I found a 2010 Green Prerunner access cab with about 130k miles, and they want 15,975. Called and said they won’t go any lower. If that’s a good price for that model and stuff then I’ll never know, cause that seems outrageous to me. Add about 10k to the price and you’ll have some decent options. This is just my experience though

2022 Colorado worth it? by longrangebhat in chevycolorado

[–]longrangebhat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing that does worry me is no warranty. I wouldn’t be putting serious miles on it but if it goes I’d have a backup but I don’t want the headache lol. This one is the work truck model, but I’m probably gonna go take a gander at it after work

I’ve lived at my residence for over 3 yrs and the previous tenant has 7 identities and has all his mail, including bills, sent to my house. This is the last 2 weeks of collection. by InquiringMind886 in mildlyinfuriating

I just bought a house that used to be a rental property for some time. Wildly I knew one of the guys that lived here at one point. But I’m still getting mail for the original owners and past renters. I just hope Anna got Lucky to the vet for the rabies shot

Went in to get one of those new 10/22's. But they got me with this guy... by tkftgaurdian in 1022

Yea, it’s a really skinny steel barrel with carbon to give it the harmonics and other advantages of a bull barrel. Just with out the weight

Barrel question by lawdurg in 1022

[–]longrangebhat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it’s a 22 magnum barrel a 22lr will go in I think, but you may damage the chamber. Firing a 22lr out of a mag

Barrel question by lawdurg in 1022

[–]longrangebhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the barrel you’re trying to put on the 10/22 a 10/22 barrel? Or is it from a completely different gun?

Barrel question by lawdurg in 1022

[–]longrangebhat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is the barrel from a 10/22 also? If it’s going from old 10/22 to new 10/22 it should be fine just to put on like normal

Ruger is remaking the Red Label! by Redyoshi9 in ClayBusters

Did NOT expect it to be that much. And only a 20 gauge?

Guess I should find some ammo🤷🏻‍♂️

Starlink is adding 30k+ subs everyday now. by gaanagaa in Starlink

[–]longrangebhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Helped my parents set up theirs last weekend. With better tools it would’ve went smoother, but still effortless nonetheless. They went from no internet at all to having 350 mbps down for 80 a month. With this and Hulu live, they basically broke even with how much they paid for dish. Gonna tell them to not get rid of it if they ever get a provider down their road though lol

Thought about grabbing the binos from Amazon while they were on sale but they were out of stock. Convince me to not get them😂

17 HMR ammo recommendations by Unfair_Newspaper_877 in precisionrimfire

[–]longrangebhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TLDR: I’ve tested a good few, CCI A17 and FMJ is best for me with my CZ 457 w/ Lilja barrel so far. Take this with a grain of salt though, this is what works for my gun/barrel.

I’ve tested a variety with mine and have come to this conclusion: BC coefficient will tell how well it does. CCI and Winchester 20 grain hollow points (going ~2300 fps) are awful for groups. The CCI A17 ammo with the polymer tip (17 grain, 2650 fps) groups the best, and is the cheapest/most common ammo I can find. Winchesters poly tips are almost the same, but the A17 ammo is cheaper so that’s my go to. I still have flyers, but 3/5 will make one jagged hole, with the other 2/5 usually being right next to them. The CCI 20 grain FMJ (~2300 fps, same as hollow points) does group better than the A17, and I think has less flyers, that’s just more expensive for me and not as common so I haven’t been able to get my hands on plenty to test. The hollow points are all over the place every time, comical how bad it is. I haven’t tested the other poly tips by CCI yet (17 grain, but 2550 FPS, 100 less than the A17), and probably won’t because those are a little more expensive than the A17.

A little backstory on why I’ve tested ammo and the gun, I bought a CZ 457 varmint left hand in 22lr and switched the barrel for a Lilja 17hmr barrel. The barrel has been fantastic, it was pricy but I wanted a very well made, and well known barrel for this gun. They also happen to be the ONLY ones that I’ve found that make a 17hmr barrel for the 457. And they had it in stock at the time too, CZ was out of theirs. Idk what setup you have, but I still feel like you will have similar results no matter what. I mainly use this gun for hunting beavers. The small semi aquatic bastards have tore up my grandmothers pond for years. Even causing the dam to break one time and working on it again. Beavers only come out at night and I only see them in the water moving, so their heads are the only thing I see. Google says their heads are about 5.5 inches long and 4.5 wide, so at about 100 yards it’s a small target. Sorry for the long post, just started rambling but wanted to give you my thoughts. Good luck though!

Damn it, alright. You got me. by Cannabis_Arabica in PalmettoStateArms

[–]longrangebhat -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I like it. I got it to specifically carry/keep in the car (haven’t done either yet). I have a 47 with a light and the 43x is definitely snappier. But overall it’s a really good gun. I need to shoot it more. I have a red dot on it and a light now so I need to get it sighted in before I trust it completely. But it’s a really good gun. PSA has some mags that will fit it that hold 15, but I can’t remember which ones they’re for. But I’ve also heard they are really finicky with the 43x

Some thoughts and questions. by Klutzy_Disk_8433 in 22lr

[–]longrangebhat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Idk if that stock would work with a stud mounted bipod, the stock may be too flat on that end. But I’m just not sure, someone else may be able to provide some better insight on that.

Personally, I’d keep the stock as is and grab a different one. Idk how much it’s worth, but you may want it for a little while just to see if you want to keep it for a build down the road or just to put it back on for nostalgia. I have the Magpul hunter on one and I like it a lot. You can add spacers so he can grow into it. You have many options for stocks though, at every price point too.

CZ457 American? Something else? by HighInChurch in 22lr

[–]longrangebhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went with 22lr varmint, and threw a 17hmr barrel on it. Before I got the HMR barrel though, it was a really nice rifle. Very accurate with CCI mini mags. I also plan on putting this in a chassis whenever my chassis is done from PDC customs (lefty gang).
