for those things, Cliff, I use a Lyman VLD inner chamfer tool - that's supposed to be for case NECKS... I hit those nasty-crimped primer pockets with that thing for a good 3 or 4 twists - and that crimp, and all evidence of it, are long gone. Primers go in after that. This is the tool: https://www.lymanproducts.com/case-prep-multi-tool

It'll run.

There are no "clicks" in a 2-stage trigger - there's a wall of pressure that you feel when you pull the trigger. 2.5lbs first stage, 4.5lbs second stage - example. It takes 2.5lbs of pressure to start the trigger movement, then it STOPS. There's no "click." From that point, you are at BANG, with more pressure, and it would take an additional 2lbs of pressure to set the hammer off. 2.5/4.5 trigger is the example. The only distinct "clicks" you're ever see in a multi-pull weight trigger would be from a Set Trigger. A Set Trigger is not what AR 2-Stage triggers are. Pretty big difference. In my VERY Humble Opinion, you just need to go shoot your gun, and stop worrying about all the nonsense that's corroding your brainpan. You're spending alot of time worrying about things that are imaginary, and asking questions about those imaginary things - that aren't grounded in reality one bit. Again, my $0.02. Shoot your gun.

^^^ Yep.

There's some tolerance-stacking issues somewhere with the recoil system parts that you're using, or else something is blatantly out of spec. Quarters are 0.069" thick. Goes into the extension first, then you insert the spring and buffer. Love to see the exact specs and dimensions of what you're running for the recoil system. P.S. Always start an adjustable gas block WIDE OPEN, and ratchet it down a notch at a time, until it doesn't lock back on one-round-in-a-mag. Then you go back that one setting, or two, and you're done. You burn less ammo that way, and it's a much more effecient way of setting an adjustable gas block.

"Shine your light on this earth while you can..." Powerful song, listening to the message it delivers. Even better that it's coming from Disturbed. Amazing song, on so many levels. Take your time with your friends, make the most of it, and never look back. Taking the time with your friends is the most important thing - doesn't matter what you accomplish during that time together - just that you WERE together. That's always the best part. I truly cherish the time I get with you guys - it's important to me.

And then... you have Andie Case...

Here's another dude in the same vein as Rag'n'Bone Man. Equally as badass, and not what you'd expect, if you're just hearing it. Teddy Swims. Never underestimate people, my brothers, just by looks. And never underestimate someone's voice. Unreal.

Here's how big this guy has gotten. He has PInk in one of his vids.

Not the guy that you'd think would be singing this - when you only listen to it. This dude has been rocking this for years. He has a ton of vids up now. Much respect.

You tease... That wasn't the question, but that works, too...

We called the Rep late at night on a Drunk Dial last year at the Fall Shoot, and he answered, during a late-as-hell night shoot. "Tom just shot out the illum on his .260 Rem scope!" His answer was "Just send it back and I'll warranty it out - the one on his .260 Rem is a first gen, so he'll get the new one with the stainless internals and the improved zero-stop!" So, first - he knew exactly what scope I had on my gun. Second, zero hesitation in giving me the new one, with the improved internals. Then third - I JUST PUT IN A NEW BATTERY, and it was still fucked... And we called him. Send that bitch in, get the new scope, for Free-Fiddy Free. I put in one of MY OWN new batteries - and it lit right up. So I felt guilty about sending that scope in, just to get the new stuff. We called him again the next day, and told him about it - over a weekend. He still answered... Spilled the deal that I got a bad battery, thought the scope was fucked, and it's a false alarm. He said to send it in anyway, but I felt guilty, and told him no - it's still working. I'll give you guys 7 guesses where I got that battery from, after the first kill on the battery... That led to the call in the first place...

I'll just drop this right here...

I support, fully, keeping the local dealers in business - that's why I pushed GunPusher John to become an Athlon Dealer. Push your guy the same way, brother. For real. John sells Athlons left and right, and is constantly ordering now. They fly out of the display cases.

You can either wait 'til Fall, and shoot my 12.5" 6 ARC, and check it out for yourself - or you can trust me, and get the MOA one. It's a bad little scope - and it's got more magnification than the ones you're listing, it's got a no-holds-barred lifetime warranty, and it's a fuk-load cheaper than the other stuff that you're listing. Oh, and it does more. I'm just sayin'...

If I was you, in your shoes, I'd buy an Athlon. No joke. I just put this bitch on my 12.5" 6 ARC, and it is BAD!... 2~12 magnification, FULL lit reticle, I can turn the mag up in 2x and run that thing like a red-dot, and I dialed it down low enough to smack the fuk out of the 450-plate at night, with wind. This is the one that I got, in MILS of course: https://athlonoptics.com/product/helos-btr-gen2-2-12x42-dmr-scope/ Ranging built in, at the bottom. What's not to like? Now, wait a minute, before you blow me off!!! THEY OFFER THIS SAME THING IN MOA, FOR THE GUYS THAT DON'T LIKE MILS, OR JUST CAN'T FIGURE THEM OUT!!!! BECAUSE ATHLON ROCKS!!! Here's this little hooker - 2~12 mag, 42mm objective, badass reticle in a DMR scope. For a DMR rifle that you're building, right?... Check it: https://athlonoptics.com/product/helos-btr-2-12x42-ahmr2-ffp-ir-moa/

OKay, I gotta say this... THEN WHY DON'T YOU CLEAN YOUR DAMN GUNS, BROTHER?!!?...

I'm thinking 3 or 4 Dillon 650s to start, then a couple Dillon 750s to round it all out. Or, we automate a fleet of Hornady Ammo Plant press setups. Or, we do all that. Because nobody likes a quitter.

On a mil-spec trigger, it's about a mile. It's gritty, it drags, the pull weight feels worse than a double-stage Berretta M9. I want to know what a "rabbited safety slot" is...

Hate do be that dickhead, but scratch that NightForce off the list - that reticle doesn't have shiit for any windholds in it. That PA-listed Trijicon Credo does have a decent reticle for wind. That EOTech Vudu only has a decent reticle for wind if you get the Horus H-59 reticle option - and that thing isn't lit all the way through, so it'll suck at night. If it was me, brother, and I was the MOA-Whore, I'd do that Trijicon Credo. That's just my $0.02, though. That's the only one that fills the need that I have in a scope, to include shooting at night, with wind.

Right now, I just need to find a place that can give me that much powder. I need to contact Hodgdon direct... Does any vendor sell powder in 55 gal drums?...

Then, we'll quad it - and turn it onto 12...

Are you talking about dry-firing a lower receiver, without an upper receiver ON the lower receiver?! Don't do that. Put the upper on it, with a charging handle and a BCG IN the upper - and dry fire as much as you want! With a BCG in there, your hammer will NEVER touch your bolt catch. Also, DO NOT EVER file away on your hammer - you're only inviting problems into your gun. You really, really are WAY over-thinking this. You are Complicating Shiit with Complicated Shiit - that's all in your mind. Just stop it, before someone slaps you back into reality. I have absolutely zero idea of what you're talking about here.

We just sleep there. Underground, everyone has a job. Some deprime and size, some prime, some drop powder, some seat projectiles, some crimp... We only sleep in the Bunk House. But there's always work to be done elsewhere, when it's non-sleepy-time.

in 2012 alone, I fired 13,000 rounds of 5.56. Just that year, alone. I have all that brass. If I wanted to load it all up, I'd need 52lbs of powder... I have alot more 5.56 brass than that now - but that stuff from 2012 is in sealed bags, in two laundry baskets. You can't pick them up - you have to empty them to move them - they're just in those things to keep them in one place.
