Has to be. I think just I bought 40. Other guy in this thread bought 50?

I think they came in cases of 12

I don’t think we had 100 cases..but I’m prob wrong. Was 4/5 years ago.

The mark up on them was very low we pretty much just passed them through because they were sold “as is”. Didn’t want people bitching that it’s out of spec and costs X

actually I think there is a thread on it..I’ll try and find it and take a count.

This one too.

I take it that you don’t want to spend the crazy money for the ADM-170-S that accu-shot offers for the Super Cal?


Or this:


Or this:


None of these are “budget” though.

223 but good 223 is over a buck a round too. The stuff that’s cheaper is shit.

Actually, all cheap factory ammo is shit.

Idk how tariffs will affect this but PPU 75 gr 223 has historically been some of the most accurate 223 ever out of my guns.

Historically it was always right around 75 cpr.

I guess if they knew every swinging dick was buying and using ammo, maybe they would shut the fuck up.

bump
I gotta get this thing gone. Need more ammo!

I was running them in a 223 with long throat mag fed.

I haven’t worn out a 223 barrel yet so not sure. And I don’t keep track of rounds fired but rough guess is my highest round count 223 has around 4000-5000 rounds through it and I just won a match with it last weekend so still shooting great!

All of this stuff is complicated and inter-related. I agree with ToddM - you really have to go back to the 1980's. Corporations realized that they could substantially reduce the cost of producing goods, lower their prices and actually increase profits by moving production overseas. It was a lot cheaper to pay a worker in Mexico or Vietnam $2 an hour to build cars or make sneakers than to pay an American worker $20/hr. And if suddenly Nike could actually lower prices and increase profits by moving production overseas, it wasn't long before its competitors (Reebok, Adidas, etc.) followed.

Ultimately, tariffs aren't going to solve this structural problem. In the short term they're basically a regressive tax that increase the cost of goods to consumers. But in the long term, even if they are successful in bringing back mfg. to the U.S., costs are not going to come down because U.S. wages are still significantly higher than in the third world countries where these goods are currently produced. So any money the mfg. saves on avoiding tariffs ends up being offset by the higher production costs they are faced with by making their products back in the U.S.

And unfortunately corporate greed is basically built into the system. It is human nature that people act in their own self interest. So when you tie the compensation of CEO's and top executives to the stock price and short term profitability of their company you encourage behavior that maximizes corporate profits above everything else. That's how they get bigger bonuses and their stock options become more valuable. And if the consumer or the employee working on the production line gets screwed - the CEO can always console himself by buying a bigger yacht.

Polyaspartic, hire a pro. Thank me later. Alternatively, I know people that have just placed those interlocking tiles on top of their concrete and have had good luck! Looks good. I need to do mine but I keep having cracks now showing up all over my slab!!!

Religious freedom was tried once in Texas, and the JBTs were around in short order to muder everyone involved and destroy all the evidence in a huge fire.

We'll see how this goes...



Because they own it, and they can sell it to whoever they want. It is their property.

There are actually a lot of faith-based land developments in the US.

If they worship their God and respect our laws, then GTG.

If they want to force others on public property to abide by their laws, start creating parallel government structures, and start doing separatism?

That's a big NO GO.

On this we are in agreement.

That said, just because something is private property doesn't mean that running a community by the 'higher law' of Sharia... is acceptable or legal. The Constitution and USCA are the 'law' not Allah's dictates as interpreted by Mullah's or tribal leaders. And these communities in the US and, especially overseas, have utterly failed to recognize the laws of the countries they are invading. Look at Paris, Berlin, London, Glasgow and the entire UK Midlands, Frankfurt, Dearborn, Hamtramac, Stockholm, Wisconsin and the dozens of smaller communities where the Somali infestation is epidemic.

So your If's are spot on. Unfortunately that is not how it works out in reality.

And I point out the 'Mormon and Davidian' examples that were prosecuted (note I do not say persecuted). Because while, especially, Waco was a travesty in the LE and Govt. response... the communities were NOT abiding by the laws. Child abuse, weapons violations, bigamy (which shouldn't be illegal anyway)... etc. were all happening and being flaunted. And all can be well and good until your 'charismatic leader' decides that the whole place needs to drink Kool-Aid, suicide themselves to catch a Comet or gas a subway system. Or fly planes into buildings... Because the 'charismatic leaders' are frequently nutballs or radicals... followed by nutballs and radicals.

Maybe the 72-Virgins-land will work out great and be paradise on earth. More likely, it will be come Hell on Earth for women, children and sooner or later will become an apocalypse... or contribute to one.

Hmmmm…that’s funny. I own my property and I can’t just do whatever I want. And I’m betting that if I started my own little community like that and had my own laws, that Uncle Sam would be over here real quick slapping my hand and putting the boot on my neck. Oh and nobody really owns anything in this country, you rent it.

Oh yeah, that one cult leader who proclaimed himself a deity or prophet or some shit, and then raped underage girls and masked the whole thing to fuck all the women in the cult? Like the predominant theme of all cult leaders...I remember it was in Waco.

If you say so... all the evidence burned, right?

All the "they're rapin' kids in there!" allegations were made by the guy who lost the compound/ flock to Koresh years earlier... which is why they lived.

It was not until 1987, after Lois died, that Koresh filed a document claiming to be the president of the Branch Davidian Seventh Day Adventist Association. Koresh and followers, further, went to Mt. Carmel center, engaging in a shootout with George Roden that eventually resulted in Koresh's group occupying the land.

George Roden thought he was going to inherit a ton of land through his father Ben Roden- who invented the "Branch Davidians" from the 7th Day Adventists- plus a congregation of worshipping people he could exploit.

He wasn't banking on a dude showing up who liked to wail out on the guitar, buy and sell at gun shows, and get the people AMPED UP during services.

He thought he was a part of a dynasty and didn't need to do anything.

His own congregation sent him packing... and he schemed to get them all killed by HRT... ALMOST EXACTLY like Terry Kinnison schemed to get HRT to kill Randy Weaver.

It's almost like there is a different path around "investigations" and "standard procedures" when Law Enforcement thinks they can collect a sport kill on their fellow American. They do it to send a message.

We have an ammo background check already so the cunt knows exactly how much I go through during a shooting season.

This law is mostly likely an attempt to find out how many people are buying ammo out of state to avoid the background check and fees in state.
