That's nice of you to share.

I just hope his allowance is big enough to buy me something really nice.


Off I go to the big meeting. It takes longer to drive there and back than the meeting lasts.

At least they pay me mileage on this one.

We talking about you? You're not that old.

Believe me, some days I feel that old. It comes and it goes. Have noticed the humidity has messed with me a little more this yr though.

the 1 in 8 barrel might not like the 72 gr. round. It is harder to spin up in that tight a barrel.
Then again you may notice nothing.

I'll see...if it doesn't like it I don't think I'll have a problem selling it. It said it was designed for 1 in 7 twist, which is tighter?

Me too. They're very competitive and have great customer service.

Yep, every time I have ordered from them, I have been pleased. A couple of years ago they oversold some 5.56. They sent me an email explaining what had happened, gave me a $25 discount on that order and my next one.

I felt a little guilty taking the discount, the ammo was just for storage, it wasn't something I was hurting for...
