"You're not ready for SHTF if you don't reload" MYTH!
Yes. I can open the door to my gun room. People are missing the point of my original post. It's not about cost or accuracy or any of the other points brought up. Reread the original post.

You are missing the point. Reread my initial post.

"You're not ready for SHTF if you don't reload" MYTH!
So, you are reusing your primers, bullets and powder, too?

"You're not ready for SHTF if you don't reload" MYTH!
I They are even better off because they don't have to take the time to reload!

"You're not ready for SHTF if you don't reload" MYTH!
I'm in no ways dissing reloading. If you like to do it, more power to you. For a serious bench shooter, it's a must. But I'm talking about guns that would be used in a bad situation. AKs, ARs, etc. These folks are somehow implying people who don't reload will be SOL when the SHTF and it makes no sense whatsoever.

"You're not ready for SHTF if you don't reload" MYTH!
So I've seen this sentiment here and on many other gun forums. "If you don't reload, you aren't properly prepping!" Now, I don't reload for a few reasons: I have carpal tunnel syndrome in both hands which makes fiddling with very small items (no penis jokes, please )for any length of time miserable. Secondly, I'd rather do something else with my free time. That said, if you enjoy reloading, that's great. So I'd like any who adhere to the "If you aren't reloading, you aren't ready for the SHTF!" types to answer the following questions: #1. Why are 1000, 5000, or 100,000 sets of brass, projectiles, primers and powder better than the same amount of factory loaded rounds? #2. In the unlikely event the S really does HTF do you think reloading components are going to be easier to find than loaded ammo?

Need Quick Feedback Please for an auction expiring in 2 hours
Get yourself a Dirty Harry Model 29. Mine w. the 8 3/8" barrel is a hoot to shoot w. full power loads. Sure it kicks a bit but that's part of the fun. But the recoil is nothing like a S&W .500... .44 Specials feel like bunny farts.

Help Advise wanted on 6.8 spc
This is BS that I hear all over gun forums. Why are 1000, 5000, or 100,000 sets of brass, projectiles, primers and powder better than the same amount of loaded rounds? In the unlikely event the S really does HTF do you think reloading components are going to be easier to find than loaded ammo?

*Accidental* GSW at Monmouth County Rifle and Pistol
I prefer the term Negligent Discharge if it's due to shooter error. Accidental if it's a malfunction of the gun. In any case, I hope the guy/gal is OK.

Midway has bcg's now. !!!!!!!
Hopefully not from the better manufacturers. I've been looking for the past two months for a good BCG (Daniel, LMT, etc.) to no avail!

Gone. According to reviews, they are of questionable quality.

CTD has 7.62
Screw them. They haven't received a dime from me since 2008 and never again will.

Independence Ammunition 5.56x45mm NATO 55 Grain M193 Case of 500 (25 Boxes of 20) Site Down - $219.99
I've never used their 5.56. But have used some of their handgun rounds. It was pretty dirty stuff and it seemed a bit underpowered. I don't recall any failures to fire, but it's been a few years since I used it.

NC Gun Show: Shottie Accidental Discharge
Seriously? Friggin idiots. Unload it before casing it. And DON'T touch the friggin trigger even if you think it's unloaded.

Thoughts about trading my built lower
But it on gunbroker w. no Buy It Now option. See what the market will pay for it.

Starting my noobie build
A two piece gas block solves that problem. And to the OP, good luck finding a top notch (DD, LMT, etc.) BCG or bolt! I've searching for the last month for a build!

Scope suggestion from the experts
For 300 yards, you can get a decent scope for $500. If you want to move to longer distances later, spend the extra coin now. $1000 buys you a lot of glass these days. Much more than it did 10 years ago. I'm a huge Vortex fan. I think Vortex and Sightron give you the most scope for the $$ these days. There are a lot of others in the 1K range that compete, too. The Vortex Viper PST collection has several scopes under and right around 1K For a little more coin, you are getting into lower end (and "lower end" is VERY relative here) Nightforce scopes. http://www.amazon.com/NightForce-Precision-Benchrest-Illuminated-Riflescope/dp/B002YF78GI/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1358473537&sr=8-4&keywords=nightforce+scope
