    Just moved to Southeast Wisconsin, Is anyone a member of Racine Rifle club?

    I've heard good things about the Racine range but am not a member. I hope it works out for you.

    New member from WI

    Welcome. Wisconsin has quite a few ranges if you are a member. Lodi goes to at least 1000, Racine to 500, Ripon to 5 or 600 and it's cheap, the Highlands is expensive last I checked but goes to 1000. Then the public range at Mcmiller I'm guessing is what you referred to out to 300 and Shiocton...

    Magnum ARs-Noreen Vs Falkor vs NEMO

    I've had a falkor petra for several years. It works great with federal gold medal match ammo but if you try to reload, you get issues. I don't run suppressed so don't have those issues either. I purchased it with multiple mags so I never have to worry about not being able to find a spare...

    Jury Duty

    I've had to serve on a jury twice and was called but didn't serve 2 other times. The twice I served, one was a criminal case, the other civil. Both took multiple days and reaching a verdict was difficult despite the cases seemingly being relatively straightforward. Getting 12 people to agree on...

    Looking for some info on the Nemo large frame AR platform

    Can't say anything about Nemo but I have a Falkor defense petra and love it. That might be bigger than you're looking for but it's a great gun although expensive.

    Tulsi changes her tune?

    She has previously supported banning semi automatics, supports the green new deal, supports universal basic income, supports Obamacare and endorsed Bernie Sanders for president. What's to like about her?

    LIVE: Returning to the Moon with ARTEMIS. LAUNCH RESCHEDULED FOR SEPTEMBER 5, 2022 AT 5:00 PM

    I'm proud to say that I worked on a material that is being used as a flame retardant on the external surface of the boosters for this launch. Incredibly small, insignificant roll but still cool to know what it's being used for.

    Best Ar

    I have an older model lmt with a quad rail. It's super heavy but runs flawlessly. I think newer models are lighter though. I prefer piston carbines for the reasons stated above.

    Short Barrel 300 WM.

    500-700 yards? You can do that with a 5.56. I have a 20" Falkor Petra .300 wm that hits out to 1200 yards with no issues. You could easily go down to 16" if you wanted.

    Stunning pictures!!

    Do you have any more close ups of this rifle? I like this color scheme and might try to have a rifle done in similar fashion locally.

    Any Jiu Jitsu practitioners here

    I was pretty excited when I got someone in a Peruvian necktie once. Never did it again but was pretty cool.

    The parallax knob values are arbitrary and meaningless. Don't worry about what they say.

    Any Jiu Jitsu practitioners here

    I did it for 3 years. Loved it but had more injuries in 3 years of BJJ than I've had in 25 years of competitive hockey. Never had back problems before or after it but for 3 years I was going to the chiropractor 2-3x a week and always in pain. Since I quit never had a problem again. I guess my...

    Hello from Illinois hoping soon to be Tennessee

    I'm actually in Palatine. I've heard of the Elmore range but have never been there so can't comment on it. There's a couple places in WI or Indiana that go to 1000 give or take but most tend to be private clubs. I hate that because they're far enough away that I'd only shoot there a few times a...

    Hello from Illinois hoping soon to be Tennessee

    Welcome from the burbs of Chiraq. Be glad you're down state. Honestly the government here is terrible but if you don't live directly in Chicago or Springfield, the people aren't that bad. But this isn't a great state for shooting long range. There's no real options unless you have private land.
