  1. If there has ever been a black on white crime prosecuted as a "hate crime", I am unaware of it.
  2. As far as I know, legally, you can.   There are lots of things you can legally do, but nonetheless are bad ideas. This would fall into that category. I can see a lot of bad coming from doing what you propose, but no good.
  3. From Wikipedia for what it's worth.   I loaded .224 for mine.   You'll find "Bee" bullets to be flat point  because Winchester once made a tube fed lever rifle in 218 Bee.   "Hornet" bullets will likely have a Spitzer or round nose profile, as there aren't any tube fed rifles chambered for the Hornet that I am aware of. Either will work in your loads.   Any .224 40-45 grain bullets should be suitable.
  4. Lake City surplus, Remington, or if you could find one of the Federal Value packs, these all seem to be very accurate in any of my rifles.   300 meters? I believe the OP mentioned 50 yards. I wouldn't doubt a heavier bullet shooting a tighter group at extended distances with the faster twist, but at 50 yards, he should be getting better than 4-5" groups with 55 grain ammo.
  5. I'm not David, and I'm not in North Carolina, so I guess I don't have to worry about picking up a new gun tomorrow.   I am interested to see what it is.
  6. Why the hell would you want to do anything just because Illinois does it?
  7. Assuming you were shooting from a rest, in my opinion, a 4-5 inch group is unacceptable. Might be o.k. were you firing from an offhand position.   I believe a 1 in 7 twist barrel should stabilize a 55 grain bullet at 223 speeds. I would try some different ammo before thinking about another barrel.   Is your sight securely mounted?   Have you fired this ammo with open sights?
  8. A Mauser chambered for a caliber one can find and afford is an awesome thing. Look for values to continue to rise steadily on them.
  9. I think Lorsartan, or something equivalent is what I take. No side effects, except for the first few months I peed every few minutes like I'd just guzzled a 12 pack. After a while, that returned to normal. I assume it somehow rids your body of retained fluids.   I would expect most blood pressure meds would need a few days to accumulate in your system before you'll be able to tell for sure how well they work for you.
  10. I don't have any friends, so all I would do on facebook is see what I was thinking. :ugh: Doesn't sound real interesting to me.
  11. She afraid it will cause an infection or something? :huh:
  12. I have the Midwest Industries Gen 2 handguard. It comes with the wrench you need to install it. I'm pleased with it. [URL=http://s612.photobucket.com/user/gregintenn/media/IMG_2396_zpse12c7f71.jpg.html][/URL]
  13. I hope it's a 28 gauge Red Label! :up:
  14. Gibson's Cafe in Lafayette   Harper's Restuarant in Scottsville, Ky.
  15. Assuming it's a quality holster, $60 is fair. Were you closer, I could make one for you, but I'd need your pistol.
  16. Surely Rocko shot them; heck, he came up with the idea!
  17. The point I was trying to make is "NOW is the time to BUY!"   Don't get caught with your pants down wen the next catastrophe hits. :up: :up:
  18. No, 32-20, 25-20, and 218 Bee are all the same family.
  19. I use them regularly, and the worst thing I can say about them is that they don't  always hold the bolt open when empty. Other than that, they work flawlessly, and are great for range use.
  20. I have some, and they work fine. Mine are marked "MasterMold North Carolina".
  21.                       http://www.gunpartscorp.com/ad/1163640.htm#1163650B 20 round Thermold for $5.95   Have you found any good deals?
  22.         https://www.primaryarms.com/DPMS_AR15_M16_Armorers_MultiTool_p/tl-mw.htm I've been happy with this one.
  23. I've thought one might be handy at the shooting bench.   I've loaded 22 Hornet, 32-20, and 218 Bee on a bench press. The thin brass never caused a problem.
  24. I hope you already have ammo for it. I'm glad I did!
  25. It should work as advertised, but if you have a Rockchucker press, I don't see why you don't just load the 22 Hornets on it.
