"We beat it to death. LOL. Hahaha"
Dear Special Place in Hell:
I am writing in hopes of making a reservation for two or more Florida punks who haven't been arrested yet, but probably will soon be.
I am sure you will agree that, despite what I am guessing to be their tender ages, they have already proven well worth spending eternity at your time-honored establishment.
Of course, once they are found, tried and convicted, they will likely spend some more time in this earthly realm before arriving at your most unpearly gates — at least several years, we'd hope, in one of Florida's charming prison facilities.
But we wanted to make sure you would hold a place for them, as well.
If you require documentation of their acts, here is a brief account.
Last Friday, down in Pembroke Pines — in the state of Florida (I'm sure you're familiar with it) — a woman named Verline Barthelemy let her 13-year-old Pomeranian, Mr. Fox, out in the yard while she was cooking.
When she went to let him back in, a few minutes later, he could not be found.
On Saturday, Barthelemy's boyfriend found Mr. Fox's body on the back porch along with a note that read, "We beat it 2 death. LOL! Hahaha!"
Barthelemy called police and took Mr. Fox's body to a veterinarian, who confirmed the dog likely died from being repeatedly kicked. X-rays showed Mr. Fox had a dislocated spine, broken ribs and a broken jaw, among other injuries.
You can find all this information at Local 10 News.
We are sure you will agree these perpetrators deserve your lowest level suite — the one closest to the fire.
True, they have not yet been identified, but certainly local police authorities will be giving their all to track them down and bring them to justice. They've asked anyone with information to call police at 954-431-2200.
I don't know if you guys compare notes or anything, but, just to let you know, we have also sent a request to your counterpart/nemesis/antithesis up in Heaven, asking him to ensure that justice comes swiftly.
Once that happens, we are happy to let our fine correctional facilities, and all they have to offer — hahaha, lol — take over.
After that though, when these heartless sadists come to an end of their natural lives and they show up at your front desk, we ask that you accommodate them in that most special wing of your special place in Hell.
Warmest regards,

The fastest dog on two (front) paws
There's a new "fastest dog on two feet," Guinness World Records reports.
While Jiff, a pomeranian who once appeared in a Katy Perry video, is listed in the 2015 Guinness World Records as the fastest dog to walk on two legs, a new two-legged runner has laid claimed to at least part of the title.
Konjo, a Papillon-Jack Russell-Chihuahua mix from California, wrested the title away from Jiff after scooting 5 meters on front paws in 2.39 seconds, breaking Jiff's record of 7.76 seconds.
Jiff still holds the record for being the fastest while using only back paws.
Konjo started walking on her front feet when she was a puppy, explains her owner, Julia Pasternack.
"My theory as to why she started doing this is that her center of mass resides primarily in the front, allowing her better balance," Pasternack said.
Growing up in a two-story home, Konjo probably became used to putting all her weight on her front feet when she went down stairs.
All the positive affirmation she received when walking on just her front paws while on level ground probably led her to continue to demonstrate the talent, Konjo's veterinarian thinks.

And now, the downside of doggy DNA tests
The board of a ritzy Manhattan co-op is requiring some residents undergo testing of their blood and spit to determine if they are pure enough — and of the proper type — to live there.
As of last month, dog owners living in the luxury tower at 170 West End Avenue must have their veterinarian sign off on the canine's pedigree and, if the pet is a mix, detail the percentage of each breed, according to DNAInfo.com
The policy is designed to purge the building of any pedigrees the board deems troublesome.
And the board deems many breeds troublesome — 27 in all, including the Pomeranian and the Maltese.
Residents were informed of the new policy a few months ago.
The board policy says the 27 breeeds were chosen based on "documented information regarding their tendency towards aggressiveness."
In the case of mixed breed dogs, the co-op board is requiring owners to have their pet undergo a DNA test. If the test shows a dog to be made up of more than 50 percent of one of the outlawed breeds, it will have to leave the building.
Initially, they wanted to require mandatory DNA testing of all dogs, but they amended the policy to require the testing "at the board's discretion."
The latest version of the policy, issued on May 26, says that if a dog's breed is unknown "the board at its sole discretion may require a resident to perform DNA testing."
The 484-unit, 42-story cooperative is one of eight buildings that comprise Lincoln Towers, a 20-acre property near Lincoln Center managed by FirstService Residential. Each building has its own co-op board and makes its own policies.
The board policy also requires that residents register their dog and provide a mugshot of the canine.
The list of banned breeds includes St. Bernards and German shepherds, pit bulls, basset hounds — and even the tiny shih tzu.
"It's like dog racism essentially," one resident said of the new policy. "It's beyond offensive, it's intrusive."

Creepy: California man accused of killing ex's dog, and feeding it to her dinner
We're not sure who gave Ryan Eddy Watenpaugh the minor shiner he sports in this mug shot.
But, assuming Watenpaugh really did what he is accused of doing, he deserves much worse, and — once he goes to trial, and if he gets convicted, of course — we hope he gets it.
The Shasta County, California, man is in custody for killing his girlfriend's dog, then cooking the dog and feeding his girlfriend part of the remains — telling her it was a pork dish initially, then texting her that what she'd really eaten was her dog.
Police in Redding say Watenpaugh's live-in girlfriend left him after a fight in August, leaving her Pomeranian, Bear, behind.
When she returned, in what appeared to be a reconciliation, Watenpaugh told her the dog had disappeared.
As a show of what appeared good faith, he made her dinner, then informed her — through text messages — that she had eaten her dog.
"It set all of us back when we read the text messages about the incident," said a police sergeant. "The suspect asked her how Bear tasted … obviously referencing the meal he prepared for her."
Police are still investigating, but they say a package Watenpaugh left for his ex last week lends credence to the claims he made in his messages. On Tuesday, the victim said Watenpaugh left a bag at her front door — inside of which were the paws of what she believed to be her dog, Action News reported.
Watenpaugh, 34, was arrested Thursday evening, booked into the Shasta County Jail and is being charged with domestic violence, stalking, animal cruelty and imprisonment.
"It's sad, that if indeed the dog was killed as part of this incident, because dogs are innocent. All they want is affection and love," Redding Police Sgt. Todd Cogle told NBC News on Friday. "For someone to take advantage of that innocence is obviously sad and depressing."
Watenpaugh admitted to leaving Bear's paws in front of his ex-girlfriend's home, but denied anything to do with the dog's apparent death, police said.
No other remains of the dog have been found.

