can see them.) 19. Decide to be aggressive ENOUGH, quickly ENOUGH. 20. The faster you finish the fight, the less shot you will get. 21. Be polite. Be professional. But, have a plan to kill everyone you meet. 22. Be courteous to everyone, friendly to no one. 23. Your number one option for personal security is a lifelong commitment to avoidance, deterrence, and de-escalation. 24. Do not attend a gun fight with a handgun, the caliber of which does not start with anything smaller than “4”. 25. You can’t miss fast enough to win.

Now we're talking about carb tuning - or modifying EFI systems. I got that covered, brother, and can "mix the mix."

Spending years on a competent team will give you the personal, individual competency skills, to know when it's right to get into something like that, when it's wrong to get into something like that - and when there's no other choice but to GET involved with something like that. Being lucky enough to get out of a combat zone teaches you things. Both good and bad, and you learn, immediately, what was good and what was bad. As soon as the lead hits the fan, it tests your own SOPs. Sometimes they work - sometimes, they need to be changed. No matter what, it gifts you invaluable knowledge.

At any age, you never did it. That's my point. Not to dig on you in any way - but don't speculate about what it takes in a fire fight... if you've never traded bullets with an adversary. Don't overstep that boundary, because there's only one single way to gain that knowledge. There is no other way around that.

This one is for @Microgunner - thinking about you the whole way through this one, brother Ernie, when I first laid eyes on it. @JBMatt brought this little monster out to a shoot, suppressed, and it's a cool little "almost-Glock" .22LR semi, and bad to the bone. Once we shot that out there, I had Gun Pusher John take a pic of both sides of the slide, to get all the details, and the instruction was simple... "John, GET me one, somehow, find a distributor..." Well, John called last week and told me it was in - out of the blue, of course, because this shoot-session where I demanded it was MONTHS ago.... This is a bad little .22LR semi pistol, that's got the Glock grip angle, and runs really nice, from what I've shot of Matt's gun. I'll run this little bastard in the morning, at least 100 rounds through it. It's picked up today, in-hand now, already taken apart and appropriately lubed, mag loaded, and ready to go.

Badass cartridge. .308 Win in a 6mm projectile. I can vouch for this.

From a military background, I tend to disagree with that statement - greatly. If you lived through one, you found out some things. Things that worked, and things that didn't work - and you're still here. What you learned under fire, changes immediately, both good and bad. You directly shiit-can the things that didn't work. Done, gone. You Embrace the things that did work, and figure out how to make those things better - if it's even possible - and you immediately incorporate that into your training - future training. AARs, Modifying training plans, changing SOPs. Direct Ground Combat immediately influences how you train -once you've been in it. Being in a Hostile Fire Area / Combat Zone sucks. But if you haven't ever been in one, don't speculate about what it's all about.

Right?! My first DPMS LR-308 stripped lower receiver was $325, and that was 2010! Whole bottom end for $299 is just NUTS!...

You can build another real DPMS for cheap right now - lots of parts on sale at CDNN.

Plus tons of other parts. Hit up CDNN and check it out.

I listen to this one when I want something tech to get fired up. Strange, I know, but it works. I use this one to test audio installs. Get this on a clean, loud system, and it'll thump the fuk out of you... When I need metal, these fukkers deliver for me, this song specifically:

^^^ That's my own personal Theme Song, right there. I strive for that.

This is easy. Air - check. Fuel - check. Got 'em both. Spark... But, is it "properly timed ignition?"... You can have spark, but that fukker needs to spark at the right time, and sheared flywheel keys or fucked up distributor timing will leave you in bed with ^^^ that guy, trying to figure it all out - while your girl is leaving you because you can't get her car running... Or bike running... Don't worry, honey - I got you.

Got a small writeup about this today from GAT Daily, and the link to the whole 60-page lawsuit. A few items of note: While we haven't read the entirety of the sixty plus pages, we did immediately catch a few things right out of the gates. We expect a lot of analysis coming from this, as the lawyers among us pick it apart, but here is what immediately caught our attention. The language used in addressing the ATF's due process violations, as well as a direct challenge to the ATF's lack of authority to make arbitrary rulings, makes it very clear that Rare Breed is still in this fight. They do not pull any punches here. Another quickly noticed item is the change of venue from FL to ND. This is pure speculation on our part, but we can see many business reasons for this decision. First and foremost, RBT is fighting on enough fronts already. Florida's law banning the sale of bump stocks reads in part 790.222 'the term "bump-fire stock” means a conversion kit, a tool, an accessory, or a device used to alter the rate of fire of a firearm to mimic automatic weapon fire or which is used to increase the rate of fire to a faster rate than is possible for a person to fire such semiautomatic firearm unassisted by a kit, a tool, an accessory, or a device.' While Rare Breed could fight the legality of the FRT under this law all day long, I'm sure, it's not a fight they need right now. A second VERY logical business reason to move to North Dakota is two fold: first, ND has much more friendly firearms laws, and is a Second Amendment Sanctuary State; and second, business taxes in ND are far less cumbersome than in Florida. As more documents are filed and become publicly available for us to download, we will keep posting them and updating you via email. Stay tuned! Start Reading

That is BADASS, Bubba!!! My next solution / step in taming this monster is a buffer from Slash. He makes a buffer that's 8.5oz. The XH Carbine.

Short .308s and red dots work real well, brother - doesn't matter what kinda dot. The combo is pretty badass. 150gr Range Trash common .308 loads leave me with 100 yards - POA = POI. 200 yards is Chest POA = center mass POI. 300 yards is Head POA - Center mass POI. 400 yards is head-high over the head POA - center mass POI. Good for me. I like it. From a 13.5" gun. The 12.5" gun is almost identical for holds/hits. Not enough difference to worry about. I'd run the small-frame guns first, just for mobility / car mobility, and light(er) movement weight. Things would settle. Run out of those specialty cartridges? No big deal. Move to the short .308s. EDIT - Hit ratios listed above for Points Of Aim and Points Of Impact are ON a full size ISPC plate. Torso plates, 18" x 26" or 18" x 32". Same/same.

Brother, they don't know what cows are - besides "they fart, and destroy ozone layers." These fuktards think meat comes from the grocery store, and don't think beyond the store. Scary, but real.

That would be the epic location for such an occurance.

I'd start with my 12.5" 6 ARC with the 2~12 scope on it. Does short range, longer range, 850 is easy. Small enough to carry around in a tennis racket case. I make my own ammo, so I'm not concerned with ammo. If times get silly, and ammo is short, I'll move to the 12.5" Grendel. Ammo gets dumb after that? 12.5" .308AR with a red dot.

The last time he was here on the site was Sept 25th, 2015...

That's gonna be real close. My numbers are 0.093"~0.096".

I seriously wanna try this little Nasty one out...
