NEW From Zermatt Arms - RimX Actions

The RimX for the longest was the underdog. It was Vudoo or bust. When the RimX started to get “modded” recently I noticed an increase in interest from folks who otherwise would have never given the RimX a chance. Just be glad you weren’t around when they first came out and had extractor issues. You’d probably cry. Folks need to calm the fuck down. Zermatt isn’t trying to pull a fast one on anyone or trying to hide anything. Yeah it sucks and shit takes time. I don’t work for them or even begin to know why things changed with production to begin with. Just throwing my two pesos in because I’m on the shitter trying to push out a turd.

Hog hunting rifle choice

Better terminal performance on body shots, recovered more runners on average than when using mk262. Was hunting with govt guys that were bringing free mk262 to use. Free ammo is always best ammo, but if I’m buying ammo, I prefer to use the Barnes 70. This is shooting at night from short ARs, typically 100m and in, with occasional shots out to 300m. Large groups of pigs, trying to eradicate as many as possible for population control. Not unheard of to go through 100+ rounds per night. If I was shooting steel only out to 600m, I would hands down go with the mk262.

East Plano Islamic Center: 74 homes only member of Masque can purchase. Sharia Law etc

Ol Dave admitted in interview, as did the some of his rape victims, before the botched raid.

Nope, he sure didn't.

DOJ would have loved it if he did though.

On the second part- you're talking about the testimony of Kiri Jewell, who left the sect with her mother long before all this went down. She actually made the claim via her mother 2 years prior to the burn... but the investigation didn't bring up any evidence, and the current members at that time refuted the story.

AND ANYWAY... if legitimate law enforcement wanted to run a legitimate investigation (which 100% should happen) don't you think they would just pick him up while he was jogging the property line every-single-day and question him, before... perhaps... a trial?

They actually showed up with the TX NG and burned the house down... with all the "other victims" (according to their story) inside... after they went full Blaze Ops on the building and shot and killed many of the people they were "rescuing."

Does any of that make sense to you at all?

Many of you guys are too young to remember, but we just had the 1990 Bush Ban- and Gov was gearing up to go tyranical. They started jocking up FBI HRT, ATF, and other agencies to be ready to carry out military-style operations against the American people if they didn't go along with what was planned.

HRT snuffed out Randi Weaver's family in 1992, burned down the Waco Compound in 1993, and then they dropped the Assault Weapons Ban on us in 1994. The message was clear- if you FA, you will FO... we are not trying to "investigate" or "arrest" anyone, and we will murder your entire family and destroy all the evidence.

This is the history of the United States of America.


On this we are in agreement.

That said, just because something is private property doesn't mean that running a community by the 'higher law' of Sharia... is acceptable or legal.

Ohhhhh- well it shouldn't have to be said, but the "ZOMG Sharia Law!" angle on the story is pure bullshit.

You can't tell that guy is full of shit from the way he's talking?

Some of you guys have broken BS detectors.

It's like when they tried to fake Park51 as a "Ground Zero Victory Mosque" when it was in fact several Manhattan blocks away, and much closer to City Hall.... and it also was not even a Mosque, but actually like a YMCA.

Perhaps there was "victory" though in getting something built in Manhattan via Islamic banking and not going into debt slavery to...

Favorite Trainer Round

I agree that the majority of training can be accomplished without shooting a round.

I disagree that training with a 22lr instead of a duplicate(or close to) centerfire training rifle will provide as good of training. Assuming you are competing in centerfire competition that is. It's definitely better than no live fire at all but there are nuances that training with a dramaticly different cartridge won't provide. Training is always better than no training but training with the exact equipment you're going to use is always going to be the most effective.
I agree that using the same cartridge is better, but due to Range requirements and cost, that would end my competitive shooting. I also work out at home and save the membership cost. YMMV.

7mm PRC

As a follow up question - who has found an acceptable powder in LRT, Magnum, Retumbo, etc. my bbl doesnt love h1000, and it could be 2 years before i find another keg of rl26 (which i burn in my 6.5prc as well)

anyone?
What bullet weight? I’m using Retumbo for Berger 190s and it is getting near 3000 fps in a 30” barrel. SDs are a bit higher than I prefer, but results on target have been very acceptable.

Favorite Trainer Round

IMO 80% of training can be achieved with cheap ammo like CCI Standard velocity, inside of 100yards I don’t think CCI SV give up anything for training purposes, and inside of 150yards you still have good enough precision.
I find in my stronger positions I’ll out shoot CCISV at 100. Even a good practice day in the low standing and low kneeling positions give me tight groups than CCI will shoot. Almost all my practice is on paper though, so I know where every shot goes.

NEW From Zermatt Arms - RimX Actions

There are a lot of non-malicious reasons to change the material and processes used in manufacturing. If the source of the old material suddenly raised prices or stopped being an option, they may have been forced with a decision between angering people by raising prices, ending the product line, or just switching to a new material they felt confident would do the job instead. It sounds to me like the new material has no performance or safety concerns except for one place that is having accelerated wear due to higher local stresses, and Zermatt is openly working on correcting this. I agree it's unfortunate for us consumers that this happened, but do we want to contribute to a culture of zero tolerance for mistakes with companies that try to innovate with 22lr? I'm glad rimfire is getting attention and interested manufacturers, and I can deal with hiccups when I see a manufacturer trying to fix things.
For most of us, a custom action, especially in 22LR, is very expensive luxury. The market is also quite small, compared to other shooting markets. When it works poorly, that has a huge negative impact on possible sales. I get the “just be patient” vibes, but once they take the $$$, it’s past a friendship situation.
