Does this number account for Bob's collection?

That's no accident, that's negligent homicide.

Rather painless process - took no more or no less time than it did to get my last set of paper permits. Applied through FARS on 11/07 and got the call to come in and pay for them this morning. I anticipate that eventually it will take longer to get a NICS approval than it will the purchase permits - submitted for NICS last Friday. And worst of all is a Multiple Purchase Exemption. I have been waiting two months + for an MPE to be approved. I also noted during my last FARS application process that you can now use FARS for an MPE also - my application was still in hard copy. Adios, Pizza Bob

That looks like Trail Boss to me. I use it to make mild loads in everything up to 500 S&W. Was it loaded up the the bottom of the bullet? It is normal to fill close to case capacity without compressing.

I like a 16ga. For pheasants. High brass #5 shot, either Remington Express Long Range or Fiocchi Golden Pheasant. Modified choke, or in a double barrel modified in one, full in the other.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Hogue makes a grip specifically for the XD-E so I ordered it and it feels way better. I'm gonna bring it to the range on Friday to see how it REALLY feels.

I learned the hard way that 12ga can sometimes be too much I agree 100%. The answer is, depends. When I am hunting with a dog a .410 is plenty, 20ga is the largest I will use. I have pulverized birds with a 12ga hunting over dogs. Without a dog i will use a 12ga with 2 3/4" shells normally #6 or #5 when very windy.

I used to live 5 mins from that place for many many yrs and could never seem to crack the code to check it out. Door knocks, phone calls, emails, nada, always seemed a secret. So now that I moved out of state I see in the ANJRPC newsletter, that I still get, they have put out a new limited membership call lol...I'm just curious- still- to see what it's about. It knda resembles an abandoned wharehouse and is only a 8 port 50' range but I pictured myself plinking away after dinner or Sunday morns...anyway anyone here go or plan on checking it out? If so would appreciate a tease on what I missed.

Bob buying more guns. At least there's one constant left in this world!

Yep I think you are correct. It definitely looks like it.

Pointing a handgun at someone and "messing with it" as shown in the video is not an accident. That is negligence at best. Had the muzzle been pointed down range the event would have been an "o fudge" moment, not the literal and figurative ending of two lives; not counting the families involved and whatever feces-storm comes down on the range.

What I don't understand is that for the past 3 month or so, you could buy as much TP as you want. I've always had an adequate supply, but I buy when it's on sale. I bought 20 rolls for $16.99 as of about 10 days ago because it was reasonably cheap. There was a mountain of it there. Last Saturday? 95% of it was gone. What is that about? YOU HAD MONTHS TO STOCK UP!

ABC national news ran a story last night about the start of hording again. Said various states are starting to see shortages and limits again. Thankfully, we re-stocked once the supply leveled off this summer.

Hearing TP and paper products becoming scarce again, lines at BJs & Costco and those stres are limiting purchases again. Hope everyone here stocked up. If anyone needs TP I can trade some for some 5.56 / 223. What's a good exhange? Two rolls of "the good stuff" for 20 rounds??

Harbor Freight currently has their .30cal size plastic ammo cans on sale for $2.99 The Pennsauken store was stacked deep with them yesterday. If I needed any more than I already have (dozens) I would have bought them. YMMV.

SOLD on gunbroker

ahhhh, these were the days: How about this: Or this:

I wish I never sold my m6a2! I shot a barrel out on it and replaced with a nos lothar walther barrel Darren had lying around. Never a single malfunction ever!. She ran clean, was fairly light (relative as the the quad rail was heaviest piece), accurate, just all around great rifle. your post brings back memories.

Join a club. CJRPC or Old Bridge. You go when you want and as long as you want. Take part in matches. You won’t regret it.

There are lots of answers to this question. Are you hunting pheasants tramping the underbrush alone, hunting over a flushing dog, hunting over a pointing dog? Your method will dictate what you need. Flushing pheasants underfoot are supposed to be easy to hit and will drop with anything. Pheasants that flush far out and have time to get up steam are tough to bring down and when poorly hit they can travel a long distance, both in flight or worse by running on the ground. 12, 16 or 20 ga? When I was young (13) I thought you needed the heaviest loads to kill pheasants. Bigger was supposed to be better. In the 60's I stoked my grandfather's 16 ga. double with the same shells he used for pheasant and ducks; high brass #4's, #5's, #6's. Damn that light gun kicked like hell with 1 1/8 oz. & 1 1/4 oz. loads. I think I weighed 90 lbs. at the time. I didn't know any better, but thought I was doing it right. As I've grown older and wiser, and carried light guns and smaller gauge's, hunted over a good pointing dog, I learned you don't need such big loads to take down pheasants if you hunt them on your terms. My favorites that I put in my shell loops: 12 ga. handloaded 1 oz. of #6's or #5's @ 1235 fps 16 ga. handloaded 7/8 or 1 oz. #6's or #5's @ 1250 fps 20 ga. handloaded 7/8 oz of #6's @ 1350 fps or 1 oz. @ 1200fps of #6's or #5's When I can find copper-plated shot I prefer it, but magnum lead is fine. If you don't handled, factory premium shells use harder lead, so patterns are dense and uniform. But you won't know that until you pattern your gun with the loads you intend to use and determine what chokes are best. Every shotshell maker makes a premium "high velocity" pheasant load, but "field loads" are fine with pheasant with the appropriate shot. The ultimate, most-used pheasant load in a 12 ga. for decades has been the loading of 3 3/4 dr. - 1 1/4 oz. - #6 shot @ 1330 fps Pheasants can motor. Upon flight they average speeds of 45mph. Once underway they've been known to hit 60 mph.

Many of the hunting preserves in NJ - such as the one CNJFO is hosting a Pheasant hunt on Saturday, February 6th at Giberson's Farm and WIldlife Preserve in Pemberton NJ - want nothing bigger than #6 pellets. Go to https://www.cnjfo.com/event-4052517 for more information I've hunted there several times - always a blast!

Here's a little AOC (Donkey Face humor)

In my experience Norma makes outstanding ammunition.

Video title says it's a "gun range instructor" but it's obviously not. I thought the video was going to be over quickly when he looked down the barrel of the loaded pistol, but he was lucky. Not so much for his girlfriend... https://worldstar.com/video.php?v=wshh3BjN0PQbOJr2vi28 So much fail and stupid....

It's one of the most closely guarded secrets in Bergen County.
