Congrats on your purchase. Enjoy it. And welcome to the addiction.

Well played, sir.

That's because they weren't .50 cal!

Do you mean on the release, the slide or both? I assume that could be true with all the tension on it, but that goes for anything I guess.

Well, as some of you know from recent posts I just picked up a Remington 700 in .308 so the Mosin will not be going to Canada.

If you wanna pay me 15 bucks a minute you can call me up and I'll talk sexy for ya.

Actually, most of the deer that I've seen in Jersey (Cape May County) at least could definitely be taken by a .223, I might even consider it too much. lol. My English Springer is bigger then some of the full grown adults. haha

I can't find the homeless items

You missed Nick's point. I'm going to rephrase what Nick said because it keeps getting taken out of context. I believe what Nick is saying is "This day and age our leaders have decided that firearms ownership is a priveledge and not a right." Nick, correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that's what you meant and nobody seems to get.

I don't believe that Nick was trying to say that gun ownership is a priveledge. I think some may have taken it out of context. In the original post he that that THIS DAY IN AGE it's a priveledge, like it or not. Especially in this state it's a priveledge not a right, with FIDs, COEs, Pistol Permits, etc. I understand where he is coming from. I personally agree that it's a right, but if that's the case, why all the red tape? Why do we need references? Why do we need an FID? Because the people that were elected decided that that's what we need. Instead of arguing amongst ourselves why can't we all just agree to disagree. I've been on this sight for awhile now and I've never seen more negative rep in one thread than I have until now. Everyone has their own ideas. Everyone has there own thought process. Do I think it's a right to own guns? Absolutely. Do I think everyone in the US should have a gun. No, because there are people out there that don't have the maturity for it whether they are 13 years old or 53 years old. So why can't everyone cut the crap and instead of saying "No you're wrong", and go with something a little easier and say something like "I see where you're coming from, but..." Everyone please remember that we are all here for one reason. Guns. We all love them whether we collect antique war relics, or the new cool mall ninja guns. This is one place online where up until now everyone seemed like family. Now I see people bashing each other for what they feel. People that I have seen in other threads talking to each other like they were family. AND WE ARE FAMILY. We are the gun owning, gun toting, family of New Jersey. Tea Party, Republican Party, Democratic Party, whatever. Get over it. Nobody is better than anyone else on this board. Lets try to keep it a little more civil. And remember, we've all gone through the same paper work on this board (except maybe mipafox, lol). Let's keep it civil. P.S.-

Did it say what channel it'll be on?

I did a trade with a member on the forum, so I didn't even really consider a Remington 700 until he offered it for trade.

That's what I figured.

Oh, and Glenn, why the pill bottle caps? Never heard of anything like that before. Is it so the feet of the bipod slide?

OK, cool. I actually had that bookmarked. I just didn't know if it was free float or not. Thanks for the help. Keep the good info comin.

Let me know when you plan on goin out, Ron. I'm always free on Fridays and Saturdays. Is this the stock that you have? My link

Well, the rifle range I go to is up to 200 yards. I would like to turn this rifle into a sub MOA rifle. And, Jimmy, what exactly do you mean by tune the rifle?

I just picked up a Remington 700 SPS Varmint in .308 and am new to the whole long range shooting thing. The rifle already has a scope on it. It's a Remington brand 4x12-40mm scope. The barrels twist rate is 1:12 I believe. I never really put much thought into the twist rate of a barrel affecting the weight of the bullet that should be used. What weight bullet would be ideal for this twist rate? Also, I wanna squeeze every last bit of accuracy out of this and was reading online that alot of people glass bed the action and free float the barrels. Would this even be worth it to do, as the range I shoot at only goes out to about 100 yrds. Any recommendations for a good scope that won't break the bank? I don't think Im going to replace the one that's on it but if I decide to what's a good affordable scope? Any other tips, recommendations, upgrades, ideas, whatever, are welcome.

No wheel spin in 2nd and 3rd gear? That's what the Cobalt SS is all about! Haha

I would definitely recommend using the firearms price request on the forum. A lot of the dealers on this site can beat prices you find from many major retailers and prices online. Also, if buying online could be more expensive than goin to a shop. You have to remember that when buying online that even if you find a good price you still have to get it shipped and transfered to you. Meaning that whatever the site charges for shipping plus pay for the transfer. That could mean another 70 bucks tacked on to what you paid for the gun. And don't forget about the marketplace on this site. There's usually a lot of good stuff on there. That's how I bout more than half the guns I own.

As someone who has worked as a bouncer in Wildwood, I can honestly say I would rather have the bikers every weekend than all the wackers in one spot for one weekend.

Chuck Norris vs. Steven Segal? Wouldn't that kind of be like when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object?

Welcome to the site. And, yes the hobby can be expensive, but there are many firearms out there that are fairly inexpensive to buy and/or shoot on a regular basis. Just gotta know where to look.