Jiff: The fastest dog on two legs
A four-year-old Pomeranian named Jiff has been named the fastest dog on two legs.
He has four of them, but he only needs two — front or rear — to propel himself so speedily and over such great distances that he'll be honored for two records in the 2015 Guinness World Record book. The 60th anniversary edition is coming out September 10.
Not that Jiff wasn't already pretty famous.
Jiff has appeared in several television ads and was featured in "Dark Horse," a music video by singer Katy Perry. His Facebook page has more than 1.3 million "likes.
Originally from Grayslake, Illinois, Jiff recently moved to Los Angeles to pursue an acting career, according to his owners, who prefer to remain anonymous.
"When Jiff first walked into our offices, we weren't even sure he was real," Guinness World Records Editor-in-Chief Craig Glenday said. "He looks like a living, breathing cuddly toy."

One swingin' Pomeranian
We find this video very soothing — hypnotic almost.
And Shepard, the Pomeranian it features, seems to have enjoyed it, too.
His owners Jess and Trent, who live in North Carolina, say the four-year-old Pom never tires of swinging in the tire.

Gov. McCrory shows his soft side
While he's not viewed as particularly warm and cuddly by Democrats — at least when it comes to helping humans in need — N.C. Gov. Pat McCrory says he wants the public to adopt abandoned and mistreated dogs, and he and the first lady are opening up the governor's mansion (or at least its yard) for an adoption event tomorrow.
McCrory is shown in this News & Observer video petting a pomeranian, seized in a recent puppy mill bust in Pender County.
Lexi will be among as many as 30 dogs — some coming from as far away as Greensboro and Charlotte to attend — who will be available for adoption at the event, which runs from 10:30 a.m.to 12:30 p.m. Saturday
While it seems odd protocol for an adoption event, anyone wishing to attend is asked to RSVP by today — by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com.
The governor and first lady Ann McCrory are also promoting a bill to set minimum standards for breeding operations.
While the proposal isn't too tough, relative to measures passed in other states, it sets standards ensuring that dogs have daily exercise, fresh food and water, shelter and veterinary care at breeding operations with at least 10 females.
The measure passed the House but didn't get heard in the Senate before it recessed. The General Assembly reconvenes in May.
"I'm not going to give up on the bill," the governor said at the press conference announcing the adoption event Wednesday. "This dog issue is not a Democratic or Republican issue — it's an independent issue for every one of us."
The McCrorys have one dog, Moe, who lives at their Charlotte residence.

this is a great article from some local researchers.
"Someone I loved once gave me a box full of darkness. It took me years to understand that this, too, was a gift." -- Mary Oliver
Very cool. I can only hope the winds are changing towards this kind of theory in behavioral science, and that new applications for the theory will spread. In speaking to people about the role of motivation in unschooling, including some that have degrees in Psych that were based on Skinnerian ideas, I've found that the hardest thing is not getting people to accept that we are intrinsically motivated, but getting people to accept that everyone's needs can be met with all due respect to another person's autonomy. People in roles of authority find it easier to carrot and stick people into submission to get the job done and generally don't know of any other ways to accomplish their goals and tasks.

