Took a few liberties with my last order to vistaprint.com. There is also a design on the back.

That is very cool. How many do you have to order to get your personal design?

I'm in...how do you make this happen?

Edit: Okay, WildCatter, assuming you read this: You're the baby daddy with this thing, so What/How/Why is this rig such a tack-driver, even in the hands of your average lunatic out here? What kind of monster have you created???? ;) ;) ;)

OK, Commander Fast and Furious. It's paying attention to detail, barrel twist, and shooter's like you. If it were more intended for the really heavy bullets 325gr+, then the twist would have had to of been far different, as it is the 24t was a trade-off, especially when one considers the hundreds of bullet choices we have. So, I'd say 500gr bullets would be just OK, in a 24t for accuracy, but then again, my own thoughts are, all of the Big Bore AR's are all done by 375gr, certainly by 405gr, that is for proper stabilization of the bullet vs powder capacity. Not that you can;t make Ranger Ricks 700gr bullets do something, but Diminishing Returns becomes a large factor. In other words, and I repeat..."I can make a bowling Ball come out the end of an AR Barrel, but then the only thing in danger are you toes"..

I may regret this, but . . .

For those of you interested, I ordered this coffee mug from http://vistaprint.com. I used my avatar on one side and made up a "Thumper" logo for the other.

The cost was as follows:

Basic coffee mug $ 6.99 (on sale, 50% off)
Upload front design $ 4.99
Upload back design $ 4.99
Print back of mug $ - -- (sometimes there is a charge for this)
Shipping $ 7.00
--------
Total $24.00

The mug was on sale at half price. If I reordered the exact mug today, it would cost $13.99 (full price of mug - no upload charges for the designs) plus shipping, which would be about $7 for a total of $21. There may be tax in some states. Now vistaprint runs specials almost daily and getting mugs for 50% off (or one free even) comes around pretty frequently.

If anyone wants me to order my design for them, let me know how many you want. I will let you know the cost. You can pay into my wife's PayPal account (I will add a buck for the PayPal commission) using a credit card, and I can have the mug(s) shipped to you. I can wait for a discounted offer, but these things only last for about 48 hours, so you have be fast to confirm your order and make your payment. If $22 and my design are OK with you, I can order it for you any time.

If you only want the Thumper logo, let me know that. I can price out that option as above, or I can send you the image and you can order your own (see below).

PM me with what you are interested in and your address for shipping.

If you want to make your own rug (with the thumper logo and/or your own avatar), go to http://vistaprint.com, register on the site, select mugs from the products list, upload your design (it needs to be a 300 dpi jpg image), and away you go. There is a template for the mug on the site that gives you the dimensions you need for your image.
