Bin Laden was our creation as far back as AFG. don't know if it is true but i read him Quoted as saying that he would not have planned 9/11 if we weren't totally supporting Israel. don't remember the source.
why do we need to be "the world's leading country"? that is nothing but a sop for the egos of self impressed jackasses. sort of a respect my authority (or power) for a country instead of for cops. the world has changed since 1945 and ruling it with bombs and bullshit about spreading democracy doesn't seem to doing us much good here. of course,military interference in other countries is very profitable for some. if we don't have the money we can always print more.
our war mongering neocons and people who cheer them on remind me of jr high bullies that push their size around because they can.
agree that the Houthis attacking commerce in the Red Sea should be stopped. we tried it,ran out of air defense missiles and retreated when it didn't work.
it helps that the American sheeple are asleep. we can bomb away and if only a few coffins come back here nobody notices. if all we had done in VN was rolling thunder and no ground combat units the protest movement never would have started. could have gotten away with some base security or just used Thailand and not many would have noticed.
yea,3rd world sucks. stay out of it and don't let them come here-problem solved. of course gotta get involved to be able to grab the resources and make mucho corp profits.

Cha fucking ching. Our total support of Zionist Israel is EXACTLY why we are so hated there. Let them settle their own problems. Not one more dollar or American life.

$1,600 shipped to your FFL CONUS. Won't ship to Cali.

Brand new in the factory plastic case from Larue. 6.5 Creedmoor.

This is the cheaper version. I know they sell an expensive version but this is the base model.

Having had several Howa rifles, I have to ask, how committed are you to the factory barrel? My experience with Howa factory barrels haven't been great. A 308 that would shoot great at 100 yards but went to shit for grouping at anything past that, and a 6.5 Grendel that barely held 1 MOA with anything.

On that 308 I sent several thousand rounds downrange and it only got worse over time.

I would try some different powders, specifically Varget and BLC-2. If either of those don't tighten things up, I would pull that barrel and put a Bartlien Brux or Krieger on.

We just rebarreled a mini for a guy after he spent a lot of dollars in ammo trying to get better than fist sized groups. Now it's shooting dimes.

I understood that but the 7 generally, apples to apples, stays supersonic longer. Again, all else being as equal as possible will they perform similar at 2500 or will they both tail off due to falling velocity. I'm not looking for an exact, absolute, answer, just a general comparison.

They will perform very similar at that distance. Similar BC bullet going similar speed.

Splash is a huge divider at ELR distances. Can't correct off what you can't see. 7 will be hard to see at that distance unless you have spectacular moon dust. Where I shoot normally it's really hard to spot a 7mm at 1500 Yards. When I go out to Wyoming it's relatively easy to see a 7mm at 2000 yards.

If you want a 7mm @diggler1833 has a point a 7-300 PRC is hard to beat ballistically. But to reiterate most people aren't shooting a 375 for the better ballistics, (it's not much better than a fast 30) it's for the splash at those distances.

I have a black buddy who lived in Memphis so I've spent a bit of time ther, this was circa 2010. Met some really good black folks, but damn, there was a Mall that had so much crime they bulldozed the whole thing. Thats fucked up. Just heard Trumpster's sending troops to un fuck it. Good luck.

Memphis is a big name, we forget that Little Rock is fucking crazy too, and places in Florida (Tampa?), Oakland Cali, Seattle is a toilet too. All our cities suck tbh.

Have you learned a new language using unlimited data connectivity and an app on your phone?

I sure haven’t, and remain as dumb as ever View attachment 8769240

As a matter of fact, I’m posting all this dumb s**t on the Hide right now View attachment 8769241

I've never been good at language, I barely passed the required foreign language courses in middle school. I suppose it would be very different for me, if there was more necessity. I have family in switzerland, they speak many languages. I think my cousins speak 4, my aunt 7, and my uncle who has the biggest ego on the damn planet. If his head were a little larger, you'd be able to see the top of it just over the horizon from the east coast. He apparently speaks everything, like 12 or 13, something like that. I speak the only one that matters (english) and i'm dabbling in sarcasm...my 17 year old is fluent in sarcasm, as well as shit talking, i'm just trying to communicate with her.

Combine both; 7-300 PRC. Run your same 7 PRC bullets about 150-200 FPS faster. Better ballistics, less recoil than a 300 PRC. Same dies and readily available brass as a 300 PRC if you already have those. All you need is a bushing.

