Re: Doomsday Bunkers

I know one man that did just that. Dug out a basement from a crawlspace with pick and shovel and barrowed out the dirt after he got deep enough to stand.[/quote]

I think I saw a video on youtube about this

Re: Want to buy Remington 597

How much are you looking to spend? I picked up a Remington 597 a few weeks ago for about $180 out the door (gander mountain). Put a Archangel Kit ($115-ebay) on it and purchased 5 30 round mags ($100-cheaperthandirt). Put about 1k rounds down the pipe already (Federal Bulk) and functions flawlessly ...

Taurus PT 92 sight question

Re: Ron Paul ... Thoughts?

I do have to say (like most of you) that I dont agree with Paul on everything but you have to give it to the guy he has been saying the same stuff for years at least he has stuck to what he said so far. That is deffinately a rarity when it comes to politicians now a days. I do agree that we need cha...

Ron Paul ... Thoughts?

Figured it was worth seeing what others thought about Dr. Ron Paul. Personally I think just about anyone would be better than who we have now. I dont normally stay up to date of the medias coverage on our government (partially because I believe that the government controlls the media) But I have bee...

So its safe to say that as long as I have no buldges, cracks or anything that looks irregular the brass is good to go?

Re: New to reloading

OAL’s will differ from bullet to bullet, even if of the same weight. This is due to different nose designs. My guess is you will be around 1.125”.