Ghost Recon: Heroes Unleashed, the ruthlessly unforgiving tactical shooter experience. Unofficial expansion pack for Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon with 150+ maps, 250+ weapons, tons of new content, packed with ass-kicking realism and countless other gameplay improvements. Maybe it's time to revisit the King of tactical shooters!
Heroes Unleashed is an unofficial expansion pack for the squad-based military tactical first person shooter Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon, and before I introduce you to this mod (as in modification), please allow me to tell you a little bit about the game it is made for.
On Tuesday, November 13, 2001, a game developer in North Carolina's Research Triangle, not far from U.S. Army Special Forces installation Fort Bragg, released their opus magnum - Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon. The company, Red Storm Entertainment, had been founded five years prior, in 1996, by famed author Tom Clancy, best known for authentic and technically detailed military science thrillers, and his friend Doug Littlejohns, a highly decorated British Royal Navy Captain.
RSE gained major critical acclaim with their release of the first true tactical FPS - Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six - in 1998. In stark contrast to the ubiquitous run'n'gun shooters that had gone before, Rainbow Six rewarded tactics and planning over twitch reflexes, and its "one shot, one kill" introduced gamers to the concept of unforgiving realism. RSE's brainchild of realistic tactical first person shooters - a genre unheard of before Rainbow Six - was taken even further and ultimately reached its apotheosis three years later in Red Storm Entertainment's next groundbreaking release: Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon.
Expanding Rainbow Six' narrow counter terrorism CQC settings with open non-linear sandbox environments of military battlefields, and adding unequaled realism and streamlined realtime cooperative squad controls, RSE's Ghost Recon won multiple "Game of the Year" awards, topped many "Best Games of All Times" lists, and earned the ultimate accolade of being named "The Thinking Man's Shooter". Ghost Recon strikes a perfect balance between action game and realism simulator by side-stepping both the unrealistic hollywood-esque action approach of e.g. Call of Duty and Counter Strike games, as well as the overly cumbersome complexity of scale simulation minutiae employed by e.g. the Operation Flashpoint and ArmA series.
Focused squarely on realistic nonlinear tactical play, paired with its natural intuitive controls, unrivaled immersion, and vivid situational awareness, Ghost Recon facilitates and also unconditionally demands the undistracted use of tactical faculties, consequently adhering to Bushnell's theorem of being easy to learn and difficult to master. To this day, over a decade after its release, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon is widely considered to be the greatest tactical shooter ever made. While later games were published under the Tom Clancy and Ghost Recon brands, developed after RSE's buyout by French publisher Ubisoft, none ever came close to the uncompromising concept of the original.
Until today, no game developer has presented a single valid contender to Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon, the ruling King of tactical shooters.
Heroes Unleashed is my tribute to the greatest tactical shooter ever, the original Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon, released in 2001, developed by Red Storm Entertainment, and brought to the Mac by i5works and Aspyr. The mod aspires to honor makers and fans of this timeless masterpiece, to be a token of appreciation for all the people contributing to the undying and ever-expanding universe of classic Ghost Recon.
This unofficial expansion pack is the redux of content and ideas from a myriad of other Ghost Recon mods, and it aims to incorporate those elements into an ultimate collection, meticulously complemented by a host of significant enhancements and many novel features. Among its numerous additions, Heroes Unleashed contains 150+ different maps (available in all single and multiplayer game modes), provides over 100 game types (for SP and MP combined), and offers more than 250 authentic weapons to choose from. All add-ons feature a consistent professional finish and are painstakingly integrated and balanced.
The mod also tries to improve and refine many aspects of the game to further increase its perennial appeal and addictive replayability, while remaining true to Ghost Recon's unique character and concept. Heroes Unleashed strives to intensify Ghost Recon's realistic feel and immersive qualities, to make the game more challenging and emphasize the hallmark of Ghost Recon gameplay: realistic tactical play, rather than the asinine wanna-live-forever run'n'gun found in other shooters.
If you are looking for killing sprees or frag fests, move right along, there is nothing to see here. Just as the original game, this mod is about tactics and teamwork, and a focused mind and good strategy will serve you better than twitch reflexes and an itchy trigger finger. With the combination of all of its features, Heroes Unleashed seeks to create the optimum Ghost Recon experience to accommodate all kinds of players - casual gamer, clan regular, and league contestant alike.
I hope that Ghost Recon: Heroes Unleashed will provide you with many additional years of fun in playing one of the best games ever devised.
PS: To enjoy Ghost Recon and the Heroes Unleashed mod to the fullest, I urge you to join the most awesome fan community on the web at the GhostRecon.net forums, as you won't be able to find a nicer crowd of people and more in-depth Ghost Recon game and modding resources anywhere else on the web!

Is this mod still in progress? Any plans to ever port the Ghost Recon 2 maps from the console version to PC? Been playing the mod with my friends for years now so any news would be great! If not then that sucks but hey, don't plan on stopping anytime soon :D
Is this mod dead? or is it still in development?
Damn i didn't know this project was still in progress i thought it was a final version which looks complete to me.
Great works.
Also is it possible to make the menu display at 1920x1080 or 1680x1050 instead of 640x480(or 800x600 i don't remenber well).
Because i'd like to record but if the resolution starts changing while loading it will record at the size of the menu.
Can I play as the Russians, or any other army in this mod?
Fast question, are there any requirements to use the mod because i`m having a bit of an issue running it
How to remove custom crosshairs?
Amazing Mod i have been playing everyday, n waiting for 9th..Thanks dude
Many thanks for the nice words, dude! I'm working on the update as hard as I can, whenever I have a bit of spare time. Hope you'll like it when it's done. I'm optimistic, though. :)
Yeah Keep GR a live...Ghost Recon Forever! :)

I had to come back to this mod so I can review. There really aren't any words to explain how much I love this mod. It should probably be called Ghost Recon Perfected. It adds all the ghost recon content in one whole Mod then adds as a ton of more content on top of that. This mod and the ARMA series are just about the only two realistic tactical shooters I only play. This one shoots at 2nd on my list. With the new XL XXL mission types I can have even more fun! The amount levels make an endless server…

Under the direction of a physician, the program coordinated the resources of hospital, clinic, medical school, and community. This team concept has benefited all participating groups. In nine years of operation this program has achieved a plateau, with a patient load of 15 to25 patients and about 4,500 patient-days of care per year. It demonstrates that care in the home, when practical, is less expensive and more conducive to the patient's general well-being than is hospital care.

Hey looking to get the most accurate long range .308 rifle for less than $1,000. I am going to use this as mostly a target gun out to 400 yards, or more possibly. Thanks guys

