    Foglights are for fog, not oncoming traffic!
    I bought a box (50rds) of .223 loaded ammo, Berger VLD 90gr bullets.
    I think they're too long for the twist on my barrel.
    Anybody want to buy them?
    $30 plus shipping.

    Don't know....Haven't shot any.
    I don't even know if they fit in an AR mag.
    They are the shit for someone that wants to reaaaalllllly reach out and touch.
    May need to single-load in an AR.

    I shoot 77gr amazingly well.
