As the old shooters who were in the know 'bout shotguns said of the Sixteen; "Swings like a 20, hits like a 12!"

Pitchy: have you ever utilized a solar kiln for drying or just let the wood air dry? I recall the sawyers of my grandfather's and father's generations saying that for air drying, it was at least 1 year per inch of thickness. I can still see the open on all 4 sides roofed "sheds" with the lumber stic...

From what hunters who shoot a .32 Spec’l. and the .35 Remington tell me, it seems the .32 Spec’l. and 35 Remington down range performance on game exceeds their paper ballistic tables….

Bruce: "NEW .32/40 BRASS FROM HUNTINGTON DIE SPECIALTIES "Nothing pumps new life into an obsolete cartridge quite like getting some new brass.

I wonder if it will be appealed? The Politicos realize such laws are against the constitution and that eventually they will get overturned, but it takes years for them to run the system. When it gets found unconstitutional, they will create some other stupid law to fill in the gap. After the shootin...

I believe the esteemed Blaine is on to something. And also do no forget that while the shooters are very good marksmen, they are also using the very best in shooting equipment, two very powerful combinations. This thread makes me think of the ""Wasserburger Mile Shoot" scheduled for Labor Day 2020 -...

Better hope and pray that this virus does not worsen and cause the hospitals to go into TRIAGE.

TRIAGE: the sorting of and allocation of treatment to patients and especially battle and disaster victims according to a system of priorities designed to maximize the number of survivors.

If you do have his DD214 and not some other record, the DD214 should show Ranger Tab and Special Forces. A friend of mine has both along with other training/schools on his DD214.

For a while there was a “Dixie Boy” (not sure of capitalization) complaining about how he was mistreated – ??denied tenure?? – , moving issues, and political complaints and comments on the Ruger Forum.

As marlinman said, it's all in what and how it is asked and who is asked.

Rifle and Pistol Association (CRPA) about an anti-fi...

And the world wide condemnation of the violence by the media and the moderate/peaceful Muslims is deafening!

JNYork is correct, especially about what his gunsmith told him!.

"LC 68" is the military designation from ammunition made at the Lake City arsenal in 1968. Where did your brother in law get this ammunition?

Such people not only vote, but they reproduce! Such incidents always remind me of what C.S.

Speaking about the 30 WCF – aka .30-30 – I have been told that it is inadequate for deer and at best only a 100 yard cartridge.
