    Biden came across as a smug condescending jerk. Everytime he made a stupid face I wanted to punch the TV.

    2012 Weight loss thread

    A common mistake with dieting is not eating often enough. You really should be eating at least 5 times a day - smaller portions of course but more frequently. I took 23 lbs off in 3 months by eating small meals/snacks more often - 6 times a day for me - 3 balanced meals, and 3 small snacks - mostly non-fat yogurt or fruit. I
  4. Because "Husein's" (Hussein) college record would help determine what kind of president he would be? Does it matter if he has a Master's or Ph.D. or a J.D.? I thought the point was that he wasn't born here, not that he didn't go to school here. Or are you concerned about his grades? I remember your quote, "I would much rather have Hillary in the White House than this fool." As much as libertard as you may think I am, I, like many Americans, consider myself a raging moderate. Even I couldn't countenance Hillary. Geez. School and medical records - not important Tax records - are important got it. Thanks. Tax records are only important to one prove Romney made a ton of money which only futhers the financial class warfare (bogus reason) or two to prove he filed them illegally in which case there is a department of the government called the IRS that not only has access to them but also has the power to audit them and prosecute him to the fullest extent of the law if anything illegal was done. So, He made a ton of money, he filed his tax returns in accordance with current tax code why are we entilted to know more?...give one reason why he should he release more returns other than to demonize him for being financially successful and to further the finanical class warfare. Last time I checked it's not a crime to make a ton of money just ask the nanny state do gooder mayor micheal bloomberg - net worth$25 Billion. more concerned about telling you what size soft drink you can order than real issues.

    We Lost one of the good ones

    http://www.azcentral.com/news/articles/2012/09/19/20120919cochise-county-sheriff-larry-dever-dies-in-car-crash.html Very sad. Be reminded to drive with caution while in the field.
  6. There are definitely a lots of differences in opinions and experiences with the 3 groove barrels. I did a lot of research and found more favorable comments/experiences almost 2 to 1 to yours. In the end, I decided to trust the recommendations of the barrel maker and rifle builder I chose. Here’s to hoping my results/experiences are more favorable than yours. If in the end I have the same results as you it will just give me a reason to do another one.
  7. Since you are shooting a 160 grn I'm assuming you are shooting a 7mag...at 600 yards you may not have the velocity to open a TSX properly. It's my understanding it requires 1600 ft/sec or more to get the bullet to expand properly. Some have stated as high as 1800 ft/sec is required.

    What's your favorite binocular power/size?

    Glad to hear the entrepreneurial is alive and well. Don't forget about the lens coatings they are what make the big guy glass so great.

    Hunting Technology. How much is enough?

    Looks to me that your brother found quite a hunting Gizmo - a game finding, game cleaning and game hauling gizmo...I need to find out where I can get one of those cheap.
  11. Be careful there you may end up with an unwanted visit from the Men in Black Suits
  12. Thanks, I'll do some research on them.
  13. I will take you up on the H1000. load up a few and see if it has any potential. I'm using the 4831sc in my 300wsm so I will also see if it has any potential.
  14. Having the rifle built. I has a 25" barrel w/ 8" 3 groove twist.
  15. Thanks for the feedback. Not a fan of the rapid expansion/explosive bullets like Bergers. Much prefer the bonded ones with controled expansion. I couldn't find a hornady hunting bullet in the 140 gr .264 that had a BC as high as what you said. Saw one that wasn't recommended for hunting. Which bullet were you referencing? I would like to take a look at it. Based on all my reading .264 Win Mag shines with the slower burning powders. The H4831 is at the faster end for this cartridge and all my load data shows that loads with that powder only has about a 75% load density. Not really sure if that matters but I prefer the load density to be at or above 85% mark.

    7mm mag

    I had a similar issue with one of my rifles. had a smith polish the chamber and it fixed the issue...no more stuck cases.
  17. Don't give up on Danner too quickly but by all means stay away from the ones made overseas (molded soles) they are total junk. I have a pair of the light hikers and love them. They were tough to break in but they hold up real well and they a breathable so comforatable in our heat. http://www.amazon.co...c_df_B002OSY0D4

    Good luck with achieving your weight loss goal. I'm down 23lbs in the last 4 months and looking for about 5 more before a friends elk hunt. Cut down on carbs, increase the protien intake and get as much exercise as the body will allow. With the ankle issues you should look the pool--if you don't have one join the Y great way to get a low impact workout.
  20. Stock is sold. Nikon scope is Sold. Last time to the top before I post an another site. Thanks to all that have looked.
