Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Which budget rifle is King?

To imply that plastics are not polymers, is one of the most ignorant comments I've seen on the forum.

Here's a billion words.

To imply that all synthetics are created equal is just as ignorant.

Shodd specializes in ignorant.

I have been trying to help him...

That's pretty bad....

And what does hitting a bolt with a hammer have to do with it's intended function except nothing at all?

Travis, was that a RAR?

I never implyed that plastic is not a polymer. All plastic is a polymer.

There are different kinds of polymer.Some polymer is made of plastic and some isn't.

Too imply that all polymers are made out of plastic isn't the most ignorant statement that has ever been made on this forum but it is uneducated.

Google the different materials polymer are made of then get back to me.

Shod

You didn't?

I would say you most definitely DID.

Oh you poor clueless, dumb bastard. You just can't help yourself can you?

Great stuff here. Please keep talking....

2much- please stop quoting him, if you know what I mean...

Apparently 2muchgun doesn't understand that some polymer is made of plastic while some is not.
Shod

It is not I that don't understand, but you.

A fact readily apparent to all.

And Tensile strength, as for plastic, is in regard to stretching it.

Now please, let it go.

I'm gonna have a shot, go snowblow for 2nd time today, then watch game.

You have a nice day

Shodd:
you are not wrong in that different polymers can have very different physical characteristics (hardness, tensile strength, etc.)

I think the problem is semantics. "Plastics" is a generic term for a material that can be molded or formed. To imply that plastics and polymers are two mutually exclusive types of materials is technically incorrect.

Not that it is particularly germane to your argument, but Cabela's is putting the RAR Ranch Rifle and RAR Predator on sale for $370 from February 5 thru 16. They are also selling a Ruger AR-556 for $630 during that same sale.

Well, thank you very much, 260.

I had talked myself out of buying a predator...But now....where did you see that? (Pant, pant). Don't see anything on the Ruger website?

BiMart had a RAR in 7mm-08 for $319 yesterday in Cheney WA

Not to hijack this thread but whats the opinion on Marlin X7's?

Yes.

Mild back and forth on a S-model Harris. My hand was on the wrist of the stock.




Travis

I noticed my 223 RAR would do the same on the bipod.
