    affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations?

    Re: affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations? Yeah, I also recently noticed that the reloading equipment is pretty expensive!

    affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations?

    Re: affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations? If I really get into this, I'm sure I'll get into reloading, because ammo is damn expensive! Any recommended websites & types of ammo to get me started would be appreciated!

    affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations?

    Re: affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations? That all sounds like great advice, but the more I think about it, the more I realize I might not have time to get into this as a full-time hobby. Since I don't have a whole lot of time on my hands, I don't think I'll ever be the kind of guy...

    affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations?

    Re: affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations? for a suppressor, how about a Titanium Shadow XL TI .30, 9.3" long?

    affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations?

    Re: affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations? I haven't posted in here in quite some time, but it was because I was saving up money, not because I lost interest! I know quite a few of you approve of the AR-10 SASS. What do you think of this...

    affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations?

    Re: affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations? And yeah, the M14 EBR was another one I was considering, but based on what I read online, it seemed like it was very similar to the M39 EMR, but harder to find.

    affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations?

    Re: affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations? I've read that M39 EMRs are about $4000. Is that with the optics included? If so, I may be able to swing that kind of cost in a few months. If not, I would probably go with something a little cheaper.

    Re: affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations? That looks pretty nice. What did that run you, optics and everything included?

    affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations?

    Re: affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations? This all seems a lot more complicated than I expected... haha I didn't realize that rifles had so many customizable options. I have a lot to think about and research.

    affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations?

    Re: affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations? Do you guys gather the ammo after you shoot even when you go to a shooting range? I imagine that it would be rather inconvenient, unless you waited until the end of your entire session and grabbed as much as you can during a cease fire.

    affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations?

    Re: affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations? Do you mean don't get ahead of my game in terms of what gun I purchase? Or more in terms of my own skills? Edit: Or I suppose I could get a nice gun now, and then wait until I have more experience to upgrade the parts of it. Is that what...

    affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations?

    Re: affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations? Yeah, I love the SVD, but I've heard from several friends that ammo is hard to come by in America. But I suppose that in the age of the internet, it's not that hard to come by things like that. I just might not be able to find it in local...

    affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations?

    Re: affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations? I'm very new to shooting. I've only shot 22's. Admittedly, this is a lot of money for somebody with such little experience to spending, but I'm pretty sure that if I buy the right gun, I'll enjoy it enough to stick with it. Even though my...

    affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations?

    Re: affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations? What percentage of ammo would you estimate is reloadable? Don't the shells and bullets often get so damaged that it makes reloading them impossible?

    affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations?

    Re: affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations? Thanks for the suggestions. Out of curiosity, why are optics a one time purchase? Are you just saying that the smart thing to do is buy really good optics the first time so you never have to buy them again?

    affordable accurate semi-auto recommendations?

    Hi, I'm new here (obviously), but I'm looking to get into the sport. The problem is, I don't know a whole lot about guns yet. I've looked around a bit, and talked to a few people, but I was wondering if anybody here has any recommendations. Here are a few of the features I would want my...
