If you look at this from right to left you could see how they appear for an evening out and then see how they appear in the morning.

I like the “hunt” in quotation marks. I was offered an opportunity to go on a canned “hunt” in Texas by a relative of my wife’s. I politely declined.

Twice when I was a kid I was chased by bulls. The first was a big brown bull. Not sure of breed. I was 6 and just barely beat him to the electric fence. The second was a black angus bull, I think. I was 11 at the time. The bull followed me into the barn. I had made it up a short ladder into the lower hayloft. The bull knocked the support post from under the loft but the loft stayed. In both instances I went into the bull’s territory. First, was a field. Second, was a fenced area the bull was to have been moved from before we started work. A Gaur can run 30 miles per hour. An American Bull can do 15-20 miles per hour. Supposedly Tigers can run 40 mph. But tigers aren’t stupid.

Dry-Wallers Festival?

I rarely keep found brass at the range. I usually buy my once fired brass from US Reloading Supply out of Florida. https://www.usreloadingsupply.com/ Great bunch of folks there.

“A wild ox” is one definition of a Gaur. Tame oxen can be intimidating. I have been up close (100 feet is close enough) to Bison, Water Buffalo and American Oxen and can’t imagine having to contend with a 4000 pound angry gaur.

Option 3 - all brass the same. I have purchased a lot of “Once Fired” brass over the years and most of the time the cartridge brass where I find some oddballs got into the mix is with 9mm and the oddballs are usually .380 ACP cases or 9x18. A couple of times I found .38 Super. Never had an issue with .45 Colt. I have found a few .38 Spl in .357 Mag and vice versa. In picking up range brass I have gotten small pistol primer .45 ACP brass. It seems that I see that more and more. Is that now becoming the norm? I do have a .45 ACP cylinder for my New Vaquero and I will occasionally load .45 ACP, but not much.

When I was a kid there were church choirs that would go around town singing carols. In the early 80’s the company where I worked hired professional singers to sing carols at various facilities. I haven’t seen carolers since.

It sux to the point of I could see myself committing berserker mayhem if someone made me listen to that enough. Oh, and Alpo, you’re welcome. Merry Christmas.

I’m hoping this matches the theme of this thread.

I completely forgot that I bought a set of these a few years ago. I mostly use them on work knives that need a quick sharpening. They’ll do 15, 20 & 30 degree edges. https://a.co/d/f50AgM4

You sure it wasn’t that stupid Barbara Streisand song?

Merry Christmas.

We had a white Christmas this morning but it didn’t snow. It was foggy.

If you ever get a chance to try Pilsudski’s mustard I think you will like it. Now I’m hungry for eggs salad sammiches.

I wonder if she pulled up stakes when West Virginia became a Union state in 1863? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_West_Virginia

I agree.
