Should be better for gun owners, certainly way better than the only other real choice we had. Anyone shoot a .218 bee? Last edited by ~ADC~; 11/14/24 07:43 PM. Reason: seems like a better route to go. Thanks FHF! www.iowatrapperstalk.com

I thought we were having small earth quakes the last couple days, here its just coming from D.C. when Trump announces another cabinet member. There comes a point liberalism has gone too far, we're past that point.

Paid 750.00 for the pair, as I was leaving the seller said take this, which turned out to be an old beer case full of brass and loaded ammo. Over a 1000 rounds plus 100s of primed brass.
