Ok, I know there are many in here who know a lot more about guns than I do. I have a question. Who makes rifles with Wylde Chambers besides RRA? Is there anyone out there re-chambering Ruger .223's with a Wylde Chamber? Curious minds want to know. Thanks, Layoutshooter

OK, How is this for a problem. My ProHeat came on the other night to re-charge the batteries. I was not in my truck at the time. It blew a cork and I found oil EVERYWHERE on the unit and my parking spot at the house. The engine did shut down and there is no sign of a spontanious dis-asembly. I...

I have always been under the impression that you had to file quarterly estimated taxes. I have been hearing several truckers at truck stops lately that say that they never file that way and have never been charged penalties, late fees etc. It sounds funny to me. Am I right?
