Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. All, I have a decent quantity of MBC 105 Grain TCFP (BHN 12) along with new Starline brass. I'd like to use the bullets for casual range work and was wondering what you think of 3.5 grains of Bullseye powder as a starting load for this bullet. The powder has to be Bullseye and the revolver is an S&W P.C. 627. Thanks!
  2. Hey guys, I'm now at two weeks post-op and all went very well. The diseased hip joint was considerably worse than the surgeon thought and I only had a 2-1/2 day stay in the hospital (the food was excellent). I've been doing a great deal of walking during the last three days and am making great progress with rehab. Other than the incision site, the only area giving me a bit of pain is the knee area as this was very weak prior to the surgery. The narcotics they give you really screw up the G.I. tract... I hope to begin training again in mid-June but will have to come up with a game plan to avoid positions that may compromise the integrity of the hip joint. Thanks again for your advice and enjoy your week!
  3. Thanks for your replies guys. The surgeon told me that I'll feel so much better afterwards as the pain now is unrelenting. You know, I've been living with knee pain for around 6 years now and this surgeon was the only one who was able to immediately determine that the problem was with my hip and not the knee. The Xrays he took very clearly showed that he was correct. The procedure should take around 45 minutes, hospital stay 1-3 days, no driving for 6 weeks or so. I'm a bit concerned about recovery time as my leg muscles aren't very strong due to the pain and stiffness I have. Hopefully, I can recover quickly and return to a normal training regiment.
  4. All, I'm going to have a total hip replacement done soon and was wondering if anyone out there has gone through the same thing. I'm not sure completely as to how the procedure will impact my ability to train and compete once I've fully recovered from the operation. Dislocations are a real concern and I'm told that my range of motion will be restricted accordingly. Thanks in advance for your advice!
