They tried that. - fail

I've never known them to have much on their shelves.

I'll do it for free. I live in Grove City and have every tool known to man for working on ARs. I work Monday and Tuesday night but can do it Wednesday for you. Let me know.

You'd honestly see way more damage with a highly frangable varmint round. But it'd still be fun.

I do a decent amount of it, though not as much as I would like. The best thing you can do is scout. But, since you already know they are in the area, that makes your life a bit easier. Wind direction is HUGE in coyote hunting as that's their best sense. Vision is their next best sense, followed by hearing. So, I like to sit with the wind at my back or with a bit of a crosswind. Coyotes will almost always try to circle around down-wind of the sound in an attempt to wind it first. Try to scout the area a bit to determine which direction you think they might come in from. Sit with your back to some cover if you can. Having the sun at your back is also a great thing to have, but this doesn't always work out. Pick wind direction over the suns direction. And sit still. Camo is nice, but they pick up on movement very easily even with camo on. I use a combo of a FoxPro Fury GX7 and a variety of hand calls. When I hunted them out west, I used hand calls. Back here in the easy, I used the FoxPro, because I'm lazy. I always keep at least one handball with me though in case electric fails (and it eventually will). Hand calls aren't difficult to learn. Anybody can blow on an open (and especially a closed reed) and sound like something that's dying. Howls are a bit trickier to get right, but still not too difficult. I learned by practicing in my car while driving wherever. You're alone, so you won't annoy anyone but yourself (and your eardrums) with the shrill screaming that's taking place. And don't give up. You will not call in a yote at every single stand. You probably won't even call one in for the majority of your hunts. But be persistent and they will eventually come. Let me know if you have anymore questions. Predator Masters Forum is a great resource.

Oh, I agree. But building a drilling rig using the collective power of all those computers would have been pretty impressive.

Kinda brilliant actually if they'd gotten away with it.

Oh, I agree it will happen. But I don't see it lasting. They'll get bitch slapped in court.

Won't happen.

I'm still not too concerned. I think it will move forward from the ATF, because the ATF is a bunch of unregulated fuckheads and that's what they do. The NRA and multiple other gun groups are chomping at the bit to put a legal smack down on them, and will do so. In the end, you'll see m855 restored to the shelves and possibly 7N6.

You're an engineer right? More torque = more muzzle flip. So, the higher you can choke up on the gun, the less torque it has on you. Those grips prevent getting a good high grip on the gun. No serious competition shooter runs them. That should tell you something. But, if you like it, use it.

Ah, the Hogue grip. Every new pistol owners first mod. It'll eventually find its way into the trash can if you shoot it enough. Nice gun, though. Always liked the USPs. (Just not as much as Glock...)

Fucking Russians.

Didn't know there was a national championship of shitting.

How does one open the rear doors?

Should have named her Buckeye. I know it seems more like a male name, but still, it's clearly full of win (as you know).

That's a broad question. What are you looking to do? volume? precision stuff? plinking? what's your budget?

Fan fucking tastic. Lol.

Judging by the amount of Ioban to his ABD, and the pelvic plating, I'd bet he was unconscious for most of it. Probably never even realized it.

It's the color of disappointment. In Humanity.

The plane does not take off.

Well, for starters, they're two completely different rounds; IMO not even really comparable. The .270 is essentially a necked-down 30-06, which is itself a pretty old cartridge, though still quite capable. A .308 is probably the second most popular centerfire rifle cartridge after .223/5.56; and for good reason - it's very versatile. There is a TON of bullet selection when it comes to 30 cals, yet not nearly as much for .270 (though still a good amount) - If you reload. You can run a .308 on a short action. A .270 requires a long action. Factory loaded match ammo is plentiful for the .308; I'm not sure any is even made for .270, though I could be wrong. The .270 is traditionally a hunting round (some old timers consider it and 30-06 as THE round for deer; I disagree...). In the end, if you're looking for a basic, entry level cartridge for punching holes in paper at moderate distances, the .308 is your huckleberry. If you want to kill something and make your grandpa happy, go with the .270. Personally (I hand load for everything), I'd go with something chambered in .243 (I'd have mine reamed to AI specs). You can't convince me that there is a more versatile round out there. You can run anything from ~50gr (for small critter blasting) to 80-90gr. (for medium critter blasting), all the way up to ~108gr. for blasting paper at nasty distances. Plus, it's a 6mm bullet. In case you weren't aware, the 6 and 6.5mm bullets are where it's at when it comes to the distance game. 30 cal could be one of my last choices. But that's me, and I like to do things a bit differently.

I'm talking about the core, not the jacket. The jacket usually makes up very little of the entire projectiles weight; 25% would be a significantly thick jacket, which is why it's mentioned. Btw, I think these gun folks trying to skirt the laws by building these "pistols" need slapped in their dicks as well. No more 7n6 thanks to them and now (potentially) no more m855. Quit fucking around with this shit because you're fucking it up for everyone else. If you want an SBR, then build an SBR. If you don't like the current laws surrounding NFA registration, then work in changing that.

M855 has a steel tip with a primarily lead core and thin copper jacket. I can't remember where I read it, but to be considered AP, 75% of the projectiles weight has to come from the AP components. Again, M855 does not meet this criteria.
