The only thing I really need more of is 12ga and .22. Don't have much .30-06 but I don't go through much.

 

By the way, I wouldn't worry about the Super X .22 ammo Jerry, I'm going thru a box right now. The only kind that's really bad is Remington .22 in the 550 box Walmart *used to* have. In 200 rounds I had 4 shells break at the back when fired and spray hot gas in my face. Wanna buy 3000 rounds of it? :lol:

If you happen to come across the 30-06 ammo you may as well play it safe and pick some up. That may be the caliber that saves your life one day. Better to have some of everything.

Where's the best place online to find 5.56? Seems like it's more rare around here than .22 is.

 

 

Try Lohmanarms.com. I bought 1500 rounds just as the freakout happened and even though he was out at the time he still honored the old price on his website when he got some in even though the prices were increased. Brian was great to work with and kept me up to date with phone calls and emails about how my order was coming along.

Thanks for the tip wurgs.

 

And yeah I love my .30-06, I'm going to pick up some more ammo, a bipod, and some flip caps if I can find decent ones. Right now I have some innertube to cover my glass :lol:

I've read mixed reviews online. Some saying the Winchester super x work great and some say they are bad for semi autos. I will find out next trip up to the club soon... I gotta take another trip to a gun store further out that is not as known as Wal-Mart.

Its not to terrible here in north dakota, I did pick up a 12ga for blasting until the frenzy blows over though, and in the last week, I've picked up 440 rounds of 5.56mm at 10$ a box of 20 55gr fmjs. Picked up 270 of shot gun ammo, and between 22lr, .223, .40, 270wsm, and .243 I had about 1600 rounds stock piled already, my biggest thing is the cold, sitting at a range with 1.5-2 feet of snow and freezing temps are no good.

 

Places I've bought ammo from in the past few weeks - Walmart, Gander Mountain, and a few LGS's.

We have tons of shotgun locally as well as quite a bit of .22lr. A couple weeks ago I was at walmart and everything but .38 special, .45 colt, .22, 12g, and 20g, was sold out. Now the .38s and .45s are gone too.

No problem with either of the rifles you listed. If you go onto the AR forums.. AR15.com or M4carbine.com they would shred either for the lack of MIL SPEC this and that ect.. just learn the ins and outs and enjoy shooting.. id have a .223 wylde chamber for best accuracy.. with wanting a 5.56mm second. you can shoot the cheaper mil ammo outta both of those chambers.. just not .223 chamber.

Got that phone call. Bought the Bushmaster, Now I have 2 ar's.... lol Have a few buddies looking, sure I can sell the DPMS for what I paid. What are the odds? Oh and I bought 100 rounds of Winchester 5.56 at Walmart today. Must be my lucky day.

You can probably sell your DPMS for double. Idiots around are paying twice the original price or more for ARs. There have been some $800-$1000 ARs going for 2000-2500. Crazy!

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By tararebecca · Posted

      I agree, simplicity and reliability matter more as vehicles get more complicated. A V8 work truck option with fewer electronic features and a stronger warranty would definitely appeal to a lot of buyers who use their trucks for real work. Customizing it with trusted outfitters is often the best way to get exactly what you need.webcrimsNY

      2026 Sierra 1500 Denali - Sound upgrade?

      By artistemorbidity · Posted

      I’ve heard similar complaints from newer vehicles where the factory “premium” systems don’t always live up to expectations. A good installer should be able to improve the sound without turning it into a bass-heavy setup. I’d look into upgrading the front speakers, adding a quality DSP amplifier, and possibly improving sound deadening first—those changes usually make a much bigger difference than just adding a subwoofer. Hopefully someone local can recommend a reputable installer in the Las Vegas/St. George area.

      Do you remember that Harley Davidson was more successful (solvent) when it produced about 60% of the market demand (by design) and forced wait times of up to three years? Even when your turn came around it was, "Take what we are giving you or move to the back of the line and start over". HUGE markup's were 'normalized' and dealer killed. 40% markup and no floor plan? What's not to love? Greed will kill them yet. They have surplus production and customer base is tanking. And still they think nosebleed pricing will work.

      The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.

      Injector update

      By CamGTP · Posted

      Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.
