    poor/ crappy UPS handling

    I’ve had Midway shipments of bullets that consists of the very dense bullet box clacking around in a big ol’ flat rate box with one sheet of bubble wrap. One time the product busted clear out and I got an empty shipping box. They did replace it without hassle so that was nice. You’d think...

    muzzle brakes and recoil reduction question

    They work well in what would be considered an overbore cartridge. Usually with anything “magnum” on the end of it. In my experience the juice isn’t worth the squeeze on standard cartridges. I have a braked 7-08 and the concussion bothers a young or inexperienced shooter more than the recoil...

    Backup beam scale

    I have an old RCBS that’s made by Ohaus and back it up with another RCBS that’s a little newer and cheaper. I’ve never used an electronic one but I would if that’s what I had.

    maple stocked rifles

    Maple is more stable than walnut. I personally don’t like the look of it for a stock but it’s only personal preference. It’s better wood.

    308 Win, 165 Nosler Partition & Varget

    .308 is a fantastic cartridge that punches well above its weight - class. Good shooting.

    Bullet jump?

    Good info here. The throat also begins to erode starting with fired round #1. Some go quicker than others, depending on how much powder it’s burning in relationship to the bore diameter.

    Biden's mandate.

    Hey I voted for him too. Twice. But he cost himself, and us, the election because he just couldn’t shut up. I really hope he learns to keep quiet or he will cost us 2024 as well. I’m starting to wonder if he doesn’t work for the DNC (there’s a good conspiracy theory[emoji3]).

    Biden's mandate.

    It’s interesting that “The Sun” would be sensationalizing this now considering R1 happened in March. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.preven ... d-variant/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Gulf of Mexico fishing

    Figured it was time to update this one. Got back to San Diego yesterday, leaving to go back to Alaska today. “Epic” is a word that gets overused today, but my vocabulary isn’t advanced enough to use another word. 20 anglers, around 105 bluefin tuna, many over 100#, at least 10 over 200#...

    Biden's mandate.

    Oh I’m wrong a lot of times no surprise there. I agree with you 100% on this one. No one should be forced to take it. That’s plain wrong. If folks want to quit their jobs over it that’s their prerogative. I suspect many of them will be financially obliged to come back, under duress, and...

    Biden's mandate.

    I have a friend, one I mentioned earlier who likes the information coming out of Israel also to support not getting the shot. Cases there are rising without question however rate of serious illness (before roll out) is significantly less, like 90%. So the young people with serious illness...

    Biden's mandate.

    I believe they have been doing mRNA trials for at least 20 years. Cancer and various viruses. Side effects have been limited to the first couple of weeks, much like any other vaccine. There are exceptions obviously like anything else. It doesn’t stay in your system and doesn’t alter anyone’s...

    Biden's mandate.

    A lot of people will give up their job before taking the shot, until it’s time to give up their job. Not anyone here specifically, but a lot. People are so overextended on credit these days that they can’t make it a month without pay. Doesn’t matter much what tax bracket their in either...

    Biden's mandate.

    When it gets boiled down, what is the reason not to be vaccinated? Personal choice or not doing it because the wrong man sits in the White House (Trump says to take it by the way)? Is it all vaccines or just this one? Even Fox came out this week with a reprint from a NY Post reporter...

    Win. 71 348 WCF

    Never know. You might get it for $450. That would be a good buy. Auctions are weird sometimes

    Win. 71 348 WCF

    Probably a solid shooter, the holes for the scope mount have decreased it’s value significantly. The rest of it looks decent from the pics. I’d expect to see it in the $750-$850 range if it were advertised for sale.

    Gen 5 Glock

    Agree with you all the way. I wanted so badly to get friendly with a G40 when it came out but I just couldn’t do it. Doesn’t fit. I put a set of XS 3 dot night sights on this G48. A good improvement. I don’t have any issue with the trigger as is, so I’ll leave everything else stock...
