Compelling, not so much on the powder, but that it's the first time I've seen you make 2 posts in a thread without whining about Stick. "Dear Lord, save me from Your followers"

Wrong again.... you owe Ingwe another $10.... so that is a $20 spot you owe him so far... but I do have a question for the general floor here... why does the guy in the yellow shirt and the rabbit have the same look on their faces?.. its like they are related or something....

Awwwww it just seems that way to you, since you are always lurking on Schmuck's threads looking to see when it is that I give him his crap right back... you forget, Schtick's my hero... he's Friggin AWESUM.... just ask him....Mac Davis wrote a song about Schtick...he was so impressed with him.... Schtick was so impressed with it.. he bought 10 million copies to give to all of his groupies.... Did you get your copy/copies?

You're just rehashing the same old schit. It's time to expand out of the peasant realm. First thing, order a suppressor. Next thing, build a Blackout. It's obvious you've found love in North Mexico and I can assure you, you'll have far more fun with this rig, in that country, than you ever will with another same ol', same ol'. Take the plunge.

And if you replaced them, what ROT did you go to? P.S. I have a 1 in 10 on a .223 and I love it...... "...the left considers you vermin, and they'll kill you given the chance..." Bristoe

I have a 1-9, but would do a 1-8 every time over the 1-9; I've never had issues with the 75 A-Max shooting great, but would hedge even more. At the time, I barreled it for 69 grainers. Sako used a 1-12 on their .223's and 222 Mags, not that it gains anything over a 1-14. Remington used the 1-14.
