    Good bye

    Most of us pay the same tolls. https://fox4kc.com/politics/ap-politics/ap-house-republicans-unveil-blueprint-to-extend-4-5-trillion-in-tax-cuts-and-lift-the-debt-ceiling/ Sounds like we all will be paying for the top .1% to get the most of this tax cut. No mention of ending taxes on tips...

    Must have powders

    I remember my Dad telling me that in the 40's and 50's his Dad used only 4831, 4895 and 335, all surplus for his rifles. It came in paper sacks from the hardware store. He would store it in old water pump fluid cans that looked just like the powder tins of the time. He also bought Pistol...

    South Dakota?

    Have a friend who was really liked the Black Hills. He was stationed at Ellsworth Air Force Base and talked about taking his older kids (scouts) camping, caving, rock climbing, target shooting. I imagine the politics will be more to your liking. For example SD reported zero abortions in the...

    Thoughts On Various Decisions

    "A lot of people are really screaming because someone is finally looking into their books" But that's not what's happening. Elon is bringing programmers, not accountants. Elon's just mad cause USAID wrote a report in September critical of Starlink.

    Thoughts On Various Decisions

    I want Medicare for all (get rid of parasitic insurance companies), slash the military budget by half (they never pass audits after all), tax billionaires at Eisenhower rates (90%, at a time when the US was booming), support college tuition like in the 60's, stop worrying about the 9 out of...

    375 Ruger with 300 Grain Sierra Gameking

    So does anyone have data for this combo, (375 ruger with 300 grain), using faster powders? The old IMR manual lists 375 H&H loads with SR4759, IMR 4227, IMR 4198, IMR 4320. I have these powders and would like to experiment with a bit lighter loads. I also have RX7. Quickload?

    Smokeless Powder ammo in Black Powder antique revolver?

    "I "think" I could come up with a nice light smokeless powder load for it, but maybe the old gun just deserves a proper diet of black powder & lead bullets. If I ever even shoot it." Sounds perfect for a "whiskey and pistols" weekend. Bedroll and campfire under the stars out in the central...

    Research article on differences in handloading vs factory loads (only lead-free was studied, but interesting nonetheless)

    I was sold on reloading when Winchester factory ammo gave me 3 MOA, Then my first reloads produced 1 MOA. This was in the late 90's. I would expect more from factory today.

    Smokeless Powder ammo in Black Powder antique revolver?

    Reminds me of my Dad's old damascus barrel shotgun. First shotgun he let me shoot. Black powder 16 gauge. Nowadays I don't think they even advise firing it with BP! My dad would use a stick to throw a #10 can into the air like a clay thrower. I would have to wait for the smoke to clear to see...

    Good bye

    At least you weren't banned for having an opinion. I got banned on another reloading forum for linking what i thought was a valuable article about the Covid Vaccine early in the pandemic. Pretty far a field from debating which gas check is best I imagine. In some places I have lived, fighting...

    Elon is at the VA today with his 6 kids. Awhile back he pledged to cut $115 billion fro the VA.

    Any of you work with the Small Business Administration. Received grants, loans, or have them help you get government contracts? Elon has just gained access to their files.

    Thoughts On Various Decisions

    If oil prices come down too much we will lose our refineries again like last time Trump got involved with OPEC. Then we will have another spike in gas prices. But as of this morning OPEC+ told Trump "no" to lowering prices. They also need a certain $per barrel to keep their countries running...

    New Bulldog 44 SPCL

    A friend carried one of those 44 special bulldogs in the back pocket of his stagged jeans when helicopter logging in Alaska. It was the smallest, lightest, out of the way thing that had a chance dissuading a bear. Hard cast bullets.

    Requiring liability policy to buy or possess firearms

    Washington used to be more practical, when it came to firearms. Even restrictive laws gave some thought to needed exceptions. Hunting with suppressors is allowed. Dogs can be used to retrieve wounded big game. Concealed Pistol Licenses are shall issue. Lately (like the rest of the country)...

    Fireforming Update- Ruger 375 brass

    They are a little short. The primer backs out if not into the lands. I will anneal them after the firing.
