But do they make it here? Do we produce the raw materials?
We need Trump more than ever to get our powder production back up to snuff!!!

GunnyMack

Where does the nitro cellulose come from, what country? Why don't the powder companies make their own? Sure it would cost them to get a plant set up but cheaper in the long run maybe. Is the foreign made stuff not being allowed into the US( think gun control antis) I'm sure the freighters are not sl...

GunnyMack

I thought shorts were different but figured long & long rifle were the same and nowadays nobody is chambering for shorts anymore.

GunnyMack

We don't shoot box birds but I can tell you as the birds get smaller the hit ratio goes down! The guys in our club don't like chukar and Hungarian partridge. Why? Because they can't shoot worth beans. I watch them miss nice easy straight away chukars with their 12s & 20s , two shots and I'll pok...

GunnyMack

Yup, 1:16 is the standard twist for 22 rimfire.

GunnyMack

I shot Rock Mountain once years ago if I remember right... in the Poconos?

GunnyMack

Well I am envious. 8) Come join us shoot all this stuff and then tell me if you’re still envious . The wear and tear on my shoulders from years and years of shotgun rifle heavy recoil are slowly beginning to take their toll . As long as I take a couple weeks between events it isn’t so bad , but if ...

GunnyMack

Put a little TABASCO on that chip and it'll go away!

The best condiment ever!!!

Glad it's more to your liking than what you expected!

I personally believe that things like CWD occur because nature wants to adjust things. Things much more complex than humans can understand.

Yes my thoughts as well, Mother Nature knows better than we do!

GunnyMack

My favorite is a High Standard Field King pump. It was the first long gun I bought when I was deemed legal age. Some how or other a second one found its way into my safe. I dont remember buying it, I do remember looking at it though...

GunnyMack

There must be a lot more 8s out there than we thought if all of these venues are having events. That's cool!

GunnyMack

The ' dope ' used on the skin was essentially thermite. The Mythbusters did an episode about it and tried a few different dope mixtures, some burned some didn't but the mix high in aluminum & iron oxide sure did.

GunnyMack

Ten and a half hours?! I didn't know GB was that big

GunnyMack

That should work for things that go bump in the night!

GunnyMack

Blame it on Murphy!
No the big question is where did you use it last? That's where you'll find all 10 rolls

GunnyMack

My grandfather was there and saw it burn. He owned a trucking business, I think he was delivering gasoline or diesel. The following day he took my dad and aunt to see the remains.

GunnyMack

This was one of the reasons for moly coating back in the 90s. Of course that fell by the wayside.

GunnyMack

Yuck- I hate mayo!
Give me Tabasco!!

GunnyMack

Hmm, interesting!
I'll have to start looking at tree limbs.

GunnyMack

You can still flyfish for panfish Bill! I only fished once for Kokanee, didn't catch any.

I started a 'guide net' form but never got back to it, larger hoop and longer handle. I suppose it could also serve as a boat net.

GunnyMack

Just be happy you don't have to clean the litter box for that puddy-tat!

When I lived in CO a fresh lion track in the snow by the house I was renting, made darn sure to pack a gun while outside after that. I didn't leave the dog out alone either- she could and did carry a glock but couldn't use it!

GunnyMack

Ok Bill here you for you. I watched a couple videos about steam bending wood for fish nets. Figured it was easy enough and made a steam box. I needed a heat source to make the steam so I cobbled together a spout extension for a teapot heated on the woodstove. It worked- poorly but enough steam allow...

GunnyMack

Gotta sneak between the ribs, otherwise an 8gr pellet would probably stop. Even at 1000+ fps. Unless it was one of those with the missile like pointy inserts... My RWS 350 will break the sound barrier with light pellets. Last summer I had a pesky fox hanging around eyeballing my litter of puppies. C...

GunnyMack

That must be so ugly my tablet won't open the link- says it's a corrupted link!

GunnyMack

Yup. Heat from a lamp and linseed oil is how I've seen it done. Steam can also work- that's how I bend when I make trout nets.
3" of drop is a lot more than comfortable.

GunnyMack

Not many still use CUP, instead they use PSI, converting one to the other is not an exact formula as far as I know, but I'm not a ballistician and I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn so I would go slowly at top end loads. Someone here might have data that could point you in the right direction? I've said...

GunnyMack

AND this poor guy didn't have a firearm so the ridiculousness of this is just moronically stupid. Fine, confiscate the ammo and send him home, ban him from your country if you like but the big question is why didn't this ammo get found when he was going through TSA screening here!?

GunnyMack

Yeah Doc that would be a hoot to buy out a shop but I bet red flags would be going off at NICS ! Next thing you would be getting a visit from the FBI & ATF.

GunnyMack

Scott, I took would like to hear the whole story about your double!

GunnyMack

That is promising news indeed!
It would be nice to get t/c stuff again!

GunnyMack

My SPECIAL 44 special and my favorite knife for deer, D2 tool steel.

GunnyMack

Was your #1 a factory chambering or did you have it rebarreled?

GunnyMack

Ruger #1 eh? Hmmm... 475 eh?
No idea if I would ever use that for anything but im intrigued.

GunnyMack

Yup, a Foster type slug is what it is.

Yes sir, that load will do the trick on Bambi.

GunnyMack

They certainly seem quite accurate, you'll have to stretch them out a little further and see what they do.

GunnyMack

Ok guys, the puppies are now off the infrared cam so it's color now. I went to visit today and my how they have grown! Eyes are open. Starting to hear. The drunken sailors have begun to learn how to walk and it's a riot to watch.

GunnyMack

DING DING DING- I THINK WE HAVE A WINNER!
They sure seem to be accurate, what distance Scott?

GunnyMack

Parts of Conagher was filmed on a friend's ranch in Colorado.

The Quiet Man is hands down a favorite of mine. El Dorado as well as Rio Bravo.

YES to Mel Brooks!!

GunnyMack

Probably because they are muzzle loaders, the feds don't consider front stuffers a firearm- YET !!

GunnyMack

You have your work cut out for yourself that's for sure!
I think you are going to need a bigger lead supply

GunnyMack

Question nowadays is what don't they hate?

GunnyMack

Granted I haven't delivered hundreds of puppies but of the 4 litters I've had and the 3 or 4 I have helped with I can say that if you are the first thing a pup smells it will remember you! I figured that out when helping with litters, one pup I delivered would come to me when I would go visit. It's ...

GunnyMack

Both appear in great shape! Both for their ages and for being shipped .
We are waiting for range reports...

GunnyMack

Sorry to hear this Lenn!
We do miss you here!!

GunnyMack

The only rifle that has given me fits with case failure (neck splits) has been my 257Ackley Improved.i know it is due to age and work hardening. It was all brass from factory 257 Roberts that I shot to fire from. I'd love to get new brass but geeze it's expensive, need to take out a mortgage to get ...

GunnyMack

I'd make a point of dropping off bagels or doughnuts at office once in a while just to show they are appreciated!

GunnyMack

Looks great to me Bill!
Best bacon I ever had was from a big ol cut boar I shot on one of those game farms. I had it cured and smoked by the butcher. Just fantastic flavor. The pig had 18lb hams and they had to cut them in order to wrap fir the freezer. Oh the ribs.... man now I wanna go shoot a pig!

GunnyMack

S&W now has a 22 mag pistol with 30 round magazines, you could use up your stock pile easily!!

GunnyMack

Stories- we need stories!
Welcome.

GunnyMack

Bill I have found that Remington hulls and Winchester wads don't play well together in 28ga. Cheddite hulls are very good straight wall hulls !
