Remington issues anyone?
UMC 9mm, 45acp, and 38 special = no issues from me - Thousands of rounds for years - all fed and fired. 22 thunderbolts - my ruger 10/22 works fine with them (dirty as hell and accuracy is sub par though), and my bolt action 22 has no issues with them but it's a bolt with a mauser claw type extractor. I prefer the federal bulk packs of 525 in the 22lr platform. UMC for all my bigger stuff. Federal copper plated hollow points make me smile in 22 though.

Bullet hits Lou Dobbs' northwest NJ home
I agree - it was a "insert synonym for kitty that I can't post" for sure.

Remington issues anyone?
It's not the ammo (unless it was a bad lot - but I doubt that). It's the guns or the shooter or dare I say it.....lack of cleaning ability has allowed gunk to build up and not cycle properly. Seriuosly though......I have never had any issues with UMC in any of my guns, EVER - it's my favorite cheap stuff to shoot.

Suicide @ Assunpink WMA's rifle range...
Suicide is for the weak. I feel sorry for any family he left behind.

took the walk of shame tonight.
I have done the walk of shame in woodbridge myself. The last time I bought gun club shells they just let me walk it down myself. The time before when I purchased some good old core lokt in 30.06 and .308, they put it one of those security boxes and then proceeded to walk me and the ammo to the front register. I just don't get it! Oh well.
- GUT PYLE.

8k tax credit for home buys set to be extended.
75k is for individual, 150k is joint limit limit. They both are on the title so if one makes more and the other makes less (and they are not yet married).... would one qualify, both qualify, or both be disqualified?

.22lr at Effingers
Effinger's is a rip off in my opinion. The 525 round boxes were 17 bucks a pop over the summer.

8k tax credit for home buys set to be extended.
My sister's realtor and real estate attorney just told her Friday (they are closing on a home down the street from my wife and I this week) that since she and her soon to be husband make more than 75K together, this rebate does not apply. They are doing a fha loan and locked in at 5% for 30 years this past week. Is this true? Any financial wizards out there want to help out with some analysis?

Illegal to carry loaded mag?
Be careful.....People have been flamed terribly for similar logical thinking with gray areas in the NJ statute with regard to being a guinea pig for the NJ legal system. I would lend you my flame suit but it is burnt to a crisp!

Newark officials to announce gun buyback program
Lock your safes - because where else are these criminal scumbags going to get them. God knows they don't get pistol purchase permits like we do.

Ok, I'm stupid.. I burned a permit on this:
There is no such thing as a wasted permit unless it goes unused.

308 help
More than likely an FN of some sort, with no respect for my Kimber tactical or whatevr it is I have Tiny's Kimber is a great rifle. It is based upon the model 70 action (just streamlined) which is my favorite action and also what the FN SPR's are built on. Since Tiny wants some respect for his thunderstick (and it is deserving of praise) I will now say here are my top 3: 1.) Model 70 action. 1.5) Kimber Tactical (Built in their 8400 length long action). 2.) Remmy 700 action. Sorry Tiny. The Kimber is top notch as well.

what are you drinking?
:violin: Don't you dare drop out! You are too smart for that little brother! Plus........I will tell your mom! Getting an education is not easy! It's worth it! As for drinks......I usually like a cold beer, but being a Jets fan, I might have to switch to something stronger on Sundays!

newly aquired Remington 700 VS .308
Many shooters use the 308 for the 1000 yard bench rest shooting. Here are some numbers: 150gr Serria Match Kings around 2750 fps at 10 ft from the muzzle will produce 2532.8 ft-lbs of energy. At 600 it's producing 774.9 ft-lbs of energy, still enough to take down a deer. But at 1000 yards it's only producing 354.5 ft-lbs of energy (definitely tumbling by then) and if it were me behind the trigger shooting this load, I wouldn't stretch it past 550 to 600 yards from the energy produced alone. The 308 with 168 ballistics is generally "tumbling" at 900-1000. Not all guns, but most with less than a 26 inch barrel. The 175 is the LR round to go to 1000 without having the projectile turning over itself. However.....Using the 308 with the 208 amax's, you COULD hold 1000ft/lbs of energy to 1000 yards without key-holing but I haven't seen that with my own eyes let alone get to try it out, YET! I personally won't shoot game past 600 yards with my 30.06, and I won't hunt with anything smaller. But I have taken a bull elk out in Colorado with a 180 grain Nosler Accubond at a ranged 457 yards with my father in law and his hunting buddies. He ran 50 yards or so and dropped in his tracks. In their own words, "a city boy can't handle a rifle like that!" Needless to say, they don't call me a city boy anymore! Hope this helps.

newly aquired Remington 700 VS .308
300 yards is all I have access to at Central Jersey but if you know of a good 1000 yard range, let's plan a trip. 308's accurate to 1000 yards? btw, don't you remember me calling you "one of the old guys" and when I met you, I found out you were 2 years older than me? Does that mean I'm old? With the right finger on the trigger - .308's can do 1000 easy. Yes - you are old.
