Thanks for your attention to this matter, Bill

My late wife was scared off her hormone replacement by the hype. GRRR HATE HATE!

Waste of time figuring out how an '06 figured in our shooting: that rifle and shooter were just decoys to divert our attention from some Deep State actor. Another Sirhan Sirhan so to speak--"shooter" still doing time for killing RFK who was 6' out front of RFK while RFK was being killed by...

Lord I know whereof you speak Bill. The 5# bag of Hoody's we got from COSTSO was a vital staple all during my tree cutting career and they have disappeared, also leaving us Oregon boys stuck with those puny Hampton Farms things. Gotta' be a workaround?

I dropped by yesterday to see if we were "up". Watched the snake chase his tail for 20 seconds or so and just went on in disgust. But dang, today it seems we are functioning! It is good to hear you olde pharts a going on again. 3 of the grandboys been joining me with levers and singles (fe...

Yep, ya' just used the wrong glue Jim. My old 336A has been running 30+ yrs with a piece of spoon handle glued with an epoxy that was pre-JB. Won our Big Lever match for a grandkid a couple months ago.

Andy, I like your goal of getting some 'growth' in the old site. And it hurts to say this, but as 'quirky' as this old site runs these days we are gonna' slowly loose our old regulars and sure as heck never keep any new folks. Too danged slow and frustrating....

Whoo --I had been experiencing some serious withdrawal symptoms. Thanks for getting us back up and running Andy!

OOPS --did a double post 'cause "it" never posted the first one while i was on-line...

Pierre Kory (of FLCCC fame) has a Substac where he writes articles on various health things. He did a series on Chlorine Dioxide -- apparently it is another of those cheap drugs that Big Pharma is willing to kill to keep word from getting out about. It can cure malaria in two days flat, which could ...

earlmck

I can't imagine ever taking another shot of any kind ever again. I'll just keep the vit D levels up and give the old immune system a go at everything. And Piller, you might have a go at your shingles spot with chlorine dioxide (I got mine from Amazon for about $30). I had the dang shingles trying to...

Hey, I think I'm going to be able to make a reply! This is just the second time this week I have been able to open any posts and (if it lets this one through) the first time in a couple weeks I have been able to make a "reply".

Something there is that doesn't like us.

Been lots of elk killed with a 44 WCF but the trouble with it is that it isn't going to put a hole clear through the elk and so you end up with not much of a blood trail. And the critters have a bad habit of being able to go a couple hundred yards even with a heart shot and that can be a dang long w...

Well I'll be danged. Vermont!

I didn't know that.

There are dark forces doing their level best to divide us Americans into various hate groups so we don't notice our Deep State common enemy. Like feeding us a queer fuzzy-wuzzy Antifa for a Charlie Kirk shooter. This poll fits right in with that theme. Polls are their favorite thing to fake us out, ...

earlmck

Looks like that nice old girl found a better home!

earlmck

Dang, that was an impressive show of analysis by Martenson. He makes a good case for a shooter much more to the side of Kirk, which is good since none of us were buying the "30/06 from the front with no exit wound" horse pucky. And I had not seen anybody else show how the video of the stoo...

My thought is that there were quite a few 'facilitators' involved, and that the texting was a deliberate attempt to make the assassin look like the classic 'lone gunman'. What I don't know is whether those facilitators were merely the far-left crowd that we see so full of hate and violence, or if t...

earlmck

Yes, I found this quite fascinating. And if they have some success lessening autism in kids -- well that'd be a serious help to 21st century America...

earlmck

Yep -- one of those miracles. I'll bet that bullet is in good enough shape they can match it to the very gun they found wrapped in a towel in the bushes...

earlmck

Now they have released a batch of texts between Robinson and his boyfriend. Pretty damning. But none of my grandkids/great-grandkids would text anything like that kind of language. Sounds more like composed by a 40-yr old LEO to me. We're getting the 'shroom treatment again. And again. And again....

earlmck

Dang, now that fellow may just get the ancient '73. Would love to have that old 38 WCF shooting good.

earlmck

yeah, maybe. We're sure getting strange details and updates bang on cue. Here's something else. It's a slow-motion clip of the shooting from the front. If you watch it carefully you can see blood seeping behind his RIGHT ear. It looks like an entry wound near his right ear, traveling down and exiti...

