    Maggie’s Hazmat rant...

    Re: Hazmat rant... Hazmat regs never made sense to me. When I had an explosive driver cert in the military, there was a lot of stuff that didnt make sense. Take the restrictions on transporting ammo and explosives together. If I only had one truck and needed to transport a sealed case of hand...

    Re: Rifle barrel length question? Is cutting the barrel as simple as taking it to a gunsmith and having them cut/crown the existing one? I currently have a 24in barrel, but have really been thinking about an 18in one, especially since I started tracking LL and the progress with his. I just...

    Rifle Scopes Update on Bushnell FFP mildot spotters

    Re: Update on Bushnell FFP mildot spotters Heck, this actually works in my favor. My wife was without a job for 2 months and just barely started working again. If the scopes had delivered on time, I would have had to back out. Now, I should have my fun funds built back up just in time to get...

    Rifle Scopes Optic for Afghan

    Re: Optic for Afghan Danel, I wasn't trying to correct you, we just were posting at the same time about the same thing. I have tried the different types of ear plugs out there, but my ear canals seem to be abnormal, I can't get them to stay in as I move around. My last deployment we were...

    Rifle Scopes Focal Planes: is the FFP worth it for mil dot?

    Re: Focal Planes: is the FFP worth it for mil dot? I for one cannot really see the downfall of a FFP. Sure, at lower magnifications the reticle is smaller. Well, at lower magnifications, my target is usually bigger. If I need to fine tune aim with the reticle...just dial up the magnification...

    Bartlein barrels

    Re: Bartlein barrels I was going to do the same thing that you are thinking of doing and having a smith customize my Rem 700PSS. Then I sat down and did the math. It was actually only a few hundred dollars more for me to sell the rifle and have one built from the ground up! Even if you wanted...
