Anytime I've ever shipped anything like 500ct boxes of bullets or heavy items, I always packed them so that they were tightly packed and had no chance of creating inertia type damage though movement within the package. I selected a well-made (and retaped by me) cardboard box that's ID is 1" (mol) over the size of the bullet boxes (on all sides of bullet boxes). I then use cardboard baffles on top, bottom and sides with the bullet boxes in the middle. Made it so there's no way it could slide or gain inertia energy. Several folks thanked me for the packaging, one guy told me that he was going to charge me for razor knife blades from cutting all of the tape.....but everyone got what they paid for intact, undamaged and as advertised.

Not a Meme but can be made into one!

And as the obesity rate of Americans is increasing, they'll be using the S & W 500 Magnum soon!

I would have preferred to order from Scarlett but the website doesn't list any bullets in .45 ACP that aren't coated. I'm sure that Scarlett packs her bullets properly and professionally as she and Tommy are professionals. I am currently using Tommy's custom made earplugs and have been for many, many years. Waimea also packaged his bullets properly and professionally and offered non-coated bullets but, sadly, sold the business to pursue other, hopefully more fun, endeavors. Personally, I don't care for the coated bullets and would rather not use them if other options are available. Nothing to do with smell though.

Al I'm sending you a PM. I thoroughly suggest deleting your personal info from the post above.

Doc would have defiled himself for sure just to get the memory of spending $300 on Bourbon. Pretty cool though.

I'm not sure anymore. I bought these about 15 - 18 years ago. I don't remember if I was going to use them for a Marlin or a Uberti 73. I actually bought three different heights and the first one I opened was perfect for my needs. I put the other ones in a drawer and just rediscovered them while cleaning out the drawer. I've posted a link to the Marbles site below if that helps. Front Sights

The Twilight Zone was ahead of it's time....or maybe later....or maybe somewhere in-between!

All 43 + or - pounds of it. Too much excess room for them to gain inertia with very little cushioning IMO. Lucky it survived the rides. Cardboard boy was not suitable for the weight either. BTW, FedEx left the package on the outer side of the garage door where My gal saw it before backing over it. The front door was only 20' further away.

1,500 - 200gr., lead, .45 ACP bullet in packaging from Natchez shipped FedEx. You'd think they would know how to package heavy items by now....guess not.

I had four soft scrambled w/good cheddar cheese and three pieces of bacon this morning. It was either that or the lobster. The eggs were easier to make.

Delta plane crash in Toronto: All 80 aboard survive, 3 critically injured | Fox News Video of the actual crash. Hard to tell what happened, kind of looks like a very hard landing.

Hmm....I see an Executive Order coming down!

Staged. Look close....looks like a recessed bar type soap niche to me.

Toronto Pearson Airport suffers Delta plane crash, flips upside down, according to reports | Fox News

I think Ryan Preece has some experience flipping at Daytona. NASCAR might want to listen to what he has to say.... Ryan Preece in 2023 at Daytona.

I have to guess that the front tires were off the ground for at least 300', maybe more, before it flipped over. Longest wheelie in NASCAR history!

Spin the cylinder to the empty hole, load one, click, click, click, click, bang. What's so hard about that?

This 1987 crash at Talladega lead to the introduction of the carbonator restrictor plate which limited horsepower to slow the cars down. Bobby Allison cut a right rear tire down while at full speed (about 200++ mph), the car turned sideways, caught air and sailed into the catch fence in front of the main grandstands. It was just a miracle that the 3,000 lb car going 200 mph didn't end up in the grandstands. IIRC, a dozen people got hurt, some seriously and one was blinded by debris.

Interesting finish, yes and congrats to William Byron who, by the way didn't have a mark on his car. Jimmie Johnson actually finished third! However, one of these days, these restricted horsepower engines and large pack racing is going to result in a serious injury to a driver or possibly a spectator. I still advocate for giving all of the horsepower that the engines can put out and slow them down by taking all of that aero crap off of the car. No way are they going to flat foot it around the track then. That would put the race back into the drivers hands and not just who is lucky enough to make it through all of "the big ones".
