  1. I think you have to decide what you want to do with the rifle. 1,000 yd Benchrest, Palma matches, tactical matches, hunting (prairie dogs or elk?), or just a range toy.

    Then decide how much you want to spend.

    If you aren't sure about these things try to find a match near you and go observe, talk to the shooters.

  2. It makes a huge difference with Netflix movies. With the satellite it would give a super grainy/pixilated picture, and have to stop multiple times to buffer. Couldn't watch too many because the usage restrictions would kick in and they'd slow my service down to a crawl. Tried a movie today and it was much better picture quality and no buffer stops.

    Jake, I may have fast internet, but I've watched your El Pres videos. It is I, sir, who hate you! :bow:

  3. I moved out of town a few years ago, and the only thing I have been missing is fast internet. My workplace has fast connections and it spoiled me. Unfortunately the only way out in the sticks was dial up or satellite. Went with sat, but it was still pretty slow and would randomly cut out in high winds (which is about all the time in Wyoming).

    They finally put up a tower where I can get wireless internet, it is faster, cheaper, and doesn't have the bandwidth limitations I had with the satellite. Life is good.

    It is a small thing, but now I don't have to hesitate clicking on a photo thread because I dread the long download time.

  4. Got the LaRue rifle in, only it took so long they changed the name to OBR from OSR. I'll try to post a range report when warmer weather comes along, I have a DPMS .308 I can compare it to. It does look nice, but pretty is as pretty does.

  5. David Tubb loads on a progressive and in one of his books he describes how he modifies his Dillon toolhead and die lock rings so that the dies are not not screwed down tight so they can "float" while not unscrewing. Sounds like a different product to achieve the same thing.

  6. Kids aren't going to mess with a snake naturally, although dogs can get in trouble.

    Dang, when I was a kid a snake was going to be messed with no matter what, even the rattlers.

  7. Holding my 3 yo daughter on my lap this am, listening to her made up dreams, just kind of humming to myself.

    Daughter: "Daddy, I have a headache."

    Me: "Oh, sweetie, I'm so sorry!"

    Daughter: "It came from your song." Delivered with a flat, matter-of-fact tone, like it's a common occurence.

    Cracked me up!
