What a scumbag.

I don't have any other words to describe it.

Just out of curiosity, was this malfunctioning .223 Remington ammo sized without the use of a case gauge? Until you realize the purpose of such a tool, it would be very easy to see where someone could run off bulk reloads that fail to chamber correctly. The claim made by Browning GP was false. His ...

Our ammunition is remanufactured to quality standards exceeding that of factory ammunition. In BigJonBoy's case, unfortunately it is apparent that one slipped through (of which, he will be duly compensated for his trouble if he so chooses to). We are not Williams Cartridge. We are professionals who ...

If you're looking for REAAALLY quiet, you can't go wrong with the Aguila Super Colibri. A hand clap is louder. I have a box of those, they're awesome. I just find that they don't cycle manually in any of my autos. :) I just like the CCI's. They seem to print slightly better groups (although not by ...

Personally, I love the CCI CB Longs.

You have to cycle an automatic manually of course, but they are QUIET.

To be honest, if the facilities are really nice, $500 isn't bad.

BigJonBoy, please give our office a call tomorrow: 860-379-2938 If you could e-mail pictures to me as well, that would be fantastic. I'd just like to see the orientation of the split. We do inspect each round, and I am very curious as to how it got through. ithacanut@yahoo.com Thanks, and my apologi...

I'll stop mashing 911 when it's obvious I'm not going to get help I need.

Don't need a license or permit to have a long gun in the vehicle. It would also be none of their buisness what I carry around in my vehicle. At that point I would invoke my 4th admendment rights against illegal searches and seizures. A LEO should not be feared by any means. You give them an inch an...

Actually, a 7.62x39 AR would be kind of fun I suppose. I looked into it some time ago, and it seemed that magazines caused a lot of the issues & other associated problems. The one thing I'm thinking of right now is, how a DI gas system would hold up to corrosive surplus... it seems like it would...

. When I first ran across your opening comments, I replied to them "at face value" , meaning that I assumed that you were a customer that bought a box of "shells" with a defect, and went to the manufacturer to return the defective "shell", and "meet the guys"...

I've noticed that a CV's hood is juuuuusssst about right to lay a rifle over. :twisted:

Browning, with all due respect, I'd have to ask you to provide actual evidence to substantiate that claim. I find it quite rude & utterly unprofessional to slander someone, when you have already shown me that you have virtually no clue exactly how Nutmeg Sporting Cartridge operates. During my vi...
