    .338 Winchester Magnum - CAUTION!!

    Hey folks.

    I just spoke with Greg at the range. He told me that he found - on the rifle range where brass gets picked up fairly regularly - some .338 Win Mag with splits down both sides of the case neck and one completely missing the case neck.

    Seriously - the neck completely missing.

    If you own one of these rifles and it has been to the Talon range in the last . . . couple of weeks . . get the rifle checked for headspace/chamber issues.


    Immediately! Before you fire it again!!

    Seriously. The life you save may be your own!
    I'd rather be lucky than good, but I'd rather KNOW I'm good than HOPE to get lucky.

    Tell the story, you drama queen!
    None can love freedom heartily, but good men; the rest love not freedom, but license.
    --John Milton

    Only digging in on the position of the truth – yes, I defend guns because guns are useful for killing criminals and tyrants – is going to be successful. Only the truth shall set you free.

    You got hoodwinked. You got the ol' bait and switch. Nothing to be ashamed of. How far away are they? We could take the sub and deploy BCC on them.

    Cold shoulder? Is that a new kind of beer?
    When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it--always.
