Can’t say that I blame them, with the stated goal of wiping Israel off the map, they can’t be allowed to have a nuclear weapon, ever, not so long as they’re a Muslim nation with such objectives.

so we should encourage SK to attack NK? and get India to attack Pakistan? no Iran would obviously be lethal if it had nucs. are they any more reckless than Pakistan that allowed supplies to get to the Taliban or protect ISIS inside their border? any more reckless than NK firing missiles all over the western Pacific? the whole world wide nuc weapons problem needs some very skillful and intelligent work by us at least. i don't think Graham and Levin are the rabid war mongers to be handling that.

I get it though I used to be all “glass Iraq, Afghanistan etc… basically gotta take out all the Muslims” that’s not me anymore, nor would that actually end things… the way those things end is to destroy Islam with truth until they can’t deny it’s nothing but BS made up by a nut job sicko.

Why do religious people always think their favorite fiction book is true, the only one that's for sure true, but all the other ones are totally fake and the fairy tales in those other books are all lies?

My most wild shot was my first deer when I was 11. My dad had shot a doe on our farm, and we were dragging it out. I had a Winchester 30-30. We got to a drainage ditch and were taking a break. I heard galloping and looked up as three deer were leaping over us. I threw up the 30-30 and worked that lever, I think I shot 3 or 4 times, but I saw one of the deer shake his head and heard a thud. Got out of the ditch and I had hit him right under the chin. My dad always said, be glad I was here because no one will ever believe this one. I said it was like shooting ducks.

Nope, killing into submission and/or the unborn stops the problem every time. That concept was proven to be 100% correct in 08/45

Edit to add,
Remember they did not think we were serious, even though more died during the fire bombings. Then came Aug 6th but after Aug the 9th they took us at our word, see a pattern there?

You missed my point.

And youre wrong if youre speaking about Nazis, they still stink up the world, albeit less now than then.

Ok guys here’s the roughly 3weeks after shipping the scope they called to let me know that they scrapped that one and sent out a brand new one. Very quick and impressive customer service. Thank you Leupold

this is what i was going to comment on. for consistency we should have declared war,invaded and destroyed Israel. if you notice the death of Americans was far worse here than at Tonkin where 0 Americans died. we got got our revenge on NVN didn't we? 58K dead and a untied communist VN. never been anti Semitic but of late have become very anti Israel. their spying,domestic interference,political manipulation and begging us to save them frequently is getting old. are they doing anything essentially different than China? oh yes they are our "special" ally.
they treat the US like their butt boy. our pols enable that for their own empowerment and enrichment. and since so many of them are pervs,it helps to have a guy like Jeff on the payroll.
you can give Carter credit for all the problems with Iran since '79.

That’s what that generation calls “ gauges” …translates to maiming one’s ears by cutting holes in ear lobes and inserting that big black things in there. I don’t get it or like it but it’s his ears. . He’s a badass with a Black Belt , takes 0 shit , a good person , hubs, and dad , has almost as much ammo and weapons than me , and wears a MAGA hat. He fucked the ears up in 2005 ??

It’s not just one. It’s Philip’s 66, and Valero closing by 2026 and prior to that Greka and Santa Maria. Chevron moved the HQ out to Texas.

Gas tax is implemented July 1st, and gas overall by 2026/7 is expected to go up like $8/ gallon

Campers I could use some help getting my RimX bolt back together. I disassembled/cleaned/lubed/re-assembled the bolt and experienced a number of ignition failures after re-assembly; more failures with Eley than with SK Match which makes me think I screwed the firing pin bolt too far back?

PrimalRights YT Video references a divot on the fp rod that needs to be timed with the port housing two set screws. I do see a slight divot on the fp rod threads but I'm not sure if it's from the factory or from my prior re-assembly with the set screws. I'm having a difficult time seeing that divot through the port housing the two set screws.

Anyone have tips/tricks/guidance on a framework to ensure successful re-install of the fp rod/spring into the cocking piece?

What are you shooting?
I ask because, for ME, it depends on how heavy the gun is and how hard it kicks. There's a reason long range guns use those super wide stanced bipods; it's because it keeps it settled during recoil so the gun doesn't jump all over the place during firing. For most smaller pods, the width or stance is 6.5" wide, like my harrises. For my br4 accutac, it's a full three inches wider than that at 9.5". Though remember, something no one ever told me, or anyone else for that matter is that the stance means NOTHING whatsoever, if the cant doesnt lock up tight.
If theres a little kick to the gun, and it doesnt lock up tight, you're going to see the guns becoming more unlevel with each shot, forcing you to level it back up again, every time. Also, it adds a bit of uncontrolled variance in between each shot that an absolute solid pod will not.
My small harrises are fine on my AR's, but will jump WILDY with my mauser or my pencil barrel .270 with full bore loads. It jumps both off the table and cocks the shit out of the cant every time on the little harris. With my br4 accutac, it doesnt move whatsoever. BUT, that's partially due to when I torque that lever down on the cant, she stays put every time, for the entire range session. Even on my mauser, which kicks HARD. And I dont go to the range for an hour; I'm usually there four hours minimum every time. It's a TOTALLY different shooting rifle because of that.

I guess to answer your question, for ME, I like the compactness (both the length and width when stowed) of the BR-4 G2. It's not gigantic on the gun when folded (though definitely bigger than my atlas, and a tad smaller than my warne and about the same as my parker hale) heavy, (i love weight) and easy to adjust and is the cockiest, overbuilt pod I've ever messed with besides the bipod on my M60. I'm so impressed with it Im buying three more for the rest of the fleet.

Oh, well that changes things.

SWC is a bit shorter and squatter which allows for the 190 class to be more easily mag fed in short action binder plate-less mags, which is where the ballistic coefficient has to be to pull ahead in prs target distances, the lighter 160gr stuff looses that bc advantage over the 6.5 heavies but dont make up enough speed either.

Brings up a good question.

Trump promised more drilling, cheaper gas. Why has gas risen from $2.50 when he took office to almost $3.00 now?

This was a few years ago. Just got back from an archery hunt where I killed a stud 10 pointer and a doe within a day of each other.

The following week it was gun season and was fortunately invited to some private ground with some good friends. I showed up on Friday. After about an hour in the stand I had a code brown and HAD to get down. 10 seconds after climbing in the stand there was a giant 9 pointer that ran 20 yards right in front of me that one of the other guys bumped. My best ever year and probably won’t ever repeat that in my lifetime.
