I'm sorry to hear about your loss. As you mentioned it will take time to help ease the pain. I too can say nice things about the hospice nurses when my mom died in 2009. They are a true nursing treasure and can say so with some authority. My wife worked as hospice nurse several years ago but had to move onto something else due to the emotional toll it takes on a person. She's a "tough cookie" emotionally because before that she worked in a neonatal intensive care unit for 12 years where the average nurse stays 2 years in that environment. My wife found hospice nursing to be a very rewarding job, but found it was just too much to bear. She is a very special nurse in my eyes since she basically assumed the role of the hospice nurse and direct care giver for my mom at home in her last days and I will always be very grateful for that. I thought at the time she was doing this, how wonderful it was for her to have that hospice experience to be able to help my mom. I thought about the Bible verse Esther 4:14 which says, "And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?†Thanks again to all the hospice nurses out there.

I'm assuming you meant to say a 148gr wc mold as this is the typical weight for that bullet. If so, $150 seems high as most of the new Lyman 4 cavity molds I see run around $90 for the mold itself. Regarding the load, I don't run that bullet for a 357 load but do use it for 38 special. For with a 38 special, 148gr HBWC, I will run anywhere from 3.0 to 4.0 grains of W231 (same as HP-38) depending on which gun I'm using it in. Most of the time I use 3.5 - 3.8 grains.

You can reprogram the truck not to automatically unlock if you wish, from what I understand.

Too cool.

Similar to that most motorcross racers will purposely put a scratch on their new custom paint jobs for their helmets. The theory is that it's good luck and keeps them from having a crash and scratching up their helmet.

Cool.

I saw this on the show as well. I did find this review that took a little glamor off all the uses. While not the best saw or axe it handled the other uses pretty well. Overall I still think it's a neat multi-tool. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5NNQDBz1dw

Another vote for the S&W 500.

My favorite line in the article. "It leads me to believe that it's not about the flag," she told FoxNews.com. "Certain elements cannot accept Barack Obama as president."

I assume you asking about overall length since you mentioned calipers. If so, I usually see a float around a 0.010" tolerance. Just measure some factory loads and it'll make you feel better.

I bet the lid of that opened can is probably sharp enough to cut a person.

The targets are marked with "7 yards"

Nice write up and pictures. You didn't mention which one was your favorite overall (other than the P290's sights).

Yep...that's what the ad seems to indicate. Seriously though I think Dave's on the right track, I think it's going to be a subcompact M&P line.

Yea. I'm watching this one too.

As Robert said, sounds like you would be putting yourself in prison. I would move before I put up a fence like that. Very likely to make someone say, "with that fence, they must have something valuable in there...I believe I might just need to find out what it is". Even the cheapest bolt cutters go through chain link like butter. As Will said, dogs have to be the next line of defense.

Not sure what to say.

Are you able to tolerate riding a bike? If so, it's a great way to burn calories and improve your cardio.

Me too.

That was my thoughts as well.

Interesting, what kind of backstop are you using?

444

Very nice!

You guys talking pistol or rifle?

Odd. Just got another email from Apex now stating they sent me the wrong spring and will send me another. They do still recommend upgrading to the new style sear housing.
