How much ammo you keep around?


Well, I'd say I have about 7-8000 rounds of 7.62x39, Cheap shooting.
The SKS's are crude looking, simple yet effective for what they are
but have some really neat features you don't find on about anything
else, like a chrome lined bore (fights corrosion) a bayonet that is
more than a toad sticker, it can be pressed into the ground and used

I have over 3000 rd of 5.56 (223) and at least 1000 rd of 357, 44, and
45 in each caliber, and I'm not sure but I think I have about 1500 in .
303 Brit. and about 500 is 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser. I'm not sure Harry,
but I'd have to see what I've got in 30-06, .308, .30 carbine and .
243, not counting various various shotgun shells.

Good grief! I thought it was only me.
I bought a 12 pack of socks from Costco in the fall and already a number of
them are in the trash with some others showing small holes in the heel area.
I blame it on the loose fitting, slip-on style duck shoes that I'm forced to

Toyota opens SUV plant in Ontario


Despite slumping North American sales, Toyota officially opened a new
production facility in Woodstock, Ontario on Thursday.


It's predominantly an assembly operation as are all North American
foreign
vehicle plants. I was a supplier to the auto industry for 30 years, and
in
fact was involved with this operation while it was still a cow pasture,
I
believe it was called "CAMI" while it was developed, strangely, with the
aid
of GM of Canada,ironically now itself out to pasture.


No more than 25 to 30% of the "content" is domestic - the rest is Asian.
If
it makes you feel better, the Korean vehicles "built" in North America
are
less than 10% domestic content.


Hey, what the hell, you can always work at Walmart!

The ones she bought were just trash - probably Chinese.
Nothing to do with her shoes. Getting hard to find good socks.
Reminds me - last year in a Florida flea market I saw a 3-pair bundle
of socks for 5 bucks. Long heavy duty winter work socks.
We were getting "Florida mementos" for the kids.
I bought them for my son who mechanics in a garage that gets cold.
Wife said "Hey, I was thinking of this keychain shaped like a gator."
I said "No, he'll love these socks." He did.
She still doesn't get it.

"Cami" is in Ingersoll Ontario, stupid. Shows what you actually
know. And you call Don stupid?


I seldom find it necessary to call people stupid - they advertise that
themselves.

I stand properly corrected in Ingersoll vs. Woodstock; it WAS 25 years ago
when it began; i.e., the demise of Canadian auto production.

The Cami Plant in Ingersoll is still producing loads destined for
Dearborn, MI, and bringing in US produced Domestic Rail Traffic put on
the ramps for our Carhaulers, destined for Dealers in the GTA, Niagara
Penninsula, and Eastern Ontario.
Other loads also go to Cheektowaga NY, and Lewiston, NY. Then we
pick up mostly Ford backhauls being delivered on the way home as a "
Peddler " to dealers on the way. F 1, 2, 3 and 450's, Escapes, Taurus
X's, etc.


You're a truck driver? Can't beat that credential...CAW?

I don't believe you were involved with anything, and are talking
out your ass.


You beliefs are a personal problem .....you believe Toyota's are "built" in
Canada. Your neighbors in the ghetto to the South suffer similar delusions.

And some people keep buying Yamaha, Suzuki and Honda Outboards.....
Where's THAT money going, hmmmmmm?


Japan - rice burners aren't limited to automobiles.

Whatever you want to believe is your personal issue. You bought a rice
burner and sent $20,000 to Japan. Just don't burden others with the
foolishness that you "stimulated" the economy, i.e., Canada's, when you did
something to amplify the problem.

Cheer up, though...someone in this thread actually confessed to buying a
Lada and Yugo!

In the mid 80's there were a lot of Lada's in Ontario - I asked a purchasing
manager of GM of C in Oshawa "why?" He shouted "....BECAUSE TRUDEAU IS A
F**KING COMMUNIST!!!!........" Hahahahahhahahahahahahahahaha

Asian econoboxes are easy to park when dragging all the red Chinese junk
home from "The Bay," though.

I presume you also didn't know U.S. manufacturers cannot ship automobiles
to, or build assembly plants in, Japan or Korea.

with a bunch of 7.62x51still sealed in the 200 round NATO battle
packs


That's pretty well what I've done with 7.23x39 being the best buy I
mean .07c a shot? and most other bulk caliber rounds I've got were
about .15c a round.

But man, .22's have even gone up. I cleaned up my dad's old Winchester
model 74 which takes .22 short only. they're kind of hard to find in
my area but i got some. $7.70 for a box of 100! Not need to reminisce
about old timer days when they were a buck-fifty for a box of 50
either...



Natchez usually has better prices:

http://www.natchezss.com/ammo.cfm?co...ammoSize= 198

I usually order ammo with a couple of friends, and we split the shipping
fee, which isn't that bad when I just order for myself.

I use CCI's Blazer mini-mag .22LR, about $5 for a plastic box of 100.
Haen't seen a .22 short in years.

Well, I'd say I have about 7-8000 rounds of 7.62x39, Cheap shooting..
The SKS's are crude looking, simple yet effective for what they are
but have some really neat features you don't find on about anything

more than a toad sticker, it can be pressed into the ground and used
as a monopod and *they're very dependable, and danged cheap rifles *to
own shoot. *But true, they don't win the beauty prize.
I have over 3000 rd of 5.56 (223) and at least 1000 rd of 357, 44, and
45 in each caliber, and I'm not sure but I think I have about 1500 in .
303 Brit. and about 500 is 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser. I'm not sure Harry,

The best I did on military stuff was about 15c a round on some
Argentine but I did get some of that "China Sport" copper washed steel
case for around 9c but you get what you pay for. That is really
appropriate for shooting beer cans or such but it seems pretty
inconsistent in the casual shooting I have done with it. I bet a group
of 7" at 100yds might not be a bad guess.



I don't know. I've most of my "chi-com" is military ball, and in the
steel casing and it's been a while, but now my curiosity is up. I'll
have to grab an SKS and bench it and see what pattern it will do at
200 yd. I think it groups tighter than that, but I'll do that when the
weather clears up a bit.

i realize that an SKS isn't a Dragunov

http://www.kitsune.addr.com/Firearms...iper_Rifle.gif

And a 7.62x39 isn't near what a 7.62x54r is , but I still think
they'll group better than 7" at 100'


But a couple years ago, I went dear huning with a SKS and used Norma
brand hollow -point and it dropped deer really well. in the 2-250 yd.
range.

The deer made good sausage too!

I have over 3000 rd of 5.56 (223) and at least 1000 rd of 357, 44,

in .
303 Brit. and about 500 is 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser. I'm not sure
Harry,
but I'd have to see what I've got in 30-06, .308, .30 carbine and
.
243, not counting various various shotgun shells.
Crikey...You have a lot more ammo around than I have... :)
Well, That's just from buying too much on sale over the years...
Same here. Several years ago when everyone was selling ammo cheap, I
loaded up. It turns out to be one of my best investments.I ended up
with a bunch of 7.62x51still sealed in the 200 round NATO battle
packs


That's pretty well what I've done with 7.23x39 being the best buy I
mean .07c a shot? and most other bulk caliber rounds I've got were
about .15c a round.


But man, .22's have even gone up. I cleaned up my dad's old Winchester
model 74 which takes .22 short only. they're kind of hard to find in
my area but i got some. $7.70 for a box of 100! Not need to reminisce
about old timer days when they were a buck-fifty for a box of 50
either...


Natchez usually has better prices:

I usually order ammo with a couple of friends, and we split the shipping
fee, which isn't that bad when I just order for myself.


I use CCI's Blazer mini-mag .22LR, about $5 for a plastic box of 100.
Haen't seen a .22 short in years.

There are a few; tariff is about 100%. In the Seoul/Inchon megalopolis, you

The point is that North American manufacturers are not allowed to export or

Americans can afford swamp fish. It all fits.

The population can change the demise of North America - the politicians
never will, because they are several steps below the Ebola virus on the food

Well, I sent (not personally) a bunch of money to China today.. But I'm
still supporting the economy. I helped a local gun dealer get a good
bulk discount. He needed the extra amount to qualify for a 25,000
round purchase .
I'm not a fan of Chinese small arms or ammo, but lots of guys are. I've
seen a couple of interesting Chinese semi-autos, but the stamped out AK
knockoffs, nah.
How much ammo you keep around?
Well, I'd say I have about 7-8000 rounds of 7.62x39, Cheap shooting.
The SKS's are crude looking, simple yet effective for what they are
but have some really neat features you don't find on about anything
else, like a chrome lined bore (fights corrosion) a bayonet that is

Perhaps you didn't have the concentration of buffons participating in real
estate hyperinflation, not scumbags in parliment like down South that
engineered the debacle. Canada is far better off than the ghetto to your
South as far as selection of the rulers. It's the behavior of the masses
that is detrimental to the economic future.
