I guess that's a valid point, but I also wasn't saying they did a bad job. It's still as accurate as I would expect from a 700. Then again, I also wouldn't have expected the stock to be pushing up on the barrel when brand new. So while they may have bore sighted it, they did it under poor conditions....hence the original complaint. If anything, it further validates my claim.

Titegroup is a great powder for 9mm..highly sought after....are you certain that you didn't skip a case when dropping the powder? Get distracted at all? If it only happened to one case, I would think it's lack of powder.

So I went to the range yesterday to get somewhat of a benchmark....couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. Took a ton of ammo to finally find my shots, which were hitting about 2.5ft left at 100yds. This is somewhat my fault because I should have boresighted it. What can I say, I expected Remington to at least get it close so their customers didn't think they bought a POS. Once it was zero, I was hitting quarter sized groups no problem.

I can't help but laugh at those just discovering prime...I've been enjoying its wonders for a very long time. However, I spend probably upwards of $2k/yr on Amazon and picked up on that giant message that nagged you every time you went to the site, suggesting you join Prime.

Yes they did fix the magazines. They found that they were collapsing busy enough during the cooling process from molding, that they were jamming the follower. They now re-heat after molding, at a lower temperature, and expand the magazine so it doesn't do it anymore. They also recommend a process to do it at home.

Will update when I get the knob installed, but here's the process.

So I just bought one from the Evil Dick's on Tuesday. ...308 ADL with a 3-9x40 scope. Out the door I paid $476 with a box of ammo and get a $50 mail-in rebate. Anyone that knows me, knows I can't leave well enough alone. I already took it apart to check clearance between the barrel and stock. Found that it was a applying a significant upward pressure. I shaved it down a lot and fixed that issue. Next on the list is grinding down the bolt handle so I can install a new bolt knob. This knob must have been built for a hobbit. I might pillar bed the stock until I can afford a new chassis...always easier to practice on the stuff that's not going to stay there anyway... I'll update as I go along

I have enough food to keep me and my wife feed 3 meals and 1 dessert per day for about 6mo...after that...shit happens.

Sure. Stockpiles are good for the initial shock. Thieves, marauders, and truly desperate people WILL find those stockpiles. They will either perish from being defended against, or the others will from trying to defend. Regardless, only the strong survive. So as much as you think the area would be overpopulated and the food source would run out, I think that the human population would rapidly decrease. Millions in the first 6mo of a long term event.

That's not the direction I was going with that....

Food? I horde guns and ammo so I dont need to horde food. Duh

NJ laws state body armor is only illegal while used in conjunction with another crime. Those shooters cut ar500, rhino lined plates are about 7lbs each

The gauze are much better than the powder...nothing like having tiny gravel like pebbles being pulled out of a clotted wound.

And then there's the infamous "throw it over the wall"

Then you've been at the right place at the right time lol. I once had an RO tell me I couldn't shoot because I didn't have a chamber flag for my AR. After telling him that wasn't a posted rule, he told me not to come back without one. I also was yelled at for doing a 2 shot sequence for "rapid firing". Said that wasn't permitted and I could be thrown out for it. So I asked him how he could tell it was me, and how he could tell it just wasn't two shooters shooting consecutively (he walked up the hill to give me a hard time. I'm also younger). He gave me shit for being a "wiseass" and left.

I think at this point, it's just for aesthetics, and eliminating parts (wiper hose).

Yea I'm not sure what pbkid is taking about with no RO's giving a hard time....there are some serious range Nazi's there that just need a bitching outlet. Quite honestly the only reason I go there is because it's usually empty, and very cheap membership. Almost every time I go, there is barely any wood to hang targets at the pistol range, and no chairs at the rifle range. I'm saving little by little for a membership at a nicer range...you don't find muzzle sweeping at a place like OBRPC.

Boom

What end cap? The wiper hose on the end of the nut isn't sealing anything. Something like soaking each screw set with silicon before installing would seal it.

Start with buying a Glock, then go back and check your groups. I load 4.6gr of W231 under a 124gr fmj @ 1.055"

Why not put the screws from the inside out and have them counter sunk? Any interference with the rollers if you do that?

Remember the old Loli Pop commercials that had that popping noise you make with your mouth? Sounds like that....when the case is empty that is.

I guess whenever a forum member has a good idea to improve the lifestyle of shooting, he/she should keep to themselves and not try to share... If you don't like the "advertisement" than move on and don't read. What does it matter to you if he is a forum vendor? Do you benefit monetarily?

I know sometimes it's tough to read me and my humor...you'd know better if I ever bumped into you at EFGA, which I'm surprised I never have...I'm pretty much a know everything, wise-ass that can fix anything and everything, with a sharp memory for priceless threads waiting to be risen from the dead.

870 Tacticool. Got the one with the XS sights for 2 reasons...I don't like bead, and they had it on the shelf...haven't shot it yet though. As for testing before modding, I'm not trying to build a super operator high speed shotgun. I'm asking more about the common problems that get fixed by swap. Like the extractor and follower...as for a warranty..that was voided the SECOND I purchased it.
