    What's your 223/5.56 "zero'd" for and why?

    AR-HBAR is zero'd at 100. I'm good holding 'center mass' out to 300+ yds. (If it'll hit inside of a paper plate at those distances, I'm good to go.) Remington 799 in .223 is zero'd at 100, also. Either one = 25 yds to 300 yards I'm gonna be either dead on or +/- 3 inches.

    What will your next handgun be?

    Glock G30SF. Maryland's 7 day waiting period is 5/7th complete. I figure this Wednesday is day 8. After that, I'm looking for a Colt Combat Commander.

    Reloading 5.56 w/ Dillon 550

    I size all of my .223 brass on my RCBS RockChucker, then remove the lube by running through a tumbler with 'old' media. Then, trimming duties are handled on a dedicated drill press with a Lyman drill press trimmer. After deburring and primer pocket cleaning, it's on to the Dillon RL-550B...

    Glock 23, 9mm .22 Barrels?

    I don't own one, personally, but, the LoneWolf 9mm conversion barrels are incredibly good, according to the users across the street, at another forum. I came verrrrrry close to buying a G23, recently. I came home with a G19 in 9mm, only because the dealer found one in stock. (Originally...

    best recoil pad

    Limbsaver. Remington R3 is made by Limbsaver. Same/same. I can't imagine what the Cabela's pad is likel, if the Limbsaver is considered to be concrete. I have to find a Cabela's.

    What to buy before July 1?

    S&W mdl 625, or mdl 625JM. I could easily change that to a mdl 25-2 (I think it is) S&W in .45acp.

    What if the only handguns you could own are revolvers?

    StrawHat. . . That S&W mdl 25 is GORGEOUS!!!!! Thanks alot. Now I've got drool all over my shirt. Honestly, I LIKE IT!!!!!! Is that a 4" or 3-1/2" barrel??? I can see a spot in my gunsafe where one of those would rest, nicely. For me, if I were only allowed revolvers - My S&W...

    "Duffle bag" for rifle.

    One of my shooting buddies uses this very item when he goes to his beach condo. He carries several rifles in this 'golf cover' and no-one knows the difference. He heads out with it, goes to his range and comes back. . . no-one has any idea that he wasn't playing golf. No idea.

    New XD convert....dumped Beretta 92FS

    I like the looks of the XD, but, I haven't shot one, yet. I have a Beretta 92FS that was made in '89. It was a terminal case of the 'Got to have that' syndrome. Paid $300.00 for it, NIB. I've fired it. . . maybe 250 rounds. Maybe a little less. The action is buttery smooth. Slick as...
