My IQ dropped ten points in the first 10 seconds
I clicked on a link that another blogger had posted and it took me to a Progressive talking about the Lindsay Clancy trial. The Progressive identifies as "a non-practicing White".
Sharia Law enclaves in Michigan
I am willing to consider the possibility. Presumably, that means that victims (or their families) can amputate the right hand of shop-lifters from those communities and castrate rapists.
Q: What do you call a first-offender from Dearborn?A: "Lefty".
A: "Squeal O'Neil" or "Squeaky" or "Mickey Mouse", your choice.
Jonesing for a 6.5mm Creedmoor
I don't need another firearm.
I do have the dies to reload this caliber.
One of the Creedmoor's selling points is its mild recoil. The Ammo.com comparison claims that the .308 Win generates 50% more recoil energy than the Creedmoor. Lower recoil from "factory ammo" is a major selling point when introducing kids to shooting.
Maybe I can talk Handsome Hombre into buying one.
Inflation
Another consideration is that firearms hold value better than most other items I could purchase. Inflation driven by fuel prices is accelerating. And it isn't just at the fuel-pump. Many of our gadgets come from eastern Asia and they are being slammed by oil availability MUCH more severely than we are. Low availability drives up price of production and it will get passed along.
Hold onto your shorts, we are likely to be in for a wild ride.
HH could use one as a Christmas present!
ReplyDeleteIf you're interested in reduced recoil, I've used H4875 powder to load some reduced or youth loads in the past. H4875 is unique in that you can easily reduce the load to 60% of max and it is still safe.
ReplyDeleteIf I'm remembering it right, I loaded it in a 243 Win, and according to the book the velocity from dropped from about 2900 to 2100fps. A 243 doesn't have much recoil to begin with, but the recoil did drop. The zero also dropped an inch or two at 100 yds. so I didn't have to change anything.
Those dingalings are laughable. Imagine the hubris of seeking to change thousands of years of language.
ReplyDeleteJoe, I've been seeing lots of lightly used 6.5 Creed arms on the market. I think it due to hordes of users chasing the next big thing. That happened to be 6.5 Creedmore starting about ten years ago. Now those safe queens are flooding the market.
I have enough calibers as it is. But if I were to want another rifle, I would go with a flat shooting 7mm.
The 6.5 Creedmoor gets a lot of hate online. I don't understand why. It's a terrific rifle. I guess it's the same as arguing about gas engines.
