To directly answer the OP’s question, you can safely shoot 7.62x51 in a .308. Expanding on that answer, you CANNOT safely shoot .308 in a 7.62x51 chambered firearm.

I ended up taking Monday and Tuesday off. Had some family stuff and just felt like I needed to rest. Ended up falling late Tuesday night (no idea what happened) and bruised several ribs. Ran a slow 6 miles Wednesday and slightly faster 5 yesterday. Got to get in 4 tonight and 3 tomorrow to get...

Suspected as much. Thank you!

Did my first run at 10 miles yesterday. 8:47 average mile. 3 mile easy run tonight on the treadmill followed by dips, pull-ups, and chin-ups.

Is it legal to use FMJ ammo for coyotes with deer season closed?

THAT SUCKS!

Got in 30 minutes on the exercise bike Wednesday evening. Wednesday's are my off days... Last night I had a 6 mile training run. Had to do it on the treadmill. The geniuses at my gym set the thermostats for their comfort rather than with consideration to people working out, so I was slow...

If a 73 year wants to ignore his own physical well-being, I support him 🤷🏻‍♂️ I would question why he is choosing to stir up embers in a fitness section of the forum. Kind of like the hippies that create accounts on gohunt.com to comment about articles there. Why???

e-callers are illegal?

I am not so sure this is accurate. A phone does not have to have paid service or a calling plan to make 911 calls. That is true and has been going back to at least the mid 90's. No service meaning no towers in range (usually). It MAY be possible that an AT&T phone with no reachable tower could...

I hear what you all are saying, but I have come to recognize that I am less worried about how long I live versus the quality of the time I have left. Losing all of this weight has shown me what I was missing while stuffing my gullet at the table. My time on this earth is determined by God...

I am happy to shoot or not shoot whatever you say if you let me hunt there ;)

My question is how old is your son? We talking talking about a twelve year old or a forty year old?

My only reliable partner is my wife. She hates lifting and loves running. I am the opposite... Races are OK, but the training means I have to spend time running I would rather be lifting or cross-training. For the half in February, I am running 5 days a week right now and need the two days off...
