I know you're probably squeezing pennies, but if you're going to put that nice of a rig together, I'd give serious consideration to being patient and then going Mcmillan or even Manners.

Any particular reason you went with that instead of something that throws bullets with better BC numbers?

I'm planning on shooting F-Class target rifle, which has a caliber restriction to either the .308 or the .223. I'll be slinging a very good bullet out there thought with a listed BC of over .550 (Berger 185 Hyrbid) launched by either H4350 or possibly IMR 8208 XBR.

It's always a possibility. This project will take some time to put together.

So does it have to be .308 Winchester or can it be another cartridge that fires a .308 caliber bullet?

Gotcha. Just checked the rules. Looks like if you go F class Open, you can shoot any caliber you want.

Rex, for the love of God, make a youtube video of that big ass shotgun barrel. Shoot with a regular barrel, then switch to that barrel, and edit them together so I can really hear the difference. "BANGbangBANGbangBANGbang" like that.

I'm being dead serious here.

I'll redownload the editing software (Adobe Premier CS-6) to my PC and get out and do the video when I get a day off from work.

You're being kind.

I've had it almost a year and I still hate it. Good software should not be counter-intuitive. I would say it is less than user friendly.

I hate it also! However, their doing it to make your PC more like the iPhones. So I would assume the youngens prob like it.

Avian X Wood Ducks.

They have a long ways to go to prove themselves, but I've never seen a better decoy come out of a box...

Another hi point carbine. Older model but got it for half what they are bringing on gunbroker/armslist, and it came with a flash hider, laser and 4 mags. I already have a new model but could not pass this deal up....

They nailed the iridescence on the back. Too bad that your chances of killing one around here after opening weekend is zero, or I'd probably own some.

Is it just for the slickness, or does it add a layer of protection as well? I would assume it will also fill small leaks and such?

It helps get over stumps and such with ease but all it is is a silicone epoxy with some really fine powder and makes it super slick

As far as for leaks I wouldn't use it to stop them but it might work
