Right on Marty !!

Don’t sweat those that don’t run suppressors or much less carry them in the brush, in and out of vehicles, box blinds, Treestands, etc.

First, I’ve got an Adirondack in 6.5 in a Montana stock, that’s around 6# with sling, scope, suppressor, and ammo. There are days I’d cut that 18” factory tube to 16”. It’s likely one of the best shooting/hunting setups I have. Heck, I even had a 70 classic stainless in 270 chopped to 18” and threaded. It’s a much heavier setup, but shoots/hunts like a dream and is extremely quiet and easy to shoot well. I’ve got other, noodle barrel rifles, but they sit much more now. Next 308 or 7-08 I set up will be 16-17”, for sure. Anything longer is too long.

I even attributed it to you, Betty Sue. I know you're embarrassed by your "weeerrllllddd clawwwwsss" mounting job. Just keep crying, as you say "file your hurt feelers report" as the estrogen pumps through your veins and the flow fills your panties.

Its real simple fellas. The Church is the Church, and Israel is Israel. Two things different are not the same. If you are confused about this don't feel bad. Even the Apostles didn't get it at first and the church as a whole has been screwing it up for 2000 years more or less. Most preachers do not properly use the Old Testament and add further to the confusion.

But don't stay confused. It leads to two big errors.

Error number 1......hating Jews. That's just ignorant. Don't get between God and the people to whom he has made "irrevocable" promises. They are a train wreck right now but let God handle them. Don't think that the church has taken their place. We haven't. The Jews are "his people". What is the church? The Bride of Christ right? We run around saying "Jesus is the Messiah", but what does that mean? It means Jesus is the King of Israel. What is the bride of a King. A queen right? What does a queen do? Sit beside her husband on a throne! That is what we are going to be doing in the Millennial Kingdom, which is going to be headquartered in Jerusalem. If you are Jew hater waiting on the Iraqis or the Russians, or the Chinese, or America or anyone else to destroy Israel......its gonna be a long wait.

Error number 2.........becoming a Judaizer. This is a Christian who tries to please God by attempting to observe parts of the Mosaic Law which they usually wind up completely half-assing to the point it would be funny if it were not sad. Observing dietary laws, putting on a shawl to pray, keeping the feast days, tithing because of Malachi 3, Jewish roots silliness etc. Don't do this either. Read Galatians. Don't fall from grace.

Hope this helps but it probably won't!

Just die, mf'er.

I'll take this if not spoken for. PM inbound.

The convex profile is my favorite hunting blade grind. Scandi for more of a survivalist edge harder use knife.

The club just emailed me and said the CMP shoot is canceled! Woosissi !!!

The community college suggestion is a good one for more than just the cost savings. You will probably receive more attention from and access to the instructor and a better education in a small classroom in a community college than you would spending the first two years in a major university in huge lecture halls with a couple hundred students and little access to the instructor.

I did just that for two years and then applied directly to the engineering department at a large university with an excellent program. The community college had a program set up for students to study and prepare to apply directly into the various engineering departments, i.e., civil, mechanical, electrical, chemical, etc. When I got to the university, I was intimidated at first because I thought my peers would have received a better education at the university than I got at community college. I soon found that my skills were actually better than most of the students who did their first two years at the university. I did well and even received scholarships from the engineering department based on my academic performance.

I went back to the university and got a Masters in Engineering after I had worked a few years.

Through all my years of schooling, from kindergarten through graduate school, I think the best instruction I received was at that community college.

Regarding CrashPad's advice to learn AutoCAD rather than getting the architecture degree. Definitely learn AutoCAD. With that skill she'll be able to easily set out her own shingle and call her own shots rather than being someone else's employee. Having an architect's license will only help her to do that and it will give her more control as her career progresses.

Bro, for $800-$900 you can get one of the new ones with lock and MIM parts. Personally it does not matter much to me, but boomers think the older the better, let them think that.

Found a good supply of h4831 that’s a plus👍

Can’t say that I blame her

Excellent shape, pm me an email or cell to send pics, out on the road and will post them publicly tomorrow

Locus’s, those off road pop ups are cool, had two regular ones, that’s a young man’s game, very nice for hunting trips.

At least some people get it, instead of virtual shooting big numbers on paper. A 12 is money. Hint

As far as i can see, abbott is a lyin bitch rino, too.

An 8” 15-40# rod rated for 1-8oz? I’ve been undergunned I guess.

