Great question. Commodity prices have gone up too. Copper and lead is more expensive.
So maybe it’s premature to start bashing the end guy selling when we don’t know who in the process is increasing prices and by how much.
Everyone is aware that ammo availability and prices are both crazy right now. Many have complained about price gouging. My question is, when your stock is almost non existent, and you don’t know when your next resupply is coming, wouldn’t you have to raise prices to weather the storm?
I don’t...
Climate change is a self fulfilling prophecy. If it rains too much, climate change. Not enough, climate change. If it rains just right, temperatures are now the marker. If temperature isn’t there, it’s floods, if not floods, hurricane.
Well at the end of the day, both of those things are true. LooneyTunes shouldn’t be where our country goes to for moral education. It’s a cartoon, not church. If you don’t like it, turn it off.
I have a small shank savage prefit criterion barrel in 6mm Creedmoor 26” long, that has 200 rounds through it. It has a black rattle can paint job and it’s muzzle is threaded 5/8-24. It’s a 1-7 twist varmint contour. Let me know if you want pics.
Has anyone questioned if the manufacturers or distributors are the ones jacking up the price? I wonder if that could be the case. SG ammo which has always been fair on pricing is jacked up too.
I have a 6arc, and I would not recommend it to the casual shooter compared to 556. Even with the ammo shortage, you can go on forums and buy 556 ammo. While it may be at inflated prices, those prices are less than 6arc before the craze. Now 6arc is hard to get and I wouldnt be surprised if...
It has been covered here in detail but carbon builds up, reduces effectiveness of sound suppression and increases weight. This even happens in centerfire cans. Sure some people never clean their centerfire cans and are ok with that. But the general consensus that centerfire cans are self...
I don’t clean the pistons on my trucks engine so I don’t ever clean my guns.
That’s how ridiculous that post was. Gasoline and gun powder are a little different. Guns and cars are totally different. Try putting 20Ksi of pressure into the top of an engine and let me know how that goes.
I bought the SE for the feature set vs price, not the glass. It’s functional but not great. My older XTRII wasn’t even functional. The turrets on my SE are no worse than my Tango 4’s, vortex vipers, or pst’s.
Maybe I had a really old XTRII, but I disagree. My XTRII glass wasn't noticeably different than the Strike Eagles I have. Granted, the turrets on the XTR were better, but everything else is better with the Strike Eagle (reticle, illumination, etc). I actually sold my XTRII immediately after it...
