    Alternate to Berger 140 hybrids (6.5)

    I'm in the same boat with my 300 win Mag. Loved Berger 230s but can't find them except a box here or there for way too much money. Had to move to Hornady A tips. Berger always gave me the best performance but if you can't buy them, it's irrelevant. We're 2 years into the craziness and if Berger...

    What AR bulk ammo (M193) and twist rate for SHTF gun?

    1:7 twist If money and availability isn't part of the equation, 77gr tipped match kings or regular SMK. Black hills is a good choice. But in a real SHTF scenario you take whatever you can find or afford.

    Pierce 10X vs CDX-40 for 375CT

    No experience with the 10x but agree with the above the the cadex shadow in 375 is excellent. I have no complaints either.

    Is body armor necessary for a civilian?

    I'm not worried about the coming shtf scenario but I keep a level 4 plate in my backpack that I bring my laptop, lunch, and a few tools to and from work every day. I don't expect to have an active shooter in my office but if it were to happen I would at least have one protective tool with me...

    Which AR to buy?

    Yes I own 2 of them. One is their 16" flyweight model. The other is their DMR 18". I haven't compared them to every other option people have mentioned here but I'm very happy with them and have no concerns or complaints.

    Supply Chain/Inflation & Ammo

    At some point inflation will go back down. At some point raw material availability will improve. At some point demand will decrease. If that happens and we have a Republican president who won't pass gun control, I think prices could still improve dramatically. That being said, if the dems keep...

    What idiot buys Green Bay Packers stock?

    I grew up and lived in Wisconsin for 20 years. The state lives and dies with the packers. They are one reason why I can't watch the nfl. It can be April or May and the main story on the local news is who they picked in the draft or what's happening in spring training. Major news isn't mentioned...

    Climate Change. Is this really about weather or is it the “climate we live in that needs to be changed”

    Any man made climate change taking place is the result of significant over population. Our planet is not capable of sustaining 7+ billion people. Cut the population in half and many of our problems (not just climate change) will go away. Nobody wants to talk about ways to eliminate 3 billion...

    Direct Impingement or Piston Drive?

    I have both LMT and barrett piston rifles and prefer them over DI. They run great even with minimal lubrication and will shoot any kind of cheap, dirty ammo with no issue.
