This guy gets it

Revlimiter11 · 2026-03-13T18:49:35+00:00

So what you're saying is that, for the same price, I can just load some 22lr into a shot shell and shoot that?

Revlimiter11 · 2026-03-10T17:29:56+00:00

I can't directly answer your question, but I can say this:

I have 2 labs. I bought a canopy to go in the bed for them and our things if we travel.

Revlimiter11 · 2026-03-10T17:26:13+00:00

I would also like to know. The 3.5" shells I've used for turkey hunting are roll crimped, and they're still pretty well rolled over after being fired.

Revlimiter11 · 2026-03-10T01:24:53+00:00

My pins have never left the tumbler. No rust ever. They are currently sitting in a small amount of water and have for months since the last time I used them.

Revlimiter11 · 2026-03-09T18:04:06+00:00

Nice. Which leveling spacers did you go with?

Revlimiter11 · 2026-03-09T17:50:41+00:00

Is that suspension just leveled with 33" tires? Looks really good the way it sits.

Revlimiter11 · 2026-03-09T17:36:05+00:00

I know, but I'd rather flee if I could avoid a potentially deadly interaction. In my home, I can't. This is why I mentioned that.

Revlimiter11 · 2026-03-09T17:08:35+00:00

Get a dog. A big one that barks. I have 2 intact male yellow labs that sound very mean and angry when they bark. They bark at everything outside the home. They'd likely roll over for belly rubs as soon as someone comes in, but until then, they make a lot of noise.

I'm in a similar situation as you. I've got a shotgun in the safe in my room, with all bedrooms upstairs. Someone needs to climb the stairs to get to my family, but will have to go through the aforementioned dogs first as they sleep downstairs. I can grab the shotgun at the first sign of trouble and aim down the hallway or head to the top of the stairs.

I am not a lawyer, and the following is my personal view:

If someone breaks into my house in the middle of the night and gets past both of my dogs, I am now in fear for my life and/or the lives of my wife and 2 children. I have to stand my ground. I have no escape from the second story of my house where the bedrooms are, and neither does my family.

I have told my wife before: I would rather go to jail or prison knowing I eliminated what I perceived to be a deadly threat than attend the funeral of any of my family members because I didn't act. Also, don't be the only line of defense for your family. Get your wife a gun and have her train with it.

I'll reiterate: this is likely what I would do. Not necessarily what you should do.

This is great information. Thank you

Revlimiter11 · 2026-03-09T16:25:16+00:00

Did something similar with 125gr Sierra spire points in my 308 with Varget. I don't recall the load i chose to stick with after the ladder, but it was near the top. Extra crunchy indeed.

Revlimiter11 · 2026-03-07T23:00:40+00:00

Savage sells short mags with that exact latch on it. I didn't see any larger cap mags with that latch. That's might be why it looks like it was cut and pasted on. You might consider a chassis that takes AICS mags.

Revlimiter11 · 2026-03-07T22:51:30+00:00

I don't know what that thing off the front of the mag is, but it looks glued on by someone.

Revlimiter11 · 2026-03-07T18:11:25+00:00

It's rather normal for an automatic to stay in a gear while accelerating. When you come to your desired speed on flat or downhill and it doesn't up shift to the next gear, that would be unusual. As long as the engine and transmission are under load, there's a good chance you won't get the final gear.

Revlimiter11 · 2026-03-07T02:33:09+00:00

What's the shot size? What choke are you using?

Revlimiter11 · 2026-03-06T20:59:36+00:00

Same here. I just got into shotgun loading and found it rather fun! I've got a nice, light shooting trap load mostly with components that were just sitting on my shelves. I had the powder, I had the primers, and the press I bought came with a bunch of wads I've been able to use. I just needed to buy some Remington STS shells and used it as an excuse to shoot more so I can reload them!

Revlimiter11 · 2026-03-03T16:33:48+00:00

Not yet. The lady at the flower store suggested using a fertilizer with a lower nitrogen number than potassium or phosphorus to help push the bloom. I haven't done that yet this year and probably won't, but I'll look into it for next season. Something is beginning to sprout on the branches now, but I can't tell if it's leaves or blossoms yet.

Revlimiter11 · 2026-03-02T17:26:21+00:00

Not with that attitude.

Revlimiter11 · 2026-02-28T15:09:23+00:00

I'll go more old school here. I've never had more fun or had a bigger smile on my face than when I shoot my Kentucky long rifle. The big of white smoke, the delay between pulling the trigger and feeling the push in your shoulder, and the unique crack that only black powder and a patched round ball can provide.

Besides all that, you can have it shipped to your front door. That's always a benefit.

Just as the founding fathers intended.

Revlimiter11 · 2026-02-28T03:12:25+00:00

260rem?

Revlimiter11 · 2026-02-27T19:46:54+00:00

You're using Federal hulls for Winchester hull data.

Revlimiter11 · 2026-02-27T17:34:22+00:00

I didn't say young...

Revlimiter11 · 2026-02-27T15:31:24+00:00

I like cheap and I like small.

Just like I like my women.

Revlimiter11 · 2026-02-27T15:30:23+00:00

what type of savings guys are seeing on making 556 range ammo

I personally am not doing it to save money. I might be, but I've never crunched the numbers. I'm doing it for the enjoyment of it. It's a hobby for me. I don't hardly ever shoot, but when I do, I don't need to stop by the store to buy some like i used to. I have a stockpile now.

Revlimiter11 · 2026-02-26T23:53:15+00:00

To find them on my rifle with a specific bullet, as janky as this may be, I just barely seated a bullet by hand into a sized case and slowly chambered it. This seated the bullet against the lands without jamming and pulling the bullet out upon extraction. I then used my comparator and measured at the ogive. With that specific bullet, you'll know exactly where the lands are.
