Have you ever heard people say that 308 Winchester and 7.62 NATO is the same thing?

It is a nice round. 7.62 is .30 cal right? There may be some similarities can't really say for sure as I've been out of the hobby for some time now. Back when I used to plink a lot people always said that .6mm and .243 were the same too. In fact there is big contingent that claim Winchester killed the .6mm with the .243. I killed a ton of critters with my .6mm and it was .25moa with Remington Core lock .80 grain soft points as close as 10yds away out to about 450yds or so.

I was hunting with a guy once that was carrying an SKS in 7.62x.39 and I had my
T. C. contender in .223. I was curious about the difference between the 2 so we shot a 6" thick tree for a test. My .223 round stopped about a third of the way into the trunk and the Chinese round went in and blew out the other side. The exit damage was impressive. Would not want to be hit with that at all.

I use xm80/7.62X51 149gr for my SR762 like I use XM193 5.56 55 gr or XM855 5.56 62gr for my SR556. The .223 and .308 winchester are commercial version with little less pressure.

When the big war break out the only thing going to be left around is the mil ammo, so get use to it. I can plink with it, hunt with it, and know I can kill with it.

Yeah, the Chinese used steel in their ammunition as a cost cutting measure, but it ended up being a great penetrating round. I think the ATF banned that Chinese stuff from import many years ago.

The Italians are great engineers and their machining skills are some of the best in the world. I had an Uberti single action revolver in .44 mag that LOVED 44special. It was well made, simple, accurate and reliable. A good gun for not a ton of cash. I used it as a humane means to put down critters I had wounded with the first shot.

The when all shit goes to hell. The only thing that will be plentiful and lying around will be the military calibers. 5.56x45., 7.62.x51, 9mm, .45, 12gal, and 50 cal in america. On dead folks with that help expression on their dead mug all you will find is plenty of cellphones last dialed to 911 playing that recording help will be there shortly.



If you happened to be in a foreign place which it will be hard to get back to america those 5.56x45 nato, an 7.62 type eastern bloc stuff and 9mm might be laying around. Life is tough getting back to america.


The simpler your gun is maintain and operate will be the guns to have. Don't get them pretty looking, tons of features and to many parts guns, need exotic magazines and calibers, you don't have time.

My idea guns would have either the rugged mini 14 (5.56/223) or mini 30 (7.62), the any mossberg 500 (12 gal), and any colt 1991 (.45 acp). I will be shooting and scooting.

Federal Premium makes a 38 Special +P+ for police that still have 357 Magnum revolvers. Some SWAT teams use revolvers through their ballistic shields since pistol slides can get snagged through the gun port.

Anyway the 38 +p+ can't be used in 38 Special revolvers rated for just +p ammo, just 357 Magnum revolvers.

I remember years ago when a company was making a small carrying case that looked like a beeper. They were for carrying cash and credit cards because muggers didn't care about beepers as they were worthless if stolen. Then the Washington Post stepped in because somewhere in New Jersey a thug was carrying a NAA
mini revolver in one so they went off the deep end and assumed the beeper and pistol were somehow one product and ran an editorial entitled, "Ban the Beeper Gun" and demanding specific legislation. Another example of editorial stupidity by the leftist media. They'll even ban things that don't exist.

1) send them money. they have a small arsenal and will threaten you if you want your ammo.

2) they have none of it in stock - obviously by their rag tag photo. if they actually do ship - they are ordering it at 1/2 price because your too lazy to google it. and by the time they hit you up with shipping , your paying 2x what the real distributors charge. some of it from afganistan, the rest joe retipped in his basement. not new.

When you go to a gun range, do you bring your own gun? *question for anyone who knows that answer* They don't just 'hand out' guns to use, do they? Checking with this gun range would be a simple way to prove he hasn't surrendered his arms.

He visited with a gun of his own anytime since sometime late last December, there's confirmation. Thanks for nothing, Henrico PD.


Black Creek Gun Club will be getting a call/subpoena.