Now wait a minute guys. This fellow wasn't packing the rifle in that stairwell picture. He wasn't carrying an old-style bolt=action 30/06 when he dropped off the roof and limped away. So who moved that rifle around for him? Doesn't this smell like the classic CIA/Mossad operation where the real shoo...

earlmck

No, not gonna' forget that one. That was about the last time this country was unified. I hope we are close to finding out who really did it to us.

earlmck

Welcome Wolfshead! Nice pictures of a fine rifle. I agree with Jim T -- with the receiver sight and cartridge-holding butt sock you are well above "run of the mill".

earlmck

So I'm off travelling and in a motel here in Kingman, AZ. I'm a fair hypocrite and will admit to being a vet if it saves me money, so when I asked what would get me a good rate the fellow at the desk asked if I was AARP or a vet. I don't AARP but allowed as how I was a vet, which got me $20 per nigh...

earlmck

I wouldn't wear the shirt either. Someone sent the picture to me. For a guy who likes to advertise about his life, that's fine. Just not me. I enjoyed my time in and left when it was up because I had enough. I'll bet the fellow who designed that fine shirt wasn't even a vet. At least, not one of ou...

I actually had a mentor -- a college roommate whose dad had taught him the ropes. We mounted the press to the window sill in our dorm in the middle of Oregon State University campus. Might not have got permission if we'd asked, but we didn't get raided by ATF swat either. Different world back then. ...

earlmck

I probably have one of those 214's stashed somewhere but I couldn't make myself wear the T-shirt. Is it a "' 'Nam Vet" thing? I still kinda' cringe when somebody says "Thank you for your service". And of my old vet buds -- I only know one of us who'll advertise at all. All the re...

My three oldest grandkids are hitting their 40's now and after flirting with various bolt guns and black guns are now getting interested in Gpa's guns -- old singles, pumps, and levers. And reloading for them. Youngest of these has been shooting one of my 25/20's in the "quarter bore" matc...

earlmck

I have neither ammo, components or dies to load for the cartridge... otherwise, I probably wouldn't be able to resist the several temptations I've had since. But Griff -- 32WCF brass and dies are readily available these days. Not exotic at all. Graf's at this moment has 4 brands of dies and 2 style...

earlmck

Now the old Remington m14 pumps (of which I am a fan) bottom feed and include a slick little "step" on the loading gate that holds the cartridge in place while loading without need of the thumb.

Right fine episode Bill, thanks for that. I'll have to put Lincoln on my list of places to visit if I get down that way again. And maybe I'll break out my enchilada recipe for my nest cookin' session.

Hepburn buttplates are nicely shaped, but narrow and small, so I may also look into the BACO butt pad. I use a PAST strap on pad for some of my higher recoiling singleshots with crescent buttplates and it works well, but I often am adjusting how it sits on my shoulder. Yeah, I use the PAST pad and ...

earlmck

Val, that is a real beauty. That would be just the ticket for our 1200 yard buffalo target that has been kickin' everybody's butt at our shoot. The fellow who won the match last Saturday got 4 hits out of 13 shots and he got way more than anyone else (I didn't get a single hit). And Bill, I've been ...

earlmck

Yep, young cougar lookin' for dinner.

Val's post about the older rifles not stabilizing 70 grain and heavier bullets got me curious so I checked the twist on both my rifles (tight patch, how far to get a turn method). 1:14 on both. As I said, they both like the 70 grainer fine but I've never shot anything lighter. And I would still be h...

earlmck

Thank goodness Starline makes a run of 32/20 occasionally. Most of my 25/20's are formed from that...

earlmck

Ya know, I never really checked my twist rate. I just thought they were all 1:14. I shot the old Lyman 87 (90 with my alloy) grainer for many years and then I got a 70 grain gang mould from Arsenal and both my old girls prefer the 70. And the 6-cavity thing turns out a lot of bullets in a short time...

Friend Butch and I drove over past John Day and walked into Strawberry Lake 'cause he hadn't been there for 70 years. Today I'm all sore. These birthdays are gettin' harder and I still haven't got enough under my belt to qualify for "old coot" status -- still just early eighties.

Dang, a bunch of us fellers were having some "withdrawal" issues. Big thanks Dave! And thanks Andy and Paul for gettin' us back up and runnin'.

Earl, glad you are all clear and ready to shoot steel. While you are understandably giving credit to the chlorine dioxide, don't fail to give plenty of credit to the toughest, hardest-working retired range management specialist I ever had the pleasure of cutting juniper with. 8) Bill, the danged sh...

earlmck

Wonder if the 12" twist rate is a misprint. Seems peculiar to go from "stoooopid slow" twist to "stoopid fast". You'd think the 18" twist on their revolvers would give them some hint as to what is needed.

earlmck

Well dag nab it. I was in Fredricksburg last year for a cousin reunion/eclipse viewing. Can't believe the cousins didn't tell me we had Cimmaron there to visit!

earlmck

Thanks for the good thoughts guys -- i'm pretty well cleared up now. That chlorine dioxide saved my bacon (or head in this case) and is surely worth getting some to stash in the medical kit. Before starting the chlorine dioxide I was one miserable sucker with shingles over the right side of my head ...

Ya' know, that would be an excellent test question for your doctor. What he should say is "no, having the Covid conveys far better immunity than the shot ever could and also avoids the dangers from the MRNA technology that have lead to increased death rates throughout the vaccinated world."...
