re: 55gr vs. 68 gr
The barrel is 1 in 9. Now that I have the handloads tailored to the rifle, it really doesn't matter between the Sierra Blitz King/Nosler Ballistic tip in 55gr and the 69gr SMK/68gr Hornady BT match. They'll all shoot tighter than I can hold, but with a slight difference...
ROFL! Over 5 years later and my thread comes back from the dead.
The .223 Savage has become my favorite rifle....it is boringly consistent with just about any ammo I feed it. It also has an odd trait: it groups tighter as the barrel heats up. No worries about the 10 shot groups. <big...
Warning: Do not buy a Savage 10FP in .223.....because a little while later you'll end up with a Savage 10FP in .308 to go with it! :D :evil:
Best group to date from the .223 is .430" at 200 yards. The .308 has had less than 100 rounds put through it, but has turned in a best group of .394...
They seem to be catching up with themselves....as of 9:19pm they show total ballots at 121,980 with 112,788 votes cast on Prop H. Votes for the ban are still ahead 64,676 (57.34%) to 48,112 (42.66%) against.

My method will be similar to the one used by CGofMP.......the only question will be "shotgun or rifle?" I need a good caption for the second picture, though.
For the moment I'm quite happy that the pool of potential candidates is largely made up of kids she has met at the range.

If any of you fellow RAH fans haven't read Grumbles from the Grave yet, you should. The speech transcripts alone are fantastic, but it's also full of other tidbits.........like the fact that Hugh Farnam's bomb shelter was patterned after the one under Robert and Virginia's house in Colorado...
I'll be in Prescott on the weekend of the 16th and 17th, so that one is out for me. Unless y'all want to come shoot some trap with me.... :evil:
I'd love to get together for another AZ shoot on the 23rd, but I have to work that day........at the range. :rolleyes: The weekend of the 23rd...
From your map it appears that you will be taking Hwy 87 between I-8 and I-10. If you pass the Buckeye Hills Recreation area at mile marker 144 (about 2 miles north of the prison) during the daylight hours and would like to take a break, turn west onto the dirt road and follow the signs to the...
IMHO, maturity and the physical ability to hold the gun matter much more than chronological age. I started my daughter at 9 and my son at 6. I've got more thoughts on the matter here, here, and here along with many other places in my blog.
