(Concluded) Hellinois rifle hunt legal caliber recommendations

new-cartridge-list-allowed-for-illinois-deer-season-v0-xfmosjhkexua1.jpg

The dumb fucks at DNR deemed that these calibers should be legal to rifle hunt deer in the shitty state of Hellinois. None of the commonly used ones because they think those rounds will hit someone or something ten miles away. Deer hunting with rifle was made legal last year and then the dumb AWB was passed right after. I used a Marlin 512 Slugster for the last two seasons but plan on using a rifle this year.

Which calibers from that list would you consider good for a whitetail deer hunt and could you recommend some nice quality rifles that are chambered in your preferred caliber?

Calling all poors, what is the most poorish shooting sports thing you've ever done?

Let me be the first to say that I am a poor. And poors do shit that makes them even poorer by not following the well established rule of "buy once, cry once."
So what project/modification/rabbit hole have you personally chased that embodies the poors ethos?

Some of my examples:

I poored (pun intended) close to $1200 on a Ruger 10/22 by slapping various Kidd upgrades on it when in fact it would have been easier and more time efficient to just shell out $$ for a Kidd Supergrade.

I made a mirage shield for my "ELR Savage rifle" out of venetian blind slats and Velcro. The turd-a-riffic concoction messed with my barrel harmonics and after the barrel heated up, the glue from the Velcro melted onto my barrel discoloring and branding it with a tenacious residue akin to the Scarlet Letter, but instead of an "A," it is a "P," a tell-tale mark of a poor.

I contemplated purchasing a Pelican case to protect my "precious," a Garmin Xero C1 and wanted to buy a Leofoto arca rail attachment to mount it to my rifle for getting reloading data, but saw the folly of this overly complex, bulky, and heavy set up when the tripod deployment is so simple and flexible in application. An overly protective case or covering is another tell-tale sign of a poor. Yes, I'm looking at you poors with OtterBox 30 megaton protection case for your phones.

What example of poor behavior are you guilty of? Bonus points for photos.

Cheers,
The Poors Commander-in-Chief

Minnesota Supreme Court “Created” Duty to Retreat From Threat of Deadly Force

On appeal, the Minnesota State Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld lower courts’ rulings that a man, threatened by an attacker holding a knife and declaring he wants to “slice his throat,” had a “duty to retreat if reasonably possible.” The courts state that Earley Romero Blevins, the potential victim, failed to retreat. Therefore, he has now become the criminal, facing 39 months in jail.

“Judicially Created”​

The high court admitted that this “duty to retreat” is “a judicially created element of self-defense.” It says that it therefore applies to anyone who claims he or she was acting in self-defense by pulling out a weapon instead of running from the scene.

Said the majority in the 4-2 ruling:

Santa is heavily back in play again.

With Santa involved again on a much larger scale, they won't have to openly cheat as hard. LOL

The dems will win in Nov, bank it & prepare for it. This country is fucked, but the quicker it burns to the ground the quicker we rebuild w/o all the dead weight of the FSA and their empowers.

Any help is much appreciated.

Hey guys this isn't a good news post. :(

We all know how much @MikeRTacOps contributes to the long-range LEO and snipers hide community.
The help and support he gives to random people on here is too much to list.

Well, a friend of his just passed away from cancer at only 47, Gonzalo Galvez.

He was an LA County Sheriff, and member of the SEB (Special Enforcement Bureau).
If you aren't familiar, they handle the most dangerous warrants and situations in all of LA county.
Later on he went over to the ESD, which serve as the tactical paramedics for the SEB.

Here is a QR code with a link to help out his family.
Anything is much appreciated. Thanks guys.

Prepare for Trump to be sentenced to prison on September 18

Anything to keep Trump out of office.

It is not just that Judge Merchan had previously denied the recusal motion. The judge has signaled that, come hell or high water, he intends to sentence Trump on Sept. 18.

If you’re keeping score, that would be two days after early voting in the 2024 election begins in Pennsylvania.

How often do you clean ? Suppressed ?

FNG says I am waiting too long at 250+ rounds “
Biggest thing is keeping up with it and not letting the fouling/barrel get away from you.

I’m in the camp of not letting it go past a 100ish rounds in between cleanings.

If I shot a match today and put 70 rounds on it… I’m cleaning it that night before putting another 70 more rounds on it the next day.

You let it away and you can be chasing your tail.

Some calibers are easier on barrels than others… 6CM is not easy on the sticks.”
