    Colorado...... Just posting a video. Only word i'll say is,,,, priorities.

    I applaud your position and consider it the very cornerstone of Liberty. Liberty can not exist without tolerance. However your right to keep and bear arms does not depend on others approval. Every other person in the USA could disagree with your right to keep and bear arms but you would still...

    Nikon M308 No more adjustment left to properly site in scope.

    My experience has been that the scopes nowadays are pretty centered and the mount is not aligned with the bore if you run out of adjustment. Put another scope on it, you dont have to tighten the other scope down or even fire it just bore sight it on a apple and see if the problem repeats. If...

    Colorado...... Just posting a video. Only word i'll say is,,,, priorities.

    In my opinion the legalization of marijuana is the lesser of two evils. Legalization deprives the violent drug cartels of profit and power. Legalization frees up jail space for more violent offenders. Legalization provides a revenue stream for the state instead of a revenue drain for...

    Snipershide 2013 white elephant gift exchange

    Very true. Ive got a lot of stuff that is solid, but i wont use it. It isnt worth the time to ship it if I sell it. I was planning on shipping the lot of it down to a instructor at the gunsmithing school in Trinidad sooner or later, I know the kids down there would incorporate it into...

    Lasik

    This is the best post in the thread in my opinion. I believe some doctors are still making the cuts with keratomes??? Most of the problems experienced with Lasik were from the keratomes and cuts. Make sure the laser is cutting the flap as well as doing the shaping. Now, not when you show up...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Favorite revolver

    Im VERY fond of the K and N frame smiths made in the 70s but for some reason Im drawn to the Ruger security sixes. Maybe its because the Ks and Ns are too nice to actually use. Maybe its because of the forcing cones Ive split on ks with a steady diet of hot .357s. For whatever reason my...

    New duty weapon, I want your suggestions

    What a load of crap over mags that are legal to possess as they are grandfathered and only one freakin round over the limit. Total BS but the policy makers will defend it to the last as the decision represents their perceived value to the organization you work for. My guess is the very thing...

    AR15 with 90 grain berger at 2905 fps, impossible? Not so much.

    Thank you for sharing. A 90 at 2900 out of the 15 platform out of a magazine is incredible performance. Hell thats less wind drift than a 6.5x55 shooting 140s amaxes at 2800! Many things that should have popular have not been but with those numbers I cant see it (name needed) not being...

    New duty weapon, I want your suggestions

    Im assuming the request is due to Colorados new law restricting mag capacity on new magazines at 15rds or less, and your jet funnel USP is a bit over yes? Glock 21? Glock 22? Glock 19? Glock 30? All at 15 or under. Assuming they consider the glock safe action a DAO. Forget about the paint...

    The great 6.5mm vs. .308 Bullet Debate, but with TERMINAL BALLISTICS

    A soft bullet ala SST with a 6.5 in the heart/lungs puts deer size game down inside of ten steps in my experience. Ive never shot one at over 300 yards. Elk I go to a 7 and a bonded bullet, .308 is adequate. Matching the bullet to the animal AND where you hit the animal is very important if...

    Rifle Scopes Primary Arms scopes ?

    The base fasteners are crap on a wide number of imported brand mounts, some imported by much bigger and well known companies than Primary arms. The quality of the cap fasteners doesnt really matter as they are going into aluminum. The nuts are particuarly bad, I think they melt tin cans... The...

    Its not FFP. Its not a S&B or a SWFA HD. Just passing on to the hide what seems to me to be a very good value for 350 smackers. Burris MTAC 4.5-14x42 Tactical Mil Dot Rifle Scope - Sportsman's Warehouse

    6.5x55 swedish vs .260

    Lapua brass available for the 6.5x55. 100fps more out of the 6.5x55. Case capacity better suited to slow 6.5 powders in the 6.5 x55. 6.5x55 cartridge seats up against lands at magazine length in a long action. 6.5x55 WINNING. but only in a long action.

    Rifle Scopes Need input choosing a mid-range FFP scope for 458 Socom

    Well there are many much more knowledgable than me here but here goes. At 600 yards I like a little more power than 9 or ten. I know the consensus is 9 or ten is good enough at 600 I just like a little more. That being said dont rule out the SWFA 3x9. Its glass makes up for its being...

    Foreign Exchange Trading

    Its gambling. You can play it from a macro economic standpoint. gambling. Trends. gambling. Technical analysis. gambling. Big leverage big losses and big wins. As mentioned HFT algos and the big boys call the shots. Everyone uses stop losses but if you do they will be picked off in the wee...

    Firearm Transfer in Colorado

    $60 is awfully steep. Doesnt the gal that does transfers and nothing else at the Tanner gunshows charge $15? Diferentiating the service inbetween "entering it into the books" and doing the transfer is fair enough since the law specified transfers must be done for $10 and I dont expect any...

    7mm-08 powders

    I used ww760 and H4I4. Great velocity, metering, and accuracy but temperature sensitive. Safe loads developed in 70 degree weather showed pressure in 90+ degree weather. If I was to start again I would try H4350. It seems to be the extruded go to in cases that run out of room.

    Gunsmithing Ring torque spec; Dry, lubricated, loctite?

    Perhaps I am a egghead because I really enjoy playing with that Futek caculator. Its the first representation Ive found that shows how lubricity affects torque. In the industry I work in every fastener has a torque value, everything has a explicit assembly procedure. The assembly procedures...

    Thank you for this information. I read it several times. I appreciate your effort to inform and setting the tone that this is a subject of the utmost seriousness. My post was not well communicated. I quoted your post with a "this" to indicate I thought it was the best post on the topic. My...
