Ammo Norma Match - 300 Norma 230 gr Hybrid

I purchased this ammo from Mountic a couple years ago for a rifle I have recently sold. I have approximately 160 rounds left, looking for $3.50 per round shipped via PP f&f.

Same ammo as in the link

Thanks SCOTUS!!! Deportations are Constitutional. Adios!!

How about this. How about the girl the four white guys knew in high school was the fake and when she became an adult she defaulted into the ghetto queen. Those tribal drums are powerful.
I would say that those would be her exact arguments vis a vis her reinvention as champion of the poor, downtrodden, racist blacks. It is by the same reasoning that Duchess of Essex, Meghan Markle is a downtrodden victim playing the race card. DEI/ESG racism is nothing but a vehicle to make the masters into permanent victims who cannot be criticized, regardless of the reality we share.

You know, it didn't used to be completely fake like this. Democrats in particular used to tout that they they were for the poor, but not of the poor. They put forth they were exceptional people with the highest levels of elite education, and did not have to pretend that they ever cleaned a toilette or moped a floor. To get elected today that can't just claim to be FOR the people. They have to create a false persona that they are OF the people.
Unfortunately for them the last seventy five years of Democrat Party politics elevated all the Senator Eliot Rosewaters exclusively, and the working class finally stopped trusting their lies and grift for their own personal benefit. They've reversed their messaging and public personas a hundred and eighty degrees, but have the same elite archetypes in leadership. More of the same with an evolving messaging to convince people they are for anyone but themselves.

There are, of course, more expensive, elite, private/boarding schools in the Northeast, but MICDS costs over thirty thousand a year in the Midwest regardless of the grade. These are the children of the captains of industry, and the 1%. Their list of notable students, whose names we all would recognize (both for achievements and just being filthy rich) runs pages and pages. If you enter your kid at kindergarten by the time they graduate you will have spent over $400,000 and you haven't paid for a day college yet! Think about that. Elite prep schools like this are the primary feeders of non-scholarship Ivy League undergrads who are going to spend even more than that in four years. I'm pretty sure the mean cost of an education like this is around a million dollars.

To suddenly, or even over time, present yourself as some champion OF the people speaks to an intrinsic dishonestly. How is it any different than a heavy equipment operator putting on a $5K suit pretending to have never worked a day in his life? With all this information in this age how does this even happen? Jasmine Crocket has probably never been exposed to real racism against her for the color of her skin in her life. I can assure you that at the schools she attended there was no tolerance for that at all, and the hazy recounting of her experiences in college and the lack of any resolution are pretty indicative of the false flag bullshit going on at the time. Just like the Michael Brown or George Floyd rioting it was all based on a bald faced lie. A foundation of lies is a foundation of sand.

Thou shall not take the king's fish(bluefin)

The purse seiners down in Mexico wrapped so many in years past that the markets were giving them like $0.30/pound and using it for cat food. But the world is worried about the consumption of the fish and regulated the rod and reel anglers.

This is why the pens were made so they could feed and fatten the fish up for the other markets. It was an attempt to limit how much they were wrapping, but then they just made more and more pens so same result, they just make more money.

Emotional roller coaster: 6 powder droppers in < 3 years!

The only real problem (plenty of small annoyances) I've had with the AT v4 has been the main tube binding up.

I got one of the early pre-order units, and apparently there were some issues with the bearing surfaces - I think it was something with the low-friction tape on the one area - been a while, don't remember exactly. They replaced the part, and it worked fine thereafter. Except every once in a while, it acts up again. First time, I took it apart expecting to find the same thing. Nada. Wiped it down with alcohol and put it back together, no problem for about a year. Had to do it again periodically, but it's not a big deal - other than it invariably rears it's head when I'm loading for a match the next day 🙄

Bought a couple of weeks ago, hardly ridden. 2002 XR400R. Third one I own. Check out the forks, Emig triple clamps CRF250R forks. Bike is like me: a little heavy and kinda slow. 🤣🤣👍
Nice score. Not sure if they're still around, but A Loop used to make a seat/tank conversion to get modern ergos on these bikes.

Precision Rifle Gear Tango Innovations FIRE4000 WMLRF Initial Impressions

All the pricing I have seen has been $2000-$2150 for the civvy lrf. Granted without an official pricing from Magpul it's best guess at the moment. I imagine the current climate of things may have an impact as well. I wouldn't be surprised if it is $2500+ based on what it looks like on paper. But if it is closer to $2k, I don't know why you would go with the tango at $1800 assuming the Magpul performs.
My thought too. I really like the Tango unit, the lack of environmentals doesn't bother me in the slightest. But not at $1800. If the Magpul comes in closer to 2k, and includes the environmentals? It might be worth a much closer look.

Maggie’s Socially UNacceptable Humor

I managed to grab an off the record set of the proper sized pant with the XL top.
Took them to a laundromat and washed them over and over to remove the charcoal.

Found a skull cap strap set for my gas mask and spent an afternoon modifying my training filter for it too.
Do you know how hard it is to get that fucker back together without it looking like it was broken into?

Had the rain boots instead of those lace up fuckers.
Also an early adopter of the Kevlar helmet.

(I miss the days of ARRS (MAC) and SAC where we didn't play chem gear games. Becoming ACC ruined all of our pleasure of laughing at those who played silly reindeer games.)

When I PCS'd, that set went with me.
Gave it all away when I retired . Don't miss any of it. Ever.
😁
We specialized in reindeer games in the USMC.

Opinions on the F.A.S.T chassis

Nice! Is the white board grease pen compatible? Love the lid, my retired army snipe instructor had a patch that said "Its not the gun, you just suck" on his receiver. One of those things I'll take to the grave. Lol.
I got the thermometer to enter the powder temp into my calculator, not sure what percentage of hit % it improves, but a feel good thing I guess.
Ya the white can be used with grease pen or dry/ wet erase markers.
I don't write on it much, but I just use a regular sharpie and then rubbing alcohol to take it off

Sidearms & Scatterguns Getting into wheel-guns: S&W 986 or 627 PC / V Comp?

I’m lusting over a 629 competitor ever since I put hands on one a few weeks ago. That would make a sweet range toy. They do a 686 version as well. I’d check one out if you’ve got a shop that stocks them nearby.

Wheel guns are just fun to shoot. I picked up a 686-5+ 4” dirt cheap at a pawn shop at the beginning of the year and have been shooting the shit out of it and it’s sent me down a wheel gun rabbit hole. It’s one of my favorite guns to take to the range and it’s really nothing special.

Don’t forget to get a new Marlin 1894 to pair with it.
