    Damn! I feel like Head light out or all lights out is a normal requirement in SC. I hate to say this in here, but SC is 2nd on my list of worst drivers.... FL is #1!

    I'm inclined to agree. I'm from SC but grew up mostly in FL. Old people drivers, man...

    North Charleston does suck really bad along with down town on a weekend, I do love Charleston and folly beach though.


    TN drivers suck but not quite as bad IMO, I think Old drivers just suck any where and everywhere.

    Yeah man, it just seems like I can handle less and less people as I get older. By the time im 60 I'll be afraid to leave the house because I might run into a mailman

    Yup, I'll gladly pay more to avoid the crowds. It kills me.

    Oh yeah that's me nowadays. I can't wait for swing shift so I can grocery shop during the middle of the work day and avoid as many people as possible.

    We are all different. All have different social avenues.
    I'm super antisocial. Some of us are social butterflies, others not so much.
    I can totally relate to some of the very few I have met in my class..
    However... I do relate all my toyota brothers and sisters on this site.

    True. I can BS with y'all all day long, but outside of here, I'd rather not interact with people.

    Look into SWFA straight 10 power cheap and good or some of the Primary Arms Platinum series scopes. My ULR Rig is going to have a IOR Valdatta Scope they are IMO the best on the market some of them have a 40mm main tube.

    22 inch barrel, 1-8 rate of twist, should do well with 140 plus grain bullets. Gunna test the 140,143,147 factory loads and see what it likes then work a custom one up.

    As far as optics im a snob. All vortex and swarovski. Love my Swarovski binos and have one their scopes on one of my 308s. I get a killer discount on vortex though and for the long range stuff their warranty is hard to beat. Prolly going with a 6x24x50 moa vortex.

    Not sure how much I will get to use it hunting with it here, but out west and shooting on the 1000 yard range here it will put in some work.

    I love savage cause if I get bored or shoot the barrel out I can rebarrel in my garage with a custom barrel with my basic tools and set of go nogo head space guages.

    Goal was to build a cheap 1000k gun that’s accurate and built on the cheap. Never skimp on glass though haha. Not sure what I’m gunna do with it yet. Freaking solid rings are over 100 bucks. It’s a never ending money pit!

    That's high end o_O I can see trijicon for some of their stuff but there are so many that are off the mainstream unless you are into LR, ULR, or are a true german glass snob.

    Dude those SWFA scopes have a colt like following in the 6.5 world. Deff not against em, I just get 50 percent off through vortex and it’s hard to beat their price and warranty.

    Love the Savage's as well. Super easy barrel changes. I have started leaving my Remingtons at home more and more and taking the savages. My only gripe is their damn stocks suck. Tikka is another hidden gem kinda.

    I have a couple of he 10x ones great scopes for the $$$$ you get a lot of glass for what you pay. Their adj power scopes aren't that good I would only get a fixed power. I like vortex ok, you really ought to look into the Primary Arms platinum stuff man they are really going to hit nightforce and Vortex hard. I get the 50% off deal I wouldn't pass that up.

    I am a MIL guy. The only MOA stuff I have is the box std hunting scopes with a duplex reticle and set and forget turrets.

    Stink bombs or pump the smoke off your smoker somehow into them to choke them out

    Yep mine leaves trenches behind her. Funny as hell, but it's a lot of work to get it back to normal. I usually just let her have fun in a garden that needs tilling anyways