Most accurate and under $1000? I'm new to bolt guns personally, but have seen lots at the range and have shot quite a few of them. The most popular are either the Savage or Remington 700 in some flavor of tactical or varmint model. Just keep in mind that it won't do anything that you aren't capable of.
October 7, 2010, 10:44 PM
truth, i woud suggest a howa m1500 sporter .308
mine shoots sub moa ususally.
and they cost 550.
and can be upgraded like crazy.
October 7, 2010, 10:56 PM
snipercentral actually has a pretty comprehensive list of rifles with great accuracy and usually list a street price, you might look around there for a little while. http://www.snipercentral.com/rifles.htm
I would concur that most .308 bolt actions I see are 700 or savage heavy barrels. howa or weatherby could certainly be an option, but if your budget without glass is 1k, I'd be looking into the remingtons and savages. If that was your budget WITH glass, I would still be looking at some of the cheaper remington 700's, as most of their heavy barreled actions are nearly, if not, the same.
good luck!
October 7, 2010, 11:02 PM
Is the $1k rifle only or does it include scope?
Consider a .223 also. Slightly more economical to shoot. Used can be a good way to save some money.
Weatherby Vanguard is Made by Howa & deserves a look.
Handloading may be worth it to you.
October 7, 2010, 11:14 PM
Yeah, .223 is definitely an option and will do 400 yards pretty easily. It's also cheaper to buy and load for.
October 7, 2010, 11:53 PM
My first time with a .223 bolt gun really impressed me. The rifle was a real shooter. My first 2 shots were less than .75" apart @ 600 yds. Of course I managed to open up my group over the next 20 shots!
Easier on recoil as well. If you have a .223 AR (seen yours on here) they go together nicely. Great for paper targets. Bullet holes are a wee bit harder to spot, but at some point range and mirage becomes prohibitive no matter what.
October 8, 2010, 07:57 AM
Individual rifles are accurate or not so much so, not a particular make or model as a whole. That being said, get a rifle with a heavy contour barrel, have the rifle bedded, and lighten up the trigger. Then, go searching for good optics, and put the scope in good tactical rings. Good luck on the less than $1,000 thing.
October 8, 2010, 09:01 AM
I started competing in long range tactical matches earlier this year. I hadn't shot long range since post-level sniper school in the Army. I researched for hours and hours to find the right rifle/scope combo in my price range (same as yours), talked to a lot of more experienced long range shooters, read everything I could get my hands on, and tried to shoot every brand and model I could before buying. And here's what I found (YMMV):
* Individual examples of any brand can be a complete turd or can be a stellar shooter. I've seen inexpensive Howas shoot lights out while I've seen a high dollar custom rifle that would barely stay under 1 MOA. It's just the luck of the draw sometimes, though specific brands and models can tend to be very accurate as a rule, such as Savage 10FCPs/10FP LEs, etc. which are practically always serious shooters. Or Remington 700Ps which are almost always very accurate right
off the shelf.
* To go from a .750" weapon to a .500" starts to get real pricey. To get under .500" consistently you really gotta hammer the savings account. But then again ... you might buy an off-the-shelf Howa 1500 or Remington SPS Varmint or SPS Tactical that will group under .500" right out of the box. Ya just don't know. :D
* The base model Remington 700 Varmint and Tactical rifles can be made to shoot as well as any $3000 custom if you have the time and money to put into it. And if you get a good one off the shelf (Remington QA seems to be getting it back together of late) you can shoot it as is till you need more accuracy as you improve. If you can wait and build on a base rifle as money allows, the heavy barreled Remington 700 is the ticket. The aftermarket support for the SPS line is second to none and it is the most common rifle by far at long range tactical comps. If you get a good one, you'll be set for a while, and you will still have money for a Bushnell 3200 or SS 10x and rings.
* If you need a reliable and known .500" - .750" shooter right out of the box Savage is the way to go. Their heavy barreled LE model 10s (10FP, 10FCP, 10FCP-K, 10FCP McMillan) are very reasonably priced and finding one that won't shoot close to 1/2 MOA with tailored handloads right out of the box would be rare. I bought an 10FCP-K after a ton of the aforementioned research and I would buy it again in a heartbeat over anything else. You can buy a Savage 10FCP and throw a Bushnell 3200 10x on it and you are totally set. Buy a mountain of ammo and practice with a good long range shooter watching over your shoulder.
* If you don't want a heavy barreled tactical weapon for long range hunting (I use my long range rig for hog and deer), the most awesome sporter I've ever seen is the Thompson/Center Venture. They cut their own 5R rifled barrels in house and man they sure can shoot. Smooth action, too. Me likee. I saw a guy take one out of the box at the range and shoot sub MOA with cheap Wally World Federal PowerShoks. Quite impressive. They are said to be very, very reliable, too. All this for around $500 last time I checked.
On the hardware, your mileage may vary, of course.
To get serious about long range hunting check out any long range tactical shooting videos and books and hit the web for info and videos by Darrell Holland. He's da man when it comes to long range hunting.
October 8, 2010, 11:34 AM
keep them coming. also how would you guys compare a savage to remington 700 so far as accuracy?
October 8, 2010, 12:05 PM
Individual rifles are accurate or not so much so, not a particular make or model as a whole.
What is it about the above that you don't understand?
October 8, 2010, 01:22 PM

Truer words have'nt been spoken... I totally agree with Don on this. To throw out a blanket statement that one brand is more accurate out of the box than another is dumb.
October 8, 2010, 01:33 PM
keep them coming. also how would you guys compare a savage to remington 700 so far as accuracy?
Well, again, based on everything I discovered when researching it's a 'six of one and half dozen of another' kind of thing. Flip a coin. You can buy a good or bad anything from any manufacturer.
Savage bolt guns have always had the reputation of being very accurate right out of the box and very reliable. I'm sure Savage has laid an egg or three. Just because I've never seen it doesn't mean it hasn't happened. But they are generally considered one of the most accurate and reliable rifles available for the money. However, they are also considered ugly (barrel nut, lines, etc.), have flimsy stocks (not true of the LE series so much, tho), and don't have the aftermarket support that Remington does.
Remington 700s are also generally very accurate and reliable, but some folks have gotten merely average accuracy (1 to 2 MOA) from the 700 tactical and varmint series at a time when $500 Weatherbys, TC Ventures, and Savage LEs are sub MOA out of the box. Remington has taken a hit on quality lately, and I have been stung myself a few times. But as near as I can tell they are getting better. I think they are going to get the quality sorted out. My last 7600 was flawless. And Remington has that tremendous aftermarket support so however your 700 SPS shoots you can turn it into a sub .500" rifle eventually.
You can put together a decent long range weapon system for under a grand if you shop smart and learn how to do a little work yourself (floating barrel channels, bedding actions, etc.). I've seen $1000 rifles holding their own in competition right beside the guy with the TRG-22. And I've seen guys with custom APA/Badger or GAP rifles who didn't seem to know which end the bullet came out of. It's the Indian ... not the arrow.
October 8, 2010, 01:50 PM
When I think prodcution rifle accuracy certain names come to mind.
In the 1000 dollar price range however I'd consider CZ, Savage, Tikka & Weatherby.
"Individual rifles are accurate or not so much so, not a particular make or model as a whole." - Very True.
October 8, 2010, 01:52 PM
I have several .308's and all with decent scopes cost me less than $1,000. I have a Ruger 77, Winchester 70, a Savage 112 and a Remington 700. Of these, the Remington 700 with Nikon scope shoots the best for me. More info about this gun at the following link: http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?p=6775373#post6775373
October 8, 2010, 01:56 PM
Maybe something from Surgeon rifles?
Patriot Arms?
Ed Brown?
I'm assuming you want a bolt rifle.
The DSR-1 is claimed to produce sub-0.2 MOA groups.
October 8, 2010, 02:44 PM
Personally, to compliment my AR, I'm thinking about a Savage-Steven's 200 in .223. The gun itself is a little over $300, but is pillar-bedded, savage 110 actioned, and savage barreled. The only particularly desirable item (to me) I lose by going Stevens is the AccuTrigger.
Everything I've come across is they'll usually do below MOA out of the box. They're also sold in .308
October 8, 2010, 02:49 PM
for under 1k, Savage 10fcp in the hsprecision stock. With handloads it will CONSISTENTLY shoot into 1 minute and better. I haven't done any tinkering with it and it shoots as good as I can expect it to.
Also have very good experience with a rem sps in 223. I had to do some minor changes with it, but after about 100 dollars and some time, it is a total tac driver.
October 8, 2010, 03:14 PM
Well, I'll be a renegade here and mention the Marlin XL and XS series rifles.
These have features on rifles costing twice as much. Reviews are excellent and you can go on several forums and see nickel and quarter size groups from a rifle right out of the box. No bedding, no accurizing, and many shoot MOA or subMOA in the hands of a good shooter.
It too has an adjustable trigger. Marlin sells them with synthetic and wood stocks.
Uses any scope mounts that fit a Remington 700
October 8, 2010, 03:47 PM
most accurate I have seen was a friends M-700 heavy barrel. I have personally witnessed my friend shoot a .177 (5) shot group and several sub-1/4 inch groups.
Second to that is the same friend's Savage which stalls out at about 1/5 inch 5 shot groups...
What is the difference, it was necessary to turn the barrel back, rechamber, recrown, float the barrel, and square the locking lugs on the Remington to shrink the groups form the initial 3 inch groups (same shooter, scope, rings, mounts, and scope.)
The Savage was right out of the box.
October 8, 2010, 03:50 PM
What is it about the above that you don't understand?
USSR, this may be partially true but some makes and models do have far more complaints than others. Do you expect me to go and buy any old rifle i find without some input upon the average accuracy i can expect?
October 8, 2010, 07:12 PM
For a target rifle, plan on paying a smith to have it bedded and the trigger worked on. Having a rifle for which aftermarket match-grade parts are available is a plus. The problem with going with accuracy averages on the net is, a lot of them involve "internet" groups, that in many cases have no basis in reality. Go to a local rifle match and see what the competitors are using and what degree of accuracy can be expected.

October 8, 2010, 08:06 PM
Get yourself a Savage and be happy, these rifles have been the most consistently accurate rifles as of late, the last several years, for a factory, mass produced rifle.
Truth is, they ALL shoot around the same level of accuracy, the trick is to find the rifle, and or manufacture that is producing rifles that are shooting well 'right now', when you are looking to buy one.
October 8, 2010, 10:15 PM
Very pleased with my Savage 10FP 20" .308! holds .5 moa for me out to 300yrds, with tailored handloads. No reason a Remmy .308 couldn't do it too....My LTR .223 holds .5 moa with handloads, too!
Happy pickins:D
October 8, 2010, 10:32 PM
Savage's are amazing guns, but if you want to branch out and look at something different, check out the CZ 550. I just picked one up in .308 and it is slick. I haven't put any glass on mine yet, but the one that I have shot was a completely stock clover-group shooter.
While I love the Accutrigger, the CZ set trigger is SWEET (and the un-set trigger on mine is about average for it's price range). It breaks at about 3/4 of a pound out of the box. It's a different machine for sure, but very awesome.
I think Savage and CZ bolt actions are about the best bang for your buck these days. However, if I was going out right now to buy a new current production bolt action, it'd be the a new FNchester 70.
October 8, 2010, 10:47 PM
You could build an inexpensive version of this and come in at around $1000, not including the Scope and mount, but it wouldn't be an over the counter proposition.
I just put this together the night before last.
What I mean by an inexpensive version is that you don't need a $300 stock and $200 trigger group or $60 flash hider. All else is pretty much run of the mill except for the barrel, which is a Douglass match barrel turned by Compass Lake and coated by Superior Barrels.
October 8, 2010, 11:42 PM
The simple fact remains that there are far too many variables to be accounted for to make a solid suggestion. A descent scope, mounts and rings can run a hole through $1k without apology. We still don't know if that's your total budget or rifle only budget.
If this is your first forray in to long range shooting, don't expect 1/4" groups at 400 yards or even 100. Ultimately you will determine how accurate the rifle is. Some people can purchase better accuracy to a point but some will never shoot one hole. There's a reason Bob Villa hired Norm Abrahms to work on those Old Houses and why Jerry Jones doesn't QB the Cowboys.
We all realize you'd like some leads so I would suggest posting a list of your needs. Is weight a consideration? What position do you plan to shoot from most of the time? Are you recoil sensitive? Are you 6' 10" and need a custom stock? Do you know a good gun smith who can work on your rifle or do you need an out of the box solution?
My father has had rifles built that were simply impractical for their intended purpose and were unfortunately sold at considerable loss. He cannot mount a scope to save his life or bed an action but he can still outshoot me every day of the week with trifocals. No one wants to make a wrong selection for you or see you waste money needlessly. Nearly all of us will be brand centric (I like Remington) so it's hard to be objective.
Going to a match to see what others can do may not be your best sollution. I once met a guy at my local gun club who had chopped and recrowned his rifle 7 times.
Make the list, let us know, maybe we'll get you in the ballpark.

A few manufacturers offer accuracy guarantees. Weatherby, for example, guarantees that many of their rifles will make 1.5" groups at 100 yards with their ammo. This does not set the internet commandos on fire but will get the job done in the field every time.
Beyond that sort of thing, the only factory rifles I am aware of that are very consistently accurate are those from Browning, with the BOSS system. They don't get a whole lot of press - possibly because they're both funny looking and extremely un-tactical - but they really do shoot.
And after that, well, you've gotten really good advice from the folks telling you it's a crap shoot. Savage has a good - and deserved - reputation for accuracy, but I've had some real dogs from Savage. Same story with Remington: I had a 700 that was a consistent 7 MOA rifle with factory ammunition, and the factory wasn't willing to do a thing about it. But I've also had Savages and Remingtons that were sub MOA with just about anything you fed through them. You can listen to glowing praise for either or both all day long, but the rifle you end up with isn't going to know any of that and may still be a dog regardless of what some guy on the internet told you.
Frankly, I think the best approach may simply be to buy three of whatever you're looking for, test fire all of them, keep the best and sell the other two. That's probably the least expensive way to guarantee an accurate rifle.

Add this to one of these: http://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/cPath/445/products_id/80593. That leaves you about $150 for a set of steel rings and bases, Burris makes relatively inexpensive ones, just avoid aluminum. Buy a Caldwell 6-9" bipod and you're at $1000. Best I can do without specifics (don't know if you're a lefty or need a longer stock, etc.)
You might look in to a used Rem. 700 or a Savage and a good aftermarket stock which can help with shooting comfort and felt recoil.
Best of luck.
October 9, 2010, 11:05 AM
there is no such thing. get a remington or savage or howa. you learn to use it
October 9, 2010, 11:12 AM
Rifles have come a long way in 20 years. It used to be that MOA rifles were rare and difficult to get. Not so anymore. If your range is out to 400 yards, Probably just about ANY brand-name bolt rifle in .308 will do the job.
And remember, the best rifle you can buy won't do much good if you aren't doing your part. I tell people, you need to get a .22, and practice until you can do less than two inches at 100 yards with open sights until you are bored. THEN you can start looking at longer ranges and heavier rifles. .22 is a LOT cheaper to learn the fundamentals with than centerfire calibers.
If it was me, I would cruise the pawn shops. (Particularly in this economy,) They are full of rifles that guys bought wanting to do the sniper thing, realized it was actually hard work and a lot of practice, let the rifle sit in the closet for two years, and then their wife made them get rid of it.
October 9, 2010, 11:34 AM
true true, i wanted to get into the sniper thing, so i bought a howa m1500 standard with hougue stock, and am buying a bell and carlson stock asap.
then a new scope, i already have 630 dollars into it with the expensive bipod i got, and over 100 dollars in match ammo ect, and then i have 60 dollar sand bags, i still need a nice mat, and case. then i'll be at about 1000 so, it does add up, you dont need just the rifle, you realize that when you try to shoot without rear support, and not having good ammo for good groupings, so yes, a nice nice rifle will do you well, but when i have the 1000 into my rifle and setup ect, it will most likely shoot better than the stock remington or savage.
October 9, 2010, 12:23 PM
I've been hunting with a Howa 1500 for 20 years. The difference is negligible.
October 9, 2010, 01:01 PM
you mean yours is really good?
cause i think mine is amazing for me. cause im still learning high power.
October 9, 2010, 01:09 PM
My .270 shoots about 2" at 100 yards with pretty much any ammo.
October 9, 2010, 01:36 PM
My list of things i will need is

I would like to keep this setup at or around $1,000
howa m1500 .308 no scope, about 550-600 dollars.
nice swiveling bipod-about 80 dollars.
good scope- 200-400 dollars. for your budget.
ammo typically 20 a box or over for good stuff.
your already at 1000, and have a good setup at that route
savage 10fp-1000 with no scope, and your out, things add up quick.

You can get going for a $1000. Some of the suggestions here are way past $1k. What you may have to do is be diligent and patient. Find used items when possible. Find a local forum and doing some horse trading may work. Bedding a stock & action can be a DIY project. It will make you appreciate how the guys that do it for a living only charge what they do.
A decent factory rifle with scope can be done for under $1K. It may not be the ultimate, but a good start. If you get into handloading that would be a wise way to shoot more. A lot can be done by working on your position, cheek weld and the like at home with out shooting live ammo. Figuring out how to adjust your scope for reticle focus and adjusting out paralax are things that need to be done no matter how much you spend.
As a friend from car racing says "you can't beat the system". Meaning you will still put time and effort and money out to achieve a goal. The ratio of time/effot/money may change, but cost always add up.
I found a good route was getting a pre-owned rem700. My first scope & bipod were hand me downs. Modded the SPS Varmint stock myself. Traded range pickup brass for scope & mounts. Mueller scope, Burris Extreme rings, EGW base are a good combo on a budget. After that is was handloads and trying to figure out how to shoot it.
I would take range time over equipment upgrades at this time.

It's ok to trust us, we're all "snipers" here!
Seriously, my last post lists a 6-24x Vortex scope (which so many go gaga over here) for $100. The Tikka heavy barrel .308Win is selling for $736 and gives you a solid 8 lb. rifle with elevated cheek piece on a synthetic stock. Burris Xtreme Tactical 2-piece bases run $18 and and Burris rings are $35. The Caldwell bipod is $37.
736 + 100 + 18 + 35 + 37 = $926, add $100 to swap the Tikka for a 700P heavy barrel and you're only $26 over budget. I've suggested it before, have a garage sale next weekend and you'll likely have another $200 to buy ammo with. To be honest I'd skip the bipod and get a solid front rest/ rear bag combo for bench work. Bipods are helpful in the field but aren't the pinnacle of solid platform work.
October 9, 2010, 06:00 PM
Good luck on the less than $1,000 thing.
haha That's what I'm saying!
October 10, 2010, 10:08 AM
My under $1K build looks like this: Savage 10 w/Choate Tactical Stock $649+tax (Cabela's exclusive), Caldwell 6-9 pivot bipod $49, Weaver Bases $10 Weaver Steel Rings $20, Centerpoint 4-16x40mm IR Mildot Scope (optics are good enough to 14x I usually have it at 10x)
Shot this first day out with it while breaking in an trying out some different ammo 100yrds (have it dialed in a bit more now with 175gr SMK pills) :
October 10, 2010, 01:41 PM
Opinions on this subject will vary quite a bit, and you can find a number of decent bolt guns for under $1,000. I personally just bought a Tikka T3 Scout CTR (Compact Tactical Rifle). This rifle sold for $829, and they guarantee that their rifles will shoot MOA at 100 yards. If you aren't familiar with the company, Tikka is made by Sako (in Finland), and essentially amounts to a budget line of Sako rifles. The triggers are nice, and the bolt is simply butter smooth.
I have to admit that I haven't shot mine yet (still glass shopping), but I know a guy who has the same brand with the light barrel (a $600 gun), and he is getting 3/8ths inch 100 yard groups out of his rifle, with proper handloads!
October 10, 2010, 04:00 PM
Skylerbone, is that you in the pic?:D
October 10, 2010, 05:20 PM
remington 700 mountain rifle or remington model 7; either one would be a great investment for less than $1000.00 in 308 caliber.
October 10, 2010, 07:58 PM
No JD, that is NOT ME. (It's my twin brother)

FAIRFAX, Va. -- Featherweights Chan Sung Jung and Dustin Poirier made weight Monday for their Tuesday night bout at UFC on FUEL 3 that could land the victor a title shot.
Each fighter tipped the scale at 145 pounds.
During the staredown, Poirier was in no mood for pleasantries. While Jung offered a slight smile, Poirier remained tightlipped and refused to shake hands when UFC matchmaker Joe Silva tapped each on the shoulder to signal they could separate.
Poirier (12-1) is ranked third among featherweights by ESPN.com. He enters the bout on a five-fight win streak. Jung, who is ranked No. 9, has a professional record of 12-3.
Every other fighter on the UFC on FUEL 3 card qualified to compete Tuesday night at Patriot Center. The event will consist of 12 bouts.
Welterweights Amir Sadollah and Jorge Lopez made use of the extra pound they were allotted for their nontitle co-feature bout, checking in at 171 pounds.
High-profile lightweights Donald Cerrone (155) and Jeremy Stephens (155) will look to rebound from recent losses in hopes of returning to title contention.

Two Greeley teenagers are trying to combat teen drug abuse by serving with Rise Above Colorado, an organization that aims to stop teens from abusing prescription drugs and narcotics.
"We provide positive inspirational messages around making healthy choices when confronted with drugs," said Amy Engleman, teen outreach manager for Rise Above. "We offer engaging and complete information about drug use and addiction. So we are changing attitudes and perceptions and behaviors around drug abuse."
The program uses 24 teenagers from high schools across Colorado to form a council that discusses ways to promote the message that drug use is harmful for teens.
Cassandra Mares-Palmer, a sophomore at Northridge High School in Greeley serving on the council, said she has been battling the effects of teen drug abuse all of her life. Her mother started using hard drugs, such as methamphetamines, at 13, which has affected Mares-Palmer growing up.
Because of that, she said, she wants to help others learn about the dangers of using drugs.
"It is important that no one has to go down that path," Mares-Palmer said. "I can do something about it and share information and share stories. I want to be an advocate for not only myself, my family, my friends, but my entire community to try and make sure no one has to do that."
By having teens teach other teens, Engleman said, the organization is much more effective in getting the message across.
"Our target audience is teens and to be most effective with our key audience we need to involve them in the planning and dissemination, and the evaluation and the entire process of our programming," Engleman said.
Miguel Palma, a teen serving on the Rise Above council from Greeley Central High School, said it is a lot easier having someone talk to you that is your age.
"I don't think they would like having an adult come to them about drugs," Palma said. "I think they would prefer to have a person their age talking to them about drugs."
Palma, a junior at Greeley Central High School, said he hopes by being on the council he can diminish the effects of drug abuse on users and their families as well.
"I am very attentive in the community, so I know what is going on," Palma said, adding that seeing drugs drag down a person and their families, too, can be a horrible thing to watch.
"I think (the program is) important because (drugs are) one of the leading factors in the destruction of teens' futures," Palma added. "With this we can help a lot of people stop doing that and have a future."
Though the council is in the planning stages of what to do as far as putting on events and working with schools, the teens have some ideas for what they want to do.
Mares-Palmer is hoping to help get cameras set up at her school in the areas nicknamed "Smoker's Corners" to help reduce students' use of those spaces.
Both Greeley teens agree that social media is the first step in spreading their message.
"We can do things more involved with teenagers like on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, and that way we can really get the message across because they will listen to things if they are on something that they go on every single day with advertisements that they see," Mares-Palmer said.
She and Palma said they hope to have the opportunity to save lives.
"I am excited because we can do a lot (with this program)," Mares-Palmer said. "We can take this so much further than Greeley, than just Denver, we can make this really big if we put effort into it. We can see results."
She added, "Rather than (just saying) 'Oh, people are doing this at my school, and I see my friends doing this,' we can say that we did something about it. Hopefully, it can create a snowball effect for the community and it makes me excited knowing I can be a part of that."

Cutting the Cheese — my Giardia problems improving after probiotics
This is another chapter in my Giardia diary. I picked up Giardia in July of 2014. I went tubing in the Potomac river with a bunch of friends and co-workers, drank copious amounts of beer and apparently enough river water to give me giardia.
I took Metronidazole (Flagyl) and the immediate symptoms went away by the end of August, just in time for me to start a new job at Amazon Web Services without needing to make #2 four times per day.
Intense lactose intolerance
However, any dairy products, even a slice of butter or cheese, would give me gas and diarrhea. In March, I went back to see my PCP. I gave them stool samples, which came back negative for giardia.
The only advice he could give me was to take probiotics regularly and hope that things got better.
What helped
Daily probiotics
I was taking "Vitacost Probiotic 15-35 — 35 billion CFU** – 120 Vegetarian Capsules" until about March 2015. They didn't agree with me and it took forever to figure out why. Turns out they contain milk !!!
My friend Ben M. recommended Align probiotics since they helped him get over his Giardia bout, which he picked up while drinking from a stream in India (!!?!!).
Align Probiotics are expensive but I think Align is what helped my digestive system recover. They come in a foil tin, like birth control pills, that have a day of the week labeled on them. It helps you to not miss a dose.
They helped A LOT!!! I started getting gas and diarrhea a lot less often after 2 weeks into the 4 week course.
Lactaid milk made me sick still.
My friend Chelsey also has lactose issues and eats one or two Lactaid pills just before eating cheese. I tried that too. You can buy Lactaid caps in boxes of 60 from Amazon for about $12. The Lactaid pills contain the enzyme Lactase, which apparently Giardia patients stop producing. The pills didn't help much at first; I could only have about one coffee creamer in the morning. Anything more than that and I'd get sick. But it got better.
I've finished the Align 4-week course ad now, I can have cheese on my sandwich or hamburger. I can't drink a full glass of milk, or eat more than a slice of pizza, but stay tuned for another episode of Cutting the Cheese!No comments

Cutting the Cheese: My Giardia Diary
This isn't the beginning of my Giardia story, but it's the first time I'm writing about my long, bloated, smelly struggle with Giardia. This is a parasite which inhabits your intestines, giving you intense gas, bloating, and diarrhea. It can leave you with severe lactose intolerance. You can read about the actual parasite all over the internet: wikipedia:Giardia
I caught Giardia on a tubing trip in the Potomac River, in Harpers Ferry, WV. I was out there with a group of friends in July 2014, drinking Coors light, happily tubing down the river. We were splashing around, the beer cans were getting full of river water, and nobody thought much of drinking from them. After all, we were drunk and coors light tastes just like potomac water anyway.
Fast forward a week and the intense symptoms start: LOTS of diarrhea, bloating and gas. Strong cramps, and sensitivity to almost all food. I had just resigned from my job and was looking forward to a month off. It was hard to eat on the day of my going away party, so the gallons of Jameson we drank that night kicked in quickly.
The symptoms persisted for a few weeks. I went to my physician and they tested my stool for Giardia, but I made a mistake with the samples I created for the lab. You're supposed to give samples from several different bowel movements. I only scooped my poop from one day. It's a revolting process the first time you do it. The tests came back negative, but two doctors agreed that I must have Giardia from the symptoms and the obvious source of the parasite.
I took a 7 day course of Metronidazole, a very strong antibiotic. You can't drink for the duration, and the effect of the antibiotic was noticeable after ~day 3. I felt a lot better after having taken the antibiotic.
Unfortunately, some of the symptoms continue. It's now February of 2015, and I'm still trying various types of treatment, that I'll write about here. The stool sample tests still come back negative for giardia, so my physicians haven't been able to help me too much.
It sucks to be a sufferer for so long, but it has honestly helped me lose some weight, control my drinking, and drop a lot of unhealthy foods from my diet. I'm trying to look at the bright side here :) My wife actually shed tears in August in a Chicago hotel room without a bathroom fan after I'd done my business, the smell was so bad. It's awful! Never drink Potomac river water!
I plan to write down some of the things I'm attempting to do to get better. I hope it helps somebody else.No comments

Often evolutionary theory is confused with abiogenesis theory (life comes from non-life). When I talk to and debate creationists, one of the most frequent arguments I hear is that "life did not come from non-life" despite the fact that this has nothing to do with evolutionary theory.
So it got me thinking...
What if a bunch of biochemists got together and created an experiment (similar to what Miller-Urey did, but better) that repeated the conditions of early Earth. And out of this experiment, a single-celled organism spontaneously formed out of the non-living material. This would pretty much be the last nail in the coffin needed to prove abiogenesis theory (assuming it survived scientific peer review, lol).
But would these results cause a creationist (like yourself) to reconsider their beliefs about evolutionary theory?
I don't think it would. Why? Because of the "faith card," of course, and because even mountains of evidence in support of evolutionary theory is not sufficient to change creationist views -- so I don't see why evidence for a different, related theory would be enough to make them reconsider, either.

Non-Creationists: Do you think some creationists would reconsider their views and maybe accept scientific theories explaining where life came from (abiogenesis) and how it got to be so diverse (evolution)?

The title of this work, "Source Book of Orthopaedics," may be faintly misleading. It is not a source book in a contemporary sense but rather a historical documentation covering the development of orthopedic surgery over a period of two thousand years. As such it is packed with information that should be of interest to any physician and particularly to orthopedic surgeons. Many of the early physicians, from Hippocrates to Galen, Hunter and others, possessed amazing powers of observation and description. Ingenious methods of treatment were devised for fractures, scoliosis and other skeletal deformities. The book demonstrates throughout that again and again the medical profession has "rediscovered" diagnoses and treatment that had been clearly recognized one hundred years or so before.
The book has been revised and brought up to date. Part two is divided into chapters covering the various phases of orthopedic surgery, and each chapter includes a complete bibliography
