Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. et tu Kz45. Same thing here, just my bad for not changing springs when I should have.
  2. I have always heard in the stage briefing, "don't shoot my barrel". Not that it hasn't happened on occasion, just more fuel for comments from the peanut gallery.
  3. however, I am still just one of the mindless D masses, but a whole new year with only one way to go!
  4. I pull a 5th wheel for both just weekend gettaways and matches where overnight is necessary. Usually look up a campground in the vicinity, but dry camp is also a possibility. The major benefit for me besides some cost savings on room/meals, is the fact that I set up the bed in our RV to my comfort so I get to sleep in my own bed every night rather than fight whatever retrograde abomination of a facsimily of a mattress which may be in a given motel room that I probably would not want to shine an alternate light source in.
  5. My carry gun is my competition gun, and have found the Truglo TFO (tritium fiber optic) work fine for as well as I can shoot.
  6. Have heard Hornady One-shot case lube is also a convenient way to slick 'em up with out making more mess.
  7. ok, deep breath, <rant on> Family around me for the most part is ok. Holidays in and around themselves are an interruption to my routine, but other than that, ok. However, put the two together, and I am wishing I had dug that hole to crawl into and pull over myself, back in September when the ground was thawed. Dad's anxiety around the holidays is off the scale since Mom passed away. MIL is coming in for two weeks, and according to BIL who lives closer to her, she can't be left alone anymore (physically fragile). Daughter, my dear Daughter, at 38 has revived the delightful passtime of drinking and driving, consequently totalling her car. Thank God she didn't hurt anyone else. Now my anxiety ridden Father has fronted her the money for a new car. I mean what the H E double toothpicks! I am so ashamed of what she has done (which is made worse by my being an alcoholic with 20 years of sobriety), and how she sleazed my Father into bailing her out, I can't speak to her. Now we have to pile this bunch in a room to make nice for Xmas? Oh, by the way, the stove crapped out yesterday too, and after Xmas shopping sucked up the paycheck, I guess I will be putting Xmas dinner on the flipping barbeque grill in the snow. Hopefully, I will be able to turn the rant off by the time MIL leaves in 2 weeks. Crud, just crud, and no local USPSA matches till April. Do I have the only family who always has to go off the deep end from Thanksgiving till Christmas?
  8. That's another thing, 46 minutes of commercials before the previews start at the movies. Wait, didn't I just pay 8 bucks to see a movie and now I get commercials for cell phones, cars, soft drinks and whatever else they feel like foisting upon us. Probably one of the reason I don't go to the movies as much any more. A PPV movie with my local cable provider runs about 7 to 10 bucks. Any movie on PPV has already come out on DVD around here, and can be picked up for 3 bucks or so at the vid. shop. A long time ago when I was in grad school, a theory was floating around that 50% of the population was incapable of abstract thought. The older I get, the more I want to revise that percentage upward.
  9. +1 cause I am old and feeble minded.
  10. waiting with bated breath myself. Have the same powder, and Berrys 200gr plated SWC I am wanting to try out, but no chrony yet so would really like to see if any others have played with these toys. bump.
  11. Dunno what all this big hassle is with a vibraprime. 3 of 'em in my local gunshop last time I looked. (whistling at the ceiling)