Or do a 28 Sherman Mag or 28 Nosler. Just get two barrels cut at a time. Barrel life is going to be the only drawback (7-800 rounds).

Came here to say this. The 7-300 PRC is what the 7 PRC should have been.

Red union activists.

Violence is called for in the left’s doctrine.

Trying to paint “years of Obama and Clinton and Biden” commie Stooge “research” as valid is completely retarded and goes against historical fact for generations.

Yeah… ok… the Clan was all right wing violence. Fact is they were democrats and were fighting against the rights of black Americans to better themselves. That is not right wing violence… that was Jacksonian democrats, civil war democrats, Wilson democrats, New Deal Democrats and Johnson Democrats… until he “sold them out” by getting the Republicans to pass the Civil Rights bill for him.

Right wing violence in the USA is limited to a very few incidents…. McVeigh (nutball) was among the worst. And he was acting in a misguiddd way to respond to the killings at Ruby Ridge (which was an over-blown government response to perceived [not actual] right wing violence.) And Waco Seige which was, again, an over response to a perceived threat… not an actual one.

The Right Wing nutballs preaching violence in the ‘70’s and ‘80’s never got any real traction. But sure we’re great excuses for the hard left to go after civil rights and, to use the Fascist and communist playbook, accuse the other side of exactly what you are doing.

By that… the Weather Underground, the free Puerto Rico types, the Red Brigades, the Symbianese Liberation Front and all manner of crackpot leftist revolutionaries who bombed everything from ROTC buildings to Science Labs To the Capitol.

Right wing violence is “almost” but not quite a myth but it’s a 199 percent stalking horse to let the left scream “they are violent and we are justified in using violence to stop them.” Not to mention justifying cancel culture, attacks on free speech, destruction of 2a (their most important target), etc etc etc.

But they will continue to accuse the other side of what they are doing…. It’s how they roll.

Teddy Roosevelt became president when an anarchist killed McKinley. And I think Gito or whomever shot Garfield was a unionist too.

Yep.

Made a big mistake and moved from the great free state of Oklahoma (Sooners Rule!) to New Mexico, thinking "Well, its blue, but its in the SW, surrounded by AZ., and South Oklahoma (aka Texas), how bad could it be. DOH! While my area is beautiful, and the dry climate at 6000 feet is wonderful for the bones, its that bad. The governor is a commie cunt of the first degree

. NM is last in education, second in crime, medical professionals are fleeing because of her malpractice laws, and its poor as crap. What does Gov. Grisham do? Holds a benifit to raise funds for PBS.

There are lots of good folks here, dont mean to disrepect them, but Albq. and Santa Fe out vote us. With ranching going the way of the dodo, and the cities growing, little chance of positive change.

No wife, kids, family, or job, color me gone.

Thanks dad.

What if I told you I’m doing the same thing? I run a blade as a side job to make ends meet as well. And my wife has a full time job as well.

What if I told you it didn’t use to be this way.

If you go back far enough, there was a time where every member of the family would work to just be poor. Kids barely getting an elementary education before leaving school to get a job in a factory, or mine, to help ensure the family has a small amount of food on the table, and a shitty roof over their heads. We're a long way from that. You're not entitled to the life they had in the 50's. The government has printed money to build the $29T economy we had in 2024. Government has spent trillions building the infrastructure that we have today that gives us access to anything and everything that we need, or want, with free prime 2 day shipping. You don't spend that kind of money without the hens coming home to roost at some point. If you can't afford to buy a new home because of the price, ok, build it yourself, building materials are roughly 30-35% of the cost of the house according to my neighbor that builds houses for a living. My biological father built his house himself largely. There were aspects of it that contractors were hired for, but he built most of the place himself.

I'm not trying to be a dick and say you suck at life, or take shots at anyones life experience. I'm saying that you gotta live in this world that it is today, or it's gonna pass you up and leave you in the dust, without a second thought. There is absolutely zero chance that we are going to go back to the type of era where a man could have a entry level job, and own a house, raise a family with a stay at home mom, and have 2 cars. It's just not going to happen. So if you're just holding on, hoping that maybe the world will adjust, you're in for a very rough ride with no payoff at the end, i'm sorry.

It should be obvious to everyone what the problem is, leftists act up every decade or so until they go crazy and start bombing stuff (1900-20s bombings, Weather Underground, etc etc). Now they're going crazy again and they'll have to be jailed and disbanded etc until their insanity once again pops up.
