Let alone at 30 yards, unless you are some sort of pistol sniper.......Quote:

Thanks otter. Glad to be here. Not an AR owner yet but I'm working on it with mutt. He had given me since great direction and I think I have it narrowed down. I just gotta get the accessories and ammo lined up for myself then get it all ordered. Hoping to be fully decked out within three months.
Gonna make a midnight run to King Stupids.....brats and dogs and burglers are the theme for the week.
Bacon wrapped corn on the cob? Never seen it done, looks awesome.
Bad day to be a skunk or a pidgeon... ;) .....then again, when would it be a good day to be a skunk or a pidgeon?
Got the plugs changed in the boat today, had to make a run to the parts store when I realized I didn't have much dielectric grease and saw all the plug boots bone dry. That doesn't give me the warm fuzzies on the past maintenance done on this thing.
CRC sells dielectric grease in a cheese whiz can now, coolest thing ever.
Also got the damn jetski back together after a failed attempt to remove the leaky oil tank. Needed a special factory wrench to remove ONE BOLT on the exhaust that had to come out first and said F that. What a bitch to reconnect those rubber straps when there's no room to work inside the hull. Had to use big zip ties to pull them together.
Washed them again, wiped them down. A little fluff and buff in case someone wants to actually come look at them instead of just try to beat me up on the pricing.

Did a little more cleaning on the boat. Then the kids and baby showed up and we grilled. Tomorrow, de-winterizing the RV and getting ready for the first lake trip.

Heya, Blaze....no worries. Owning an AR is not a prerequisite in order to be a ho-bag.
You get the neighbors carpet trimmed?[Coffee]Quote:

Nice work, Brutal. You stud.
Yeah, I trimmed up the carpet in the front at least.
No worries, Lobo. I know we'll get on that improvement when your schedule allows. Thanks, Man.
I'm doing good....no complaining allowed, right?
I know right? Changing plugs is so hard.Quote:

I could certainly screw up a plug change. Also, I had 20,000 posts before I owned an AR. Still haven't shot it yet either.
Heya Irving....what it be?
Midnight shopping is cooler when there's a checker running a station. The self check out deal is kind of a pain in the ass if you have more than 3 bags.
Good morning, hose bags.
:D
You're suppose to put the bags down , Before scanning items.Quote:

There's a whole reloading section within this forum. Lots of good info there, too.
Had to take a quick break to grab some cheaters from the office.
Busy day with the RV and stuff. Tire covers off, aired up, greased, water caps installed, water heater flushed again and anode installed, fixed one leaky connection in the galley, aired up boat trailer tires, truck tires, truck airbags, spare tires, yada yada.
Need to get some bleach for the fresh water holding tank.
Now going to take a crack at fixing a gelcoat gouge from a shitty docking last trip last year. Damn low on black gelcoat patch through so white for filler, then top it off later with black. I should have checked the stash over the winter damnit.
Would like to get the truck tires rotated but my jack is on the fritz and it's a damn chore with the 3/4T. POS craftsman 6T(?) jack that never did work right. Just like my POS Craftsman torque wrench. WTF is it with plastic (locking) rings on tools anyway?
Maybe I'll just worry about getting the oil/filter in the truck changed.
YA there is lol I've read several threads already and intrigued. I guess I should be more specific then. Any 5.56/.223 reloaders on the western slope in or near grand junction I can contact and even learn from. From the looks of most threads like ones from zombie Steve and the kazoo they say watching another reloader and learning from them is the best route to go... In their words "monkey see, monkey do." I want to meet somebody and discuss and learn to reload.
Do you reload pistol now?
Start off by getting "The A-B-C's of reloading.
Then pick up a single stage reloading press and dies for pistol calibers, they are a bit more forgiving than the rifle calibers.
*Attention to details is the key to reloading.*
Once you are comfortable with reloading and shooting your own Pistol calibers, Move up to rifle calibers. Remember, that the 5.56/.223 is intolerant of overlength cases ( as all rifle calibers )and trimming them is critical.
I would invite ya over, but it's kind of a long drive... [Neene3]Quote:
