@ Raz - get-um while congress is on vacation!

Not a bad deal these days, at Target Sports USA

Federal 5.56mm XM855 NATO 62 Grain FMJ 420 rds on Stripper Clips in Ammo Can

Special $210.00
FREE SHIPPING INCLUDED

My rifle has a slow twist (1:9), so the higher price for the heavier bullet doesn't buy me anything.  I stock up when I get the 55gr at around $0.40@.  My next such rifle will have a faster twist and a longer barrel.

Just re-barrel it.

But then I don't have an excuse to buy another gun.

But you don't have the money for a new AR anyway so just what difference does it make at this time?

I thought "hunting rifle" was next on the list... not that you couldn't hunt with another AR. Does he already have a .308? 

Oh, and I'm not terribly interested in a .308.

You were not interested in a full size .40 either so you bought two.

I didn't say I wasn't interested in it, only that I didn't NEED it. 

I don't need a .308, but I'm also not particularly interested in that cartridge.

A .308 is a fundamental member of every Murican arsenal.

Used to be. It's outdated technology now.

Wonder why they still sell so many of them in modern rifles

Same reason they still sell so many 1911's in 45acp.  Tradition, heritage, aesthetics, and personal preference. A 308 will get the job done, just not something I'm personally exercised about. Personal preference.

And BTW, I can afford whatever I decide is important to me. The 308 just isn't that important to me right now. But that could change tomorrow, just like it did last week for a couple of FNS-40's.

I was waiting on that and sure enough you got it backwards .  The correct answer would be "for the same reason they sell so many Modern Guns in .45 ACP".

For the life of me, I don't quite understand why they have so many different sizes anyway. Two maybe three sizes for pistols, the same for rifles, two for shotguns and be done with it.  Easier to get ammo, less hassles.

Marketing department that's why.

Someone always wants to build a better mouse trap, and there is always someone who will want to sell it. 

Since Bret kinda brought up Cooper, the short(er) answer is "why not?"

The reason why not is cross compatibility.  PITA if you pick up one gun and get the ammo or cartridge for another.
The more options there are, the greater for mixups.

Like the time my son and I were going out skeet shooting and only realized out on the range that he brought 20g shells for his 12g gun.

Stop the common sense approach to hobbies!   Sheesh, what if they only made 3 kinds of cigars, after all they all just make smoke.

Clearly apples and oranges grumpyTexDave.
Go home, we'll entertain the company until you get back on.

OK, I am gone but just tell them I said GFY's.

I'm holding out hope. A lurker is gonna come out of the woodwork today. I just know it.

Unless all the weapons talk scared them.

Then fuck 'em.

No, no, no...we don't judge here.

Much.

Decided to leave a little early so that I can sneak in a cigar before getting back to my power washing duties...



Thanks, Fish.

Oh, good choice. Good choice.

I appreciate that because I was starting to feel guilty about not going straight home. But I know I made the right choice. Nice little cigar.

A cigar is always the right choice and a CyB is always a solid smoke.

Which makes her qualified to run the country.

Although I believe Trump has the same qualification.

It's a coin-toss for me. I vote guns, limited government, and due process. Neither one of them has a good track record on any of the above, and the ink wasn't dry on the NRA endorsement of Trump when he started equivocating.

Trump is a risk and that evil bitch is a 100% guaranteed disaster for this entire country.  Choice is easy.
