    Alliant AR-Comp...anyone use it for .223/5.56?

    I've used a few pounds of it and my rifle loves it. 70 grain Bergers in particular. However, 55 grain pills don't like it with my barrel Sent from my SGH-T889 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2

    That's fine. It's still cheaper than local. And I just picked midway as an example. You just feel free to over pay for stuff. I'm not going to do it.

    You do get that the lgs charges an extra 3% over everyone else if the charges are included into the price? Here's an example: barrel #1 @ midway= $300. Same barrel @ lgs =300+3%. That is crap.

    It's when I can buy something online and the exact same item is at my lgs is the same price (usually more) but if I pay with my card it costs me an 3%. That is what pisses me off.

    It's called the cost of doing business. What's next? I gotta pay a quarter to turn the lights on to see the product? Or pay per sheet for toilet paper I might use? I'm not buying it, which is why I shop online and don't pay an extra 3%.

    Oh, I get that they cost money to use. Hence the reason I don't accept American Express. Their fees are too salty. But come on, selling guns and ammo is ludicrous business, at least in my area. That extra bit is just crap.

    I think it's total bs that some gun shops charge extra to use a card. No other business I have ever seen does that. If they can't make it without charging the 2-3%, then they need to take another look at their business plan.

    Gunsmithing Victor lathes?

    Yeah, x10000000 on a Hardinge. I've spent a lot of time with one and I don't think you can get a finer machine for precision work.
