  1. You should reread the guidelines. You are not allowed to bring your own rifle. You must use the muzzle loader provided for you!
  2. Wow, a year later and I'm thinking about going tomorrow AM. Guessing it's 300 yards prone, but anyone have any actual information?
  3. They are around 15-20% more fps than a cheap plinking round. I don't hesitate to shoot them in anything, but pretty much only shoot CCI AR tactical these days (which I just found out was the same velocity, but 6gr heavier than mini-mags, so actually more energy!
  4. Perhaps, but I'm not sure I would buy any stock of a company with financials that bleak. Negative EPS, negative profit margins and pretty much universal analyst negative/sell outlooks. On the other hand, they're at a 52-week low, nearly, but these days a lot of companies create new 52-week lows all the time.....
  5. Just use any financial website on one of these symbols, like RGR, and they will give you all the industry comparables: RGR google finance page By the way, the old "invest in companies whose products you like" is a nice concept, but doesn't actually work very well in practice.
  6. I have a couple race cars, and while they do put 1/R over to the left, in this truck 4 and 5 are reversed, which would make it very odd shifting with any kind of speed...
  7. No attribution! Where did this thing come from?
  8. I've been exclusively shooting CCI AR Tactical 22LR in everything for the last year or so, in every kind of 22LR (except an AR-22, which I don't have) and have not had a single FTE or FTF or any kind of failure at all in all the 1000's I've shot. I've been buying this stuff by the boatload and it is has all been perfect.
  9. No surprise, same as the home office NJFAGs in Rahway. They've made a corporate decision to discourage transfers. I tried to use them to transfer a custom action from a benchrest rifle builder, and they still wanted $75. So, I buy some guys from them, but no transfers (which is probably what they want).
  10. I also have the larger range bag in green, and it's great. You can carry an amazing amount of stuff, and I no longer have to move things in and out of my range bag depending on who is going with me. I can leave three sets of ears in all the time, plus my 50BMG shoulder pad, etc, and never need to clean it out.
  11. False. See this post which has a nice chart of the requirements: You need to transfer....
  12. I own and shoot a 50 BMG, and reload for it too. The bullets are not larger than your thumb, or at least mine.
  13. Yes, I am a very senior manager at one of the largest financial institutions in the world (a good, solid one). I not only have normal employment, but am a registered SEC rep, have had clearances at previous research jobs, etc. Your second paragraph is correct. You certainly need a valid SS number. My point is that you don't need the SSN card, and the conversation was started because another thread was about a poor guy who had his wallet stolen with his SSN card. I postulated that the card itself was unnecessary. -Dave
  14. It's best just not to go to Sayreville Sportsman....
  15. The number is required by eVerify, the card is absolutely not. I've been eVerified a couple of times lately....
  16. Have gotten them all, never produced an SSN card. Produced the number many times, and some other documents like passports and driver licenses....
  17. The one thing I haven't done in a very long time is to open a normal bank savings/checking account. So, other people have these cards somewhere? I'm not even sure I have a card!
  18. I don't think that's really true. I have many brokerage accounts, hedge fund accounts, weird transactional accounts, all requiring Know Your Customer paperwork, and no one has ever asked for an SSN card. I've closed on at least two mortgages in the past year or two, opened and closed accounts, etc. In fact, I've developed Know Your Customer and Anti-Money Laundering systems and SSN cards haven't played any roles. For the 6-point NJ Driver License scheme, SSN cards are down in the 1-point category.... Can you quote some SEC or other regulations I can read?
  19. Not wanting to kick someone when they're down, I wanted to ask this question in a separate thread. Is there any reason for a Social Security card, ever? I don't think I even have one, and I've certainly never carried it around. They're not supposed to be valid ID, so why would you ever need one? I've opened up every kind of account, every kind of financial transaction, lots of different government ID's and cards, etc, but never needed an SSN card. So, when do you need one? Again, the other thread made me think about this, and I don't want to kick anyone when they're down, but it got me curious!
  20. Call the other reference and remind her? Has your wife asked her to return it? This reminds me of a very important point in the business world; never put someone down as a reference unless you have talked with them first. 1) They know it's coming, that you asked for it, and that it's important to you, and 2) if they aren't comfortable giving you a recommendation they'll let you know instead of saying something that messes you up!
  21. I use a lot of Remington Gun Club Target Ammunition 12 Gauge 2-3/4" 1-1/8 oz #7-1/2 Shot. I shot around 250 shells last Saturday alone! (And managed 14 in a row at one point with a very fast thrower). I never pay more than $5.50 a box, and look for $5/box sales (Cabela's had one last weekend). Dick's also often has it for $5.50/box if you watch. Bought 3 cases from Dick's in Freehold two weekends ago. They also have "Light Target" ammo with exactly the same specs, in the same exact box with one word added. I don't do nearly as well with that. -Dave
  22. Can we make it normal paragraphs, so we can read it without getting annoyed?
  23. So, this is the definition of a retailer with whom I would never do any business. Buy it somewhere else where the proprietors are not interested in soaking you for all you are worth today. The S&W M&P-22 has an MSRP of $419. According to the Gun Genie, Paul at Arms-N-Ammo will sell it for $352. So, that speaks for itself. Paying retail is rough enough; paying above MSRP is a bad thing.
  24. Natchez has Titegroup in stock in both 1' and 4' containers. MidSouth only has 1' containers in stock, and you just missed their free Hazard shipping fee offer. -Dave
