RLTV runs this cooking show where this chef cooks the old fashion way, in a big fireplace. Uses a lot of cast iron and eqpt from 200 years ago.
I know there's a lot of dutch oven guys here, and the chef, Walter Staib sounds to me like an old German. Lots of history is part of the show. - Brian

I got in the habit of keeping extra glasses and ears in the car years ago.
That and I like to shoot on 1Jan, 4July, and on 9/11. I've not missed A 9/11 yet. Its skills maintenance. - Brian

My story is similar, as I never knew my father either. When he left after the divorce, never saw him after that. I was in pre-school then. Missed out on a lot growing up without a dad. Still has effects on me today and I'm hitting 55 this year. I choose to believe it was better that way, One can get...

I've known guys that take a multi-function plastic watch, remove the bands, and carry it in their pockets.

For 2014, Jaegaer-LeCoulter is introducing a pocket watch, but you're gonna have to dig deep for that one.

Blaine, Griff, Ysable Kid et al, I currently have a watch out to Govbergwatchrepair.com Its a Wakmann divers chronogragh that I bought in '78. Turns out that watch was made by Breitling (hot darn !) and has a Valjoux 236 movement. Anyway these guys are replacing a few parts and I expect return next ...

Nirvana music is what you listen too when you watch the Mahabharata. I'm partial to the Peter Brooke version, it's only 6 hours long - gets a lot of 45's & 38's loaded. - Brian

Enough of this noise, take your 22 and put them on a Black and Decker bench in a plastic vise and find out just how well this stuff shoots! 22 are notoriously over built. ( but do it from a distance and use a string).

Good luck - 3 Fingered Jack

I did my SP trigger job the old fashioned way, 20-30K rounds of dry fire. That and shooting bad guys on tv. :) I do need to get serious about finding a good magnum load, and a good 38 load for it. And sight work. My SP shoots 4-5 inches low at 15 yards. :( My SP is the pistol that sits unloaded in t...

I think these big snakes should be great testing media for reverse HB WC. Or solid DEWC at 900-1000 fps.
How does 230 ball compare to a 185 Gold Dot at 1150?

You now have a summer research project. We need pictures, no faces. - Brian

Could you put up large potted plants? that way you are putting in "landscaping" and not animal shields.
Geese can be very aggressive "til you knock 'em with a #14 Bucheimer "Big Texan." Yeah, that'll mellow 'em down some.

A wrist-rocket with steel balls or some 50 cal muzzle balls might have a better thwack than a pellet gun. Maybe less damage from skin penetration, but more pain. Course I'd be heeled long before I went out to do my David bit.

When I lived in SoDak, we'd put a splash of household ammonia before closing up the trashbags. after biting and getting a snoot full or two, the critters left our trash alone. Should work with trash cans too. - Brian

Doing these classes is my idea of a vacation. I've done classes with Ayoob, Farnam, Snarcy & the Gnome (God rest him), Andy Stafford, and Bob Taylor. That and I'm off to RangeMasters for the Tactical Conference the end of the month.

Quinn said his came with two front sights. I handled one at the Dallas Safari Convention today and the rep said it came with a tall front sight for .357 loads and a short one was available for purchase to use with .38 level loads. Nice revolver but I've handled GPs with better triggers. I also hand...

In a rem 788, there is not a lot to worry about. Built like a bank vault. It had better be 'cuz I miss quoted the load. I just rechecked and the load is supposed to be 3.1 of TG, and not 3.5. At 3.1 the psi is running 4000psi. And here I am running a 30% overload throwing 4gr. :oops: -Brian :D

BrianSH

In the Hodgdon annuals, they show 3.5 of Tightgroup under a 55gr jacketed, for around 1000+fps. I load 4gr for two reasons, I like to live on the edge sometimes, that and 4gr is what I burn under a 200gr swc in my H&K USP45, and don't want to change the powder thrower. Sounds like a cap gun goin...

When that store opened, it added to my Saturday morning rounds that I make to visit all the pre-loved irons out there. Bad news - Leo's got a Kimber 1911 in 10mm that I don't need to buy.

She does have a following on this side of the pond. Its amazing that no other animal works for mankind the way a dog does, and in so many diverse ways.

Take a good look at Power Pistol. It is a schouse slower than Unique, but finer grained and meters better. I read in an issue of Handloader where one of the writers was touring the CCI plant. He was told that CCI loads more PP than all other powders combined. You'll find loads starting with 380, and...

Its Sept 11 so I go shooting - I've not missed an aniversary yet. My range has a plate rack that makes head shot training easier. Too easy, so I added another 40-50 feet of rope to the regular 40 foot reset lever rope. In my day, 9mmP would penetrate a vest that would stop a 45, and you had to go up...

I'd drop the Unique and go for the Power Pistol. It does everything Unique can, and its finer grained and meters better. Charles Petty has written about PP used for target loads in 45acp, and Alliant uses PP for its +P 45acp loads. Blue Dot covers 9mm and 38 Special rather well too on the low end, a...

Keep in mind that men often suffer from ferrite overload and we have no way to reduce the iron in our bodies( except Blaine though ). Donating blood fixes this. Using cast iron increases the iron load in our bodies. I use cast iron cookwear every day. I have quite a few different sizes and kinds. N...

That answer of course leads to questions of armaments. i would think a walking stick at minimum, and a pocket full of rocks. Maybe an atlatl, slug shot, or David type sling. Anything like an eagle that could carry off a newborn kid? -Brian
