Two more days and I'm off..... wish me luck

There are a lot of great solutions here. Than you everyone for contributing. The longest anything sits is the long range guns that only come out once or twice a year (So Far). Even the not so fired pistols see the range every 3 months or so. I was more worried about shooting something on monday...

When I shop at the local WAL-Mart for ammo they have to ask if your 22lr is for a pistol or a rifle if its for a rifle you have to be 18, 21 for the pistol. Really its nothing more than a honor system but its to comply with state laws saying you have to be 21 to purchase pistol ammo.

I went through this a few months ago. I went with the DSA fluted 16" mid length upper 300.00 (mil discount even if you out) Young Manufacturing BGC Palmetto arms Mil spec lower and MOE build kit. All together it was about 700.00 I have a 1/2 MOA gun that runs like a champ. After the...

Just seen that, but if I switch from CCI to WSP wont I have to rework my loads?

yeah, sportsmans put up a notice that there was gonna be a increase in loading supply cots a few moths ago they were cheaper before.

Just curious if anybody knows why we pay hazmat fees for primers and powder but not on loaded ammo?? :uhoh:
