If a ban gets through, and I'm not saying it even will, we still have no idea what will be banned. For all we know, nothing will be grandfathered in. How many of you who are racking up thousands of credit card debt are going to take all of your new lowers/rifles/30rd. mags/shoulderthingthatgoesup to your local PD for disposal? Calm down people. Instead of spending money on all this shit, donate a bit to the NRA so they have the funds to fight the coming legislature.

The 2A isn't about CCW or hunting. AT ALL. It's the big brother to the 1A. If little brother gets picked on, big brother steps in to kick the ass of whoever is messing with the little guy. It's the American citizen's contingency plan. 1A = You can run your mouth to your .gov to get what you want. If they try to take that right away from you, you move onto step 2. 2A = You shoot your .gov in the face. In order for this to be effective, the American citizens should obviously be as well armed as the .gov. It's hard to fight back a government that can straight mow you over if all you have is a single low cap handgun. Why is this so hard to understand for people? I hear people say, "This is the US, it'll never happen!" Do you all really trust your politicians in the least? Almost every American agrees that you can't trust them with your money, so why would should we trust them to do what's right when we have absolutely no way to defend ourselves? Take a look at history. This shit happens all the time. It's exactly what happened when this country came into existence, hence, why it is #2 (!) on the list of important shit we have a right to in this country. #2!!!!! out of 27, it's #2. :no:

If I hear, "It's time for 'meaningful' talks" one more god damn time... Seriously? What exactly is a 'meaningful' talk? Are those the things I have with anti-gun people where I blow holes in every-single-one of their counterpoints until they get so frustrated that they resort to name calling and insults before they get up from the table and stomp away kicking and screaming? Those kind of meaningful talks? I'm all for some more of those.

There is really not much to say as this man has pretty much said it all. The heavier rounds do serve a purpose. I keep some 77gr SMKs and 75gr. A-maxs around for this reason. I don't shoot them very much, but I have on occasion. It just depends on the situation. I have yet to purchase a .223 bolt gun, but when I do, I assure you these heavier pills will be what I use, almost exclusively.

Generally, the rule of thumb is: The heavier (actually, the longer) the round, the faster twist barrel you will need to adequately stabilize it, which leads to increased accuracy. That isn't to say a slightly slower twist will not work for you. In fact, it would probably work just fine and you likely would not notice the difference, especially in a carbine. If you're shooting for groups in a bolt gun, you would likely notice. The opposite is also true for lighter rounds. Generally, the lighter the round, the slower twist you need. The reason for this is that lighter rounds can actually spin themselves apart if spun too fast. Ask me how I know... :dumb: Cliff: You could shoot 75 or 77gr. match ammo out of your 1:8 and be just fine. The gun won't implode or anything.

When I'm not posting from my phone, I will.

The number of politicians who don't know the meaning behind the 2A drives me nuts. Hunting? Seriously?

You people worry too much. Congress has to focus on this fiscal cliff shit first. By the time they sort that out, the country's emotional impulses will have simmered down a bit. This also isn't 1994 where Congress can sneak something through without us knowing. These days, we know what they're doing before they even do. Oh, and regardless of all of this, they ALL want re-elected. They can talk a big game, but in the end, nothing will come of it. Calm your boners.

Not sure of the situation, but that appears to be taking it a bit too far. I've never understood why these dumbass truck owners insist on hooking chains. It's got to be brutal for both trucks.

With what?

Let's not forget to note those horrendous aftermarket black projector headlights.

And it still looks like your typical farm kid's retarded-out ricer diesel.

A family member also mentioned that he had some form of autism. Color me surprised. The true problem is the lack of mental health resources in this country. Granted, you can't catch them all, but you can't ignore them all either. There is some serious underfunding for mental health. Unfortunately, there is a serious underfunding for everything.

How about some pole barn insulation panels?
