I saw one about a year or so ago, and it was in decent shape. However, it has long since been sold. If hear or see of one again, I'll keep you in mind.

Marine Sniper: 93 Confirmed Kills I have the first edition in my book collection. Read it when it came out and a couple of times since.

Yep. We get visitors all the time. Even my avatar is a 6x5 resting on my front door mat.

I think you will enjoy the shoot with either bullet choices, but I would lean toward 60gr and higher BC's that will load and feed well in your mags, have better wind drift and give very good accuracy. You can still load the 53's for days/times the winds are calm to light. If they are. Don't over...

I hear you, but we never heat barrels to the point of not touching them. Hence, one of the reasons we always take 3 or more on those multi-day shoots to swap out if getting too "warm". Which takes a while with heavy varmint barrels in 222/223. Even when I am shooting more local, which I have...

If a few shots a day at long range is all one wishes, I guess a 7Mag or other such cartridges/rifles could be made to work, but there would be no way I would wish to use such cartridges on many of the P-dog towns I have shot. Heck, even some of the slower towns I've shot are 100-200 rounds a day...

Here's a longer range 223 load for one of my 1/8" twist bolt rifles and single load AR, and a 22/250AI for even longer range.

Part of always bringing at least one other rifle is just in case something fails on your primary. Also, if you are on a good town with lots of shooting, letting one rifle cool while using another is great also, and then there is the shorter range vs longer range caliber/BC loads to help fight...

Color Revolution...........

Yep. When it first came out. Back in the late 70's and into the late 80's, I was into survival training. Some was in the mil as an aviator, and some was due to various books and courses like Tom Brown's and others. And of course, I grew up on a poor small farm/ranch and learned by the school of...

I've read the first two, but I haven't read the third. There are several books on survival of all types, and while many focus on conflict, I prefer books that actually teach the day to day routines, wild food and medicinal sources, water and purification, trapping, tracking, survival building...

Fingers crossed someone will bring back TC to its glory days.

LOL.....I shot a few deer and yotes from my old front yard and across the neighbor's small bean field, and walked into the hilly woods about 50 yards from my back yard. Years ago, I made a few trips to Anniston AL and Ft McClellan to pick up various items, mostly surplus ammo, from the DCM and...

As a younger man, I would hunt well over 100 days per year. If the various large and medium game seasons were closed, I would hunt turkeys, hogs, small game, fowl, coyotes, crows, P-dogs, etc, etc. Heck, even snakes and snapping turtle infested ponds were not immune from 22's. If I counted all...

Just curious how many have purchased a used set of dies or maybe a shotshell loader at a yard sale, estate sale, Craig's List, private, or from some other used source, and then discovered you just had to have a firearm to put those dies to good use? Over the decades, I have bought boxes of...
