How is Ammo availability/cost?

Now you're BIG PIMP'N!!

Going out now to start shovelling--gonna be a loooong day

I saw people by the bldg off Stone Hill Rd, bordering in Tighe park (was Liberty Oak). Was doing a 5k race at that park today. Does anyone know of them? Just curious if they were a hunting lodge type thing for members to gather at, or if they may actually have an indoor range. The area is way too built up now for anything outside

yeah, I was gonna start with .30-06, ROI should be faster on that round, then .223 & .45 ACP, before 9mm. If I get real ambitious and there are dies for then, 7.62x38R.

Raap raap Rappp, they call him the rappper-------

Actually the Named Evil List says M14S not M14, I just double checked it from the NJSP firearms unit page. Didn't the Clinton admin order the destruction of a bunch of M14s (plural) rather than have them go to DCM/CMP?

See the same sorta stuff all the time on motorcycle boards, they are wayyy more over the top than any gun board I have seen. Pick a topic, oil and tires are good ones to get flame wars going. Dealerships and parts suppliers have the same lovers/haters as any gun related forums' shops & internet retailers. Hell, even internet running forums have their 'experts"on shoes, food & race reviews!

I am right eye dominant, rechecked and even asked my eye doc for sure last was in there, so I have no excuse. The vision in my left eye (uncorrected) is 10x worse than my right. When I use sights I close my left eye to line them up and will sometimes open both eyes, but I do get that sort of double sight picture on handguns, at least

I am sure, but I did also get a brick of .22lr in there :mrgreen: That 500 each of 9 & .45 will last me a couple of months, likely into the summer.... I am collecting my (reloadable) brass at this point for the pistols and m1, when I decide what other rifle to get next year, will save that right off the bat as well. Really a function time right now at least, lots going on at home, can barely squeak time out to hit BA/CJRPC indoor once every two weeks, and forget about spending a day outdoors shooting on a weekend :roll: i will certainly take you up on that free lesson, and probably drag along a fellow shooter with the same time issues that lives in Waretown. I did tell my wife already that I am calling the JCG and Hi power clinic days for 2010 at CJRPC as boys day out at the range, and to schedule stuff around them 8-)

Argh, d*mn you people So I did this one for the 9m, then figured WTH, I need .45 and you can never have enuff .22lr, so off I went to Ammo to go, now $300 poorer all the way round---

Actually, the rhing that has helped me is relaxation techniques, and not downing a big mug of coffee before I go. I bought a book off Amazon that treats trigger jerk as a purely mental problem, an takes a very zen approach to shooting. Just reading the book helped, that seems to be my main proble, rush rush rush to get home, get dinner, do stuff w/family, house, etc. etc. tends to make me stresses at the range. If I can get to a calm relaxed state I do much better. I tried the dime and empty casing tricks, and managed to keep those objects on the guns (autos) while dry firing. I will also stop in a string of shots and lower the gun and relax if I feel myself rushing or getting tense. Basic stuff, all of it, but sometimes I just need to see it written down before I will heed :mrgreen:

Cowgirls? Where?

It would be for banging away at targets mainly 100-300 yd range, and practicing rifle technique, sighting, breathing, probably throw decent scope on it and practice that as well. And maybe do a carbine combat type seminar for fun. I am not a good shot by any stretch, I can hit the target, from 100-200 yd but tend to scatter too much. Need to work on consistency and relax more. Cost is an issue, need to be under $1K, preferably new in box, I have used guns, want new for now. And was looking for something different, most of what I have are standards that have been manufactured by the millions, and been around awhile (10/22, 1911,P226, etc..). A bolt action rifle is on my wishlist as well for the future, but have to slip it in past SWMBO, maybe next year :mrgreen: . Anyways, thanks for the inputs, definetley food for thought, will see what things look like after Christmas.....

That is wacky, is this some odd way of tryng to sell the thing?

Ha! If you went to the Howell Applebees at about 1830, i was across the road at Wawa getting dinner for my gang. Wife loves the hot turkey with Stuffing, cranberry & gravy---- :puke-front: Looks grossto me--

Anyone a member/go there? Heard they have a 600 yd range, curious about it, they have CMP & hipower matches scheduled already for 2010, worth the trip?

Ah, OK,I was envisioning a doorbell or a hanging bell or something, and a super genius dog, unlike mine, who barks when she needs to go out, even an 0230 :evil:

Food thread already? I had Wawa sammich for dinner!

How'd you get your dog to ring a bell?

The revolvers, no clue, but go to the forums at m1911.org, and noodle around, you will see the good & bad for a lot of 1911s. From what I have seen, hi end, low end, cheap or expensive, they all have their fans and people that had stuff break while new or bad accuracy, whatever. Much like anything else, YMMV.

Ach, maybe, I just got back from BA now, quick box thru teh sig and RIA, Daniel was there, yakked with him awhile

I am cleaning my RIA 1911 now, I am happy with it for the money, have shot nicer (Wolfy's SW Pro, Sig) but they were much more. Couple others om here have RIA 1911s.

Seems like every time I check Topgun, they are always out of the 226 9mm 15 rounders, going back a few months also. :doh: I ended up buying Mec-Gars from a place that happened to have a few when I bought a spring for the Nagant, I think they were 27 or $29 at the time, wouldn't be surprised if you can get them cheaper now, along with everything else, the big panic seems to be abating...

Rimfire and handgun only, no centerfire rifles in pits
