    I shot an AI today, and I liked it

    I have both an AI AT-X, and a Sako TRG 22A1. My Sako runs smoother than my AI, but the cheekpiece and adjustable butt on the AI locks up tighter. Bonus that the AI has the ability to swap prefit barrels in about two minutes. Ergos are ALMOST a wash as both are excellent and well thought...

    Miniature Bull Terriers

    Thankfully no. That isn't my sorry attempt to crap on you either man. It is just that mini-anythings have more health issues though. Breeders are going for size and not confirmation. I know that someone with the best-est mini is getting ready to flame me now. I've got a couple thousand dogs...

    Miniature Bull Terriers

    Do you have the personality, time and energy to train and physically stimulate a breed that had aggression bred into it? If yes, then look at the health concerns for standard Bull Terriers and multiply that by two... as mini anythings have got so many more health problems.

    Good deal on ZT KNIFE

    Sweet find. Those are fantastic knives. I had a 0350 for a couple years. It was literally stolen out of my desk at a SCIF within the depths of the Pentagon... so the thief had at least a TS clearance, and was a fellow Marine. You need to get a deep pocket carry clip to make one of those...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Handguns...show 'em

    It would be somewhat difficult to suck (more) shooting a heavier pistol that had less recoil and reduced report. Those are the two biggest factors for flinch and anticipation. I think this is more mechanical. I've also been wrong before.

    Hunting

    Hunt cold fronts, the backsides of big storms, and pay attention to the wind. If you have to crap, do it by your buddy's stand.

    Precision Rifles.....show em!!

    I mean, Elevation Rifles is slapping together already built Seekins rifles and Nightforce optics, and doing "load development"... and up-charging at least $1K for the packages he's selling. https://elevationrifles.com/#packages Or, you can get a twice the price - just as nice Gunwerks rifle...

    Precision Rifles.....show em!!

    Plenty of outstanding PROVEN gunsmiths, with decades of solid work that'll spend time on the phone with you to set things up how you'd want if one lacks the experience to make informed decisions... and they aren't going to charge you outside the cost of the rifle. Moreso, they aren't going to...

    LOL. That one the LEO may walk on, but the family of the guy who got ventilated would be millionaires. :D In this case, old dude is going to be tasting chocolate thundersticks for quite a few years.

    He also apparently charges you $200 for 30 minutes of his time for build consultation (prior to building), or to troubleshoot ideas to you over the phone. :LOL: I know what combination of 8 parts will work together too. https://www.paramounttactical.com/product/build-it-right/ His business...

    Who thinks he's better than you, deserves special privileges over you, and has sold out for personal gain. It is possible to undo the good that you once did for your country. John McCain, John Kerry and many others have taken the same route before. This isn't an attack aimed at you man. I'm...

    Well, I do think there's an issue, but the Airman in WY story 'piqued my curiosity'.

    At least she kept her finger off the trigger? I still can't look at this without getting mad.

    Maggie’s Another M18 accidental discharge

    This bullshit RIGHT HERE is why I want to read the final report. Not taking SIGs side... never owned a P320 and never will. I just know what idiot troops are capable of.

    6BR Norma shooter needs help with hunting bullet selection.

    I think just about every bullet mentioned already is going to work. Since 6BR, I'm assuming accuracy is going to be there... so I'm just jumping in to point out that shooting hogs in the head and neck don't require much of any kind of fancy bullet.

    Christensen Evoke

    OP: Are you seeking consensus, or are you looking for the opinions of others with experience (or similar) in your particular cartridge and rifle of choice? I view Christiansen the same way I do a Bergara; you can get a great-shooting one or end up with a dud, or something in between. There is...

    Work compensation --how would you handle this?

    Some really good points above. I'll just summarize in as few words as possible: They pay you what they value you at. If that isn't in line with what you value yourself at, then it is time to start quietly looking for employment elsewhere.

    Seating question

    Man, I'm not a huge fan of compressing... but I do like my case fill closer to 100% than 80%. Doesn't mean that I have to discourage others from compressing a load if they're getting the velocity/accuracy they want (safely). Same with crimping. Every AR load I've ever made has had a light...
