  1. We lost another good one…too soon. I always enjoyed seeing Phil…and we kept bumping into each other…literally. We both kind of just headed towards where we were going and didn’t watch to closely where we were. He told me one such time…watch where I’m going…cause I don’t
  2. If you can get in...and are able...I have great faith in Mayo Clinic at Rochester Minnesota
  3. Winchester 17 Super Mag...works a lot better than 17 HMR. I have shot several groundhogs at various distances with the super mag...most don't even wiggle around
  4. Our insurance in Iowa has taken significant increases the last two years. Some companies have left Iowa all together. Losses all over the country are the reasons given to me. And the insurance companies have re-insurance...and their premiums on that have skyrocketed too. A friend of mine had Pekin insurance for years...and a year or two ago they abruptly left Iowa...without giving him much notice...he had to scramble to find another carrier.
  5. Also...not sure on double trigger models...but on single trigger models...make sure the wood of the stock hasn't swelled up and rubbing on the hammers. I had that happen on a single trigger model. Took a dremel with a sanding drum and took a bit of wood off...end of problem
  6. I like my 10 mm…in a long slide 1911. Don’t know about a short barrel revolver though
  7. I seem to hit better with the longer barrel. My preference is the 24…because I haven’t found a 30. You have to be a bit more careful in some stage props with the longer barrel…and that is the main reason a lot of people opt for the shorter barrels.
  8. I have not ever fired a 500…but I do have a15 inch unported barrel for my Encore handgun in 460. With the Hornady 200 grain load it will wake you up
  9. I haven’t really had any problems with my Ruger mags…at least in my 10-22’s…but I have a Ruger American 22 that I have just 3 or 4 mags that work well in. Others will work…but kind of catch when you are trying to chamber a round. The 3or 4 mags feed smoothly.
  10. Scarlet…it is always a pleasure to see you and Tommy. My continued prayers for both of you
  11. Another great writer will be gone. We have lost too many of the great ones. RIP JT
  12. You’ll just buy more later if you sell these…
  13. Hopefully I will make it this year...but I'm going to procrastinate a while
