I have heard of Outlaw, Josey Wales, Tom Horn etc. Our annual match we offer Tom Horn. Single shot or lever, BP or smokeless all big bore calibers. About 30% of our shooters shoot these categories. I'll stir the pot. Going to EOT or the like is a great experience. I never thought I'd win. But shooting with some of the nations best was an experience. So someone wants to shoot EOT but can't shoot a shotgun. At the end of the day its 4 minutes +/- of penalties. There is no way they would be in contention for a some bling. Let them shoot. Same for someone in a wheelchair with someone assisting them. For many folk its the fun factor.

They need someway to spend all the membership money. They are compensated and expenses to get to the meetings are covered.

A Yugo was a cheap car. Look how it lasted!

The desk man at the Continental has been dead for 2 years! AI/CGI. I predict it will flop like the Ghostbusters with an all woman cast.

Last night they showed video of the accident. Apparently they video the approach to Reagan. The Blackhawk was behind the plane. And it just flew right into the back/tail. And everything immediately went straight down. Something was wrong somewhere.

I always found it interesting. Christians killing Christians to prove they were the best/right Christians!

I see posts like this all the time on Facebook. I always ask, 'can someone define what a living wage is and what it pays for'? Never get an answer.

1914 Ford offered $5/day for workers. That was unheard of. They brought out the local Guard/Army to help control the crowds wanting to work. 1968 I went to work at a gas station while still in HS Senior year. $1.5/hr min. wage. Within a few weeks he hands me the keys and says your now night manager. Shift was 4 to 10pm. I got bumped to $1.65/hr. Sure helped buying parts for my 55 Chevy .

I don't think I've ever seen a steel hull sailing ship!

THe plant and its flowers are highly toxic to animals. And humans of eaten in quanity!

No one mentioned "gun" friendly laws. That will eliminate Washington, Oregon, maybe Colorado.

For my Ipone, I use WAZE. Free app. Not only great directions, it will find the fastest route, show traffic jams, and where the cops are! If you're in a hurry it also adjusts time to destination.

Back in the 80's I was doing a lot of projects at March AFB in Riverside, CA. At the time it was a SAC base. Watched many buffs take off and land. Quite a sight. While I was working there someone decided that March was too close to the reach of a submarine NUC so they shut down SAC and moved them inland. At the time we were scratching our heads as to why after 15 years someone figured that out.

I did the math, range is 20m miles!

Thats what I did.

Didn't say it was a rule. I answered the question. This is what we do. If someone is a 25 second shooter and they shoot 16 something went wrong somewhere. Either they didn't shoot all the rounds, or the timer/timer operator screwed up. Logic.

They have hired exterminators for the out of control Iguana population. They use air rifles.

Creeker, the example I gave was for Badlands Bud.

Check the shot count on the timer. If it doesn't match the number of shots needed for the stage,,,,,shooter is required to re-shoot it. At an annual match we had a really fast shooter shot and insane fast time. People on the posse got up in arms. 'No one shoots that fast'. A number of really fast shooters were on his posse. Shot count was right. Match director and Posse leader and shooter agreed to go back to the stage. Re-shoot it. lf the shooter is within a 1/2 second of the original time, the time will stand. They went back and he shot a slightly faster time. The first time was recorded and everyone was in aw........

A big difference in the "artistry" and tradition between the 2 bows. The English bow has knots and imperfect wood, but it could still be shaped. To me the difference in power was the Japanese bow used the bow to create force. While the English bow depends on the length of the pull and the bow. It just seemd it tok way more effort ot pull the English bow.

I agree. A wonderful episode. Filled with a lot of emotions. When I retired I felt the same way. After 45 years, what have I done to make a difference?

I hate to break it to you but Lee Child is a big British Liberal and has voiced his disdain for Trump! what ya going to read now?

We have the Stewart Indian School in Carson City! It's been abandoned and now several buildings are being converted to some City uses. There is a museum. I did some design work there to create some offices. The work was going to be done by Inmates from the prison. The place has a weird vibe to it. And yes the truth is the religious schools beat the righteousness into the kids. All the schools role was to educate, reading and writing English, and also to make them abandon their language, religion, and "instill" the white culture into them. Not good places for kids at all.

I also have never used a baffle. I mount the BP container directly to the loading bar.

The Smith changed out the internals to match the originals. No adjustment of the existing parts.