You're a "hoghead" huh?
I was a "mudhop" for 15 years.
BRAC (clerks) sold us down the river when they started computerizing way bills and train lists. (mid 70's)
"Iron wheels" is about all today's railroads have in common with the railroads of twenty years ago!

If I'm not mistaken, the BLE (Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers) combined with the BRT (Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen) to become the UTU (United Transportation Union).
Best I recall, the UTU didn't do a good job of representing both.
When the RR's cutoff all the brake men to go to the two man crews, I can only surmise the BRT.
With the two man crews consisting of an engineer and conductor, are both BLE?

Q: I may live out here in Oregon, but My family roots go back since Day 1 in the area you live in. I was born in Bluefield.

As mentioned above, the 53 VMax and a host of other bullets in that weight range would work just fine, to include the Nosler 53 grainer. This is if your rifle has a one in 14 twist or a 1 in 12. I have several 22.250- with both the one in 14 and one in 12 twists. Those bullets stabilize just fine where I live here in Oregon and our local range ( one of the larger ones on the West Coast ) in at 1250 feet altitude. We have steel plates out to 600 meters, and with bullets in that weight range, I can hit those all day long at that distance off the bench.

On the other end, where Schtick is preaching up the virtues of the 1 in 7 twist on a 22.250, I have one of those also, based on a Ruger Action that previously was a 243 barreled rifle. So I have the longer magazine on it and can seat bullets out there quite a bit. That rifle is shot mainly with 75, 80 and 88 grain bullets. And what Schtick is saying is true with it. But at the same time, that rifle can shoot many of the 50, 52, 53, 55 and 60 grains bullets out to 600 plus yards with no issues and without them blowing up or wasting themselves coming out of the barrel. Exceptions that would blow up coming out of the barrel would be the SPSX or the 50 grain TNT mentioned by TOM.. who lives just down the highway from me, here in Oregon, by about 50 miles.

So there in Tazewell Co, you should have zero issues hitting 600 yds accurately with what you have, regardless of altitude, or the twist rate. If my A.O. was where you live, my bullet choices would be covered with the 53 V Max, 53 Ballistic Tip or Varmaggeddon ( either one ), the 55s in V Max or Ballistic tip, or the SPs, the 60 Sierra HP, the Hornady 60 SP or HP. Most of the 50 and 55 grain bullets, such as the Speer TNTs ( both 50 and 55 grainers ), Sierra's HPs and SP, and about any of the 52 and 53 Match Bullets from any of the major manufacturers.

Most of the same bullets will hold up in a 1 in 7 twist also, out to 600 yds easily also.

I've shot pretty much all the bullets I mention above out of the 1 in 12 twisted rifles, ( my favorite being a Model 70, with a 28 inch barrel, with a magnum contour) and then the Ruger with a 24 inch barrel, magnum contour with the one in 8 twist and the longer magazine and throat to fit that bullet length. If you had the 1 in 7 or 1 in 8 twist, for ground hogs or coyotes, I'd suggest the 68 grain BTHP Hornady or the 69 grain Sierra Match King. Two of my favorite bullets, that I didn't mention above.

So I'd say you got your world covered with choices for your rifle, and the 600 yd line is well within range and accuracy potential. Your altitude should not be a hinderance there in Tazewell. Heck, me and a buddy that lives up the Hwy in Roseburg comes down to our local range, and we spend a little time shooting at steel gongs out to 600 yds, using a charge with IMR 4227 or 4198, or RL 7, with bullets in the 50 to 60 grain weights. And heck with his one in 12 twist rifle ( a Tikka), got him set up with some loads utilizing 63 Sierra SMPs and 70 gr Speer SMPs. We both have the right scopes on top with the rifle reticle to do that. His Tikka just sports an old Leupold 12 X with a target dot reticle, but it had a turret added to it at the factory after it was bought.

I wouldn't sweat your choices. The list of what to avoid is much smaller than the list of what would be good for your intended uses. Don't over think it. Ya got something you wonder about, put a round or two down the barrel with it and the barrel will tell you all you need to know about your rifle and its barrel's appetites and what it likes or doesn't.

Addendum;

I see on your profile, you are a Marine. Sempre Fi Brother. My dad was a Marine, but I was Army as I wanted to be a corpsman. Went in after college, but came out of The Army as a Nurse and a Paramedic. Never used that Pre Law degree I got in college.

good luck with your new toy.
