  1. try a camp filter like the nice hand operated ones you can find at a camping gear store like dick's or try an army surplus. they last a long long time can be backflushed and even make drinkable water from sewage
  2. Also, chronic pain doesn't necessarily stop people from doing things they need to do. This is true because I did 2 girls at the same time while my leg was in a cast from the hip to the ankle
  3. Sounds nice. What weight bullet are you using? What do you mean by a "tapered bore"? in .308win I use 150grain nosler ballistic tips in .270win I use 130grain nosler ballistic tips in 5.56mm I use 55grain combined technology ballistic tips(varmints) A tapered bore is the end product of firelapping the bore is slightly larger at the throat than it is at the muzzle therefore squeezing the propellant gases ever more until it exits the barrel the other adavantage of fire lapping is it removes all those ugly imperfections and machine tool marks left over from rifling Great question! and I hope that answer helped
  4. IF THEY DID WHO WOULD PAY KICKBACKS AND OR BRIBES?
  5. I got maximus 87% followed by spiderman in a close second....which doesn't mean shit actually
  6. Kill them and donate the meat to a program similar to what we have here in illinois...Hunters for the hungry its a program that delivers the much needed protein to those who are less fortunate...even the poor or disabled deserve fresh meat!
  7. a woofo asked him "how will you land if both of your parachutes fail?....his reply?....SUDDENLY! I hum it 'cause I can : (Henry3:16)
  8. Hi Bill IMO the reason some of the media ("Liberal")are so "negative" is because they were in NO for the four days after the hurrican hit and witnessed the Human suffering and the deteriating conditions first hand and FEMA reporting to the outside world Help is on the way!. These reporters had witnessed disasters all around the world so they thought they knew what to expect. The disconnect between FEMA and NO was a major FUBAR. I'm a human being and am horrifed what we saw via the wonders of T.V. When the final death toll comes in we'll see if the "liberal" media had a reason to be "so negative". The death toll from the Tsunami couldn't be prevent due to the lack of advance warning imo a large number of the death's in NO could have been prevented if FEMA had their act together. History will be the judge of what happen in NO back in 2005. We'll see if the "Liberal" media enters into the equation R.I.P. OH and I guess Shepherd Smith of FOX NEWS is a liberal?.....the fucking guy deserves your respect as he was the 1st guy to call attention to the plight of those who weren't evacuated by the city of NO and also why did the mayor himself leave and make NO effort whatsoever to evacuate his "chocolate" people? I guess he was too busy ordering the disarming of legal gun owners because they were going to commit crimes? My own relatives were nearly carjacked the night before as they left...boy I guess they deserved that since they are all older ladies in their 50s and 60s and had the audacity to drive a caddilac escalade good thing their father a former NO fireman insisted they all carry hanguns since they were kids (18) they actually had to fire 4 rounds out the window into the air because nobody was going to back away from their vehicle as the blocked the interesection and started trying to get the luggage off the roof and tried to gain entry....not asking for a ride mind you...
  9. The problem with having sisters is this: they have a fight with hubby, pick up the phone he asks who you calling? she says my brother xxxxx he grabs his shit and leaves so fast his all you would hear is squealing tires...and nothing really happened except she was being bitchy!....grrrrrr
  10. DAMN I WISH I COULD SKYDIVE AS WELL AS I CAN SHOOT! I hum it 'cause I can (Henry 3:16)
  11. I really agree with this. I see all kinds of hunter who go afield each year with a large magnum that they can't shoot well. The ballistics for some of these look wonderful, but it's really hard to concentrate on proper shot placement if you have a rifle that kicks like a mule and sounds like a cannon. There are some experienced marksmen who can shoot one well, but even they may start to flinch after firing too many rounds. I have a 300 Win. Mag. that I really like, but I usually grab my old 270 when hunting season opens. It's lighter, has a shorter barrel, less recoil, less noise, is almost as flat shooting at longer ranges, and above all I have more confidence in it. But then again, when there's that big bull elk standing out there at 400 yards, I'd rather have the 300. It just has a lot more nock down power. There is an advantage to having a heavier, larger diameter bullet when dealing with bigger critters. But as you mentioned one of the greatest elephant hunters ever used a little 7mm to get the job done. He probably just got a little closer than needed and didn't pull the trigger until everything felt just right....(leaving little to chance in terms of having a wounded animal)...Steve1 IT still shocks me that guys especially in the south use any magnum catridge at all on those deer they arent all that large to begin with...If and I mean IF you cant kill any whitetail in north america with nothing more than a .308 or .270 win its useless. a nice cartridge for the recoil intimidated is a nice .260rem or 6.5mm swedish .270win is nice and also has low recoil also a nice thing for less experienced or recoil intimidated people is a nice semi auto if you can keep them from banging away like its a drive by shooting....recoil pads help too...limbsaver makes a very nice one for cheap...also try a lighted reticle scope they are great for beginners and for experienced shooters they are great at dusk and dawn
