  1. Does anyone else get scored, or dented ejected casings from their S-308?

     

    I was shooting 150 grain winchester SP. Not exactly 7.62X51 Nato spec.

    Accuracy was great at 100 yards with 8X42 POSP. I'm pleased with this rifle, but

    I am concerned about using these thin brass cartriges.

     

    Thoughts?

  2. Get the extra renter's insurance on the rental car. Last week, I destroyed a 2006 PT Cruiser on I15

    and had to pay 500 bux for my deductable.

     

    If you take a cab from the airport, pay no more than $10 (plus tip, if any) to the south end of the strip.

    $15 - 20 to the north end of the strip, or to Freemont Street.

    Demand that the cabbie DOES NOT drive the strip. The timer will eat your wallet alive.

     

    There is a tram that runs from MGM to the Sahara. $5 per trip, or $15 multipass for the day.

    Free tram from Mandalay Bay to Excalibur.

     

    If you get the rental car, take a trip to the Valley of Fire ($6.00 per car), up northeast of the NASCAR track on I15. Go see the Hoover Dam in Boulder City (Parking still $5?). Prostitution is legal in Nye county, out west.

     

    There's a Wally World and an Albertson's east on Tropicana drive. Buy a case of water and some other beverages, or pay DEARLY at the hotel for your liquid refreshment.

     

    Have fun!

  3. Ala Road Warrior.

     

    Just don't let the action lever rotate up into the web of your hand - bleeds like a mudda (ask me how I know).

     

    NO SHIT!

     

    My dad had to get stitches on Monday for the same thing.

    He fired an old Stevens 12 from the hip, and it opened the action. Unfortunately, it also opened the skin between his thumb and index finger.

     

    10 stitches.

     

    We didn't go to the clinic immediately though. He insisted that we stay so he could practice pistol with his weak hand. Amazing.
