I agree, I would not hand my guns to anyone, I wouldn't even ship them to be honest. Shipping one gun to manufacturer for warranty work is one thing but shipping an entire collection is a different story. But the customer asked so my friend needs to know if its legal. Anyway, I forwarded him all the links provided, let him make up his own mind whether or not he wants to transport the guns for his customer. Thanks everyone for the advise and the links.

Metal detectors rely on magnetism, they only catch magnetic materials, neither austenitic stainless steel (most common) nor brass is magnetic.

That's the issue, my buddy is the mover an he is fine doing it as long as it's legal.

A buddy of mine who works for a moving company called me yesterday asking about the laws for transporting guns by a moving company. He has a customer moving from Connecticut to Florida and among his belongings are 61 legal firearms. I know the law regarding interstate transportation of personal firearms, but what is the law regarding having a moving company do it?

The only steel targets i've seen used on R14 are the ones hanging from chains, never saw anyone use standing targets, doesn't mean it's not allowed, I've just never seen it. Your best bet is to call R14 and ask. But as stated before, only at 200 yds.

If I didn't have an IDPA match this weekend I would definitely be at R14. I am up for any weekend for which my wife doesn't find work for me to do, but weekend only.

That would great, thanks for the offer, keeping it .308. I work in Paramus Mon, Wed, and Fri. The barrel won't be in until Monday so I won't need it till then at the earliest. I will PM you when I need it. Thanks again.

I got the Big Boy Silver in 44 a month ago, will be buying a S&W 629 next year for the matching set. I got the skinner sights also, had him make it for me in black and silver.

Its a 308. The Choate stock i have has aluminum vblocks and ample room to freefloat a larger barrel. The reason i originally bedded the lug was because the stock has an empty space in front of the lug.

Most of you probably saw my Savage 16 for sale on this forum last week and I guess nobody liked the price I was asking for it, I was trying to sell it to buy a RPR. But I figured screw it, i'm going to keep it and build it up. So I took it off the sale forum and just ordered a Shilen Select Match varmint barrel for it in stainless steel. I already have a good Choate stock but I need to remove the lug bedding because I also got an upgraded lug and barrel nut. Will also be looking at better optics. I was thinking of getting full action bedding, is it worth it? Also, should I have the barrel threaded for a brake?

After waiting all day for amazon to call me back i got restless and called them again. After aguing with them for 30min they finally told me that the order was not associated with any accounts with my name on it and the payment method does not have my name on it either. They told me that they sent my name to aeropostal for the order because of a "technical glitch". Ok, I understand software bugs, they happen often, but it was like pulling teeth getting that info out of them. I told them that I want an email from them stating that the order wasn't mune and wasn't paid by me, along with a return shipping label. Will I ever get that email? I'm not holding my breath, but atleast I checked all my cards and my credit report, and all seams well for now. As always I greatly appreciate all the good advise that you all provided, Thanks.

Checked everything and changed password. Thanks HE

So the good news is, So far no new accounts under my name according to 2 credit bureaus, and all the credit cards I know of have no charges. The Amazon rep did say that the account was locked due to perceived fraudulent activity, so i'm hoping that was because the CC and shit to name and address didn't match. For now I will just have to wait for Amazon to call me back and take it from there.

Ok I just checked Equifax and Experian. Transunion won't give free credit report more then once per year, and I uled mine about 3 months ago. But I see no new accounts in Equifax or Experian reports.

Nope, no EXs yet. Thanks for the comic relief Mipa

Ok, this is going to be a little long winded I got a package today from aeropostal, something I didn't order, I never shop there. I'm thinking delivered to the wrong address, no problem. Then I look at the shipping label and my name and address are on it, so ok I open the package and there are 3 XS sweatshirts in there. I am 6'-2" and weigh 280lbs, there is no way in hell I am wearing XS, and the invoice has 'sold to' and 'ship to' with my name and address. Ok, second thought, one of my friends or relatives ordered something and had it shipped to me to avoid sales tax, so I call everyone and no one I know ordered it. So I call aeropostal and they tell me my name and address is the only info they have for this order on file, but it was paid for by Amazon's version of paypal so they don't have the payment info only the Amazon confirmation number, so next logical step, call Amazon. So I call Amazon, give them the reference number, and they tell me that the account is under none of my email addresses (I had to give them my email addresses for them to compare), so I said ok, can you at least just check the name on the credit card and tell me if it's mine or not, I don't need to know the name if it's not mine just tell me if it is. They said they can't check the name of the credit card because the account is locked pending investigation of possible fraudulent activity and that I would get a call back within 24hrs. I checked all my credit and debit cards and they look clean, so either they used someone else CC or opened a credit card under my name. Now 2 things, would either aeropostal or Amazon even approve the purchase if the CC info didn't match the ship to info? Second, and probably most troubling, if this was some sort of Freud will those that committed it come looking for their package? I know there are a lot of LEOs on this board that might have seen or heard of similar situations. As always, and help and/or advise is greatly appreciated.

Correct, it affects the manufacturing process. But when the cost to manufacture goes up due to compliance with the regulations who do you think will flip the bill? Increase in cost to serve directly results in the increase of retail prices.

signed

Done. Assembly and Senate

Thanks Ty. Seeing as how there was no sign of over pressure, should I try to increase the charge above the listed max or should I leave well enough alone?

Ok folks, I know it's been a while but I finally got out to the range to try out my reloads and I am a bit confused by my results and i'm hoping the experts on this board can help. First of all let me preface by saying that any inconsistencies in grouping are 90% my fault. And unfortunately I don't have a chrony so velocities are unknown. These are coming out of a 20" 1:8 rifle length .223 wylde barrel. Now here is what I did with my first attempt, all cases trimmed to 1.748 and OAL 2.234, CCI #450 primer, 68gr Hornady HPBT, 8208XBR in 5 different loads, but only 2 loads gave good results 22.6 gr and 23.8 gr. The problem is that with 23.8 gr I was getting better groups at 200yds then I was at 100yds. Also, at 100yds I was getting better groups from cheap 55gr PMC then I was with the reloads. It appears that i'm getting better groups with 22.6 at 100 yds and 23.8 is better at 200 yds. Also, I was getting absolutely no signs of over pressure at 23.8 which is the suggested load maximum fro 8208 XBR. So i'm thinking of going a little higher just to see what happens. 22.6 gr at 100yds, 0.75" groups 22.6gr 200yds, 2" group 23.8 gr at 100 yds, 1.75" group 23.8 gr at 200 yds, 1" group

It might have been 1,00 rounds, I don't remember exactly, it was over a year ago. My point was the price difference depending on what time you go.

Yep, i've seen it done many times. I go in the morning, buy a 500 case of PMC .223 for $240. Come back a few hours later and the same guy is now selling it for $270.

I'm personally skipping this one. Going on Oct 7th weekend, they are promising over 1700 tables. If you want ammo then go on Saturday morning, you'll find the best prices, as prices go up as inventory goes down.