  12. info on the rifle used FN/FAL firing nosler ballistic tips IMR4896 @2800fps Frankenstein gun so I didn't mind painting it camo trigger job, fire lapped barrel, tapered bore moly coated , 2.5-10x-42mm scope mildots
  13. Dayum - nice shot! So how much lead did you hold for that shot? Curious: how do you know the yardage so precisely? Paced it off and I am a surveyor... plus confirmed by a leica laser rangefinder I won $5.00 lead it by 1.5 body lengths that mother was hauling ass! lots to calculate incuding reaction time it is a subconscious thing and you need to "feel the shot" trust instinct thinking takes too much time plus i shot 3 times... 1st shot another guy a long way away shot just as i squeezed the trigger the buck bounded i saw my bullet hit the mud 2nd shot somehow he bounded just as the bullet arrived...went under mud flew 3rd shot he went down.... all this happend very very fast if i had to guess he was moving at 40mph or so
  14. I've been handloading the Nosler ballistic tip bullet for the past ten years or so. I love the accuracy that I can get with them, but have also had some failures with this bullet. I've been shooting a 130 grain bullets almost exclusively in my 270, and some of these loads are extremely fast. Over the years I've had three of the Nosler Ballistic tip bullets blow up on the shoulder blades of antelope. I mean they litterally blew up without entering the chest cavity. There was a huge hole on the entrance with little penetration. I've recently bought some Nosler Accu-bond bullets that I hope to try. I've heard you can get the accuracy of a Ballistic tip with them, yet they will hold together for even bigger big game. Years ago, I used to load the Nosler Partitian bullets for elk and even deer. Although they perform well they just won't group nearly as tight as a Nosler Ballistic Tip. I've recently bought some Barnes triple-X bullets. They are supposed to be very accurate without blowing up on bone. I guess the bottom line is I just need to get out shooting, and test them out. I'd sure like to find a long range accurate bullet that won't fail on big game. In the past it was hard to find a bullet that would meet both needs. With todays technology this is changing....Steve1 I too use them in both .308 and .270 win I think the problem is shot placement...I too noticed the bullet does not penetrate fully to the point of passing through ....but that is why I am using them it acts like a sledgehammer....@ 211yds a whitetail buck was taken at a full run broadside to me and he disappeared from the scope...because it drove him away from me so hard that when he landed he broke his shoulders....post mortem showed that the bullet had pierced the heart and stopped on the inside of the ribcage before piercing the opposing side. Barnes X is an exellent choice
  15. It was done in jest to see who would actually fall for it. Darius I hope that you of all people would see the humor in it. My apologies to you my friend....anyone else can suck ass
  16. I think they should have to post the pics here to prove they are all in compliance
  17. This news just in minutes ago: A fatwha(religous edict) has been issued by leaders in reaction to the american agression against innocent muslims ALL MUSLIM WOMEN ARE NOW REQUIRED TO SHAVE THEIR PUBIC REGIONS IN ORDER TO SHOW HOW MUCH WE HATE "BUSH" I hum it 'cause I can ( Henry 3:16 )
  18. What's opsec? OH sweet jesus....go join the army will ya? I hum it cause I can (Henry 3:16)
  19. The old 30 cal military rifle cartridge also kicks enough that a lot of people were not very accurate with it, and the .308 wasn't even close to the most powerful 30 cal available. Dude are you referring to 30-06 vs. .308? the size of the long range targets at camp perry were shrunk by half due to the accuracy of the 308 as for ballistics they are nearly identical check it out at any ammo manufacturers website. as for people being "inaccurate" the problem is training. the best solution is actually adopting 6.5mm grendel which is a true 1000 meter weapon and it is the same OAL as the 5.56x45mm which will work nicely in all our favorite weapons check it out at www.alexanderarms.com the best part is that our enemies will take a good while to learn that our M4s will have the punch of a .308 at long ranges since the mass of the bullet is twice that of the 5.56mm and its still supersonic @ 1200meters the basic thing is it pushes that round at only 2600f/ps @ the muzzle and doesn't slow down much due to it's BC @ .620 with a lapua scenar bullet and now there is a nosler ballistic tip for those "special" needs as for the effieciency of the 6.5mm round just ask any scandanavian moose hanging on a wall in someones lodge.
  20. There is a new show on al aribiya now....it's called Jihad.... just like hee-haw only we dont get any pretty girls with their tits hanging out and the one that plays minnie pearl has no teeth!
