    What time do you retirees get up?

    I haven't used an alarm clock forever though I do have one beside my bed so I know if I need to get up when I wake up. The internal clock has always gotten me up on time starting back for as long as I can remember. I normally go to bed around 23:00hrs and I'm awake around 0400-0500. Here of late...

    Damage Deer Down

    Great story and happy to hear you weren't injured in your hill side slip and slide. It can be very scary at our age when we slip and start sliding down hills out of control. 10 years ago I had a similar experience hunting Elk but there was no snow on the ground. The ground just gave out under...

    Old 20 gauge.

    Beautiful little shot gun. Europe would have said you should have got a Fox. (lol) Always loved those little shot guns and could shoot the heck out of them. I guess the factory stock just fit me right being right-handed. My dad had one but was in 12ga and would lock it up when we would go bird...

    Sticking cases in die

    Plus 1, never have had a stuck case since I started using it. Use to use RCBS sizing honey and would stick cases regularly. the only thing I use a spray lubricant for is to lube the inside of the case mouths of .45acp since I use a custom powder funnel that expands the case mouths and super...

    Good bye

    I've been here a long time and honestly never knew there as a sub forum and glad I didn't and still don't won't to know. There are lots of forums I visit and when they get crappy, I say my piece and leave them hanging not going back. Some forums have features where you can block or disregard the...

    Another chrono hits the market

    When they get more affordable, I would like one but for now I can't justify the cost since all I need to know is the velocity of my ammo.

    Heads up Burris sale!!!!

    I bought an E-1 3-9 with the red dot feature, and it is very clear with the red dot being very round, with the dot turned off you have a small black target dot reticule. It's a great scope for low light conditions when you have trouble picking up the cross hairs. I have it mounted on my 35AI.

    Smokeless Powder ammo in Black Powder antique revolver?

    I wouldn't shoot modern fast burning powder because it builds pressure fast, even wimpy loads. Should it come unlocked you would get a piece of brass flying out at your face. Ther should be loads for triple 7 or other black powder substitute powder that you could use safely.
