  1. No problem, now I’m thinking about your lyrics.
  2. @Nile What were the songs and artists that I gave the lyrics to? @LDRIDER, what lyrics do we need to recognize? There's a taste of fear (Hail, hail, hail) When the henchmen call (Hail, hail, hail) Iron fist to tame the land (Hail, hail, hail) Iron fist to claim it all
  3. I haven’t choronographed either yet. At the time load development was done by groups at distance. IF I have a complete burn in 10” there should be about 400 fps. Since I’m getting ready to do load development I’ll shoot them both to find out.
  4. I love my fireball’s. TC, XP-100, and REM 700 Classic. Very economical to shoot and accurate. Mine love 40g pills and H335
  5. Buler, Buler? axe grinder Piledriver Mama says that I never, never mind her
  6. BTDT! A true WTF are you thinking wanting THAT moment! Similar to the customer at a LGS who was doing a PPT transfer on a 45-70 DERRINGER.
  7. I’m looking at replacing/supplementing my Ohler 33 with one. Size and not having to close the range to set up/adjust/pick up from the ground (wind) are BIG reasons along with not shooting the screens. Members of The Sniper’s Hide have been very happy with the ones received, although there have been some teething issues. It has been tested against other chronographs by members and has given consistent readings when compared to other options. I also like the 100 fps to 5000 fps range of the unit. Now to recover from the rear main seal and transmission rebuilds and I will be getting one.
  8. Scotch is my go to, for inexpensive Kirkland isn’t bad. Really prefer Glenfidich 18+, but……. Bourbon just doesn’t do it for me, might be my blood lines.
  9. I’m still using my 20+ year old Ohler 35p. Yes, I’d like to get a new Lab Radar or similar, but since my Ohler is still going strong and I like the printout capability I have not replaced it. Depending on the price, it may be a good deal, but some of the newer chronographs have advantages (like not having to shut down the range to set up).
  10. Actually @Dranoel, it was David Allen Coke’s version Your submission was “Breakthrough “ by Queen I won't be coming home I won't be going anywhere I will guard this post forever Here on the alpine slope, where I did my final stand I shall remain Among the ice and snow that binds me to this mountain
  11. Siena, American Brittany out doing what she loves.
  12. Bar rooms and bedrooms Are just faces and places and names Once for the pleasure And Lord knows once for the pain for all of my brothers and sisters who have given the oath.
  13. Watching this one tonight. A good one with some really funny scenes.
  14. Love Herb Alpert and the TJB! Decompressing from the week with some interesting Metal
  15. @BritinUSA, it is a Different Action Shooting Sport that went that way. I actually shoot USPSA, NRA Silhouette and Muzzleloader Rendezvous for fun and relaxation after MDing two matches a month of the other sport. I guess that I was trying to reemphasize Chalet’s point about keeping things challenging, but not turning off the new shooter. Just because XX match does it this way, doesn’t make it a fit for our club.
  16. @CHA-LEE, You are shining a big spotlight on what I’ve observed over the last 30 years in shooting sports. I’ve watched another sport go from creative and fun stages to a hoser fest because “these were the stages at the World shoot”, forgetting that the World shoot was mostly Top guns and trying to manage an ever increasing number of shooters in a couple days of shooting. It seems that USPSA is moving in the same direction, geared towards the top 10% and high end gear. It is a challenge for those of us shooting Single Stack/Revolver. Not knocking the need to develop a GOOD stage plan, but it has a tendency to scare off the new shooter who is coming out with bare bones Production/SS gear. I don’t expect to be anything more than a “C” class shooter because I’m shooting too many disciplines and M.D.ing two matches a month, but want to grow ALL of the shooting sports
  17. I’m bumping $6.00/gal for Diesel right now. I’ll keep reloading because I’m still able to shoot 2x as much vs. factory. This also takes into account shooting Cowboy loads in 38 Spl and 357 Mag which have been unobtainium for the last couple of years. Until recently, just try and find 20 gauge “Non-Tox” shot shells to hunt with. My Mec 600 Jr and Grabber have had the dust blown off and been brought back into use. Sportsman has Bismuth Upland loads at $50-75 for a box of 25.
  18. @Chills1994, that was the same price as I saw at Sportsman’s Warehouse this morning. They had a better variety available, but “OUCH”!

    Irons

    I’m still seeing them and using them, but….. This is at NMLRA matches and some of the NRA Silhouette matches that don’t allow optics. Oh, also at the various Rendezvous.
  20. @Merlin Orr, How has the Grendel done for you on the 500m Rams? Are you using any special ammo for them? When I was doing load development for my Dad, I was able to get a decent for me group on the static ram at the range. They were all in the heart lung area of the Silhouette. This was running Hornady Black with the 123g ELDM.
  21. Comancheros with John Wayne and Lee Marvin is a classic example. Post Texas Independence and they are using 1892 Winchesters?
