My father taught me that violence solves all problems. He was not a good man. LOL

You mean that you guys don't just take it apart, put it in a smaller box, and label it "pipe wrenches "? I hate more than anything shipping a $10k+ optic off and having to put what it is and the value on it. Shipping NFA is fun also.

The 4.6L engine in the Mustang was bad about engine ticks. It uses a two chain system for the overhead cam. If the chain tensioner gets worn a little, it'll start to tick. Doesn't hurt anything really, but it's anything. After we blew up the engine, I replaced the chains, tensioner, and the clutch when I rebuilt it. I'm not super familiar with Toyota engines, but I'd lean towards something like that.

I've done that a bunch on injectors.

With good ammo, you're going to get 30 to 50 yard runners. That's with the typical supersonic hart/lung shot. Black tips will get you a pass through. 125 Nosler bt is a good bullet and it will stop just under the skin on the off side. 110 V Max will never exit and do a bunch of damage. Nothing will instantly drop unless you have a CNS hit. I probably have around 50ish kills with the 300 blackout/Whisper. Probably witnessed 30-40 more. I Have some subsonic kill videos from when I was just learning the sub game and getting my reputation started, but several are 308 sub kills.

I've put a bunch of 308 projectiles on targets out to 1k with a 20" barrel. A lot were 147 tracers.

Oh no...I've got one better. You can spoof your GPS. Shoot a deer in Russia, White house lawn, or 30k feet over the Atlantic Ocean.

Email them. Keep the email response in your records. That way you don't get into a "The guy on the phone said " argument.

Tags are electronic now. It's done on you phone and gps recorded. You can download paper temporary tags, but they are included when get a license on your phone. You just have to print them off. You are required to "tag before you drag" in TN. I very rarely get a license anymore for normal hunting. I usually hunt on my own land, but if you have the smallest possibility of hunting 1 inch off your property, get a license. It's easy to forget and hunt with a buddy one day on his place without a license.

They are no different than bolt guns conceptually as far as accurizing goes. Once you get a good foundation and a few tools, changing barrel/cal is a 5 minute job.

Varget with 69s H335 with 62gr controlled chaos and 62 gr tsx.

I have a green mountain 18" on a Seekins precision that's an honest 1/2 moa gun. 3 shots are incredibly tight. 5 shots usually just under 1/2. 10 shots in the .600s. All at 100 yards. It's a fantastic rifle. At 750 it gets up to 1.5 moa. If it's not free floating you'll never get it's full potential.

If it's a "temporary" change and you can put it back to the original form 1 condition than you don't have to do anything. If it's permanent, then you can send a letter to the ATF with the updated configuration. The OAL will be with the stock fully extended.

You have to put the lingth in the appropriate box. If you're from TN and never purchase a gun while living in a different state or don't own NFA, than none of your guns are registered. You would have had take extra steps to make that happen. You used to be able to register guns at the courthouse years ago. Doesn't have to be registered to you. After you SBS it, it will be. You may however put it back to its original configuration and have it removed from the registry if you so desire

LOL The guy is a magnet. We walked up on a 200 lb pig that wasn't moving. He grabbed it's ear because he wanted to look at the teeth. Problem was the pig had some life in him. The pig threw it's head up and tried to cut my buddy. He let go and fell backwards. I put two rounds into it point blank. The whole thing took less than 5 seconds. At night, "most" of the time a pig charging is unintentional. They don't know where we are and they are just running in all directions. If a pig is running at us and makes it past a certain point, we can't shoot it and we have let it pass between us. It's happened more than once. Always baby pigs. Large pigs get called out and everyone is shooting at that hog. Except the new guys....their job is to not shoot us. The guide in usually behind that guy with his hands up ready to grab the gun or the guy for safety reasons. We also try and keep new guy between us so they are somewhat boxed in a bit.

Kinda interested in this as well.

Sorry I missed this. The answer is...it depends... I have a buddy that kills all of his domestic pigs with a 22 LR. We are talking 500 ️ lb pigs, but I would call the 22 a great pig cartridge. I've seen 200 lbs hogs taking a solid lung shot from a 200 gr 338 bullet from a 338 fed and have plenty of fight left in him. I do consider the 338 federal to be an excellent hog round. It all depends on how you are hunting. If you are hunting 1 hog, hunting it like a deer, and make a decent head/neck shot than a 300 blackout works fantastic. I doesn't matter how big the hog is if you have proper shot placement. If you are trying to kill as many hogs as possible, it's not great. Especially if you don't have backup. The problem is hitting running hogs. Your just not good at it if you don't practice shooting running things. If we are running multiple shooters, the guys running 5.56 and 300 blackout fill a different role. We all make head/neck shots on our first shot. The 5.56/300 guy have about twice the rate of fire. (Not including the m16) After the first shot, the 5.56/300 guys job is to put rounds on targets. The 308s and 338 put the pigs down and keep everyone safe from pigs running at us. It's mass chaos every time. We have had guy forget to shoot. 30 pigs and a guy never pulls the trigger because so many targets are running in every direction. If you want to use the 300, it'll work in the correct situations. Just not eradication. My buddy had a 300 lbish hog charge him. He was running a 300. He was cranking out rounds as fast as he could and the pig wouldn't go down. After he yelled for a bit and I chuckled a bit, I put a 308 round into it and dropped it in front of him. He never took it again.

You can fill out the form for temporary move. The form can be set up for 1 year at a time. Just send them in every year. Most people don't do it though. I haven't found one case where someone with a form 1 got into any trouble for not having it. You are supposed to fill it out if you move from one house to another across town for all NFA. Guess what.....most people don't do this either. I actually do in that case. Most new NFA people have the fear that every time they take out an ATF regulated gun, people are going to come out of the woodwork and demand you paperwork. In 25 years of NFA not once have I had it happen. Just keep a copy of your forms in every vehicle you own and you'll be good.

Not really loaded. I think that non-Christians sometimes assume everyone they disagree with is a Christian. It's almost like a poke in the chest. A lot of Christians don't realize you can be a good moral person without being a Christian. I've never really understood why some people dislike Jewish people either. I've never met someone that was Jewish that I disliked as a person. However my morality may not be the norm for a Christian or non-Christian and that's okay with me. I will continue to treat people of faith with respect until that person proves to be unworthy of that respect. My Wife happens to be a Christian. I adore and admire her with all my heart, but I just can't believe what I don't believe and I do not have the right to demand She change her beliefs.

Off subject, but how do you guys know someone's a Christian? I'm no one. So is there a secret handshake or something? I guess I've never looked for signs. I have zero issues with someone having religion unless that religion tells them to kill me. Just curious. I hear this a lot.

I have a picture of the thing that wants to try......, but.......uhammm...welll....
