I'd start with the minimum load data for 75 grain bullets and work up.

I will readily admit to being one of those!!!!

Exactly! Were I a LEO, I would strive to purge trash like this from my ranks, so that the entire LEO community didn't have a bad name. I just can't see condoning this type behavior. I sure don't know how one could defend it. Teachers do the same thing. I've seen teachers stick up for other teachers who have done terrible misdeeds. If things like this are defended and not dealt with, it soils the entire profession. Maybe it's a union thing to try and protect the few who should not be there.

Something we should do all year; not just this week. Thanks for reminding us.

As a matter of fact, I do care about the good things leo's do. As a person who is taxed to financially conpensate them, I expect it. I do not wish to fund things that go on like what is represented in the video. Had the video not been recorded, I firmly believe this would have been swept under the rug and nothing done about it. How often do you suspect this happens and isn't reported? I meet people in my job regularly that need a dose of what that burglery suspect received, but I have enough professionalism and respect for other human beings to refrain from beating them without just cause. Also, I don't remember posting anything that protrays all police as bad. I do, however, believe that the abuse of power among them is more than a few isolated incidents.

We see near daily examples of this type thing happening. How many instances of this stuff would you need to see to believe that perhaps they aren't isolated instances, but a systemic problem?

One inch is considered "intermediate range"? What is close range? Inside his body?

I'd love to have a bayonet for an m1 Carbine.

Or green and ask $250!

I shoot and carry 230 grain ball ammo.

Something's up, or else it would be a lead national story. I'm curious what a "large caliber" rifle will turn out to be. 50 BMG? Rigby double?

I don't cast, and the lead bullets I've fired left the gun nasty. I'm sure it was the lube. I don't have a problem with that. I was curious how the OP felt about it. I often read on forums where people are asking for a "clean powder". I've yet to fire anything in a gun that didn't leave some trace of something on/in the gun.

I'm sure the name Richard Venola will ring a bell to those of you who read gun magazines. I am anxious to hear the details of this incident. http://blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com/valleyfever/2012/05/richard_venola_editor_of_guns.php

I am of the opinion that a shotgun should have two barrels.

If you were concerned about a powder being dirty, what did you think of the cast bullets?

I'd say that's right!

Somebody's gotta bust his chops now and again!

Kind of like asking if you'd prefer a marrige with Rosie Odonnell, or a threesome with two supermodels of your choosing......I'm going with the Mustang. Is this a trick question?

More than 20 years ago, I bought a large framed, blue Taurus revolver in 357 Magnum. I hadn't even heard the name before I saw it at an auction. It had a beautiful blue finish, everything was fitted almost perfectly. The action was butter smooth, a great trigger, and it shot really well. In my opinion, it was every bit the equal of a Smith and Wesson. I later sold it for some unknown reason. I sort of wish I had it back today. The new Tauruses I see today have poor triggers, actions, and sub par finishes. That's what turns me off. I'll not buy a gun with a gritty, unbearable trigger, nor one with an ugly fit and finish. These are indicitive of whats inside the gun. I'll pass.

Mine says "Leupold" instead of "Amazon, but I use the same tool. I'd only use water if a liquid was needed. NEVER take a scope apart!!!!!! What kind of scopes are they? It may just be the scopes.

I'll let it go when is is no longer a moderator, or stops acting like a child. Looks to me like he's on the internet. Short of that; I can't tell where he is.

No...you don't. What you do is agitate to the point where someone says something they should not have said. It is the equalivent of a police officer at a red light inviting you to race, and then writing you a ticket for speeding.

I agree.

Me too!

Once again, Daniel, I would submit that it is in poor taste, poor judgement, and just in bad form for a moderator to engage in a theological argument. I've seen you do this several times. You'll antagonize until you can flaunt your authority. We all have opinions, and I'm as interested in yours as much as anyone else's. The difference comes when you can ban someone who becomes snotty, while you are able to do so without recourse.
