Took the little one out to shoot her new "AR" S&W MP15-22. Ran great.

She asked me just after this to lower the flip up sights, which I did and she did much better with it.

Very nice Sean!

A couple of friends and I went out to a range near a 3 day party/ranch camp we were at. One guy wanted to use his new Savage .300 Win Mag. He wasn't having much luck with the plate that was 300 yards away. Call it beginner luck but I was getting 2 out of every 3 when he struggled to even get one. I felt kinda bad. ... not bad enough though as I reminded him all weekend that that gun caused a distinct ringing in my ear. The sound sounded something like this: "Ping! ... Ping! ...Ping!" lol

Well my buddy found a good deal on 458 SOCOM barrel so it looks like we will be building a few uppers soon. Now to start working on acquiring the reloading dies and components. It will make good bear medicine for when I get around to getting to CO.

So the 458 SOCOM is waiting on a muzzle device and then it will be 100% ready to knock holes in walls, pigs, and VWs. So I started looking around at reloading options and this bullet made me smile. I have to open something up with this.

I know exactly where you can test them out at. Maybe Aaron can get his big bore AR built fairly soon as well to test it out.

I am looking for a 300 grain wad cutter fishing weight mold. That would be close to perfect for cheapness and destruction of fish.

Mold or right priced lead boolets.

FIFY

Naa I have enough registered items in my house and a handful of flags in my background that I will never get off the government lists. Might as well embrace it.

To whatever NSA agent is reading this - tell your mom I said hi. I like her choice in juice packs.

It has been submitted. It has a long way to go.

If conservatives do not obtain the WH in 2020, expect much stricter laws, which would make the previous Brady Bill look extremely weak compared to new possible legislation in the forecast.

We are currently in the time of plenty for gun parts and ammo. If you aren't stocking up right now you are foolish. $39 lowers, 25c/round for brass 223, etc. Come 2020 that's gonna change just like it did in 2015

Finally found ammo local so I can test the upper before making a bulk ammo order. It sucks Buffalo Bore 458 SOCOM was $62 for 20 rounds. Damn pigs better appreciate it.
