If you are just wanting something to play around with at home, that Positive Grid Spark is pretty amazing for the price.

KY governor just said their water tower was destroyed. That screws the entire town for quite some time. Wow.

That is terrible!

Hot dog!!!

Always the ray of sunshine.

Well, little man rode the Suzuki as long as he could stand it. Tonight he joined the club.

I can’t see anything, but also can’t see as well as I once did. What would cause that?

Hello stranger! Haven’t seen you on here in a while.

Thanks. I’ll give those a try.

I've eaten at the one on Charlotte Pike, but didn't realize there was more than one location until we ate at the one on Trinity LN yesterday. An internet search also show one downtown, near the Ryman I wasn't aware of. I don't know what you all think about it, but I really like it. If you like BBQ and haven't ate there, you might want to give it a try.

Seems simple enough. Do it pay well?

So I’ll go shorter. I still find it odd it took 30 years for this problem to show up. Thanks for all the help guys!

Now I do not crimp unless the bullet has a crimp groove. Never needed to. I did notice a couple more of my rounds felt sticky when I cycled them through the action. Maybe I just need to seat them all a touch deeper. What I really don’t understand is the fact I am already shorter than what is called for in the reloading manual, and why this problem hasn’t surfaced before. This is a model 70 Winchester chambered in 280 Remington. (A factory gun; not a custom barrel with a short chamber.). I am using 140 grain Sierra bullets and a Sierra manual. I know bullets can have different ogives between styles and manufacturers. The fact that I am using the load data for this exact bullet should take that possibility off the table.

I did cycle the cartridge several times. Maybe I need to seat a bit deeper to make sure this doesn’t happen again.

No idea. Probably too many.

Another thought. You know how you have to trim rifle brass? We’ll, that brass comes from somewhere. I think the sizing die pulls the neck and stretches it. Would this make the neck thinner over time? I wonder if that might cause me to have less neck tension. Maybe my brass is shot?

They are hand loads. I checked the rest of them and they were a couple of thousandths shorter than what the manual calls for. Without adjusting the seating did, I reloaded the offending round, and it measured the same. I’ve been shooting this load in this same rifle for more than 30 years now. One possibility is that the ammo wallet I carry them in has elastic loops that hole the shells. I’ve noticed this leaves a tacky feel on the ammo. Maybe that was enough to cause a problem? I can’t get it to happen again.

I was unloading my deer rifle after hunting today, and the shell came out but the bullet stayed in the chamber, dumping powder into the chamber and magazine. That does not give one a warm and fuzzy feeling. Investigation ongoing.

Crescent buttplate and 45-70….not a combination for the timid.

Thank you for the information, sir.

6 months? That doesn’t sound promising. Here it’s a 4 year term. Did you not like it?

Tell me more, sir. Hours aren’t so much of an issue for me.

https://www.maconcountychronicle.com/news/1159-wheel-tax-to-increase-meeks-resigns I found out what not to do. You don't write a warrant for a woman breaking into her own house. You'll probably remember Ralph. He was the game warden when we were kids.

I was going to go today, but it was rather windy here. I don't like hunting in the wind. I've already put up one my son killed, and the two I killed. I'd like to get one more to make summer sausage. Maybe try some bologna or pepperoni too. Other than that, the freezer is about full.

I don’t think you’d be trying anyone. Just writing the invitations.
