  1. This is a course I'm NOT interested in.                       https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rI01qKAqYts&feature=youtu.be                          
  2. Believe it or not, yes. I do not recall anything special about a break in period. I guess I should have read it closer. The last one was a 2011 Honda Accord. It's at 50,000 miles now. I've done nothing but scheduled maintenance to it, and it's been problem free thus far.
  3. Mine is a Savage 99 R in 300 Savage. I like 99 Savages.
  4. No car or gun I've owned required a break in period.
  5. Full choke. High brass #6 shot. Just like it doesn't take an elephant gun to kill a whitetail, there's no magic in taking down a bird.   A lot of guys sitting around a gun store are simply full of feces when it comes to tales of their shooting prowess.
  6. You'd think this was on the horizon based on current as well as recent events, but I've heard little mention of new companies, or existing companies expanding. There is definitely money to be made in the ammunition industry.
  7. It DOES burn the eyes. That isn't second hand knowledge.
  8. I expect that'll be a long line.
  9. I consider a quarter a pop a fair price for 7.62x39. Anything cheaper than that needs to be bought.
  10.                                       http://ammunitionstore.com/categories/rifle-ammunition/7-62x39.html $219.99 per k here, with a free AK magazine.
  11. I have several things sitting around that aren't running because of ethanol.   Not only are we screwing up small engines everywhere, we are also raising the cost of a necessary food staple for many third world countries.
  12. Whoever got the ball rolling to mandate ethanol to be added to gasoline should be drowned in the stuff.
  13. I'm a "both" kind of guy.
  14. ...and I'll stick with guns that don't come with plastic parts.
  15. Stick your chamfer tool in there and give it a twist.
  16.              http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hu2YzYG0b98   I always like the Crocodile Dundee movies. I think this would have been funny.
  17. What the h3ll comes with a plastic guide rod?
  18. You've never chased a cigarette butt around a urinal? Really?
  19. I'm 15 for 20 as far as I can tell.
  20. Is it more or less foolish to buy a $70 brick there, or to spend $50 in gas going from Wal Mart to Wal Mart trying to find a $20 brick in stock? Some people have more money than others. Some have more time than others. Some must have more patience than others.   I'm glad there are different types of businesses set up to cater to different types of customers.
  21. ...and they're $229 again today. Oh well, mine showed up today. I don't know where the magazine was manufactured, but it appears new, and looks like a standard steel AK mag.
  22. I'll all in favor of a meteor screaming toward Earth, only to find her standing in it's landing zone.
  23. I'm happy with it. I don't really see much way to improve upon it. It beats the crud out of a quadrail in my opinion. [URL=http://s612.photobucket.com/user/gregintenn/media/IMG_2397_zps33a43470.jpg.html][/URL] I believe mine is a 15" model as well.
  24. I built one of the guns, the other is a stock Bushmaster. They are both 100% reliable with any handload I've fed them, as well as the Federal Valuepack stuff. Not so with the Wolf steel case ammo. I get the same results with both guns. Maybe I got some bad Wolf ammo? Like I said, accuracy is fine with it; just not reliability.   Wolf works great in my Mini 14. I also shoot a LOT of it in an AK and SKS (different caliber of course), and it's satisfactory in every way in 7.62x39.   I've tried Hornady Steel Match in my Bushmaster, and it cycles reliably. So it isn't as simple as just a steel case problem. Heck, I dunno.   It isn't a big deal as I don't have a big bunch of the stuff in 223, and will simply shoot what I have in my Mini. I just found it odd since I've always had good luck with Wolf ammo in general.
  25. Macon county.
