    What's Up With The Big-10?

    "Bastard Mike Years". That's a good one:) Every time my Bammer friends get on their high horse, I remind them of the great years under DuBose, Price and Shula. They simmer down just a little.....

    The NIGHTFORCE 2014 Steel City Precision Rifle Challenge- Birmingham, AL

    This one is close.Hoover, AL - Official Website - RV Park and Rentals I've never stayed there or seen it but the location is 5 minutes from the range. You can give them a call for more info. Oak Mountain State Park is about 15-20 minutes from the range and has a nice campground. You're...

    What's Up With The Big-10?

    ^^^Not sure I completely understand the analysis, but the Big-10 definitely has issues from top to bottom. Look at Ohio State, the bell cow of the conference, last year. They skated through a pussy schedule, then played two decent teams at the end (MSU & Clemson) and lost both. Hey, I'm an...

    Ravens release Ray Rice

    She's probably not into the beatings but she most definitely is into the money and lifestyle surrounding an NFL football player. Why else would anyone stay with a thug like him? Regarding the DA and police dropping the ball, seems like something similar to this happened in Tallahassee, FL...

    What's Up With The Big-10?

    The Big-10 has been down for years, but they look downright pitiful this year after several of their marquis teams were blown out and embarrassed yesterday in non-conference games. OSU losing at home by 2 touchdowns to an unranked team. Michigan shut out 31-0 by ND. Michigan State's...

    Oregon Ducks

    Based on their performance yesterday, they should make the 4 team playoff. They play only two decent teams the rest of the year, UCLA (Road) and Stanford (Home) neither of whom look like world beaters this year. Then probably USC in the conference championship team. I like their chances...

    Truck gun optic

    Get the Vortex 1-6x. It's definitely the best value in a fully featured low power variable right now. Daytime illuminated dot is great for close stuff on 1x and the glass is clear enough on 6x to get you on reasonable sized targets out to 600-700yds. Agree totally with the post describing the...

    Movie Theater Lone Survivor The Movie

    Definitely agree, but that is usually the case. Thought the movie did a respectable job of capturing the essence of the story. Books have the luxury of going into greater detail. What I really enjoyed about the book was the depth it went into about Pashtunwali and how that custom saved...

    Mike, you made me think of My Cousin Vinny - Fred Gwynne/Joe Pesci courtroom exchange:) Judge Chamberlain Haller: Mr. Gambini? Vinny Gambini: Yes, sir? Judge Chamberlain Haller: That is a lucid, intelligent, well thought-out objection. Vinny Gambini: Thank you, Your Honor. Judge...

    H4350 dpms lr-260

    Here is a good read on reloading for gas guns in general. John has been at this for over 20yrs and has a pretty good idea of what works, what doesn't, and variables to be considered when loading for gas guns. Toward the end, there is some specific info on 260 and 6.5 Creed loads...

    H4350 dpms lr-260

    Good question. OP, what is your COAL? If you have the room to load your rounds a little longer, even a few 100th's, it could relieve the pressure on the brass. 44.2gr of H4350 is definitely on the warm side for 123's in 260. John Paul (JPE) will be the first one to tell you that gas guns are...

    I think you have to pick an undefeated team? I did the same thing, picked Miami before realizing they lost to Louisville Monday night:)

    Gunsmithing 20" Barrel on 300 Win Mag

    What is the purpose of this rifle? Hunting? Target shooting? Many people's initial thought is probably "why would someone want to do this?" It would be helpful to understand what you want to do with the rifle as shortening the barrel on a 300WM to 20" is not a common modification.

    Backpack for competitions

    Nothing. Any 3-day type assault pack will work just fine for transporting your gear to/from or around the range. I'm a lot more concerned about my rifle, scope and ammo than my backpack....
