Parting with a classic... Colt 1911 Mk IV Series 70 Gold Cup National Match 45 ACP Asking $1500

Last I checked, Texas is an "at will" employment state. They can fire you at any time, for any reason, or for no reason at all. Severance only comes into play if you have a prenegotiated contract that includes it. Executives typically have those in place, but not the common hourly or even...

@NiteQwill beat me to it. That's the one I received in email.

Midsouth has plenty of 8lbers in stock, several Hodgdon and VV with free hazmat. I grabbed kegs of N140 and N565

I try to make objective based decisions, and really define the purpose. You mention steel out to 1700 and hunting elk/deer in the PNW. Two very different objectives. 6.5 PRC, 7 SAUM and 300 SAUM/WSM are good options, but the rifle configuration will determine how much you like the rifle. An...

AR Comp has been a good alternative in 5.56 and 7.62x51 loads. I haven't tried it in my M1s yet. Sticking with H4895 until I run out.

Sounds about right. I sold a few that were on crossover rigs. The 3.5MILs was a no go for long range steel.

I transitioned my dedicated hunting rifles to the 3-12x42 Klassik with their P3L Illuminated mil-dot reticle. For the price, it's a damn good optic. I was very surprised by how well you could see into the shadows and underbrush while hunting. Very bright image! The Illumination is great for...

Nothing I threw on paper is to scale, it's just to illustrate an idea. I'll leave the details to the professionals.

For the past year I've been using the Vortex LHT line. The 3-15x42 SFP with HSR-5i and their 4.5-22x50 FFP and XLR-2. I'd really like to blend the two optics into a 3-18x44 FFP. For the reticle, I'd like to keep elements of the HSR-5i, but make it FFP. To aid in low magnification usability I...

I don't have my log book with me, but a little over 500 total. Things could certainly change as the barrel wears and the firecracking gets worse...

For what it's worth... I run a 20 inch Shilen, chambered 22-250 AI. I went with their 4-groove, 1-7.5 ratchet rifling hoping it would reduce jacket failures. I've shot 55gr Nosler BTs for fireforming all the way up to 90gr SMKs. Zero jacket failures to date. 55 NBT over H380 75 ELDM over...

He plans to keep it and see if his son gets interested in firearms, right now it's not his thing. If he ever decided to sell, I'm first in line and have 3 sons to pass it to. The story won't be lost and he knows it would be appreciated in my small collection.
