  1. I wish we could see some LRP and LPP somewhere. Found a place with cases and cases of my primary rifle powders last weekend- IMR4350, H4350, H4831SC and IMR 3031. Cases of HP38, W296, Titegroup, CFE223, W231, H110, Varget.... a few other powders... Small amounts of SPP and SRP. $10.99 per 100 count.
  2. Bacon solves a lot of culinary obstacles.
  3. I think it’s pretty clear the FBI, CIA, the justice department and the US military are at odds with individual liberty and freedom. There may be a lot of good people in these places with good intentions and noble ideals, but the resulting actions of these entities over the last 100 years or so indicates allegiances and purposes which disregard ordinary American folk.. I find it a pity to waste one’s youth, and the most productive part of one’s life, within these agencies, or today’s military for that matter.
  4. Or….The technology just isn’t there yet, but when it arrives, we’ll have the last laugh!
  5. I'll just wait here now for the saloon brawl to commence.....
  6. Chicago-area Tesla charging stations lined with dead cars in freezing cold: 'A bunch of dead robots out here' (foxbusiness.com)
  7. Maybe they can return and spread his ashes in the "Valley of the Twin Peaks". Just a thought...
  8. "When they asked what he wanted to do for his milestone birthday, he thought of his days as a G.I. and joked that he wanted them to take him somewhere to see 'some behind.' " 'I have never seen him cry, and we saw him cry there. His tears just came rolling down,' his niece Josie Ramirez, 63.
  9. “Interference fit” term is jumping out at me as to what Traditions said. But I could be wrong. This was on an in-line muzzle loader Im not a machinist or good mechanic so the lingo slips from me.
  10. Said the civil engineer…..
  11. I would not concern myself with removing the breech plug. Some of the imports, we found out, have a screw on breech plug/tang that either they punch it to lock it in place, or the threads distort upon tightening, so even with heating the breech will not remove it. We tried this on an old Traditions barrel made in Spain some years back with a badly pitted bore. Thought we were smart and would disassemble it for a deep clean. It would not come off, and I have never had an issue with any breech plug before, even with heat, from mildly hot to cherry hot. The barrel was about to twist and we were using an excess amount of force and body weight. Emailed them and they said do not attempt. It was not meant to be removed and reinstalled, even though it screwed in. As stated, and this was 10 years ago, I forget exactly, but it somehow locks itself somehow, and again I think it was to do with the threads. (We have bolts we use at work that work similarly when torqued, threads give and cannot be removed) I do not load black powder cartridges anymore. Powder for muzzleloader, I like the 3f Powders I have shot- Graf, KIK, Goex, Goex Cartridge I really liked KIK and Graf. Goex is good. I liked the Goex Cartridge in 45-70 and 40-65 a lot. I notice Swiss/Schutzen loads other shot were hotter, more velocity, cleaner burning.
  12. Appears to have fallen face first into a tackle box….
  13. I don't really get into, jazz, or understand it, or know a lick about music theory. But I know talent when I see and hear it.
  14. If he’s like anyone else, he’s in debt and has bills to pay. If he’s like any other lobbyist, there’s obligations and promises to fulfill the public isn’t privy to know, with consequences if he doesn’t. I doubt he flew with Epstein, but who knows. I just watched the elephant hunt video of him and his ol’ lady. Hard to believe they were dumb enough to release that video to the public as it clearly revealed their lack of familiarity with weapons and hunting. They mays as well been a couple of 3rd graders learning to square dance.
  15. I doubt it, they have some momentum so will use this to further discredit the NRA and attempt to bleed it absolutely dry. Replacing the NRA with anything of its scale, size, resources and organization is about impossible. Let’s say the NRA totally evaporated today. People would either choose from a multitude of groups or abstain entirely. There’d be several splintered groups jockeying for position, with weaker influence compared to the NRA’s current collective power.
  16. I can’t wait to read the touching tribute to him in the next American Hunter. Brilliant!
  17. If only we had Lepetomane instead of Lapierre....one can daydream....
  18. He'll get some kind of special award, wait and see. Now, he ain't my cup of tea, but some good did come about under his watch.
