Thanks man, its been a good while lol. Nice to see some familiar names :)
And yea, pretty much any straight wall case big bore would be good to go, sounds like youre pretty good to roll with the 458 winmag.
Im waiting for the marlin 45-70 dark series to be in stock...
My vote goes to 45-70...more than enough power, pretty common round, good options for platforms, and has a pretty smooth recoil (in my opinion, anyway)
Edit: easy to reload as well (straight wall case). So shooting more is cheaper. Also since theres almost n overbore pressure on the round the...
this will be my last post on this topic...while we have been talking about a pound saved and blah blah blah...lets really examine this, and try to get the info straight here...
jester, since you seem to be the one posting all the info regarding this...can you explain how a 13" rail is just...
im not really sure why where i live now really matters...but if you really want to bring it up, at least i could actually buy this 'new' ar if i wanted to...for those stuck in MD still this is pretty much just a hypothetical day dreaming thread...sorry.
when the topic was made about the rail...
i swear you crack me up man...:lol2:
you keep mentioning hikes and stuff...unless this is SHTF, im not taking my AR hiking, it will be a boltie .308 which will be considerably heavier than even my AR let alone this 'revolutionary' ultralight...secondly, if you are going on a 20 mile hike, the...
perhaps...but considering that 2 people were kick out, and their working on getting rid of the mag limit seems like their making up for it...
at least i could go out right now and buy anything i want and walk out with it, while carrying...ill take that over MD any day lol
edit: hey, for those...
such as? we are talking what...a pound on the generous side in terms of weight shaved total? i would also guess that is with a standard carbine buffer (no h2 or h3) and obviously a bare bone rifle...but lets just go with it.
less weight = less recoil dampening = more dependency on a...
just another thing i notice, and something that may benifit you...i notice your stock is pretty far out...are you a big dude? if not, changing your grip to either a bcm gunfighter or a umbrella grip 23 would allow you to use a tighter, closer stock and cheek placement. they have a more vertical...
i cant stand breaching chokes/brakes...they just look silly to me lol. my 870 came with one, i only keep it on there to protect the choke threads so when i finally get some real chokes i can get rid of it lol
another thing that is odd (for me) is that it makes the 870 feel much longer in my...
its funny to me how you seem to assume ignorance on my part, yet youre yet to even once mention bulkin. furthermore as you ramble on and on with the same copy/paste posts you fail to realize that there are very, very few designs that have come from just one person...even JMB had help and used...
