  1. Neil, found some info: http://www.milsurps.com/showthread.php?t=20403
  2. We need pics of that... <lmao> Try a 5.56 rifle with some Barnes 70gr TSX, brother. DRT. <thumbsup>
  3. Should be real easy to do. Determine the length to cut the case first. Run it through the sizer die, make final length corrections after that. Very similar process to making 300BLK from 5.56 NATO. You're only going from 7.62x63 to 7.62x51.
  4. They work pretty damn well. I picked one up at the beginning of the year, and like it alot. <thumbsup>
  5. Bull$hit.
  6. Not on a training jump, running the DZ. Jumpers might be jumping weapons, but not with ammo. I never went into the South Rainier training areas without a loaded firearm, though - too many meth brewers out there. Got scads of stories about running into those bastards, mid-brew.
  7. It's just like eating an elephant. How do you eat a whole elephant? One bite at a time. <thumbsup>
  8. That's beautiful brass - seriously. <thumbsup>
  9. I was kinda lame with that one, I understand... :banana: Ed is making strides, so I went soft... <lmao> Ed, Minute-Of-Man (or Minute-Of-Deer) is perfectly acceptable. However, once you add stress to that, most people can't shoot that. Off bags and bipods, sleds, rests, locked into shooting jackets and all kinds of $hit, some people can do amazing things with a rifle. Once you take that stuff away from them, some of them can't (literally) hit the side of a barn at 100 yards or more. Focus on the basics, and become a good shooter. As you get better and better, start adding things to the mix - not talking about equipment, necessarily. Get good at shooting a group at 100. Next time after that range session, go run 100 yards away from the firing line and the 100 back, drop your a$s in the bench and shoot 10 as rapidly as you can... go downrange and measure THAT group... You'll see a difference, and one that might shock you. ***NOTE - if on a public range, notify the Range Master of your intent, before you haul a$s 100 yards away from a working bench, so he doesn't think you're a freak, and call 911 on your seemingly psycho display...*** There are many things you can do to add stress to your shooting sessions that will make you a better shooter. Ask for examples, and I can give you things that will keep you busy for the next couple months. <thumbsup>
  10. Anti-Walk, Anti-Rotating pins - just like putting a clip-type masterlink on a motorcycle chain. Brilliant. <thumbsup>
  11. Sounds like that thing has an attitude - is it male or fe... - wait, this is a trick question. Needs more Tannerite... <thumbsup>
  12. Yep, this belongs in the reloading section...
  13. Bastards won't let me vote again, and it's been more than 24 hours. BS...
  14. I live my life like that, all the time. The truth hurts some people. Some people need to hear those things, and that just sucks for them. Gets me in trouble here sometimes, but life is hard and you need to be strong to survive. <dontknow>
  15. I used to fuk with new guys in my unit, on night drops. I'd set up the drop zones and take new guys with me. WA State, Ft Lewis. You get into the southern training areas, onto those DZs, and you were in western WA winderness. Coyotes everywhere. Anyway, send the new guys out there to set up the near and far beacons - and hit the siren on the bullhorn. Fuckin coyotes in the woodline would go apeshit, yipping and yapping. New guys would come HAULING A$S back - without having put that beacon in place. Sorry, fucker, get your a$s moving back out there where I fucking told you to go - plane comes in around 30 minutes from now, so I don't have time for your chickenshit. MOVE! They get about 2/3rds of the way out there - again - hit that siren on the bullhorn... <lmao>
  16. Hell yeah!!! <thumbsup>
  17. Strange. That goes against the norm of other people shooting this ammo.
  18. That's bull$hit - you don't have ANY spare time, man... <lmao>
  19. Ship it, brother - I'll blow his $hit to the moon... :banana:
  20. I'm in. I still have 4lbs of Tannerite. <thumbsup>
  21. I have a hardened flip-phone, old-skool style. Get made fun of for it, too. Modern technology is why I won't get rid of it. You guys with your smartphones enjoy. My dumbphone is perfect for what I need it for - making phone calls.
  22. Nah, that's just another night in the barracks, on a payday weekend... :hethan:
  23. 402 now. <thumbsup> This dude is WAY too serious - that car will never make it...
  24. You're complicating $hit with complicated $hit. Take the bipod off. Shoot with the rifle resting on a sandbag. You need to learn the shooting basics FIRST, - and get good at that - before you start adding things to the mix. Forget bipods, rear monopods, scope levels, whiz-bang $hit. Leave it all at home. Steady position, Sight alignment, sight picture, breathing, trigger squeeze. Focus on those... ^^^ Take your optic off, use irons.
  25. Looks like Yamaha dumped the undertail exhaust. I hope that thing is still the crossplane crankshaft...
