    Range Report What the monkey duece..? (Something I'm kinda picking up)

    Rifle Scopes Topped out PST on the barrett

    I was trying to figure out the same thing. No offense to the OP, but it sounds like operator error to me. Wilsey, you do realize that the bullet can cross the point of aim at two different distances, one closer and one a fair bit further. You also realize that you don't necessarily have to get a...

    Re: Powerful "Flame" cyber weapon found in Iran The fun thing is, pretty much all "internet security developers" have agreements with our government not to list their spyware and viruses as "viruses". We all probably have it, and just don't know it. Who knows what other stuff from other...

    Re: best bull shizzle someone told you and was serious I was at an event for work, and started talking with a guy. He had heard from a mutual friend that I liked rifles, so he started talking to me, and asked what I shot. I told him that I shot a custom Remington 700, and it was chambered in...

    Re: ballistic tips, after the shot... I've shot quite a few deer with 180 grain Nosler ballistic tips pushed pretty quick from a .300 winmag. All the deer I hit with there were at 300 yards or less. Maybe I was pushing them too fast, but they always seemed more on the "explosive" side to me...
