Dont be afraid of buying used. =) Cant go wrong with a Beretta 92fs.

happy birthday Eric. Now lets see if thread gets longer than 2 pages. =) If so, matt will feel owned. at least you put in the right date and can read. =p

Only new FID's need to get electronic prints. all of the old prints were scanned in and now on file. So you are paying the $18 and they pull the prints to send to state police.

All of those are great.

I actually have a few different loads, so for that reason, I do keep them in boxes. For Rifle... they are all in boxes, as I try to dial in specific loads.... although I do have a mag or two loaded for HD. For bolt actions, they are all in boxes.

This is not true. I have never had to show my FPID for purchase of 12ga shotgun ammo at Dicks, BH, Action, or anywhere else within the state. 410 may be different because it can be used in the Taurus Judge handgun, as may 22LR as it can be used in numerous handguns despite the "long rifle" appellation. Most Dicks now require FID for everything as per store policy.

honestly, if you had arrests, DUI's and were denied an FID before.... perhaps time to talk to a lawyer?

Talk about assinine.... I am in the investment and insurance business so here is where my prints are done. Insurance - Online fingerprinting at Sagem Morpho. Investments - SEC, and Finra local prints mailed to them. FID - Had prints at local PD. Honestly though... I am glad they went local as now you do them once, that is it, they dont have to print you again, they just pull them from Sagem.

I just got a bunch of them from Graf's.

Humn, just may have to have some loose.

LOL. yes... I refuse to be wasting more time on Survivor with Guns. But lets be honest... all this talk about team stuff.... at the end of the day, there is only 1 winner.

Kelly is by far the strongest rifle shooter, was perhaps second strongest archery, but most of all, he is open to anything without the 50 year old "I know everything mentality." The rest of the folks are pistol shooters. The person who shot themselves, we don't know if they died or how it came out, was someone's ex's of an ex. Not like your brother or sister. Most of all, he apologized. We don't know under what circumstance it was said, but the fact is he apologized, and Bill was holding a grudge. Personally, it doesn't bother me, it doesn't make a difference in my life, nor will it keep me up at night. However, as a matter of choosing people to associate myself with, I would not want to be affiliate with him. Yes, he is a radio show host, and obviously he is the voice of god and shall not be questioned. lol.

lol. I keep mine in the blue boxes. Only stuff that is in bulk is the 22LR. Everything else, reloaded or not is in boxes.

Shane, I think Kelly has the most firearms and ballistics knowledge on that show of the folks there. Kelly made a comment to which most of us would laugh, he then sees it that bill didn't like the joke. He apologized. Bill at that points become a douche bag and holds that grudge. As far as skills, Kelly's were far better than Bill's, and Kelly is by far the strongest overall competitor on the Red team. Fuck bill, and I am glad his ass is done.

ok, so just looked at a few of the reviews. Its not a bad rifle, but by all means, it is a hunting rifle, not really designed to be a target rifle. You will want a better scope but most of all, Ammo. Depending on what caliber you go with, expect $20 a box if you are not reloading. So if money is really an issue, go Milsurplus. You can get a tried and proven bolt action, dirt cheap ammo (for now), huge fireballs, and knowing that you have a true piece of history. If you pick up a basic mil surplus... you can easily upgrade it in the future. check out Eric's Monster Mosin. It will give most modern firearms a run for their money.

dont forget the money pits... Optics and ammo. esp if 308. If you say this is a target rifle... this is important. Optics, most target shooters will spend as much on a scope as they do on a rifle, if not more. Once you are shooting at 300 yards or more.... you want it. =) Secondly, ammo. Most good 308 is between 75 cents to $1 a round. Target ammo is sometimes close to $2 a round retail, $1.25 a round if you shop it online. Lastly... do yourself and your wallet the right thing and buy used if you can. Most often, alot of the rifles are wayyyyy under utilized, and someone may shoot 100 rounds and it sits... I am quite certain if you go into the average american home, open their safe, and look at a bolt action rem 700, Savage 10fp, etc... it will have less than 250 rounds fired. This is not an AR, this is not an AK.... if you shoot 60 rounds in a sitting, that is alot!. For instance, I bought my Remington 700 VS for about $700. It came with an alright scope, however I spent another $600 on a top end Nikon. The scope on the rig makes a huge impact. Make sure you also have good bases for the scope and rings. Lastly, dont forget a good Bipod, $50 to $100. Lastly.... cleaning supplies. lol. Hope that helps.

PMC loads a tad hot typically, but have not had any issues. They do make some great brass to reload though.

holy crap..... i am in soooooo much pain. lol. I thought I was in pretty good shape anyway from working out and swimming, but damn, the last standing slow fire killed me. My whole lower back, where you pivot and shift your back is super SORE. But still very very very much worth it.

Pretty much every department now switched to sending folks out for electronic fingerprinting. Good thing is, you do it once and thats it. After a year if you need more permits, you just sign a release form to pull your prints from the electronic fingerprinting place.

yay, I am glad douchebag Bill is gone. Brad irritated me, but he will be great to see next week. Bill on the other hand, completely a dirt bag, complaining about others, behind their back. He should take his pussy off his pedestal.... wait wait... he lost.

I expected more folks to use springfields, however I was the only one with a bolt action. lol. Rapid fire could be a bit tricky speed wise... but still easy with stripper clips.

Hope all had a great fathers day. Just wanted to share about the match I shot today. My first CMP match, and wow. Talk about an experience, and a grueling experience to shoot in 90 degree humid weather. all the people at Central Jersey were very helpful. Some of the nicest folks I have met. Plenty of loaner equipment avail, and all events are open to the public. As someone who shoots mostly with scopes, this was a completely different event. Everyone but myself were using M1 Garands with peep sights, I decided to use my new to me Swedish Mauser Model 38 with open irons. i think I did ok for first time shooting at 200 yards/meters? with a bolt off of a sling, scored in the high 250's. But i dont think it was too bad for first time shooting a rifle match with a new rifle, for the first time. lol. Started using the shooting jacket, but was just toooo hot, so just used it on the last round, slow fire standing. will definitely be back again.

It is a store. you will see a sign for it.

The Hk's and Taurus guns have a nifty safety lock integrated into the frame.

Only press that LEE makes that I can whole heartedly recommend is the Classic turret. Others are blah. Anyone is welcome to come and use mine to play with.
